The Lion Tail and Fluffy Dragons
are not under copywrite.
There where others since before JBD, on different websites.
Everywhere.
I agree with this person -
Gale. wrote:It could just be the way they draw too, I draw a wolf and sometimes it ends up looking like a "fluffy dragon" with a wolf tail. I actually thought your character was an example of what you're talking about (sorry).
And the JBD dragon anatomy is like a cuter version of an eastern dragon actually, that is what I think. And people are highly influenced by cultures in the east, right?
Yet, I Think what's mainly being copied is the style - I can't explain it really, but.. yeah
"fluffy Dragons" are not the problem of it

They're kinda like eastern dragons. I DO agree somewhat, but Fur-dragons are not all copying JBDs.

(the tail is not exclusive to JBDs
it's just an exaggerated lion tail or eastern dragon tail)
I also mistook the creature you drew as an example of the JBD-copy. Long tail tipped with what I first thought was fur(i see it's a spade-ish-shaped spike now). Chibi bat wings. From what I can tell, it has a basic 'wolf shape' to it as well.

Lol well if you think about it there are over 6 billion people in this world, are you really telling me there is going to be a design or idea completely and utterly unique? I doubt it, for instance there is a book writen before the hunger games that has the same plot and everything besides the characters and a few other things, I positive the writers didn't copy each other... Theses things happen. Now I understand that there may be people who are taking some of the JBD qulities but you can't say the "fluffy dragon" idea is Hiccup's original idea, she may have come up with it in her mind but Im sure I could find fluffy dragons on google if I wanted to.
Examples:

I completely agree ;o; Thank you for making this.
FLAIL.
Guise.Guise.Guise. Quit it. They're right. I saw ONE species of fluffy dragon when JBD's started, and that's a JBD.
And Diamond... That last one is a JBD. Lolololol.
Kali is cute. Leave them alone. Stay out of it. Because all of you people defending this are prolly the ones who make the knock offs e.e
Deep in the woods,
In a world of our making.
Lost in each other,
No sense of forsaking.
A simple feel like any other,
Without any room to pretend as another.
But losing our footing on a wire of briers,
Binding and prying in loosening desires,
That not even the strength of
the strongest of motions,
Could calm this tide
Of rising commotions.
Drowning in sinners and falsified thoughts,
With feelings of malice, detachment and loss.
Swimming in circles around the drain,
Sucking the life from every vein.
Draining the soul and leaving it lost...
How much falling till you're finally caught?
And get back to the place your eyes have sought?

Completely agree with This -
But both sides, like I said, have a point.

http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/200H/f/ ... 5d18nz.pngOoo I hit the jackpot, to me this looks very similar to a JBD

Well, not you in particular, but just... In general. They're probably protecting their JFD's or whatever.
And I actually tried out for that one... I think it's name is Tic Tac.
