please dont anybody take this the wrong way ok, but i was just wondering if anybody here bothered to even just shoot an email to Carlo Pagulayan at least informing him that you guys are gonna use his work and manip someone else's face on it?
i've conversed with aspiring/ professional comic book artists before (in fact i'm sitting next to a couple right now), and based on those conversations the artists do feel offended when people do something like this, arguments range from intellectual property rights issues to simply respecting the artist. they feel "violated" for lack of a better word. they said they slaved over a particular piece, so much more effort poured onto it versus someone just pointing a camera and clicking away. a bit more respect for work like these they said would be so much more appreciated specially if its coming from mutual fans.
that's all. i just noticed that lots of you folks were knockin someone and although i know you guys were knockin him due to a particular reason, he does have a point from another point of view.
PS: btw, if anyone still wants to get in touch with the artist whose work this manip is based on, you can go to his website at http://www.carlopagulayan.com

I hope they also agree, I never thought about it like that but he's right. A painting is a lot different than a photo.
I hope the other mods agree as well.
Pardon the long respons.
Well, in my opinion, and apparently the laws, if it is not being used for profit then there is no issue. Similar to the use of copyrighted music. It is fine as long as what you use it for is never used for financial profit.
Also when you put these things out on the net you open your self and your art or music or whatever up to these things. That is why some places code their images and what not so that you are unable to remove them or copy them from the site. This is more or less the only way that people can say hey I don't want you to do this, and actually prevent them from doing so.
Personally I produce a lot of art work and I have no problem with others using them for manips and what not. I also know that others do. They should then take precautions to prevent this. Otherwise they should simply be aware that by placing said work on the net they make it available for these types of things. You put an image on the net then chances are you are aware that people can simply right click 'save image as' and what not.
If you don't want this to be done with your work then you do things to prevent it.
We are not talking about taking peoples work and claiming it as our own. That would be a clear cut moral and legal issue. Manips clearly do not fall under this as they are ‘Manips’ which by definition are the 'manipulation' of other images. They are not inherently original. If the creator of the manip wanted it to use their own work as the starting point of the manip, well that is their choice and also rather pointless as if they start with their own work, why wouldn't they just have done that work the way they will do it in the manip. That would be doing the work twice with one image instead of doing it once with one image. Or twice with two images.
The point is that it is generally understood and associated that manips use reference/route material. As such said route material is not being subject to claims of fraudulent originality.
These route pieces are made available by the true creators by placing them on the net. Unless precautions are taken to ensure other wise they assume acceptance that said work can be saved to someone else’s computer and used as they like, so long as it is not claimed as their own.
The best way to be cautious if you must is to simply credit the source.
Also if we start seeking permission to use every piece that we do n our manips, then we now must seek permission of the people who are in the photographs that we use as well as the people who take them, as photos are prized by the photographers as their work as much as art is by artists. Also ones likeness is treated the same way, especially by celebrities.
This would mean that we would have to go and seek permission to use Rouths likeness and any photo's we wish to use, similarly with Welling and Reeve, or anyone else. This is why these things are simply available on the net, unless the creator states and takes measures otherwise. That may sound presumptuous but such is the way things are. It is also, as I have said, why said precautions are available.
Again if one is to take images, photos and or artwork and use them for a news site or report that is a different topic as it fall's under the category of claiming originality. Using someone else’s scoop or source as if it your own to claim as a head line.
If an artist truly has a problem with this type of thing then it is up to them to take the precautions and steps provided by the law and the tools that they have access to if they wish to use the net and let their work into that world. It is up to us too follow and respect those restrictions when they are in place.
Otherwise these things are open to the public.

I totally disagree with every word that you wrote here.
Copyright is implicit upon creation of a work. I'm not an entertainment lawyer or anything, but I did take a class on entertainment law at school.
I believe that, at least technically, manipping is illegal since you are modifying copyright protected images without permission. Although I don't think anyone will actually prosecute, however.
Given the artist in question may not want his work being altered, I would think that people might respect his wishes as much as they respect his work.

