Neverside

>>>He posts all his work on Deviant Art (like you), which if you haven't noticed is a massive community. Wouldn't someone have spotted this by now?

Not when there are 7 million submissions.
Not when everyone there only cares about whoring themselves to get comments and faves.
Not when the artist in question is a nobody.

I KNOW I've seen some of his works on DA by established artists, especially this one (I'm pretty sure it was a DTF a while ago) -

And this one right here:

...is a damn close rip off of this one by pixelcatylst:

If he really did those - fine - good for him. But just look at his gallery. His styles and techniques are all over the place. Some are just amazing, and some suck...and some are a combination - it just seems shady to me.

If you did some further investigation, you might have noticed that some people already made that claim on DA and that he admitted to be influenced by pixelcatalyst. He even notified him.

And, Pixelcatalyst himself answered in the comments with

Read your e-mail but took me quite some time before
i was able to browse this. Good luck on the contest.
You can do more tinkering with the tentacles to make the
physics of the whole image more convincing... but nonetheless
it's nice job.

I don't know about the first link, but the one you said he ripped off pixelcatalyst is completely wrong.
Do some more investigations before you go around accusing people.

The insane skills it took to make the skull-robot in this piece flat out do not match the basic retarded background. Why would anyone put in all that work at making a badass robot, just to make a beginner background?

Basically I think you're a fraud.

Scot you total muppet, the ros one you prolly seen along time ago at yaxay, if you didnt know its evil dildo, and she a gave me the photo so if you think its a rip ask her.
The second, as has been mentioned was inspired, as i said in the post. but it was still created by me.
I pity the jealousy that you harbour, of course my styles change, it would be prity damn boring doing the same thing day in day out. Well i hope this thread has pointed out the egg is trully on your face, proof is needed before you go around calling people rippers. Fine if you dont like my pieces but to accuse someone, well that just sucks, I have all the psds, plus the wips if you need to see them

On a different note, I wouldn't mind seeing the WIP's if you ever got the chance to upload them somewhere

Oh, yes, this is going to be wild.

Uh...because I don't think he really made the whole robot image?? And if he didn't do that, then the whole piece is kinda void for critiquing.

>>>The second, as has been mentioned was inspired, as i said in the post. but it was still created by me.

You didn't say who inspired you, nor did you provide a link to the virtual carbon copy original of that image which is also on DA. If you were a good REAL artist, I think you'd take his image, and actually do something new with it...but that would require originality.

>>>Well i hope this thread has pointed out the egg is trully on your face, proof is needed before you go around calling people rippers. Fine if you dont like my pieces but to accuse someone, well that just sucks, I have all the psds, plus the wips if you need to see them

Whatever. I've been around long enough to recognize a phony. Just because the other kids on this site are too inexperienced at Photoshop to know the difference, doesn't mean I'm wrong.

As far as proof...you just admitted to copying other people's images and photos - so I don't see how you can sit there accusing me of being jealous. lol You don't provide credit or links to the original pieces on even these 2, so whose to say the other pieces in your gallery are orginal too??

I've NEVER been jealous or accusatory to anyone just because they are better than me. I could care less. If anything, I'd give you props, and ask you how you did certain things. This just isn't the case though. I don't have time to go through the entire virtual art world to find the original images...so oh well, have fun thinking you won the debate. The only loser when it comes to ripping is the ripper.

Yes, please do.

Start with this one, hey?

Maybe post the original stock photos of all the machinery, and 2 or 3 "in process" JPEGS of the robot being formed from those pieces.

Then I'll be more than happy to apologize.

Hahaha...okay...so I compared the two robotgirl images in PS, and yeah, they are different enough.

Maybe I could be wrong. lol

Still seems pretty weird to just copy his design without doing anything more.
