Using my commissioned artwork
Permission MUST be obtained from the rights owner if you want to use or display my commissioned artwork elsewhere. The name of the rights owner is displayed next to the image in my Portfolio. If you are unsure who the copyright owner is, then please contact me. Although I retain the right to display the images I create for clients on my website for my promotional use, I cannot extend this priviledge to others.
Using my personal artwork
My personal projects are FREE to use for non-commercial use under Creative Commons 4.0 BY-NC-ND licence. These can be identified in my portfolio by the label CC BY-NC-ND 4.0. This license permits the copying and redistribution of my work in any medium or format provided that you give appropriate attribution or acknowledgement to me. You must not modify my artwork, remove or obscure my copyright or digital watermark. If you are displaying my work anywhere online including social media posts, a reciprocal link back to my website is appreciated.
Image licensing rates for commercial use
Fees apply for the use of my artworks in commercial projects. Examples include advertising, television programmes (broadcast), computer games, or any other type of product where a profit is generated directly, or indirectly from the sale. Some exemptions are programmes or computer games which can be classed 'educational' and/or projects which generate profits for charitable purposes. To purchase a license please read Licensing Rates.pdf (PDF, 164Kb), and contact me.
Obtaining print-ready artworks
If you are using my images in printed material, please DO NOT take the images directly from my website, these are compressed digital images optimised for website display and will not look their best if printed which reflects my work badly. Always ask me and I will provide you with high-quality, high-resolution artwork files to use.
Use of 3D Models
I receive numerous requests for access to the 3D model files I create for my projects; however, please note that my models cannot be shared or licensed for other use due to contractual agreements with my clients and, in some situations, other stakeholders. Significant effort and exhaustive research are poured into the development of my projects, often in collaboration with historical experts, and one reason I do not allow access is to protect my Intellectual Property and the personal and professional investment others have made to these projects.
