Fred always struck me as a very unpretentious guy John.  Good to hear it so.
I'd love to see a DCM banner by him.  :)

Well, I had him draw this one. Do we need his permission to use it - I can never figure out the copyright on commissions.

My understanding is that copyright only gets transferred by contract ("work for hire" being the obvious biggie), so if you can't figure it out, you probably don't have it.

I guess. If anyone is interested, I can ask him directly. LMK

Yoc:
Hi Roy,
SURE, please do.  I think I could make it work with the DCM logo.
BTW, that King-Size Sentinels by Michael Maikowsky commission is AMAZING!!

I was never sure if a person paid for a convention sketch could that sketch then be published or used in any other way without the permission of the artist?
