:[ My Harry Potter Replicas ]:
Added 2020-02-21 20:08:18 +0000 UTCHello all!
Firstly, I need to apologies to you all for missing the past two weeks of replica pages!
The first week I scheduled the post and apparently it failed to upload, then last week I completely forgot! I am very sorry to leave you without, but I will be making up for it tonight by posting all 3 sets at once :] I will be doing so shortly.
Unfortunately, I also have to announce something a little less happy. Once again, I have been sent links to other people selling my content (my own work and designs, not including the minalima covers, etc) on Etsy, eBay, and other online platforms. Thank you very much to all who have done so, as it is important that I know about it. The sad thing is that upon looking into one of the links in particular, PDF pages were included in a sale that I have only uploaded here and nowhere else. I hate pointing the finger, and I honestly wish that it wasn't the case, but this means that one of my past or current Patrons is either the seller, or has provided the seller with these pages. This makes me sad :[
I want to be honest with all of you as I am so thankful for your support, but if this kind of thing continues, I may be forced to stop sharing my PDFs at all. I love that so many people want them, but selling them (in some cases pretending to me to do so) really hurts.
If you do come across any of my replicas for sale, or my work for sale anywhere other than via my official websites, I would really appreciate you doing all you can to stop it. Report, contact, or just let me know, whichever you are most comfortable doing
Thank you, Jack.

It is really sad that people do this but I'm not surprised. Every day on IG, I see people touting copies of products ripped right off of Kickstarter. People really have no shame. I've seen it for products I've invested in, people complaining about them being low quality because they bought a rip off of the item. I agree with Cass and their idea that you should use a lower resolution or watermark on your PDF pages, should you continue to share them.
2020-03-24 12:06:06 +0000 UTCIt's such a shame. We are lucky enough to still get the pdf's and someone is trying to ruin it for everyone. Will do my best to spread the word of fake copies. It's always a pleasure to view your work and I hope one day I am able to own legitimate copies. The wait(however long) is worth the quality, beauty and integrity of the art. Best Wishes! -Chris
2020-02-23 06:02:39 +0000 UTCThe fact this has to be said again is beyond disappointing. Especially when thinking about how much time you've put into each of the pages you share and the level of work that goes into each of your projects. I'm happy to pay to support you and purchase your replicas because they are worth the price and you as the artist made such an investment. The price is worth the time, effort, and love that goes into them. The PDFs are a joy I look forward to but I'll completely understand if you stop. If it helps, I've seen other Patreon creators post low-resolution images of their work and/or add a transparent watermark right over the middle of the image. Just know there are people who stand with you and support you. :)
