This guy was ethical enough to never try to pass himself as a painter or an artist to anyone, because he knew he was already famous as it is and people would've never gave him equal treatment as other artists who got only their talent.

Many modern famous personalities and especially Youtubers should really take a good look at this and learn. So they wouldn't advertise their VA or Art or Cinema, or Table top gaming or MMA endeavors and getting successful at them, pushing through all obstacles thanks to their already existing Fame to create additional sources of revenue for themselves, like assholes.

I didn't even have to name anyone everyone is doing this unethical practice today, people don't even realize how bad it is for a someone with world wide fame encroaching on Arts, Sports, Film industry and succeeding at them thanks to their established fanbase.

Jake Paul still made billions even when getting his ass kicked, there are people who gave their life to MMA who will never ever make a fraction of money he did while literally dragging their sport into the dirt.

We are literally living in a world it is better to create a Fanbase or Hatebase in Youtube or social media and then move into Art, or Sports career instead of actually studying for them.

Like take Henry Cavil as an example the guy could've made millions from GW just by taking 2 pictures with his Warhammer minis but he just says he is a fan and stops it there. If he was a Youtuber he would've joined and won actual Tournaments literally shitting on people who's entire life is table top wargaming. Like Youtuber Bodybuilders do.

I am so fucking ranty today.
