it drew my attention as i have daddys girl tattoed on my ankle, but that is discusting. i used to be ana vid fan of SG, but i feel they accept anyone and everyone now, and they are no longer unique nor do they stand out as a suicide girl used to... *sigh*
i'm sure that many people have had the same disgusted sentiments...but i would like to add mine to the list nonetheless.
to see apnea and hussar as an inspiration is almost reflexive! but to manipulate said inspiration in such a way is beyond insensitive..quite appalling.
no, its legal to pay homages. Michael Hussar (my favorite painter) does not own the copyright to the imagery, just the painting, and the painting in full was not copied.
Now if he had that scary sucker copy written, thats a different story.
This is disgusting. I really hope the model either had no idea of this, or just wanted to pay an honest homage to her favorite painter, and knew nothing of the lawsuit.
Unfortunately I don't think anything can be done about this. Michael Hussar's painting wasn't copied really, and unless he has a copyright on big scary, thorn handled suckers. No rules were broken.
Seems to me, like this might have been done just to spite LP. I mean Michael Hussar auctions off that exact painting to help LP, and then SG does this?

This is so messed up man. Im surprised they didnt have her copy the painting exactly.
Ive never trusted that Missy bitch EVER, this just adds to that. The artist should sue and I hope in him suing them it'll help your case as well.
FIGHT THE POWAH!!
