Just saw this on the 3D Palette General forum posted by Pixel-NV (thanks for the heads up).. want to share it here...
http://www.razim.net/kosh/

Its a resume site..but uh... isn't a resume site supposed to contain ORIGINAL art work? And not by Mr. Spooge, Micke, et all?

....sigh!

thats pathetic.......this has got to be a goof....im sure the layout is taken from someplace else....the photo has to be some poor schlub from the net....hmmm but then again.....thats just sad....

Flinthawk · Posted: Thu Mar 01, 2001 1:57 pm

Un-fucking-believable.

Who does this guy think he's kidding (yeah, yeah, I know there're people out there that fall for this shit...can we say Gabe Reiser?) I must say that that's some pretty decent BS written up in his resume but all that by the age of 19...BWAAAHAHAHAHAHA. And the fool has a picture of himself up there so we can all hunt him down now

It's sad to see that this kinda thing happens...

Oh yeah, I also got a chuckle outta the fact that he wants to work 'remotely' so he can work from his current residence (read as: so he can rip of his artwork in private).

Yeah, this really does seem too far out there to be real...that it's probably nothing more than a joke but I'm waiting to see what develops from this. I only hope that it is a joke...

-HoodZ- · Posted: Thu Mar 01, 2001 2:06 pm

id say someone put that up to get everyone riled up....plus the picture of himself is gone....that kinda gave it away....nice try though....

Keely · Posted: Thu Mar 01, 2001 2:23 pm

This has surely got to be a joke..this kid can't even spell Pirate or Fantasy...;) and I see no way to contact him...not a very good sign that he is really looking for a job..;) Maybe I am just overlooking his contact info....Anyway I really hope this is not for real. Keely

Well, here's the culprit (if he is one and this isn't a hoax):

Awww... he took the image down. Well, it's a good thing I snagged a copy. I have it at work, and I'll post it once I get back to the office >8)

seems like rather a lot of effort to put into a bad joke

Painted Melody · Posted: Thu Mar 01, 2001 3:03 pm

Looks like "Adam Kosh" removed his contact info... (So he must be either monitoring 3DP forum or this forum.)

I knew this capture would come in handy:

Jason · Posted: Thu Mar 01, 2001 9:22 pm

Oh and did any body notice he left his phone number behind. heheh!!! (250) 741-1364. Even a 6 year old knows you dont go rippen peoples stuff off!

this brings back memories.

Rinaldo · Posted: Thu Mar 01, 2001 10:44 pm

Awwww.. I missed it

Next time this happens someone should save the whole page, then we can have an exposure site for these scum sucking wankers. Dunno if it will help the situation much but these people usuialy just take everything down and start talking BS excuses. if there was as site dedicated to exposing people like this is would maybe open a few eyes. like the Swipe of the week page for comics^_^.

and if it is a joke, I'm not laughing. there's enough of the real deal.

ArtsFartsy said "this brings back memories."

Why does it bring back memories?

Lame!

Pat · Posted: Fri Mar 02, 2001 2:12 am

Jeeeezus! It's no wonder with crap like that going on goodbrush.com is down.

Someone needs to find this Adam Kosh fella and club him like a baby seal.

WTF?!

How the hell do these low-life scums expect to actually deliver artwork equal to the calibur of the images they ripped off? I mean, VERY few people can paint like Craig(even among professionals), so if he uses Craig's images for his portfolio, wouldn't his clients look at what he actually paints for a project and say, "That looks NOTHING like your portfolio pieces."???

Rhythmeen · Posted: Fri Mar 02, 2001 2:01 pm

So goodbrush.com is down because of digital theft? I was wondering why i couldn't reach it... I was trying to show his site to a friend who was wondering about the difference between pshop and painter.. or is the site down because of another reason?

Im gonna call him.

Flinthawk · Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2001 12:10 am

Lunatique, notice in my earlier reply that I pointed out that he asked for a remote position with a company so that he could 'work' from home...he was at least a little smarter than Gabe Reiser (btw, Jason, do a search on the Archives for Gabe Reiser and you'll see why this brings back memories...). Instead of trying to get a job onsite where he'd be found out easily he wanted to work from the privacy of his own home where he could rip off other people's artwork at his leisure.

Pat · Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2001 1:48 am

I don't think anyone has a definite reason that boodbrush.com is down. What I do know is that Craig has posted several times about his misgivings concerning his "look" and painting style being co-opted across the internet. I was reading some old posts in the archive and noticed that this has been an ongoing issue for at least a year. Now, added on top of all the style-chasers his work is being stolen outright. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the straw that broke the camel's back, as it were.

I think we should nuke the muthafucka's computer with a virus and call his house day and night until he checks into a mental institution. Also Noguchi's work is a completely different style than Mullins anyone with half a brain would notice this. Obviously Adam didn't notice because he put em up. I really can't belive this, it's one thing to be a style chaser, but to steal master works, is absolutely out of line. And furthermore did he really think no one would notice that he had ripped off a Spoogarific painting.

Freddio · Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2001 12:06 am

But I mean how dumb can this guy be?

and what happens when he gets work and he paints some shit house thing???

S4Sb · Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2001 3:42 am

Is there actually a punishment for that? I mean, if it had turned out that he isn't that good... would he be punished by the law?
