# It's nothing to do with mofaha.
In fact it looks nothing like one of his posts :\

# Hahah, seriously, I'm not attempting anything like his stuff with this.
This is all mine.

# I love how you immediately
assumed that's what Dixon meant, suggesting that it was on your mind the whole time.

Dixon may well have been simply saying he'd prefer it noisy!

# Given the response I get for any single thing I post, I was expecting someone to reply with a reference to mofaha.
That doesn't suggest that I am lying when I say I am not borrowing from his style, because nothing in this image was influenced in any way by mofaha.

# If you believe that
you should probably stop drawing anything for a week, stay off the internet, and then come back and look at it again. This will have two major benefits: you'll stop taking everything people you've never and will never meet quite so seriously, and you'll see that consciously or not this post has been incredibly strongly influenced by mofaha.

# Well what are the similarites with mofaha?
The shape? It was originally on its side, I rotated it so it was upright.
Then I removed the right half of the image because it was all background. That's all.
The path shapes? That's nothing like mofaha's.
The all-consuming shadow? Just so that it'll blend in better with the background and save me from spending God knows how long on a vexel that could have taken me as short a time as this one did.
That's all.

honestly. it looks like mofaha's stuff, ergo people think you're influenced by mofaha's stuff, which you clearly are. do i give a fuck you're influenced by mofaha? no, not at all.

# Sorry, but
my pattern-recognising human brain suggests a similarity, whether intentional or not.

It's probably the chiaroscuro vector graphics with slight gradients.

Woo, nonetheless.

# Whilst I agree that it does borrow a lot from the yank,
I think that there are worse places a young man can be taking pointers from.

How much is truly original in the post modernist era?

This one, maybe
But not the one at the top of this thread.
It was just easier to colour all the shadow in black so it wouldn't look wrong against the background.
And he's not a yank, either :P
