    Angry Tracing Legoman? Really?

    Can we draw some attention to the fact that there is a blatant tracing of a legoman (lmsketch) drawing of X-23 from X-Men on the image for a daily mission? The mission is "I'll Support You" and it is SHAMELESS.

    Few things on the internet are more disgusting that taking credit for another artist's work, but here we are, ripping off one of the most popular porn artists out there.
    I'm just so blown away by this.

    Wow, that's eye opening, and pretty sad, too.

    LOL, Harem Heroes stooping so low to copy art just like Pussy Saga and Fap Titans

    These games trying to do Rule 34, are prone to tracing due to lazyness

    And thus one more nail to the HH coffin was just added.
    I mean the whole HH game is supposed to be one big parody type of stuff, with all girls being basically parodies of other existing media characters. Which actually on itself make you doubt the artist/designer. But this blatant "copy-paste" is just crossing the line.

    Hello, dear lazybones!

    Thank you so much for reporting this.

    Apparently, we weren't aware of this. The art team will change it asap!!!

    Please, do not hesitate to share again if there's more!

    Best,
    Jessie

    They hire contractors for some of the art, and my guess is that one of the contractors tried to pull a fast one.
    It is unfortunately quite hard to catch this kind of thing if you don't know the artist very well, and I can honestly say I never heard of legoman.
    Edit: Looked him up, and for "one of the most popular porn artists out there", he is rather smalltime and obscure.

    a lotta freelance artists go on Patreon b/c it's their bread and butter

    Harem Heroes also started on Patreon

    sadly, plagiarism is rampant on Patreon

    His patreon is small if anything. There are quite a few porn artists out there earning more than a dozen times as much on patreon. I've seen the numbers on there, and the only thing I can conclude is that he's an artist with a small following. When he barely earns his living through patreon, he is smalltime. When he earns 10k $ or more with just patreon, he can be called popular and even then he isn't among the most popular ones. He isn't in the deepest depths of obscurity, but he isn't popular.

    Also like I mentioned, they hire a lot of contractors for the art, especially for things that aren't too important (even some of the story images are done by contractors). It isn't uncommon for contractors to pull this kind of thing, because it's a hard thing to catch unless you know the artist who made the original work very well. The ones most often targeted by contractors like that are small businesses and small relatively unknown artists. Unless I see any indication of the team being aware of it, I won't assume they are the ones who did it, because I know they aren't that stupid. Don't get me wrong, they aren't exactly smart about how they handle some things, but they wouldn't knowingly do something that they can only expect to hurt them.

    Hello, all!

    Thanks so much for your dedication!

    Your knowledge in arts amazed us. But, yet... it's true that we didn't know that this was true.
    We whipped our artist a bit! It now will be fixed. Therefore we close this thread for now.

    Will post back when updates come.

    Best regards,
    Kinkoid team!
