Hello! I just wanted to share some KI art I’ve done. You might have noticed some of these as avatars people use on this forum, or maybe on twitter if you follow the KI account. Thought you guys would enjoy them!
@BigBadAndy I basically woke up (after sleeping in because the KI Grand finals lasted til nearly 2 am) and worked on the new Eyedol on and off all afternoon.
@FallofSeraphs76 I have mixed feelings about people making stuff from my fanart, even if tis just for them. For the record whatever shirt you got off Ebay wasn’t made by me. I would LOVE to make shirts or sticker of these things, but since it’s not my IP I don’t feel comfortable doing so.
If you have your work copyrighted you can. But since you dont even have a watermark on your files… I dont think you can do anything.
You could get a lawyer and send a cease and desist letter for starters… but being you yourself dont have permission to copy right the characters… Im not sure.
If it were your own character creation you would definitely need copyright and watermark all your pics.
But to do someone else’s work via your interpretation… you would need there written permission first before you were able to watermark and copyright it as if it were yours.
Its really no different than a band doing a cover song and selling it for a Toyota commercial… uhhhh… not gonna work… original artist is going to take a good chunk of that money. And if you dont ask for their permission…they will get sued.
Sometimes doing free art interpretations and allowing people to use it is a good stepping stone to get your foot in the door for your real art that you yourself created and own the IP.
There is a KI player on here that does Tshirts on Etsy… he does all the KI characters silhouette but no logos. Its gets people in the door to buy his other stuff.
Nicky V where the Fulgore shirt all the time. Its pretty cool
I had, at one point, had plans on doing a Super Street Fighter 2 set… but I made it part of a reward tier on my Patreon but it never got that much traction. (it’s not there anymore) Maybe someday i’ll do that or someone will commission it becauseI think it would be fun!
Just 1 on it’s own a regular chibi would be $10. If someone ordered that many characters at once I would give a slight discount, but I couldn’t say what that would be right now.
