i didn’t know where else to bring this up as a friend that tried to get in contact with the “artist” removed their comments



so let me tell you a story

i was on the runescape deviantart page one day looking at the art and ended up on the page of a user named “kayleegholson”

i went on to look at their stuff and saw this outfit and recognized it from the recent contest runescape had



i thought that was neat so i kept looking until i saw this

i thought the face was familiar to something ive seen before and found that it was

not only that

its copied and pasted so i kept digging and found more and more



the hair is a clone copy and from a work from another da user and this

found on a videogame concept art site

i think its horrible that someone would frankenstein a bunch of peoples art and claim them as thier own

you may be wondering why i care so much and thats easy

for one

i told my friend about this and she told me there was a big uproar about the contest on the forums and i looked into it and looked for her posts



this k_aylee is passing themselves to be a artist and calling another entry not one if they copied something

when look at that

she steals work from other people and puts it together and paints over it badly to then call it her own

this seems very dishonest and disrespectful so i made a post about it



tl;dr the user k_aylee steals art and traces over it and calls it her own while trying to say if people do that they’re not artists, they’re copycats
