Hey guys i was wondering if anyone know what sort of leeway there is in regards to creating art and sculptors and then selling / publishing. I would assume that if its your own work its fine and obviously not a direct copy of something of blizzard. I assume if you make such art the naming rights are probably owned by blizzard so you couldn't name a piece so and so Diablo or Tyreal. Anyone though about this much? I have just been playing around with my laser engraver and its turning out pretty cool.
Anyway if anyone has the legal knowledge of this it would be really interesting to learn a bit more about it.
Yeah I'm pretty sure you need a license from Blizzard if you plan to sell anything related to their universes. I don't know how strict the rules are though, I suppose you could potentially call something a "devil statue" and have some similarities to Diablo without getting in trouble. I dunno where the line is drawn though. I'm far from an expert.
Overall I think they are pretty protective about anything relating to their brand.
