If they was inspired by Mike's work then why did he say so, i would of not said anything to this person nor took it this far, but he made it clear all the work in his gallery is his.
He is also selling all his works for $50.00 and up can someone say rip off.

The work is his. There are differences between Mikes work and his. We all get inspired by different things. I believe Mike had taken techniques from Mark Silvestri and Joe B. when he used to work at Top Cow and came up with his own style. If people are willing to pay for his work that up to the person who pays. I don't remember him saying it was Mike's work.

yes and no it's his work, from the neck down it is, as Tim Townmsend said in his journal he retraced mike's head drawings and the guy drew the body down, or in some cases drew the head and retraced off of mike's body down.

This Can't Be Legal

Not that they're trying to pass them as originals but still.

Here another fake:



That I would want to denounce since I had it in my collection five years ago when I began on CAF.

I learned it the last year by a person of this forum that says itself to be an exceptional collector and that did not have the courage to say it earlier it is shameful.

And by another person on CAF that supposedly possesses the original one and that did not show me that a small party of the original one (with blue lines) and that shows it even on CAF, it is even more shameful that which did me the first person.

These two people lacked me totally of respect as collector and I do not hold to thank them for that (their behavior is inaceptable) for I always thought for these whole years that I possessed an exceptional sketch on Michael Turner and to the final one I met again with a fake of which I would well have happened.

Hi folks

to avoid another terrible mistake and not to buy fake art again i just wanted to ask wheter you could help me with your expert opinions regarding this michael Turner sketch.

I have send a message to to seller where he got it from. He also offers Sketches from Bill Morrison, Don Rosa, Billi Tan, Carl Barks and even Charlie Chaplin.

Thank you very much
