1) That was, god, nearly a year ago; That skin also never released judging by game database. The Deftones skin is also incredibly old.
2) This is just a butcher's map on the same pose with a knife halo, which is a common skin motif that Ezevic also played with previously. Deftones doesn't own the concept of butcher maps and knife halos, and Ezevic said this was based on a recently released, at the time, song she seemingly liked. After that message she also made some adjustments to further divorce the design from Deftone's, like adding a splatter on the head instead of the skull. She also was TOLD there is a skin with a similar design right after that adjustment, after which she stopped. Can you not hide context.
3) When you do an overlay (to the best of my ability due to image sizes) it's very clearly not traced, nor copied. If you Google "butcher map" you'll get this type of image, which is the more likely reference here.

jesus. imagine wanting to frame someone sooo bad that you go and dig up non-evidence from nearly a year ago and then say yourself that it's your "most recent example"
genuinely why do so many people have such a hateboner @ ezevic. this happened with the collab fumble too.
I agree with you. I always thought Ezevic was super chill and I'm so confused by this.
Local salt miners upset that someone made a mistake and other people saw it?? Congrats on being perfect and never fumbling anything in your lives, I guess lmao. Give it a rest.
