Following its successful release, the Outlaws NFT collection also faces copyright-related problems. Recently, the\u00a0 NFT community accused the project of copying Western artists\u2019 styles, including NFT creator Jeremy Booth. Surprisingly, these allegations revealed an insight into Western NFT arts<\/a> and their true value right now!<\/p>\n Outlaws is among the latest sold-out PFP collectible projects of the season. In terms of design, these digital artworks carry iconic Western traits and a Wild West vibe, which were very well received by the community.<\/p>\n However, it didn\u2019t take long until the project faced backlash for allegedly plagiarizing another Western artist\u2019s style: Jeremy Booth.<\/p>\n Brooth is one of the leading NFT artists known for his minimalist art centered on Western culture.<\/p>\n According to some NFT collectors, the Outlaws creators copied Brooth\u2019s cinematic vision and should face charges for plagiarism. In addition, Outlaws accordingly used Jeremy Booth\u2019s name in promotional content by tagging him and mentioning him in DM\u2019s.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m pretty conflicted about that new PFP collection that\u2019s a pretty obvious reproduction of what another artist is doing here. I know that his style isn\u2019t new, and I know that the subject matter isn\u2019t new\u2026 but together? Was kind of that artist\u2019s thing, no? A Moral grey area,\u201d<\/em> said NFT collector @SADBOI.<\/p>\n This kind of statement inspired other traders to investigate Western art history and its evolution. Many users concluded that this Western art style had existed long before Booth or Outlaws, so plagiarism would be out of the question.<\/p>\n Last week, the Outlaws founders also addressed the promotional content tagging issue:<\/p>\n \u201cWe DM\u2019d Jeremy to offer his boots holders a mint. We also RT\u2019d his Tweet saying he isn\u2019t affiliated \u2013 we\u2019ve never tried to pass of that we are him and have been clear on that,\u201d<\/em> the team wrote in a tweet.<\/p>\n Jeremy Booth later confirmed there are no copyright issues whatsoever regarding Outlaws.<\/p>\n![\"Image](\"https:\/\/nftevening.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/western-artists-nft.png.webp)
