Thanks for sharing this! I find it exciting assets from active projects to appear hear. I have always loved BG's and JaggedAlliance2's item descriptions. "Man-at-arms Anterlach" is already the beginning for an interesting item description :)
For some reason I find mostly UK resources on "Design copyright" I use this as a basis for now.
It might violate copyright if "the shape, texture, colour, materials used, contours and ornamentation" would be similar. Since this is a lowpoly 3D model, only "shape" seems to be relevant for now.
I compare this model with a model of a Warhammer 40k space marine and a StarCraft marine. I come to the conclusion that Julius' model resembles WH40k's marine look no less than and SC's marine look does.
I assume that there was no settlement between the two and also assume that it would be very likely to find many examples of similar designs in games of different ownerships on the level as this model and SC marines have with WH40k that did not lead to legal complications, to safely assume that this model does not violate the rights of Games Workshop.
Does this sound good to you?
One could ask GW what they think of this. (I will not :) )
On the other hand, you sometimes want to force people to provide .psd/.blend/.xcf, and GPL seems to be the only license forcing this :(

Well, thanks for your concern, Anonymous!

psychedelic texture :D pretty impressive
These are pretty cool! :)
How did you make them?
Great :) I agree that cc0 might be a good addition to any content sharing site. Sometimes it's just appropriate :)
Please let him know by commenting on that article.
Blenderswap recently posted a request for discussing license choices over there.
I think you people should comment on the article with your opinion regarding that topic.
I think the best would be if it took over OGA's licensing options ^^
It appears that gladius.s decided to give it a try! I love what he did there! :)
What is the error?
