Just noticed this exit survey. It's true that the people who commission me often provide me with references to copy. Sometimes other 3d animator's works. I just used them as a reference without a second thought, because I didn't want to disappoint the commissioner. I guess I should have realized that this will come across as ripping off the artists. 

Here's the example that they're probably responding to:

Maybe I could make up for it by linking to the reference material from now on? 

For what it's worth, it's a minority of my creations that even use references.
