Let's just say that it appears that this kid's portfolio was really inspired from someone else's work, enough said!
Good night...

Take it easy fella's.
Kid got talent, let him find his way, he is still young.
Some members are again way out of line, and you see them only coming out the of the woodwork to criticise, a damn shame.
Spend that time working instead of hating on a 19 (!) year old kid.Grow up.

Wow, this thread led to an interesting evolution from pure bashing, into an interesting discussion. And I don't have any qualms with admitting that a lot of my work for clients are based on their references (some were blatantly a copy+paste reference from an existing work by others, etc and attributed with clear directions that it is to be followed closely), and some of them are my idea which was largely inspired by others work. And I am still learning, growing and I don't think we all will ever stop learning.

fate_ - below is intended as a conversation and discussion point, not a cheap shot.
aren't we graphic designers? isn't that solving communication for clients through design? so, using established styles and methods is part of our brief. the talent for the most part is the quality of the delivery and it's success in achieving client goals.
do you also think a designer should:
• create a new original font for every brief - because using an existing font is copying.
• never use photoshop or illustrator (or indesign) styles, filters or plugins - obviously they are already used somewhere.
• hand-make paper for every print run, i mean it's been used before yeah?
• etc - pls insert other ludicrous examples to support my small point but not really.if you honestly think anyone's folio is original you may need to prepare yourself for what i like to call 'reality'. it might seem a crushing blow when it catches up to you.
discuss.
- this is what i'd call the difference between graphic design and being an artist. they are different.airey
