Could anyone tell me if a 'looks like' character is infringing on someones copyright? for example I have created several models and morphs to create the characters from the harry potter movies. As such would that be trespassing on J.K Rowlings territory if I made the models available to others? Second, if I were to use as a base model, say one of the DAZ characters to create my own character, would that be trespassing even though the mesh, morphs, and textures are my originals? Example, I load victoria 3 into my c4d, then beside, create my model. (Like a sculpter using a model to get the general shape of his creation) If anyone could shed some light on this for me I would truly appreciate it. bobcat
