David, yes the character is based off of that. I aplogize for not giving credit.
But please note that I did create everything else, the colors, the wings, birds, photography, effects, and I changed the image around drastically.
I dont think that justifies as being a rip. I think in the art scene it would be called a "reference". If I made a mistake in "ripping" it, to you guys, then I will be happy to take it off my website.
Niracle, it is not my website, so I don't see how you would say that. As to the word 'rip' , a rip is not altering a image at all, claiming it as your own and implementing it, making money etc.
I apologize again, as I credit everything else I make. I must of forgotten. ;/ I apologize. Hopefully you guys see it as I used reference and did not rip it. I totally drew everything there. I can even copy the papers and send them to you directly rofl.
Best regards,
Tim
