There is nothing wrong with tracing.


As long as it is presented as such. It is dishonest and wrong to trace something and then say you did it all yourself. But there's no real issue (to me) if someone traces something and then says, "I traced this thing," link, "and then tried out changing the clothes" (or whatever modification).

It's just one way to help get a handle on how the lines come together.
