Completely agree. That is the most likely outcome. My only observation was with as much as he could lose from a fouled relationship with the studio, why take the risk at all.

Kurtz American Psycho would be a dream. Who's dick I gotta suck to get in the commission group?

Plenty of the #mondoroster still does unlicensed fudge on the side. the risk is ridiculously low unless ya "blatantly" plagiarize. #tehmanevaffect

Who knows? Maybe he's already been blacklisted and figures he has nothing to lose. It's strange that he seems fearless about it between the gizmodo article and his FB ads...almost as if he's rubbing it in their (studio) face. Could be an ego thing?

I dunno'...all I can say is the more I look at that Alien(s) poster - the more I find it hard to believe that he draws the likenesses without some kind of photoshop copy/paste technique. One of these days, I'll play-around in ps and figure-out the process he uses. Just because I can.

And you wonder why you get picked on sometimes.

Post comments on completely unfounded assumptions on his standing with studios, an inference of him being egotistical and finally questions his ability as an artist.

Come on over to FB, you'll fit right in.

C'mon. Yes, it is an assumption. I only mentioned the possibility of already being blacklisted. I can't imagine why an artist would take such a risk. The only answer that I could come-up with was that, for some reason, he felt that he had nothing to lose.

I seem to recall reading something he posted, (could have been several posts), that led me to think he has a fairly large ego. JMO. Kurtz, keep-on being you - I'm not trying to change anyone.

Okay. I'll admit my post was stabby and I apologize. I will refrain from posting this type of comment, but his likenesses are a bit too perfect. Again, JMO.

LOL...I was banned from a FB group last week. First time.

One more thing...about being picked-on. I'm pretty tough and can laugh-off a lot of fudge. Most of the fudge thrown at me was made by a group that seemed to get off on it. I know that was to entertain their buddies.

No one can make me feel inferior without my consent [1]. I do not give people like that my permission to do so. EVER. So, I defend myself.

It was in a group unrelated to art. I, unintentionally, hurt the admin's feelings and she banned me. You know me...I kinda' tell it like it is and sometimes the truth hurts.
