Moreover you came here and attacked an artist's in-progress work and the methods used. Maybe you should reserve judgment until the piece is finished before drawing upon yourself such ire from the rest of the community.
Also taking a few opinions that differ from your own and lumping them together as the entirety of the forum is a rather hasty generalization and makes for a poor argument.
I used the "in-progress" piece as the example because it was the first I came upon the original source of the art. Given time, I'm sure I could track down all the other sources to other finished pieces, and then we'd see just how much has changed, but I doubt much would be different save for faces.
Once again, people seem to not be able to separate the difference between referencing and copying.