dude, its all about being respectful, about asking permission even if the work was given away freely. not a single penny need to be involved to show respect. obviously no artist would post their work on the net freely if their purpose is to make a buck, they're all about sharing their talents. this is just direct feedback from aspiring artists who are mutually superhero fans. i was browsing the boards and they were with me talking. they were admiring the work Carlo Pagulayan has done and how far he has come, conversation turned to the work he posted on the K-Site and i showed the version posted in this thread. then we spotted Wilde's work. i even commented that it looked like a really seamless manip, but looking at their faces suffice it to say the job wasnt exactly appreciated. that's when they asked if Carlo was ok with all this. we read the posts before and after the manip and obviously the idea wasnt even brought up. a mini debate ensued with me going to the length of playing devil's advocate and asking them what's the difference between a manip done on a screencap or promotional photograph and an artwork. that's when they said all the stuff about effort, about pouring their heart out onto the medium and all that.
i know you guys didnt mean anything bad about the manip, and they know that. its just that in speaking their mind, they do feel ripped off when someone goes about manipping away without even posting a note saying "if the artist dont mind" disclaimer. reading the posts immediately after Carlo's work it did look like all the members here cared about was to find the nicest Superman photograph and sticking someone elses face on it without even considering the source material. they're not killjoys (oh hell far from it), but they are aspiring artists struggling to get their talent recognized, and once upon a time, Carlo was just like them. so i do give them credit as being in a unique situation as Carlo once was, and thus a sentiment that Carlo might feel if he saw what folks has done with his work.

Technically, the artist made a painting of a character who is copyrighted by DC Comics/Time Warner.
In truth, I'm not terribly sure the artist would be too thrilled about his work being manipped (my guess is that he wouldn't). But I don't think he's got much of a legal leg to stand on since neither the original work nor the manip itself are being used for any sort of financial profit.
Besides, arguing about a manip of a "copyrighted" painting which is a reproduction of a trademarked character -- which the artist may or may not have received permission to use, and an actor whose likeness he may or may not have received permission to use -- is silly. I understand that some Wellingites are upset, but until the artist makes a personal plea not to use that image for a manip on a fanboy website, give it a rest.

Yes it is implicit when created. (As such, actual 'copyrights' are essentially a waste of time and money. I have delt with this through the publication of my own work in comics aswell as the creation and distribution of magic effects that I have created.) But the issue of copyright infringment only comes into pla when said alterations are used for prfit or claimed as origional by the second party.

Yes I agree with the respect and aknowledgement of the artist. This strkes true with me as I am an artist. But to seak permission as I had said would encompus obtaining the permission of any photographers who's photos you use aswell as the individuals represented in the photos, on top of the artist permission.
So for one manip using one piece of art of Superman, and one photo of Routh, you would be inclined to get the permission of the artist, of DC for likeness/character use, the photographer, and Brandon Routh,again for likeness.
That's just one manip, buy one person. Now if someone wishes to alter that manip, well you can see the complications that develope.
Also just imagine the number of requests that Routh, WB, DC, and the artist would recieve based on the number of manips on this site alone. You might think it becomes alot to keep asking all those people, but it would be even more for the people who are being asked would have to deal with based on shear numbers alone.
And lets not even think about the effort and inapropriatness that would be encompassed when haveing all the individuals who wish to use the recently departed Mr. Reeve's likness asking his widow for permission. I'm sure she doesn't mind, but dealing with all the requests would betoo much for anyone, let alone someone in her position.
But that is an argument of practicality. If we are to focus on respect then all that is needed is the curtousy of aknowledgment to your source material. This is done when one alters someone elses manip, but is far more appropriate to be done fwith focus on the aknowledgeing of the origional artists.
On a side note, when and if I see this type of thing done with my own work, I personally take it as a compliment and it makes me feel proud of my work. I am also very aware of two things when observing a manip. One, there is no claiming of originality, they are not stealing my work, and definately not claiming it as their own, and if they re, well then we get into issues, legal and otherwise. Two, the manip is not the posting of my art work. It is not like they are taking my work putting anothers head on it and essentialliy mocking my work, or posting the manip as if it is my work and what I intended of my work. So it is not neccisarily ment as an improvment either.

I am aware that my spelling, and most likely grammar, is not the greatest. However when I ma writing somethig with any determination or passion that is my focus, not looking up how to spell 'determination.' Also artist's are least of all known for their english. Even writers. Joseph Conrad wouldn't even let college students see the writing in his first drafts as it was atrocious (sp).
But yes my focus is, fortunatly, not on teaching or correcting english. Also I hope that was not ment as your rebutle, as I have no idea if you agree, or even care, or are mearly being observent.

There are whole threads with the discussion and analysis of this.
Infact it was by reading and discussing there, combined with the portrayal that Reeves provided that convinced me otherwise. Just realize that there are some actors who never look to be that same person in different role. And yes I am talking about without the assisstance of make-up.

Yes, but it seems that every thing you post, or atleast a LARG quantity of it, is either a joke, irrelevant, or complaining. And yes I am aware that you are just voicing your oppinion of Routh, but to do it incesently, and to have it be apparent as an undelying tone and implied in most of everything you post is complaining and excessive is all.
Some people are just sick of all the complaints that people do post about Welling and or Routh. I also am very aware that not all suporters of both actors are always doing this, but the ones that do, rudely or calmly, but insecently, ruin the threads for everyone as it is way beyond reasonable now.

