UPDATE: The thief has complied and removed it from his gallery. I'm not entirely certain he's truly sorry, rather sorry he got caught, but frankly the artwork is removed and that is all I require. Thank you, everyone who backed me up on this and asked him to remove the stolen art. I hate that it came to that. But, now I can just let this pass and move on to better things. Again, thank you for your support.A repost!
I am reposting this because someone decided to 1) post it in their gallery 2) sell prints of it and 3) take credit for the art when people complimented it. The funny part is, the person didn't even remove the "gotbob" at the bottom of the art! Which is how someone was able to figure out the theft and report it to me. Steps have been taken to get the stolen art removed.
First off, I don't actually like this drawing. I really sort of hate it. It's how I drew the llama's, it doesn't feel right to me. I much prefer llama part two :
[link]Also, this drawing alone has created all sorts of headaches for me, including this recent discovery of it being stolen. (Plus, the knowledge that this thief possibly made money off of me). But, originally, the real headache was that this drawing got put up on Reddit and Buzzfeed... WITH NO LINK TO THE ORIGINAL SOURCE! (This was the reason I now put my link on the art). So, basically, it got popular and no one even knew who drew it. Again, my own fault, live and learn. But, suffice it to say, I hate this drawing. But, I hate art theft more, so here it shall stay.

Her last message was "Nothing,Forget it but this image is original because contains Ola k ase so I think it's over and I came out victorious Honey"
Haha, what a fool one xD
Thanks again for the alert
Thank you for letting me know. I'm asking her to remove it of her own free will, but if she doesn't I will report it.
I will eternally regret making this art, haha.
anyways i had to look for it for like 15 minutes before realizing the url was on the bottom of another copy i found elsewhere on the web
also the fact that this was stolen and then tooken down makes since because i was accidentally led to another artist and 1. his art style did not match up, and 2. it was not in his gallery XD
sorry for the long story, anyways i wanted to look for you because I thought it would be fun to pixel these versions of the llamas as fake badges for fun and i need permission so can i please
Still, I'm glad you took the time to find me, I appreciate that. And yes, you have my permission to pixelate any of these. As long as credit is given for the originals (and I wouldn't mind a link to this, more traffic is never something I'll turn down, haha)
Again, thanks for finding me and for enjoying my arts
