Just to be clear on this: If I were to create a CG story--a series of 2D renders--and some of the assets I used were licensed for non-commercial use only, I might be in violation of copyright if my story appeared on e.g. a subscription-type comic website. Yes? No? Maybe?

Right now this is a purely academic question since I'm still getting my toes wet, but I have been buying and downloading content like a kid in a candy store. If my skills ever reach the stage where that kind of 'publishing' is a possibility, I'd hate to find out the hard way that I broke the law.

Comments and/or futher clarification would be most welcome. Thanks in advance!
