still being honest the work is not great so meh but should at least say he got the pose from the picture linked here... and could at least have changed the hair or expression >.<

There are major factors that makes one question if this is a exercise or if this is a complete deception.

For starters, HE'S SUBMITTED A COUPLE DOZEN of these. And they all look pretty familiar, though I'd have to painstakingly find each one's proper owner.

Secondly, no recognition of the real artist. If his point is to practice, then go ahead! If your going to submit, fine! GIVE RECOGNITION. It's like making a research paper. Quote all you want, its plagiarizing if you don't say "Oh and it was this guy who found this out, not me."

And finally, yes, no structuring. And they're EXACT and TO THE POINT. Tracing isn't the best practice to start with, and when you just copy every line to the exact, not a single attempt at your own style.

JUST COPY/PASTE.
