That link was great. Laughed my ass off.
This is really amusing to me from an artist's perspective. And a bit annoying to other artists, I know. An artist works to create something and then another person comes along and says something like, "Oh that? That's easy! I can do it too!" and proceeds to fail. I've seen it so much. A lot of the time the other person is also another artist who is arrogant about their "talents" and looking to one-up.
The copycats doing this have a few key differences from the original that makes them fail so bad. One is lack of understanding of the project itself. A tutorial is not enough 90% of the time, it takes practice. And half of them aren't even going to follow the directions anyways. They lack patience and the sincere effort to improve. Then there's the attitude, like I exampled above.

@ Shawn
What do you want to discuss? Competence? Overconfidence? Emulation? Creative ability? Practice? Failure?
You can't do...
to create a replica of another's work requires a development of the other's mental skills. You must achieve the same set of thought pattern recognitions. Learning is not doing. Learning is retraining the mind in new awareness. That's why am apprenticeship is more valuable than an education.
