1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    1. Does no one recognize that "book cover"? I keep thinking that perhaps it has been rotated ....

    2. I think he is literally in the process of removing content as I type this.... if I refresh his fb page the numbers in the albums is changing lol... looks like the community did a good job? maybe? Until he finds a new home for "his" stuff ;p

      @ Cat... I thought it was familiar too. (the book cover)

    3. Lady Tiku: that book cover is like an itch that i can't scratch. One knows that 'he' did not 'draw' it. There 'is' an image of a girl where the hair blows around the face like that. If I could just remember where it is or who did it....

    5. Yes, this man messed with the wrong Community. A community of Artists, Collectors and Admirers who 'pissed him off' by coming down hard on someone stealing their (he)art. Even now, an apology would be at the very least, less of an insult, an admission that he was wrong would also help, but will never mend the tear that he has ripped open. He now has ZERO credibility in the art world and has to live with that.
      This whole situation is so sad.

    6. Heh, his photos section went from 7000+ pictures to ~6600. At least things are being taken down.

    7. the more stupid thing is.... the amount of FREE "stock photo's" available out there is mind boggling ... why not use THOSE! no copy write infringements... they are there for the using O_o???

    8. Hey! I am amazed! Disney has actually written me back this evening!

      The general gist is that they are very concerned with the images I have sent, they will keep my name private, andof course cannot disclose any action taken on their part.!!

      So, I was not really expecting a response on their part, or maybe even someone to review it, but they have and they are taking action. At the very least, a cease and desist from Dis will hopefully jerk a knot in his chain, big time!

    9. Yay! c: I like to hear the sounds of progress. I guess you're the person I just saw on Facebook haha. Anyways, I'm glad that positive action is being taken and we are being taken seriously.

    10. Does it have a Sleetwealth look to her? Something about the face... that's just what strikes me.

      @Alicat - Wow! The Mouse is on the case now, that guy better start shaking in his boots.

    11. Oh that's such good news! I'm glad to hear it!
       
      #451 chanarivka, Mar 7, 2014
    12. Yup! That'd be me!! I am glad I can be of a little assistance! None of the images were mine, at meat that I can tell, but it infuriates me none the less!!

    14. Lachlana: you might be right!

      Everybody, look at this: it is "Stormy by Sleetwealth". Can this be 'the cover' ?

      edited to add: hmmm.. maybe not. The 'clothes' are wrong. He does not tend to change anything.

    15. He didn't win anyways. it was called "The Fae birth" pretty sure I recognize the figurine

    16. I've noticed a lot of comparisons between familiar pictures, but also wanted to add that he has taken from Amadiz on Deviantart as well (I contacted them about it yesterday before it was taken down) and have a screencap of at least one stolen picture next to the original if anyone would like to add it to their comparison collections.

    17. This 10 yr old DeviantArt account is still bothering me: http://ghostdragonpoet.deviantart.com/

      The name is Mathew. The artwork is the same (including the stolen Infamous 2 Video Game cover used for the comic book cover).

      Does he just have multiple accounts everywhere or something? What about the signature? Is he using different names?
       
      #457 livelaughlove, Mar 7, 2014
    18. My theory is that he was caught doing this before and created his newer account (the one that was deactivated) to try to start new so that it wouldn't be suspicious.
       
      #458 Aronzo, Mar 7, 2014
    19. Hurray for Disney!

      I also noticed he has a fair number of photos from Game of Thrones, and LOTR. Has anyone contacted HBO or Lucas Arts about the images?
       
      #459 MoonHawke, Mar 7, 2014
    20. I did a screenshot (I hope this works) of him actually talking in 2004 about getting banned on DA for art theft.
