We were informed by one of our fan regarding the issue where a local restaurant used our artwork on their food packagings. They removed our watermark at the bottom and added in their restaurant's name "From The Junk Management". 

Above is our original artwork

This is what the restaurant did to our artwork (Cropping out the watermark and added their restaurant's name)

We manage to contact The Junk management. However, they choose not to response to us after we dropped them a quotation.

In case you wondered where's the restaurant, feel free to drop by their FB - The Junk Restaurant and "Rate" them :D

This post will stay up online until the issue is resolved.

Last but not least, SAY NO TO PLAGIARISM!

By the way, someone printed our artwork on a cake too. Well, we don't really mind but can we have a share of the cake too?
