Every month or so, Alex Kovas posts videos and photos of some of his performances using our prosthetics (muzzles, ears, tails, etc)

He never gives credit to us. He'll credit other artists who've made costume pieces for him or did makeup application, but never anything to us. He won't link to our channel, or ( Read more... )

2 things you could do (I would do)

One, don't sell the guy any more. Or sell to him at full price. If he has interest in promoting everyone else but you, just explain that you have no interest, feel like you're being snubbed when everyone else gets credited except for your work.
Perhaps the whole "furry thing" makes him not want to link to you or your site.

Two, fuck him, use photos, video etc on your website of him. Permission or not, he honestly can't stop you. You're not lying, he is using your products and you showing examples of that on your website is fine.
Particularly videos on youtube, he's put them up there. Then they are available for public use.

I'd do one last ditch effort to get some credit from the guy before pulling the plug.
The ball in your court, if you pull the plug, where will he gets his custom stuff from.

I'm probably going to demand he adds a link to us in every video where he used our stuff, or else he'll receive no further discounts or freebies.

As for using the photos, I'll probably leave that be unless he refuses the credit, he's in the UK, so it's not like he has any power to stop me. We should get something in return for what we've done for him. Without our pieces, he loses alot of the allure of his act.

Did you get the email I'd sent?
