Another note! perhaps tong and Kula_Wendy are the same people! That Cloud looks awfully the same..Hmmm.

Could it be that he finished the model long ago, then decided to join Qhimm. Also the source image that I mentioned earlier does appear that the top banner of his makeshift site, it does not appear to be ripped from a video...It does beg the Question: Are Tong and Kula_Wendy two one person?

EDIT: I have sent a message to Tong to clarify if he ever gave his models to anyone, As far as I can tell the models are identical in every way meaning he might have stole them to begin with! This is truly horrible! not only is he not a good 3D artist but he is a thief of countless peoples works!. O_O To think I used to look up to him.

Topaz is entirely Tong's creation

No I absolutely think the TOng would be able to model/texture any mod without ripping them off from anyone. I used to read his blog (despite being in broken english/another language) He's posted a million renders of other models he's made. Allot of them Final Fantasy characters.

In no way would I believe a guy capable of that would just slap a bunch of other people's work together. Besides he has his own model of cloud why would he want to rip off mine? Kula_wende's website just uses artwork created by Tong.
 
But I was more speaking on the Cloud model itself, Kula_Wendy made a Cloud for the field (not yours) that resembled exactly the model used by Tong! as well as tong finished a Vincent model that concededly Kula_Wendy was working on a Vincent model as well...before he left!.

I believe Tong and Kula_Wende are from different countries (Thailand and the Philippines respectively). Unless Kula_Wende is fluent in both Thai and Tagalog (as well as English) he'd have a hard time juggling these two personas.
 
I realize I have little room to claim it as "my" model but it's quite apparent to me that he's using the Tifa model I put together out of pre-existing materials and texture/uv map edits. Quite personally I don't care that he's using it as I have little intention of ever attempting to do anything with it myself anymore. You would not believe the amount of emails and pms you get asking for more characters, all the party member's characters, or heck I even had several people asking me if I'd replace EVERY model in FF7. I stopped replying to the messages long ago but they still come every now and then.

I can only imagine what Apz may have got in his pm and email amounts.

I must admit the only reason I've decided to show my face around here again is because of the surprising return of Apz Freak. I must say it's a pleasure to have him here yet again.

Anyway to avoid getting to far off-topic, I do agree he is using things he stole from elsewhere and he probably didn't do much if any of the work in modding FF7 at all. He probably just dowloaded a lot of stuff and tried to pull profit out of it. I also agree that trying to get Square to bust him may leak over to Qhimm.com getting some problems.

Most likely he will eventually get caught on his own, and even if he continues this for some time to come it has little affect on our everyday lives and I see little reason to worry about it.
