An artwork I plan to use as a protest for the removal of almost of my Shantae artworks from Deviantart.

Granted I wasn't planning on getting my Tumblr obliterated as well so that changed things a bit.

You see, one of the things that bothered me the most is that they removed all the artworks including some were Shantae was just in a bikini (Not only for me but for some other artist) based on the fact that Shantae is 16 in her original context, making her underage despite my depictions being clearly of an adult woman.

Here are the terms that they used to remove all my artworks: Link

Based on the current DA terms, as long as a character is underage in it's original content is not supposed to be allowed, however by that wording (in theory) any character that is more than 18 on it's original context should be protected by the same policy despite its appearance.

I wanted to push the nonsensical rules by doing the reverse and drawing a character that looks younger despite being older in "its original context", (Pearl is actually 21 in the game) so in theory she should be allowed and I should be able to claim it if they try to censor it.

A few things could happen after I upload this on Deviantart:

Nothing, because DA is reactionary and they only remove reported stuff.
They ask me to add a mature filter to it for some reason.
It gets claimed, and I would use the argument of "Original context of age" and they should obligated to remove the claim.
It gets removed anyways, giving me the reason that they don't actually follow their own rules and they remove stuff as they please.
I get suspended or kicked out for being a "recurrent offender".
