Respect Your Fellow Artists
As a vibrant and growing art community deviantART welcomes all kinds of original artworks; but we MUST insist that the artwork which you submit be your own original works.
Your deviations must be your own original creations and you may only use resources which are considered legitimate and legal. Submissions which make use of works without proper permission or licensing by the original author will be removed as they come to the attention of the staff. This policy applies to all Deviation submissions, Scrapbook entries, and the preview images used for written submissions.
If you have reason to believe that a deviantART submission violates this policy you should use the official Report Violation link which is available on every submission page.
Just saying who the picture belongs to isn't good enough, you NEED their permission in order to post these pictures. =/ This site isn't like photobucket or animegalleries, you're not allowed to post pictures that you didn't help to create; unless you get proper permission from the original artist.

Hey man, I have big doubts about the authenticity of your art. I hope it's only a misunderstanding. If not I wil not hesitate to report you.
Remember the DA rules about the copyrighted works. Here are the rules about the use of someone else work.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
