Well isn't it funny?

A cyndaquil named Flint (which looks a lot like Niko) and a mienfoo with an oddly familiar-looking turban.

Of course, I have nothing to complain about as I have no copyrights or whatever, but the similarities are kind of very obvious (to the point where I though that mienfoo was, in fact, my Flint).

While the big scarf thing does look like it was inspired by your's, I wouldn't worry too much about it. I mean, it's not like they directly copied your team. I think what they did was cute, so it's all fine, right? \o/

'Course. Not gonna complain. It was simply an unexpected find. I won't worry unless someone CLEARLY steals my ideas or puts up carbon copies of my characters.

Obviously Flint has started a fashion craze.

Quick, monopolize the turban/scarf industry.

YEah... it's interesting. You just should try to talk to the artist. Maybe the characters will look totally different in the end? I don't know.

Very similar and I'd bet your images came up when he was looking for references on turbans, but really what other way is there to draw them?

Ears cause a bit of a problem with the normal method, I'm pretty sure you found the one way it would work for a creature with fox/wolf/cat ears. Natural you'd see it elsewhere.

But yeah his style does look similar to yours don't be surprised! Your famous in this social circle you'll be emulated a lot.

Yeah I know it was the easy way, though I can think of a couple more ways to make a turban. Also there's the fact that it's not just a turban, but that it wraps around the neck just like Flint's.

And Ah, I don't know if I'd say I'm "famous" -///////-

In this group, I'd say you have one of the most well known player characters. Largely due to all the fan art and group art done by for you, Archeu, Urchin, Misha, louie, ect, ect.

Since you guy's end up plugging each others teams and pages so often there is a lot of splash from viewers. In this group it's safe to say your art is widespread among this group's viewers.
