This is my Birthday gift for Ariel-X. I hope you like it Björn. But everybody can use it. Modeled about 10 months ago. I made this just for fun (3d modeling is always fun) and used the model never so far in a 3d render. Obj. file highly detailed; I would be curious to see this in one of your images. ________________________________________________________________ 03.29.2013 I updated the model and fixed the bug. The 3d model is now fit for import into Daz-Studio 4.5 and Bryce 7.
I found this model comercialy used in Second life ,sold as 3d model [link] If you didnt give comercial use rights to that merchant i sugest you file DMCA against him/her thru Linden labs [link] to get model removed from second life!
Thanks for letting me know! It's not the first time of copyright violation of my work. Going the way through DMCA would be very troublesome and I won't do this. I'm sure not many people will buy it, because my 3d modeling work isn't really skillful so far. The only thing I will do is changing the license for commercial use.
Nevertheless I'm totally annoyed about this and I'm in serious consideration if I should furthermore offer new 3d models for free!
Your modeling skills are awsome! Human tree sculpture is amazing if i may say so! As for licence i would sugest you add in description of model that it is not permited to use it as 3d model in 3d enviroments like SL and games for comercial porposes,only to be used for graphics rendering! That specific merchant in SL has nasty habbit of snaching any free model online and seling it as his own work! There are manny like him in Sl but linden labs is sorting it out,more DMCA reports faster they will root out theifs!
Thanks for the kind words. It makes no sense to licence only for artwork; the thieves don't respect this. As I said I will do nothing; it's not really that much important. I create digital art just for fun and each lawsuit would kill the fun permanently.
