    To be honest I don't see the problem with modeling one's work after another. Saying that is plagiarism is so silly. It doesn't hurt anything. Those same people modeled their work after something else they saw. Just very silly. Isn't that what we call homages?

    I see this often in film, yet there are no cries of plagiarism for that.

    The work in question (none of the Bond work) was images straight taken from other pieces of art and applied to her own. Not modeling their work, not homage, straight 1:1 copying with no credit.

    Was it other licensed Bond material? Not excusing anyone but perhaps there was confusion over what could be used.

    As far as I know it actually had nothing to do with any Bond work at all, but her work on art for the TCG Magic: The Gathering.

    Right, that was my understanding too. And presumably it was presented as being “original art.” Again, far from the worst scandal an artist can have, but still not good.
