@agapinha I think the idea is that those movie characters are played by noteworthy actresses, while the UAB characters seem to just be random non-celebrity children. You could argue that, while Arya from GoT is a character played by an actress, Laura from UAB is just a direct copy of someone who isn't playing a character. I'm not saying I agree, just trying to offer a possible explanation.

@agapinha I think what bothers me about drawings of real people in general is the hypocrisy. I know an artist who got called out for drawing Rey from Star Wars. Twitter told him off for sexualizing the actress, Daisy Ridley. The artist defended himself, saying he considered the two separate and he had "nothing but respect" for Ridley.My issue is, NOBODY let Shädman use that excuse with Dafne Keen as X-23. It feels logically inconsistent. I'm prolly engaging in the Goomba fallacy rn, but...

@agapinha The characters you mentioned may be portrayed in live action, but they do not originate. For literary characters, all you need is a basic model with features as their book described. for comic book characters like Laura (X-23), there's plenty of comic art to draw reference from. For characters that originate in live action... can't help you there.
