Hello! Your 3D work looks great!
--- I would like you to confirm if the background image you used is the same I found here. I will be waiting for your reply. Thanks a lot!

Hello @eugelys ! Thanks for the kind words.
Yes, the background, though highly modified, is based on that very background that you've spotted.
I have updated the post to include a link and attribution back to the url that you included. I apologize if I forgot to include it, and will definitely make sure that any elements will be attributed in future posts. I am new here, but a fast learner.
Thank you for your quick response. I recommend that you use royalty-free images in future opportunities to adjust nTOPAZ's copyright policies. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us! Thanks again!
The line between Royalty Free / Creative Commons is a thin one. I'm a big fan of both for different reasons, and definitely have subscriptions to many royalty free sites. I'll definitely try to stick to more of those.
Gotta say that I'm very impressed that a)Ntopaz's curators are so passionate about copyright (as a person who's had lots of work stolen without attribution, etc.. I have much appreciation for this). b)That you were able to spot a specific incident- and the specific image. Very impressive.
I am sorry to hear that you have been a victim of plagiarism :( Your work is very creative and full of quality. I wish you continued success! Thank you for sharing your great talent!

Actually, that's the same image... but not the same URL -- I got it from the original authoring site: https://www.maxpixel.net/Brick-Abstract-Background-Black-Architecture-3592117
