Animal Crossing New Horizons Redd’s Paintings & Statues Guide: How To Distinguish Between Real and Counterfeits?

The month of September traditionally welcomes the Fall Season and its festivities in the Northern Hemisphere of the island. But it looks like the expected Animal Crossing New Horizons patch is delayed this time around, with rumors suggesting an end-of-the-month arrival for the Fall update.

As the community waits for Nintendo to announce new content along with the date, Redd has made his way back to the secret beach on the island. Jolly Redd runs a shady artwork shop where he tries to sneak in counterfeits along with a few originals to his customers. But the fox’s cunningness has its limits, and there are a few uncommon tricks to identify a fake and beat Crazy Redd at his own game.

Here’s all you and your visitors need to know to not be deceived by the little menace in Animal Crossing New Horizons.

All paintings and statues that are not features on the lists will not have any forged versions and can be purchased without thinking twice. The fox was not smart enough to make copies of all the artwork.
