Nothing personal, just trying to clarify in my own mind. I feel if I have drawings done to my specs, I own the drawings, since I paid a fee to get them done. Now if the artist wants to use the drawings to promote the work he does on a genneralized basis, then to me thats cool. But if the artist now thinks he owns the work and sells the drawings that were made for me then I have a problem with that, am I wrong?

Makes sense to me. The only time I've "sold" images that I had specifically done for a customer was when a company wanted catalog art. It was actually of Scott's car. I contacted him and even got his name credited as the owner of the car (if I remember correctly.) I've concluded, based on both discussions around here and personal research, that if I ever wanted to go about selling prints of my work, it will be of non-commissioned work. That way there's no chance of any hurt feelings or legal ramifications.

Love the mag. Started my subscription way back when they were threatening to re-do project X again. At the time I was doing a 57. The mag has gotten better and better.

I even got a little ink in the hometown hotrodding section this month...Thanks Steve.

I am still trying to figure out how Jan, in Sweden, got his issue this month 5 days before mine. They must still be using the Pony Express across the Rockies.
