If you visit the artist website - http://www.mijnschatje.fr/ what I find very disturbing is the following statements:
“Her silenced, fantastic universe is a bizarre and beautiful landscape from which big eyed elf-like little creatures stare at you with their mesmerizing eyes. Both romantic and surreal, ‘her work’ is the kind of thing dreams are made of, the worlds ’she creates’ you can easily get lost in..
.. which is largely appreciated and ‘propagated’ by the world’s cutting edge press and publishers since 2004.”

all that kewpie doll shit, especially with a sexual context, makes me incredibly uncomfortable. too pedophilic. the japanese and their incredibly strange wank-off dolls are a troubled people...
not to generalize, or anything.- sound like someone has some unresolved issuesflashbender

It is simply indescribable, as a BJD collector and makeup artist, to sit and watch this unfold. It's like a bad dream, where every day more and more tracings are found. Mijn is a thief of the lowest caliber and deserves to loose whatever reputation or gallery shows or what have you that she has coming. Maybe she should have thought about this before ripping off prominent members of the BJD community or decided to trace every single thing she seems to "draw". Even the tiger found in two of her works is traced!

All she has done is copy the faces right?..... just the faces and a little bit of the hair, the rest of the environment she has created is hers?...... I guess the focus of the images are the face, but ocht I don't know fuck her she's probably shit nuts anyway yo!

how surreal Ive got a little tear away calender with illustrations on and today's is her work.

Thing is though if I were to be insired by the dolls I would be changing nearly every aspect of the face after I had innitially copied it, so I would create a base image which would be my copy then I would set about trying to change it into something else, hopefully that made sense.

I think its a grey area. to batesole someone else's illustration, sure. to copy a photo of one of the dolls, say, on a swing and use that, that's plagiarism.
But to copy the face of a three dimsnsional doll and use that in an illustration? Is that reallt such sacrilege? Jeez do we have to do EVERYTHING from scratch without even being influenced by others???

thats pretty hefty plagiarism. its a shame because it seems like she can do the work, and she could very much modify the doll heads, except she falls short. AYE!

Thats different, these are copywrited characters. look at like you use the stuffed animals from 'Friends with you' and draw them almost exactly the same & then ask a lot of money for hem.
