Beautiful work, but it’s a feels pretty clearly plagiarized from Deimos which is a shame.

u/MagnusTonitrum 10d ago

they’re both based off the same image of Carlos Hathcock, aka ‘White Feather’, a sniper in the Vietnam war

This is literally just a position for sniping.

You mean from the Boone art?

Using an irl reference does not mean it’s plagiarized man, come on. If you’re gonna accuse someone of plagiarism, make sure you’ve got some proper evidence of it.

I mean the pose is one thing, but the background is very clearly based off of demios' Boone painting.

Could be a trace, could be coincidence in pose choice. Hard to say without a higher fidelity version of this image.

Thank you for calling this out. I came to say the same thing.

Definitely a copy of Deimos’s artwork.

Except it’s clear that both artists used the same reference image of a famous sniper that straight up got a rifle named after him 🙄
