Case #8 - GlTTE

So this is the post about GlTTE (which makes me very sad).
You may have known her better as Rameboez.

Anyways she entered Pop's Art Contest (several times) but this is the entry that we will be looking at.



Her entry being this...

It looked oddly familiar. 

Luckily anonymous found why this picture looked so familiar. 
This is the original drawing made by a deviantart artist named gueuzav IN 2005.



As you can tell GlTTE traced this drawing for Pop's contest.
Here's an overlay for further proof.

An overlay of the images. I didn't even have to resize GITTE's drawing it fit on it perfectly.




































When GlTTE was confronted about it she said something along the lines of..
"I didn't know I was doing something wrong! I'm bad at poses!"
Drawing isn't like a pixel doll were it's acceptable to use a "base" hun.

Pop made no comment when the proof was sent to her but she didn't award GlTTE any prizes for this drawing at the very least.
But she did win a whole bunch of other credits for her other art.
Which makes you wonder did she also trace them too?

  1. This is just ridiculous. I've never something so similar. Even looking at the other Art Theft Cases it doesn't compare to this one. And there's not even that much proof. But the way I see it, soon there will be lots more. It's a shame you know. Noone will ever know what their true designs are. It just shows that their work isn't that good if their stealing somebody else's.