Couldn't agree more.
Legal questions shouldn't be even brought into the equation. Manipping is a hobby, a craft, a form of comedy and entertainment... I've been manipping for my own personal amusement for a while now, and then I brought my skill (if you will) to the Hype. We're not getting paid to do this. We do it to get a general peek into "what might be" if said situation ever came to fruit. Artists that get paid to do their work (such as the Welling painting- made by a kid who does work for Marvel, Dark Horse, etc) shouldnt be *****ing. They should take it as a compliment that their work was the best possible work that we as manippers could find to bring another perspective to life.

I'm not sensitive and I don't take things too seriously. But, like gdw said, nearly everything you post is unnecessary. Even your signature is ridiculous (and way too big, I might add.) Yes, there is a slight reddish tinge on the collar of the shirt. Did I notice it when I made it? Yes, I did. But I didn't think anyone would be ridiculous enough to make a bad joke about it or complain about it. And you can claim i'm too sensitive, or what not, but you still need to

Yes, but it seems that every thing you post, or atleast a LARG quantity of it, is either a joke, irrelevant, or complaining. And yes I am aware that you are just voicing your oppinion of Routh, but to do it incesently, and to have it be apparent as an undelying tone and implied in most of everything you post is complaining and excessive is all.
Some people are just sick of all the complaints that people do post about Welling and or Routh. I also am very aware that not all suporters of both actors are always doing this, but the ones that do, rudely or calmly, but insecently, ruin the threads for everyone as it is way beyond reasonable now.
ok thank you for being reasonable.
first of all no one should take offence to the jokes casue i didn't bring up any studip issue that we consider taboo here.
with regards to my recent post about his sexual. all i was try to convey was the sentiments of people i know of that would automatically see this movie in a diffrent light if as i sadi before news headlines said soomething taboo about superman. from where i am from i can bet on my life parents won't want their kids to see the movie. Not everybody on this plaent is a progressive think or thinks outside the box.
so what do i get, people bash me, say i am puttign up antigay qutotes. i have said it time and time agian i don't give a crap. the thing i give a crap is i don't liek the casting of routh. that doesn't mean i won't watch the movie. its a free world we don't have to agree that he look sthe part or singer made the right choice at this time. all we have agree is on 2 things when the movie comes out,
1) singer made a great or not movie
2) Routh perfomed well or not.
that is as simple as it is, like i said in another thread. i may never like roth and may never full accept hi m as superman. but if he deliever a spectacular performance. i will give him is due respect for that. ;)
if anyone wants to take the jokes i have said seirously the can go ahead. i won't stress myself with it.

I'm not sensitive and I don't take things too seriously. But, like gdw said, nearly everything you post is unnecessary. Even your signature is ridiculous (and way too big, I might add.) Yes, there is a slight reddish tinge on the collar of the shirt. Did I notice it when I made it? Yes, I did. But I didn't think anyone would be ridiculous enough to make a bad joke about it or complain about it. And you can claim i'm too sensitive, or what not, but you still need to

ye sits a bad joke, but come on it is a joke and that is what it is meant to be. the compalin and say its a bad joke. a
now as for my signature, it still says. i don't have to change it for anyone or anything. just becasue routh was cast, doesn't mean i have to follow everyone else. ;)

dude don't get me started this morning, how can i be rude when i am commenting on a funny thing i notice on the collar of a manip shirt, or the fact that routh looks liek and evil superman in another manip. its all fun and games until people start taking **** too seriously. it was a joke, nothing rude about it. ;)Ok but thats not what it sounded like to me and I have seen a few of your posts here and in other threads and they are not funny at all but have a underlining point that is most of the time just not needed. You could have asked Puck what the color on the collar was,, That joke was just rude becouse of the underlining meaning... So please just try and be nice in the future you dont have to agree just dont be RUDE about it.

