Ross: going to sites that sells fake merch of his art those sites: *baby I'm not even here, I'm hallucination* * *gone* *

Might be easier to make RossDraws stickers that people could use for their phone cases or anything else they would want to apply it to. Could even make decals for car windows as well. If you really want to be crazy, have a vinyl car wrap with RossDraws prints. lol.

sticker on a car definitely a good idea

Art thieves: We're going to steal your ideas and make money off them Ross: That sounds like a good idea. I'm writing that one down. Art thieves: ...wait

I love how people decide not to put in all the hard work the original artists did and just steal others work. Great advice if you wanna be a horrible human being.

You know your fake merch is bad when he rips it off like a female anime protagonist

just love how Stella and Ross are also giving compliments of these stolen merch while simultaneously calling them out

Its disgusting how people steal arts tho... my comic post was stolen one day.. and.. i was gloomy all day

This video is GENIUS! Fact is, it is impossible to take down every single company that steals artists merch. Art thieves have no pride. I literally had my own works stolen despite a large watermark on it lol. But this video is pure gold as it shows fans that buying from the official source has it's obvious perks and give a chuckle in the process as well lol.

A genuine Rossdraws blanket would be so awesome to buy for real! This whole video made me laugh so hard as an artist whose art got stolen before, you actually handled it really well and it was very amusing to end it with a "gonna send the cease and desist" so casually while getting ideas for new merch. You're really an inspiration Also, I'm very satisfied to know I'm not the only one who never posts the High-resolution version of finished works online because it's such an easy way for thieves to take that art, and then you have to potentially deal with the drama over the stolen Hi-Res artwork

Stronk Ross ripping the shirt like an anime protagonist

THIS IS A COOL CONCEPT HAHAHA

I met Ross for like 5 min at NYCC and he is a sweetheart of a human being for anyone who couldn't already tell lol

I appreciate how calmly you’re reacting to all this! Some people are just shameless

Devaintart printshop has been known to leak source print files and not take any responsibility or compensate artist for their mistake. It's smart for Ross to do high res prints in house instead.

The puzzle sounds like good idea actually, hell I bet there's a bootleg Ross draws puzzle cube (rubix cube) out there somewhere.

Ross, ideas for official merch: headphones with nima and faye notebooks with any of the nimaverse characters backpacks, sling bags, etc

Can you talk more about the part where you said you don't post the highest quality of your artwork online? Maybe on another vid? Like how do we post something online that's not the highest quality but still looks good in a sense (good in a way that it's not getting pixelated or anything). What's the best middleground size to upload on social media?

I recommend scaling your images down by AT LEAST 40% and saving as jpg (unless you need your image to retain transparency) for sharing on web. It also depends on how large your artwork usually is so I recommend messing around with various sizes until you find what looks good enough for you. For reference, my original files are usually around 3000x4500, and the ones I share online are 1200x1700. If you find that resizing makes your images too blurry, you could try editing it slightly. Personally I like to use CSP's sharpening filters to bring out the details more. Hopefully this is at least a little useful for you!

I think blankets will be fun! Especially if you make an art just for the blanket

As a fellow artist I feel you and I would always rather have the real thing, not some ripped off merch. And supporting artists you love is good because it’s how we make a living, at least that’s the dream.

As much as I hate art thieves, this video is great and a good way to address these bootleg products

Of course its not cool, but at least they are not trying to pass as the artist. They probably sell stuff of other artists too, not just from him. At least his work is getting out there.

Ross: i never make these sweaters again. Me: was patiently waiting there was a restock 🥺

I want an official Ross draws blanket pls 😫 I will definitely use it everyday it's always cold in my house so definitely needed. Love ya ross🥰😊🤗

This is why I mostly keep my art away from DeviantArt, and other sites, to avoid theft. All tho it's Hilarious how the knock-offs puff put of existence. Sadly since they sent you the package they can't hide cause of addresses and many other things involved. Stella better get them all!!!! Im rooting for her. Ross if you read please reply 😂

A lot of the addresses are warehouses might not be owned by them and they could be renting or using a fake front of house. I think this is why it’s so hard to prosecute because they can just up and disappear like they never existed. 🤭

Ross i love you even more with this kind of video, instead of getting angry you just laugh at them, this is so precious you're so kind and fun

If people steal art from any show they can have copyright on their store.

Surprise he's taking it pretty well, thought he was gonna be like "I will not allow this, get my lawyer on the phone!" lol

ngl i watched some of ur videos and i just absorved it since u explain so well that without trying it a couple of times my art works gone so much better without even practicing the style

A cool video idea for you would be to do a video on tips on making your own art merch! I would love to see a video where you expand on the pantone book tip you gave here.

This video is awesome. I do know there's alot of work producing a set of merch, still I learned alot from this video. ❤

Yes to the blanket idea. Glad to support you Ross!

I would pay big money for a ring tone of Stella saying " hello!" The way she does

Love this channel❤❤❤❤

I would love an official vibrant Ross Draws blanket!!🤩🤩That would be amazing!

I would so buy a nima blanket if you ever made one I love your art

I'm so tired of the thieves. I love your outlook to it all.

