lol TS demands apology? maybe i didnt follow but what the youtuber doing isnt all wrong under fair use. This is all matter of courtesy. Courtesy required when you use someone's else artwork; credit them when you do. Lets not go as far as TS to Bandai Gundam because they are likely not give a crap on TS small prawn artist and really transformative artwork doesnt impact original owner of Gundam. Infact, his work helps to keep Gundam alive in internet community. Anyway, these e-idiot in /k just want to act pro claiming this and that when the fact is just simple matter of courtesy. TS may be overracted using copyright strike when youtuber doesnt respond to TS at twitter, youtuber probably think he can get a leeway out of it. My opinion after watching thequartering responded with video and I dont trust the thequartering.
thequartering has been in youtube for super long time, he knows what he needs to do.
you got understand what TS demand apology in the first place or not??
He isn't demanding apology for using his artwork, he is demanding an apology for the provocative follow up video & harassment by thequartering supporters .. thequartering inadvertently set his support dogs onto TS by uploading that video instead of settling the issue privately first..
You say that thequartering is a long time youtuber and he knows what he is doing.. But no.. his actions clearly show that he doesn't indeed, know what he is doing..
In the first place, why did he use material for his video without first seeking the original artist for permission?? This is a big no no in the media world.. Some of these youtubers need a good lesson.
Has he learnt from this lesson? It seems the answer is a clear no..
Not saying TS is right either, especially in his negotiation style to settle a dispute, but he does have legit claim to copyright issues on his artwork. Fan art or not.. He is the author and owner of the work and has rights to the distribution & usage of it.
