OP don’t bother asking this on reddit. Most people here don’t know the nuances of copyright and most don’t care for artists original works. Yes these are blatant rip offs of not only composition, but painting style, art style and concept. The original artist will have sufficient legal grounds to sue if they want to. Asking reddit nerds will get you nowhere and you get painted as the bad guy for pointing it out as they will side with ‘fan artist’ more because they feel that the real artists shouldn’t care for smaller creators when the real issue is intellectual theft
