There's room in my PM box, Wak.

Go ahead. Make me cry. We'll see if I do!

Now, if you needed other bits of fun, there's stuff like this:

That's Arakashi on teh right.

Re: I Demand Painful Rob Liefeld Art!

So in addition to being talentless he's also a shameless thief? Nice. Being inspired by other artists is one thing but directly ripping them off is another.

My god. How does he get away with this? How can the man work as an artist while cribbing from such well-known sources?

Ditto that. I'm pretty naive on this, but I would think stealing images like that would land him in civil court...

On top of his many other crimes and sins, he took Laetitia Casta and made her ugly.


Seriously, I can't believe he hasn't been nailed for this.

Re: I Demand Painful Rob Liefeld Art!

Well, I *think* that half teh stuff he cribs is Japanese, which has more lax copyright law than the US.

Heck, Shatterstar is, item for item, hair, headmask, everything, taken directly out of a Japanese book and given different coloration.

I dunno if they're even aware that he exists.

Re: I Demand Painful Rob Liefeld Art!

Heh. The only time his figure anatomy is even close to being correct is when he has practically traced it from someone elses work.

I can pretty much forgive a guy for making a lot of money while being a lousy artist in his own right. But to steal other peoples work and call it your own is the biggest insult of all.


What a fucking hack.
