F2Andy Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Each sheet says on it: "Unauthorised distribution, copying, downloading, commercial exploitation or modification by the purchaser or any third party of this file or printout is strictly prohibited." Does "modification by the purchaser" mean I have to follow the instructions exactly (allowing for options)? Does it mean "commercial ... modification" so I can do what I want, as long as it is just for me? For instance: I have purchased the factory warehouse. Can I add an extra floor, modify the image on my computer to give it a unique company name? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenton Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Just think it is badly phrased: "Unauthorised distribution copying downloading modification by the purchaser or any third party of this file or printout for commercial exploitation is strictly prohibited."

bertiedog Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 No problem , you can use any kit as a basis of a model in any way you please, copyright has absolutely nothing to do with this! Copyright is the right of the original designers to maintain commercial rights, not to stop you using the kit as you please!! Just do not sell the original as your work! Do not take copyright as any more complex, it is only complex when items are sold that are then copied for sale elsewhere. Stephen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve K Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 It's just as well, really - otherwise, every kit I'd ever made a mess of would be a serious breach of copyright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
