Quote - I very much agree with your thoughts on this, but unfortunately it's not the first I've heard of it. On the legality side, it isn't much different than if you were to make prints with your own characters and say a stonemason set is in the background. It's still covered under the commerical use aspect.

 

I tend to disagree. Usage is what is defined by the original copyright holder and if I made an image that had the set in the background, it wouldn't be marketed as a background to replace the original existing 3D scene. If they were my sets, rendo would know about it and I would do everything in my power to have the 2D products pulled. This marketplace is too small and niche to allow any kind of plagiarism like this IMO

Thanks for the TOS info, helps me in posting.
