aw geez





well he coulda supplied threadless with his source images



but i find the really unfortunate things are the weaknesses in the copy. He really muffed it up



but the concept I guess is still all his - which in this shirts case is quite a bit of its appeal

Drawing someone is hardly plagiarism :/ It's not even a direct drawing. Hell, all he did was use the same face shape, and similar eyes. The hair is only the same around the face, the rest is his own idea.

the original sub was a lot closer to the photo we had him change it for the final

I like her freckles too, and her lips are great (in the photo)



it looks like he changed the eye and the hair a bit between the original sub and the print.

i can't really tell the difference between the submission and the final but either way i could tell that he wasn't stressing likeness to the photo so i was only curious about the legalities of something like that (photo of inspiration versus that of reference).

see the eye and the additional hair - that appears to be the changes

but I don't see how it distances it much from the first version in relation to the photo
