#artthief

There's an iceberg of issues behind this person but I wanted to highlight a recent one.

FangBanger92 ( aka xFangBanger92x xFang-Banger92x etc) has laid claim to an OddWorld fan character and rather than simply create her own art of the character, she has instead traced art that was made of that character years ago by someone who used to be a friend of hers.

Worse is that he is no longer with us and he cannot defend his own work. And she knows this.

Guess I got a post to make. I tried blocking this person, but somehow they still managed to do this. This person steals art from SEVERAL artists, so check for those. mine included, had the gall to tell me they stole my tiktok video for their youtube and begged me to unblock them. continuously stealing art, erasing artist's tags and putting theirs instead, PRETENDING the characters belong to them. do your thing ppl, share this, raise awareness. oh also they're a tcester putting some screenshots as proof here's the accounts: https://tiktok.com/@aryanasusarret @/holycandymaker on tumblr Aryanasusarret on youtube

Just wanted to share what a problem "defending the children" can be when said person can not stop attacking innocent parties. You might remember Vatre, a supposed 14 year old who has been stealing, bullying reselling and even trying to pretend to be me a few times. This is several months worth of evidence me and a series of friends have gathered against her. I'm posting this so people can see what happens when you let these "innocent little ones" run wild in a fandom with no consequences. I am also hoping other people can watch out for her, she is a lying, sneaky snake, she will use you and abuse you. There's an account however saying she is actually 25, so if that's true, it's even worse. Spread the word and keep an eye out for Vatre, she will never stop until enough people know of her. Here is a document with everything so far curtsy of my good friend, bless her soul for dealing with this little pest for so long to get this stuff.

And this is why kids should be supervised and kept away from social medias. 

All because:

They credit "Stupid n' skatchy" that stole exactly as it is from the original artist (and still didn't correct that), while Jack's one was at last a little bit transformative. So they credit the REAL art thieves while Jack in his apologize credit the original artist thanks to his mods. Proof Proof 2

Jack block them not because don't want to hear criticism. The tone of all their posts in general are mostly trolling, mocking and bullying (in the same post they are crying Jack didn't gave them attention call his fans a**kissers*. Frustrated much?). And in discussions instead of argument their opinions mock his community saying "He (Jack) isn't going to f* you” (proof), trip guilt people using family or personal mistakes and then call "abuse" the criticism directed to them or when are called out. Proof

At words they say they care about Jack and are doing it for his good, but their acts actually point to just discredit him because mostly criticize him for irrelevant things or ignore when other people do the same. Proof

So we all know that Ms. Stepputat is gone from Deviantart, but she’s still on Pinterest.  Thing is, Pinterest has this feature called “Secret Boards” which allow you to pin stuff that you don’t want others to see.

I personally find this stupid, but I digress.

She’s been using her Secret Board to continue tracing off of not only Drachea Rannak, but her main foe FireFlea-San as well.

When Flea drew this:

This showed up as well:

https://www.deviantart.com/genetic-miles/art/Nads6969-Overlay-of-FireFlea-San-830336955

That’s right.

This is a commission that Flea drew, and that scarlet abomination is Ms. Stepputat’s trace of her work.  She traced off of someone who has filed multiple DMCA notices against her for tracing her previous commissions without permission and has successfully led the fight in getting her kicked off of DA.

It gets to a point where you have to question her IQ.

Considering how Flea, with the help of many other people, destroyed her on multiple internet platforms, I have to wonder why she’d continue to start shit like this.

Here’s a tip: don’t kick the same hornet’s nest after you were previously stung enough that you went into anaphylactic shock.

For some reason, Ms. Stepputat thinks that she still has something to fight for, and that doing things out of spite is the most logical option.  She seems to think that, as long as she hides her tracks and doesn’t get caught, that she is perfectly justified in continuing with this behavior.

At this point, a lot of people are convinced that Ms. Stepputat has a legitimate mental/behavioral disorder.  She is not thinking logically in dealing with her problems, nor is she capable of recognizing other people’s boundaries or respecting their rights and feelings.  

Several of her ex-friends have come forward and stated that her temper is often irrational, violent, and explosive.  They’ve also told me that she is incredibly manipulative; she will avoid apologizing for being mean, and then turn the situation back on her victims and attempt to make THEM feel like THEY were being mean to HER and expect them to apologize to her.

I do not say this in jest.  Nadia Stepputat is sick.  She is sick, and her current psychiatrist is not worth their weight in toenails if this is how she behaves after years of sessions.  But I suppose I can’t blame the psychiatrist if Ms. Stepputat is not being honest about her behavior.

At the same time, someone’s mental health shouldn’t be an excuse to engage in behavior that adversely affects other people.  I say this because this is not the first time someone with a severe mental illness has joined Deviantart and caused a lot of trouble for a lot of people.  There have even been incidents where these same people had their “feet held to the fire” so to speak to get them to stop.

Shia Castaneda, aka NightFlightVersel, comes to mind.  This guy was incredibly sick in the head.  Despite people constantly telling him to leave their artwork alone, he continued to create new accounts and post people’s pictures without their permission and take credit for them.  His amount of harassment, stalking, and terrorizing members of the DA/HTTYD community eventually culminated in getting the police involved, and from what I understand, his internet activity is being closely monitored.

Something similar to this was the crazy art-stealing vegan named Josue LP, aka CuteTurtleBoy and Tortuga-Ladrona on Deviantart.  If you want to read his deal, check out my journal here.

Ms. Stepputat recently announced on her Facebook that she’s in a relationship...  I hope that person knows what he’s getting into, and that his potato bag of a girlfriend is bringing a lot of self-inflicted baggage and might very well be staring down the barrel of possible litigation.

I hope he also realizes that she is a very, VERY ugly, awful person who is incapable of any sort of remorse or accountability, prone to violent, irrational actions when she doesn’t get her way, and constantly on the look out for ways to get away with poor behavior each time she gets caught.

Either way, FireFlea-San is in the process of reporting her not only for copyright infringement (again), but also repeated ban evasion (this will be her third account there, since the previous two got banned).

(UPDATE) she has now changed her name to @mochi_cat_cutie

Callout post.

I really hate to do this. But since they've blocked me, I have no choice. First of all, please refrain from following or communicating with the mentioned user. -

I've been recently tipped off from another user that @michelle_mochi_monster stole a art piece from me, lazily cell shaded it, and posted it to both facebook (it's now been removed by a group admin) and on instagram, which it's still posted after I asked them to remove it. She only recently credited me because she was called out by others, and when I left a comment on her post about this she said she would remove it, but then proceeded to call me a jerk for asking for my art to be taken down, and afterwards blocked me from seeing her account. If you can, please report and block @michelle_mochi_monster. Do not harass them, or comment on their page or message them.
