(sorry for the long post)
The same Astarion artwork continues to be stolen time and time again by unscrupulous shops (I've filed over 20 complaints, just on Etsy alone). One particular independent shop refuses to remove the items using my artwork, ignores my messages, and deletes all my comments warning buyers.
Here's the specific artwork, my original fanart, and the low-quality and insolent modification to turn it into a shoddy sweatshirt and t-shirt design. Which is promoted on TikTok !
This has to stop.
Sharing your work on the internet, or even just sharing your passion, has become a nightmare for artists and creators. We already have enough to deal with in the face of AI threats and platforms like Aliexpress; now we have to manage a surge in theft as well.
Here are the screenshots :
I'm seeking your help in identifying the authors of these artworks so that I can notify them.
I'm also currently in contact with a specialized attorney because I've had enough.
The cup is full, and I want to be able to showcase my drawings without enriching thieves. It's particularly painful during this period of economic crisis, where, like many others, I'm struggling to make ends meet, to feed my two young kids.

The website says the shop is located in 217 S Parramore Ave, Orlando, FL 32805, United States

Also, Ghosttraveler on TikTok has made a callout video to help, here is the link, if you can share it as well : https://www.tiktok.com/@ghosttraveler/video/7291769599530454314
Thank you so much for reading this, and for your help.
Only a gay person would do this
God please save them from this wretched fandom 🙏🙏
And the immortal too I guess
This came to me in a dream
I've been reflecting on the situation for some time now... Corporate bullshit is nothing new, but I still didn't expect this turn of event (considering the success of HI-FI Rush, which wasn't colossal, BUT STILL). With all the rumors, I was hyped for the possibility of TEW3 or something related, and now it looks like the series is a hostage IP. It could be brought back by some other studio one day, but... I dunno. This whole situation is so wrong. I can only wish the dev teams all the best. 💔
At least TEW enjoyers still have each other so we can share amazing fan content to preserve the legacy. Thank you Tango for the unforgetible ride! 🧠✨
Bro this gorgeous fucking nose stays within my reach no matter what. 🤨🤨🖐
