Of course i would never steal an art

Tracing PICTURES is a-ok in my book. Poses are hard. Proportions are hard. Ref images for a sketch is totally fine. I trace movie scenes a bunch just so I can get the feel of drawing a character in that environment, with that sort of lighting or pose.

Same, hands are hard to draw and prepositions can be hard at times too.
I mainly do it with bases so that I actually have something to work with, whenever I post something that uses a base I always have put the credits in to avoid people calling me out that "I traced someone else's art"- even with drawing that use reference's, I'll add the artist name/tag in the bio-
