In light of the recent Art theft controversy i had a look at @josephacross work and it honestly suprised me that he would in some cases lift images off Pinterest into his professional work. I think this is beyond the pale for a "photobashing" workflow.
Justice for @4nt1r34l!
in 10 years i have never made a consistent income from this work and i am tired of designers from huge companies moodboarding and parasitising my designs while i struggle to make a living.
i don't have the resources nor the energy to spare to pursue this legally but i have lost count of the number of times a major company has deemed it easier to pay a designer to imitate or steal my work than to write me an email.
bungie is of course not obligated to hire me when making a game that draws overwhelmingly from the same design language i have refined for the last decade, but clearly my work was good enough to pillage for ideas and plaster all over their game without pay or attribution.
