Yeap. Considering the same individual I am sure flips prints for cash and hypocritically has been in their own unlicensed commissions before:P More likely they just saw the print and were so distraught they missed it that their childish revenge laden intent is to put the artists job and livelihood in jeopardy. Hope karma drymounts that person in the ass.
Are you...are you hoping for karma to be involved in a situation featuring, at best, questionable copyright infringement?

I mean, people can print whatever they hell they want frankly, but morality is not part of any of this. Like, at all.

Really? I don't see much bitching about the 100s of other unlicensed commissions on expresso beans:)

Some of those unlicensed commissions are actually hand drawn and they might be stale but at least they aren't obvious drymounting trace jobs. See : Anything by Ise. This dude drymounting traced something so I'm not sure how it's an apt comparison.

Employer - so somebody paid you to trace a Calvin & Hobbes picture?
Artist - yes
Employer - can you get these morons to pay for anything else?

The artist asks for one thing from his fans: don't rip off my fudge. drymount you.

also if you bought this print or had any hand in creating it: drymount you.

i'm glad that thief got called out at work for being what he is.

ps. drymount you.

POTM at he least. I give you a standing ovation sir.

And yeah, take the rip off factor out of it and it's still the fact that he just basically traced an image lulz. I'm available to trace whatever you guys want... $50 an OG.
