Quote -  Most modelling artists watch releases (freebies and for sale) like a hawk, looking for something similar to theirs. 

Generally they will rip your name through the mud eve if it isn't a copyright issue, Iv'e seen some pretty vicious attacks regarding 2 diferent artists creating similar models of their own designs.

Basically both artists made models of similar products so one artists slams the other for "copying" their idea.