;)I thought it was a lighting effect myself. Im not bashing you Thunder just trying to tell you if you want to have a nice conversation with peeps going about it the way you do,, Well you will be defending yourself a lot.
You make some decent points, but still the issue remains that you mostly post jokes and always find a way to bring up 'your oppinion' of Routh, relevant or not.
And that is just it. You don't seem to make any relevant contributions to the discussions unless they are focused on defending your actions.
I admit that some are harsh in their condeming of you and others, but you are very aware of the reactions your actions tend to warrent. If you wish to continue with them you already the concequences that follow. Simply when you do one thing you already know that others will do another in response. As you are already aware of what will come, there is no reason for you to constantly argue about it. If you make the choice to limit your posts to jokes and irrelevent comments and discussions then so be it, that is your choice. But you make that choice fully aware of the way in which others have and will continue to chose to react to it.
As for your sig you are half right. If requested by a mod then you will have to change it for someone.
Just try not to find a way to bring up that you don't like Routh being cast in every post of yours that is not some off topic joke. We are all very aware of that fact already. You don't need to keep saying it, and almost in the same words too, every time. Your sig is also more then enough to remind us of your oppinions. Not that we need remining of them. As I said we are fully aware of how you feel about the casting.

again thank you for been reasonable and i rest my case.
Oh and just to clarify I didn't find anything wrong with the joke. It mad me snicker at best, but not out of line. It was, to me at least, that it was just yet another joke instead of a purposeful post is all.
again thank you for been reasonable and i rest my case.

Take a look at this image. I flipped it back to the way it was originally. You can compare. All i did is put some weight in the face. Once he bulks up, his face will look wider. Also, the color of the eyes changes his face completely.
You still definitely changed his jawline, something that won't change with bulking up. It took me a little while to put my finger on it but eventually I found it - in the original pic, the line that makes up the back of his jaw is vertical, in your manip, it slants outwards, definitely giving his jaw more width. He certainly looks more like Superman in your manip, but he won't look like that from bulking up.
That said, you COULD achieve this effect with prosthetics, I'm certain. A very artfully sculpted enhancement to the back of the jaw by talented make-up artists could be done. I'm talking Rick Baker quality. I think going that extra mile to make him look *just right* as Supes would be worth it, but they'll surely not bother, nor would the idea have even occurred to them. Blue eyes (Which they'd better give him) and a thicker neck will have to do, and he'll look pretty good if that's all they do, but the enhanced jaw would be the icing on the cake.
Jude Law had a fake jaw in AI. Obviously it's meant to look fake and plastic like the whole character, but you could do it realistically with pores, realistic paintjob etc. Like I said, Rick Baker quality.

Whatever happened to Kal-L?
Kal departed these boards about a week or so after the announcement of Routh. NOT becuase he wasn't happy with the casting decision and NOT because Cavielzel didn't get it. Kal was fed up with the way things had been going around here with certain individuals (who shall remain nameless) and with the fact that some of his complaints fell upon deaf ears.
He told me he will still keep in contact with me and pop in and out every so often, but he just has a lot going on in his real life and doesn't really have much time to devote here, especially when he's not getting much satisfaction from it.
I do miss him.
It was always easy to find his posts

no matter who he pissed off.

he drew one? where?
Rage is that a Drawing of Reeve? Wow. And I've sepcialised in portraits for some time. That is an amazing work and resemblance.
There is something off with the eyes that I just can't put my finger on...that and the hair texture is just not right. Everything could be sharper too...but I'm not that great a painter and working with a mouse in photoshop only makes things harder :rolleyes: ...BUT DAMN IT...this had to be good for Chris!!!
Thanks for the kind words. Nice to hear it looks like a photo, maybe I am just overly critical of it because I can see all the errors right away.
Rage
I like the soft look of the hair. It just seems to help with the look. Hair was always the thing I struggled with the most. As for the eyes I would try playing with the position they may need to be just a tad bigger so as to help lessen the gap between them without bringing they eyes themselves closer together and making him cross eyed. But that's just if you really can't leave good alone so to speak. But then again I know where your coming from.
So what was the medium for that? You mentioned paint. I assumed it was graphite.
Photoshop actually. I did a sketch of him in pencil. Scanned it in. Then started to paint thick on it like I would with oils. Once I had a decent underpainting, I used the filter paintdobs to give it a slight "texture"...then did all the final touches with the damned airbrush tool...and that took the most time.
Rage
Ah, so all the tonal work was on Photoshop? Either way the resemblance is uncanny and even for doing the touchups in shop it is amazing. That kind of work In PS is hard and agonizing. Great job.

So now do you think he will make a good Superman?,, Lolactually, i was trying to be positive. haha.
i also think your manip proves that he just doesn't have the features to be Superman, because everything in that manip is perfect, except the one thing that stands out are Routh's non-Superman features.
but, you know, i'm open-minded. at this point, i don't like him, but i understand that i've only a few pictures to base my opinion on, so i'll give him a chance just like everyone else. i'm just a little dissapointed that i have to "wait and give the guy a chance" rather than be excited from the beginning.
which reminds me, Routh's episode of Will & Grace is on today at 6pm. So I'll watch it, see him live action, and maybe get a better sense of him.

