    I think that looks like a merbellas tail being used and I also see a costume from another designer

    Out of curiosity, I contacted the seller to see if she would actually claim she made those Merbella tails or if they were just 'examples'. And yep she says they are her's!


    She has already gotten a bad review from someone because she took their money but didn't deliver a tail!

    I sent her a message straight out telling her to take down the stolen photos, I've screen capped everything and messaged Merbella Studios and MerNation accordingly.

    Yeah I know... I've contacted Firefly Path about one of the stolen designs. I haven't yet matched up any of the other work she claims.

    That's ridiculous! The designer of some of the costume designs she has stolen has also contacted her asking her to take them down. Why do people do that!! And then blatantly lie and claim it's theirs when there's clear evidence it's not... :/

    When you are inspired by an artist's work your piece never turns out exactly the same. You style shows up in your work . you can tell a merbellas from a finfolk from a mertailor. This, this is just silly. I feel bad for anyone ordering from her expecting a merbellas and getting something else. False advertising and theft.

    Now she has a Mike Van Daal tail and Lotus' fluke sculpt. I contacted her ages ago. Guess she never learned her lesson.

    Urgh that burns me up!! I saw before a long time ago, she was useing Ilonka's photo to sell tails and I contacted Ilonka on DeviantArt and Instagram to let her know about it. I guess she ended up taking her photos down but just moved on to stealing others

    FYI, here's the DMCA for Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/legal/ip/report If you see a photo that belongs to someone else on Etsy and message them about it, include the link so they can get things taken down quickly.
