Using a protected 3D model as a reference for your own one

Wait 5 sec.

LOCATION: France Not sure where to ask this: My friend is telling me that I'm stealing this model from Titancraft for copying it like this in Blockbench (a 3D modeling tool). I can't really see the issue.. I'm making a low poly version of it and I use this model only because I really like the body proportion, body proportions can't be something protected by copyrights or something right? If my question is not welcom here, can you help me where to find an answer?   submitted by   /u/Neoccat   to   r/legal [link]   [comments]
