arrangement of an object in space Sorry, I can't resist. No, you can't. Can you create a set of clothes on your own that look like Anton's and distribute them on your site. Yes. Why? Because you are highly unlikely to be able to recreate the exact vertice count, or the hand strokes used by Anton to make the clothes or the exact process he used to make it, or the exact same cuts for grouping or much of anything else, assuming you have the same level of skill and the identical software setup it is still highly unlikely that anything you create would be an exact replica of Anton's mesh. Why? Because this is not reliant only on "objects in space" like preset lights and predefined dial parameter limits but on a personal skill and ability, software and process. If you can create anything exactly as the original author in the form of a mesh I would be more than stunned. So, yes you can copyright a mesh. Anton is perfectly safe in copyrighting his mesh secure in the knowledge that anyone accurately replicating his mesh using his techniques with an identical set-up, hand strokes, process, method, plugin and parameter settings as he has used is so infinitesmal as to be foregone in conclusion that it is a copy. This is one reason why the Assassins, Spy and FFantasy suits are so different yet based on the same idea. Anton and Steve Shanks are very close to each other on design, but completely different on implementation, style and method, not to mention probably software. The example you use is ludicrous because of these very reasons.
