Looks like they heavily referenced several screenshots and traced a couple things here.
Can I just say that being able to recognize stolen imagery is a curse?
Even hyenaphiles are tracing to get into the contest.. Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse. I think it was a mistake to make this contest if all Threadless is going to get is art theft and uncreativity.
And then this happened. If you guys want to enter a T Shirt design and are a fan of TLK, check it out.
And thank you for pointing out art theft like this on weheartit.com

Artist comments: So anyways, here what I imagine Princess Celestia as a TLK Lioness (( The Lion King )) she is beautiful mare so I did the Beautiful Lioness base! so anyways,
Clearly he hasn’t seen TLK before. Otherwise he’d know he used a Nala base.
deviantArt member Jingleberryy has taken to stealing characters, recoloring characters and art trades(if you can call frankentraces art trades) and recoloring them into their characters. The ones showcased here are originally from TLK Source member and over all nice person SilverBreeze. She’s already been alerted about this situation but won’t be back to answer messages till the 9th of this month. In the mean time, don’t let this baser fool you with her ‘neat edits’.
I was alerted to this chode when I asked them if they were from TLK Source because I had recognized the renders from SilverBreeze, they then blocked me without hesitation. Some of their reposts have since been deleted. But what astonishes me is that this person is a 17 year old that’s stealing characters and recoloring them.