I had no sound on and used auto cc and you dont know how often the auto cc said something other then ross draws

Fun video Ross! , that poor shirt you destroyed XD

The way he ripped that shirt …I’m in love

This was too funny! 🤣

Best way to deter them... the artist buys the merch

@@SynthLizard8 its a bit of friendly humour as they deleted the accounts when the artist ordered from them. Not meant as sarcastic in any way 🙂

Mass produced hoodies sell for 60€ (which is around $67 so not too far from your hoodie). And as I said, they're mass produced, without being hand dyed and all. $75 (which would be around 66€ then) is a really good price for a well made hoodie. Also, when it comes to supporting artists we really like, the price is very often the right one. I ordered a portrait of my cat not too long ago at only $40. It's the price the artist gave, but I still felt a bit bad because I really like her art style and she deserves so much more.

okay, but, please do an official jigsaw puzzle that sounds so fun

I hate it, I work in some "print on demand" sites, 100% trustworthy , I DONT UPLOAD High res designs on my social media, and even doing that people still manage to steal my works. I found them on Aliexpress, and sites alike, I dont get HOW they manage to get them, I dont know if they hack the "print on demand" sites to get the High res file or they print the merch with the low res image from my social media, but either way is disgusting, they sell something is not their and a lot of times they even modify the original design. It`s a shame that a lot of stores dont control these things like they should. . . . The best way to fight this is informing your fans and followers about the official merch u sell and where u sell it, like u do on this video.

i want ross draws blanket and plushies too, maybe pillow cases? a whole slumber party for ross draws :)

OMG I just realized Instagram was probably helping me by blurring your artworks a little when you post it than the original 😅

Love you Ross💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Every master piece has its own cheap copy

Yeah if Ross made a Nima blanket i would 💰💰💰 💳💳

That phone case was fly not gonna lie. If you ever make some, I'd cop some.

Ross draws blankets lets goo!

need the blanket merch >

Pls make blankets

Amazing job

That brown long sleeve was terrible lol

OMG imagine sleeping covering yourself with a Nima blanket

Nima blanket tho, official merch pls?

Yes to blanket please lol

Hi Ross!!! Im a 11 year old Pilipino boy and your art and channel inspires me alot and your imagination ,art and energy is top tier the quality of your vids is soooo good and the sfx is awsome , I have been wanting your amazing magical nima book full of color for my birthday and which is in christmas eve but my family is too poor to afford it since here its 4000 pesos. i wont stop commenting this until you heart this, i follow all your social media acc except for discord p.s Lol this vid was so fun ,the fake sellers was out when they saw your name😂 Is your discord server free? i would love to join and chat every day

OMG, the phone just broke 💀😂

Thats the most creative video lol

NOOOOO DON'T TEAR UP THE SHIRT!!!!

*Cries in British*

I want some blankets and pillow covers.

yes i need a blanket

I wish people don’t steal art and sell it for them selfs. If they want to sell art they have to make it them selfs. I wish the art field was more stick to sue these sort of people.

Blanket +1!

Yes I want a blanket!!!

Well at least they left the watermark on the blanket. that could count as advertising? Even tho Ross is so big i bet marketing agencies pay HIM to work for him. looool

Blankets!

The gal of some companies man...

Ross where did you get your sweatshirt?!

I’d like a ross draws hat, I think that’d look cool

I would love the real blanket merch from ross but with washing time to time it's not going to be the same it's going to lose its softness and quality.

Just inquiring if you have any animated wallpapers at all for desktop pc ?

Sven body pillows…. Nima blankets….

That’s why I bought your mercy at Comic con n your website 🥰🥰

I love youuu

Sad but then funny at the same time! Imagine using someone else's art to better self, big big rip XD. Though while watching this it did reminded me on how some people buy merch to resell it at a higher price. So got to be very careful making sure you double check to see if it's official art from the artist and not someone random. (⌐■-■)

haha such a good video, it sucks that the internet works this way but glad you can make a video of it haha. Side note: hope you don't get offended but I feel like you have a tongue tie haha, if that's true, you should have it cut for you, you will feel less stress while talking and smoother. (had that with both of my daughters).

Gotta watermark ON the character in lower opacity

a ross draws planner 🤔

please make a blanket!

He looks upbeat but he's really pissed

I'd buy a blanket or acrylic keychains if you ever decide to sell them

These thieves…..wow. Not cool

Oh God. Don’t make a body pillow.

Me: Getting ready to go to the studio from Argentina *dont come to the studio* Ohhhh...

that ripoff hoodie looked lie moldy cheese lmao

If you sel beanie with your little art,would be appreciates cuz I could wear it everywhere

ROSS; YOU HAVE TO DO A VIDEO OF YOUR ART ON NFT. Plus you will make money

I like his sweater I must habe

nice video

¡Son Gokū exists!

Ross just made this video to rip his shirt off and show off that torso. Not complaining.

So let me get this straight. He apologized and recognized other people stealing his art and isn't mad at them and even encourages people to get what they can afford even if it is bootleg and to not worry about him and his bottom line but to consider other smaller artists and you consider that...irony? Sounds like decent character growth to me and helps me respect him even more for knowing that context. Now THAT'S ironic. Thanks!