Thanx, I based it off of the Rocketeer poster, and the picture of Spacey is from Google image search, I just made him bald. As for the center pic of Superman it very well could be yours, I found it on my computer while making the poster, and I know it was originally from here and I had saved it, but the picture didn't have a signature, and also the S is Rage's S. Really the picture is a composite of a whole bunch of manips from here mixed with real pictures from the internet. LIke I have Puck's Clark Kent, apparently your Superman, whats his name's Superman flying in the back (soon to be replaced by your manip, :D) Rage's S, mixed with pictures of Spacey and Lilly, and the Daily Planet just for fun.

Nice Reeve tribute.
Hey...I take that as a compliment dude!! If people think that all I did was use a filter over a likeness...that is kick@ss!! I actually bastardized a technique used by Drew Struzan (below)
http://www.elobelisco.net/struzan/jpg/drew85.jpg
Where he traces ( :rolleyes: ) the image on to canvas...then paints over it with thin to thick then tightens it up with highlights and detail at the end with pencil crayons... Unfortunatley...I can't tighten it up as crisp as I would have liked (damn airbrush tool!!) which might ad to the whole "filter" look...The head is a touch too fat and I just couldn't nail the eyes...a buddy thinks they look like Namor's eyes :D
But thanks for thinking its a picture with a filter.

KAZYUA... The thing is...I am a professional graphic artist/designer and professional comic book artist... This is not a hobby...this is what I do for a living...so it being that close is a testament to my work and training (props to the Joe Kubert School!) and ultimately...a compliment. :D
By the way...I really liked your painting of Reeve. I assume that because you used that sky background that it's not officially allowed to compete in the tribute contest...Which is too bad. It is a really good painting.

With the insertion of the "rolling eyes" smilie, I assume you don't approve of this technique. I myself don't ordinarily trace a picture that I want to work on, but have occasionaly done it to get proportions right (and if it guarenteed that my work would wind up looking like Struzan's, I would do it more often). I don't feel that it is a big "no-no" to do it, especialy for when it is being done to show someone known for a movie poster.

Just the opposite. Most people would look down on tracing...but I was taught by my one of my profs at JKS...if you know you can draw it just as good but it will save you the time to trace...trace it...because in art...time is money. Infact...I traced the Reeve head on my tribute piece...then scanned it in to photoshop and worked on that... I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH TRACING...but some people do look down on it.

Hey Rage, you're a proffessional comic book artist? That's awesome! What books have you worked on? I interned at DC comics this past summer in the pre-press dept. It was AMAZING to be able to handle actual artwork, scan it, touch it up, put interiors together, etc. I also got to hang out with the likes of Mike Carlin and Ivan Cohen. I'm graduating college this year and trying to get back to New York to see if I can work there full time, although my post college plans aren't set in stone by any means. Thinking about going to Italy to study art sometime in the near future. I'd love to see more of your work!

Not really a photomanipulation, but a peice I just finished for the Christopher Reeve Fan Art Contest...kinda weird...drawing Chris Reeve instead of pasting someone else's face over his :rolleyes: Had fun doing it...but took a long time.

Worked on books like X-man, Nightwing and Wolverine doing some inking(ghosting for someone else and doing some background inks too) Did some work in indi projects like Tommy Gunn (ghosting again)
Currently drawing (pencils, inks and computer colouring) a series called Kid Krusaders. Its a cartoony book that deals with childrens issues like abuse, bullying and internet luring so far...It's not mainstream...but I get paid way better than i would at Marvel or DC...and the work is easier :D Can't beat that!

And as you can see...there is still some Superman leaking into the comic with the reveal and the "Supermanesque" comic book cover...so I have some fun with it.

KAZYUA... The thing is...I am a professional graphic artist/designer and professional comic book artist... This is not a hobby...this is what I do for a living...so it being that close is a testament to my work and training (props to the Joe Kubert School!) and ultimately...a compliment. :D
By the way...I really liked your painting of Reeve. I assume that because you used that sky background that it's not officially allowed to compete in the tribute contest...Which is too bad. It is a really good painting.
RageThx I dont mind not being allowed to compete I never win anything anyways;)
I would love to be a pro but its so hard to break into the business I dont even try:( www.comicstofilm.com has a bunch of my manips and art my tag there is KAZ, I dont upload my best art couse it can be stolen, Anywho if you would like to check it out and tell me what you think I would like to hear what tips a pro would have for me.

Update: The Routh drawing will be started on tomorrow, not December. I can post up some of the guy's recent drawings that are not on his website if anyone is curious as to how good/bad he is.

I was thinking the same thing, but didn't wanna say anything.
Puts a whole new spin on Arnold and Willis.
