Hello! I noticed you reblogged art from Kaoru Hasegawa and I'm not sure if you care but I just wanted to let you know that all her popular art is unauthorized traces of doll photography and she gains a lot of profit without crediting the doll company. Please don't support her work!
Okay so my friend just informed me that the artist I just spammed has been suspected of tracing from photographs of dolls without giving any form of credit…
The article linked certainly feels pretty damning, in case anyone would like to read it for themselves.
I’m disappointed. She has a lovely colouring technique… If she gave credit, it wouldn’t be so bad, but…
Kaoru Hasegawa’s illustrations is suspected the tracing of BlueFairy’s
doll photo without permission, but he claim my illustration is own
creation, and he is selling goods at home and abroad which his
illustration has been printed.
I’ve recently found out that an Artist I liked (and was actually planning on buying from) traces.
You’ve probably seen his traced works floating around here and there, all of cute headshots of girls, but if you haven’t seen his work he owns this storenvy where you can see his stuff.
But everything if not all of the things he’s selling is traced.
Some examples:
He takes images from from a company called BlueFairy, which to my understanding is a ball joint doll company.
The thing is he doesn’t even flip the image or change the color to be something less obvious, it’s straight up traced and he’s making so much money from being uncreative and original.
