Hi stranger,

I am wc6ff, a self-taught artist. Before you report or flag me on FA or on any other social platform or imageboard for AI violation, please consider reading the following disclosure.

1.I don't use AI generation, AI assistance, or AI enhancement in my drawings. All my works are drawn by hand in Krita with standard Krita brushes. I also use GIMP for some post-editing, especially the Cartoon filter (https://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/plug-in-cartoon.html).

2. You can technically say that I "copy" AI-ish styles for my drawings. I do this simply because I find those styles appealing. I do not do any commissions, requests, or collabs; I do not receive any payments or donations; and I do not have any crowdfunding accounts. So, shortly, I do not earn anything from what I'm doing.

3. What I do is study AI-generated works and also use those as references for my own works. I do not do paintovers or tracing. For the most platforms this should still be allowed. I have also recieved some clarifications from FA Administration. Basically, it is forbidden to process your image in whole or any part of it with any AI generation or AI enhancing tool. Paintover and tracing of AI images is also prohibited. This all should mean that I'm not violating the AI upload policy.

4. As a proof of paragraph 1, I have a Google Drive account where I upload all .kra source files. The link is available here: (https://drive.google.com/drive/fold.....E6zYfXmxuMWmuw). In addition to that I will try to record timelapses of my drawings. For now it will be recorded with Krita Record Docker, meaning that only my canvas is recorded. If necessary, I can do recording with OBS so that everything is visible (references, docks, filters, other pop-up windows). Timelapse will be uploaded to the same folder where corresponding .kra file is located.

5. I am always open to all sorts of questions. If you want to get additional proof or anything else from my side, feel free to contact me and we can arrange something. Note that if this causes me too much fuss, I might change or revoke this paragraph.

6. I have tried to feed my work into publicly available AI-detection services; those mostly show 80-99% probability of my drawing being AI-generated, which makes them (IMHO) completely unreliable in those kinds of tasks.

7. For people who want to upload my stuff to other platforms or imageboards. First, please check that my work does not violate the upload policies of the platform where you want to upload it. Second, please include the reference to this disclosure (if possible) in the description of the image.

8. I do not own any OCs. I do funart and generic character designs I come up with in the process of drawing. If I do a drawing of another person's OC, I get permission from that person to do so.

9. I might extend this disclosure with more paragraphs if needed.

Thank you for spending time on reading this. This is much appreciated.
