No artist likes having his or her work ripped off.  No artist likes seeing something he or she put many hours of hard work into be copied.  So, we'd like to show you a shirt by a company called New Breed Girl next to Shawnimals' Son of Moustachio plush.  Look similar?

Wow!  That's pretty blatant.  The folks from Shawnimals have made it known that they had nothing to do with this t-shirt.  We'll let you know if we hear anything from New Breed Girl, but there
are several documented instances of this type of thing happening with
them.

What do you think?  Is it helpful to let you know that some of your favorite artists are having their characters swiped?  Maybe you bought one of them thinking you're supporting a starving artist.
