Fractalsponge is a well known 3D designer who's made a lot of excellent recreations of SW ships from all media. However the fuckers at Disney have actually gone and traced his works for one of their fucking handbooks straight from google images. The absolute state of Yidsney.

iirc he's okay with it being cannonized, 90% sure they talked to him about it beforehand and everything. I've got no great love of the Mouse, but check your autism OP.

Sure as fuck doesn't sound like he's okay with it and he clearly wasn't aware of this judging from his comments.

This is how the entire industry works now. Thanks to digital technology people are just googling images and then tracing over them. IT's faster and requires less skill and effort. It's exactly what they wanted.

Kid and his imaginary animal say stupid shit and occasionally get existential. Pretty standard formula. Its cute, but people treat it like some sort of Shakespearean epic that revolutionized comic strips and deconstructs society.

It's also pretty, and has some fun physical comedy with the odd bit of fuzz. Not hard to see the appeal in that.

Anyway, have they done this for any other works?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meme

>A meme (/miːm/ MEEM[1][2][3]) is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture—often with the aim of conveying a particular phenomenon, theme, or meaning represented by the meme.[4] A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices, that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme. Supporters of the concept regard memes as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate, and respond to selective pressures.[5]

I wonder what the legal grounds are for this, my guess is since Disney owns the copyright they could basically just download his images and sell them? After all the artists is trying to create unauthorized Star Wars art does the artists have any legal protection to his creation if he is trying to expressedly create an already copyrighted work?

I don't think he wants any money for this. Some guy stole his art, and Disney paid that guy for the art he stole. I think all Sponge wants is some due credit or to have them apologize I guess? I don't think he even wants that though. It seems like he's just pissed that a big time company resorted to something so shitty which only adds up to their shittier decisions as of late. Lucasfilm seems to be run solely by idiots now.

If Disney was smart, which they aren't, they'd send a legal threat to the "artist" threatening to sue him if he doesn't return what they paid him and offer Fractalsponge what they paid the plagiarist if he signs something saying he won't sue or start shit.
