Forums - Gaming - Borderlands 2 artist 'caught copying' professional illustrator's work [Update]

VicViper on 22 September 2012

Obviously inspired.

But not a copy... if there was no ziz-zag no one would freak out, but it's really copy and paste - really is, he copied the same lines. That's the major mistake the artist made.
BTW... the Star Wars piece is still leagues ahead, so iconic and clever.

I'm gonna guess they never even saw his artwork.

I mean... to have to, they'd of had to gone to his random website right?


But the zig-zag pattern under their necks are exactly the same.  That would be a huge coincedence. 


It's not only that but the top mountain range is identical as well (look at the triangle part on the right hand side).  It's obvious that the Borderlands 2 artist created his image by loading the original Star Wars image and edited it.
