first for JACKIE

personally I like her art and actually commission her every con

what is wrong with her art style I don't know?

I commission lots of artists though since I like a variety and depth of work

Quick question for artists here: If I pay an artist to draw a specific drawing for me am I able to take that and publish it in a compilation book of other art? Since I paid for it I would own it, correct?

>>8365392
No. You may have paid for it but unless they give you the rights to the drawing it is still technically theirs. And if you're planning on reselling it en-masse you're a horrible person. Don't resell other people's art, regardless of whether or not you commissioned it. It qualifies as fraud.

>>8365392
Jesus this is why contacts exist dumbass. You're going to publish work from someone else without even making it official? Google work for hire contracts.

The level of stupid in aani/these threads.
I've seen this question come up several times in the last month.

>>8365405
*Contracts. Rage and autocorrect don't mix well.

Woah hold the rage folks, I was just asking a question. So that means I would need to go back and contact each artist in order to make a compilation book then. That's all I was checking on. Seems fairly simple to me to ask each artist and if they say no, then I can't use their work in the book. Isn't it better that I ask the question here before even starting to plan rather than after I've already started work on such an endeavor?

Don't do anything without a contract.

>>8365425
even better to do it before the actual commissioning (work for hire actually has a part specifically for compilations)

hindsight 20/20 etc

Soo this is getting into ridiculous levels of bullying you need to stop. You can't criticize and post pictures of me when you look like THIS.

>>8365442
Nice try, but Jackie doesn't type like that.

>>8365425
Serious question, what kind of compilation book are you making? Is it all art you commissioned? Is it just for yourself?

Either way don't do this after the commission, most artists will ask way higher prices if it's supposed to be sold somewhere.

>>8365464
The idea isn't even fully formed yet I was just musing it over since artists I've commissioned have said I should make a book or something. It would all be art that has been commissioned over the years at cons, it's all cheap five buck sketches where it was more important to me for the artist to show their style and ideas rather with something fun than something expensive. It would most likely just be for myself or to show artists at cons in AAs since they're the ones that suggested I look into such a venture. There really would be no reason to mass produce and sell it at all, not really ever the intent that came into my mind at least. People would not buy it anyway.

>>8365467
That's what I was thinking, so you're essentially just making a booklet for yourself with the added use of showing it to other artists as refs?

I think most artists would be okay with that, most people replying were questioning your intentions because I've personally seen people go "Hey I commissioned this, that means I can make it into charms and sell it right??" so always expect some people to be hesitant about this sort of thing.

>>8365475
Yeah, like you said more of something to take around to cons to show the artists. The only other thing that's been suggested to me as well that I was wondering about, is if it is possible to do like a non-profit art gallery showing of all the pieces. Not to sell any pieces but just to show them all off? I think that is okay to do right? Especially when nothing is being sold nor profit being made?

>>8365493
I dunno about that, I personally would feel kind of awkward if someone wanted a commissioned piece from me in an art gallery of other commissioned art.
