like blatant copying much?

It's always frustrating to see people land industry jobs by stealing work from others, but it feels even better when the offended see justice. The good boys at polycount noticed some shady swiping in his work, and word spread like hot fudge on a sundae! Is it a bummer that he lost his job over this? Sort of, but it's a bigger bummer that a real artist was denied a job that he was qualified for because someone lied their way into it. The company that he formerly worked for asked everyone to stop blasting the internet waves over this, as they don't want to get sued over the rampant plagiarism that they didn't know about. That said, I think it's healthy for everyone to burn this guy's name in our brains and to be eternally vigilant for this kind of thing. It's not the end of the world, though. If he actually wants to be an artist, he can always change his name and make a brand new portfolio of REAL work. The choice is his, my friends.
