I mean, it is marketed as 'adult,' so buyer beware am I right

tbh i think the expression, and especially the pose, are not similar enough to say its an homage to calm.jpg

you may be right of course, but I would note that for legal reasons it would have to be reworked/changed enough to give plausible deniability that it was not a blatant copyright violation. an homage or tribute may well pass muster, something akin to a tracing would be inviting problems.

I dunno, I find it strikingly similar, and the juxtaposition with the word "calm" makes it . . . well, definitely in the realm of possibility that there is a reference/homage.

that's what i think, the expression is similar but not exact, and pose wise the drawing lady has her hand up to her face but the photo lady has both over on a leg. That leaves only the expression similar which really just looks like a calm and thoughtful lady face so idk

Also i had never seen calm.jpg until just now i had only seen people type out "calm.jpg" like everyone knew what that was so thanks for education me i guess
