There is no doubt that these two figures share one originator, and that person is Blackhearted (Gabe). Summfox, make whatever claims you will, but the similarities, and the coincidence of your release with your receiving this file from Gabe is too much for you to argue against. I've never seen your file, and seen KI only in passing, and the similarities are overwhelming. You took his file, modified it, and released it as your own. That much is a given. But all is not lost. If you have one ounce of decency, or respect for Gabe's work, you'll stop offering this file as is, and re-release it as a morph to Gabe's KI. That would remedy the situation and also honor the originator of that figure. As an aside, and also as a reprimand, had you gone to Gabe and asked his help in preparing a morph, I have no doubt that he would have placed his considerable graphic design and modeling gifts at your disposal, and assisted you in any way possible. He has done so in many occasions as many on this board will attest. But this has happened before to him, and it's high time people started respecting Gabe and the other artists who make a living selling their skills on this board. Or else you run the risk of having the same done to you by others, and where does that leave us? Sincerely, Fredoman
