Is it a reference though? I'm pretty sure this is just a furry redraw of a Calvin & Hobbes comic panel.

honestly yeah, now that you point that out it’s most likely a redraw. either way, AJMarekArt’s cool for choosing something from calvin and hobbes haha

This is an interesting hypothetical. But it really boils down a Ship of Theseus arguement imo. Your choice wether it's technically a reference or just a redraw.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 8 months ago

I would argue redraws are inherently references.
