Taken from here.

Have you heard of Mijn Schatje, a somewhat famous artist? Her name cropped up on DoA some time ago because her art is BJD focused but she has never given credit to the sculpts she used. Some people were like, it's reference only, who cares?

Anyhow, take a good look at the pictures linked here. She's not just referencing. She's tracing company photos or owner photos of BJDs. In some cases, she uses the original photos and does an easy auto-level, auto-colour to get the colour palettes she wants.

Now, she's claiming that she has never even heard of BJDs before used BJDs as models but has never seen any photos which look like her work and she doesn't trace at all, no sir! REALLY? At this stage, people are saying that they recognize some of the textures and patterns she uses elsewhere too. Based just on the dolls in her so-called art, I'm wondering if there's even a single piece of hers that was not traced or taken from somewhere else.

This semi-famous artist sells her prints for $1000+ and you can find her pictures in galleries and on products that paid her for use of her images. She's been in the news and in magazines. It's only that the doll community is small that she has managed to get away with this for so long because seriously, she's really bad at cheating. She traces exactly and uses company photos. Come on, she even traces wall-eyedness of the dolls into her pictures without trying to make it look better!

Don't let her fakery continue, spread the word.

Edit: Clarified some facts because I was writing based on memory since the original entry was deleted (because blog owner didn't want anything to do with lame art thieves!). But hey, someone has screencaps!

Edit2:
1. Just to clarify, I am not the source of all the comparison images! Credit has to go to Tomato for putting all the links up and starting this whole thing and to Radiotrash and Demyx for doing the comparisons and overlays. All I did was cheerleading, checking out some match-ups and doing my part in spreading the word. Thanks to everyone else for spreading the word too!

2. Several companies, galleries and magazines as well as a few owners of the originals have been contacted. But if there are ones you think should be contacted (and you have the ability to do so coherently and calmly) then go forth!

3. There are many more pieces of her 'art' that are recognizably of dolls or from doll pictures. It takes time sourcing the original photos though. If you can find more that match up, that will be awesome.

Edit3: Why so many edits??

ALL OF YOU HAVE PERMISSION TO LINK, QUOTE OR POST YOUR OWN TAKE ON THIS USING THE LINKS PROVIDED! For those who want to contact official parties, you might want to write a more proper explanation and use the links I've provided.

I HAVE UPDATED THE LINK TO A SWANKIER COMPARISON WEBSITE PUT UP BY RADIOTRASH! Can we say Mijn Schatje is a no good lying, stinking art thief?!

Just throwing out there that I strongly recommend people with Twitter do a search for #mijnschatjetheft and retweet the message that a lot of us are posting. It'd be awesome if it could get enough notice to be a trending topic. (onnawufei)

Just updated my sales threads with a bunch of stuff @.@
