Hi, I feel he/she should be warned first as he/she isn't copying and pasting the artwork of others' work completely, he/she is inspired by others' artwork and recreated them. You can visually see that the artist( Hive account@rowdyrreedd ) has a unique shading style.

He/she is a newcomer and downvoting without warning to Reputation 7, is almost like sending them away from Hive. Such talents should be warned at least twice and if they don't follow the warning, then downvoting is justice.

I have just checked through his/her last 7 contents and I don't see an outright plagiarism.

If you believe it is an outright copy of others' artwork, then cool to downvote, is the right decision. If not outright copy and paste, giving a warning is the best decision.

I love Hive account@hivewatchers, and what it is doing for the Hive community and I myself have reported a couple of plagiarised content creators here on Hive.

I support newbies here on Hive and flag those who only want to profit off the Hive system, I don't like to see talented newbie users flagged when they don't know that they need to add a reference image or link to the image that inspired their artwork. We shouldn't discourage them.

I hope you reconsider your decision Hive account@hivewatchers and continue to do the amazing work you have been doing here in the Hive community.

Cheers!
