does every good artist in here working together?

#1

I visited this website and saw few images from CGSociety.

www.thepixelstudios.com

I’m just wondering alot of artist working with them

Sometimes artists contract their work out to third party studios, and sometimes unscrupulous studios pass other artists work off as their own. I’m not sure which scenario this is, but its being investigated.

When you see a company with such a fancy website filled with those damn pictures out of some stock shots catalogues, with a smiling team of winners, a hi-class renderfarm and some shiny desks you can ask yourself if this whole thing isn’t a facade or what.

Then you think “eh, some need this to define themselves, not anyone can be Keith Richard”.
You keep on browsing the content of this uber class company and you realise you know those works in the studio’s gallery from some folks over CG talk. And then you see your own stuff!! Amazing.

So you write to them but they won’t answer. Nope.
And you write again, but it doesn’t change a thing.

“take me to your leader, make me really happy…”

We’ve tried contacting the site owners but all of the email addresses bounce. I’d hazard a guess and say that this “studio” is in fact one guy who’s nicked a bunch of stuff from other sites and probably outsources any work he gets to other artists.

Unfortunately, there’s almost nothing we can do about it.

I did a quick domain search and the administrative contact is Jayson Brown and you can email him at info@skyblueinteractive.com, but I’m sure that will probably bounce back too.

Enjoy.
