Quote - Well one of my favourite illustrators is Dean Yeagle. I love the way he does faces and expressions. I wanted to create a figure morph in Zbrush emulating the style, obviously not duplicating the character but along those lines. I mainly wanted to emulate the mouth nose and eye styling on a different character. But if doing so is going to be an infringment then I'd rather not.
It's already for sale at Daz.
I know it's splitting hairs, but for whatever reason I'm more comfortable with the idea of people ripping off Frank Millers work than Yeagles. Ethically, I know it's the same. Maybe it's that I remember Yeagles work from posting on the drawing board with Shane Glines, Bruce Timm and the rest of them, so they're more human and real to me and less some distant bstract well compensated creator. Again, no ethical difference, just for some reason I'm less comfortable with it.
