Even though this stuff was for that boardgame (Sandi standee notwithstanding), this Archer fella was right at home with CIG. Let us not forget the the CitizenCon poster that they sold in which the original Hilton hotel name and logo were still visible under the paintover, or the privateer character concept which uses the likeness of the dude from The Rules of Attraction:

Star Traders background story - prologue from manual.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

Similarities are to be expected.

I don't even know what original is at this point. Everything's stolen from everything else to the point that I'm almost ready to believe David Braben ripped off Croberts to create Elite.

One of the reasons I got my cat from a reputable breeder was I wanted one that was healthy while still being freaky. Her parents were both tested for the genetic markers for HCM (which killed my last big fuzzball) & she's even had her hearing tested as a kitten.

Knowing my kitty won't die of a broken heart (& breaking mine in the process) was well worth the hassle & cost of getting her imported. Plus I rest assured she can hear me, but just disregards it because she's too good to stoop to acknowledging me.

I like how he just hosed it up a bit with a spray paint brush or whatever then called it a day. Ripping something off then making it lovely is like a double insult to the actual artist.

You have to be the copyright holder. So the best you can do is report it to them and they have to take action.

It's never ending and the way everyone on here just takes it and runs with it is amazing.

Within 10 mins of every new fuckup there's artwork produced, songs written, cattes, troll reports, and all of it is loving hilarious. I've never seen anything like it.

How can you manage to gently caress up a kickstarter for a board game? Get CIG involved.

that makes sense. we never figured out what was wrong with Bowie, but I think maybe he either just didn't like our apartment (we have since got a house) or was allergic to something in the area. after he moved with the vet he was fine and even won some awards at shows.

we wound up going to another breeder after that tho and got Bear and Spice, since we had two cats pass before getting Bowie, who we had to give up. they are assholes but we love them.





related to current thread topic I can't believe they actually copied the background for the pic too LOL. i mean i should believe it, given what we've seen before, but holy cow. literally no aspect of the art is original
