Trisha looks charming. I can see though where copyright issues can be complicated. In general you simply cant use another person's work as your own. I'm a writer, and someone else cant copy a paragraph from my novel and pretend it's his own work. On the other hand, he could quote my work in an essay, or even in his own novel, if it isnt extensive and has attribution. Plotlines, character quirks, literary tricks are wide open--just dont borrow my language. But in these characters? I often flip a texture map from one character to another. Eyes, too. Or I will alter the color of the map, or some details. I'm sure I can use this for my eyes only--I sit here at the computer gloating over my work, no one cares but me--but can I toss the video up to YouTube? With different body and face textures, her original waist morphed into a tiny circle, legs lengthened, etc--the original purchased figure so modified that the original creator probably wouldnt recognize it--is that still legal? And what if I charge for views? I've been presuming I can buy a figure and modify it any way I wish--this goes for props too--and use it freely in my own published videos. But is this acceptible? I understand I cant sell or give away the figure itself, or its texture maps, I cant modify a texture map and give it away, I cant make a Trisha figure like charlie43 has done, using someone else's texture maps, and offer it around--but if I put together such a figure, could I use her in a video, or illustration, and sell that?
