Cheers John, I hope your build goes well

It is a lovely kit and goes together really easily. I did mine in QinetiQ ETPS markings photos about 3/4 down the page. Steve

No problem

I didn't think you would be looking for financial compensation but it was mentioned in the thread and I just wanted to make the point it was unlikely to happen! Perhaps I shouldn't have used the capital letters on Public Domain in my post as that may have been taken as something different legally from my intention. All I wanted to get across was that once an image (or anything else) is made freely available then the copyright holder loses control of it and any future attempts to restrict the use will be very difficult to enforce. I think most of us posting photos aren't bothered if someone else finds it useful, such as a completed model or the walk round section on BM, but their use for other purposes should at least get an acknowledgement. Ideally consent for use should be obtained in advance, but that isn't always possible. Most social media sites make you agree that any and all content you upload belongs to them, several professional photographers have run into problems trying to sell their own photos after showing them on a social media site as they find that they no longer own the copyright for them. At least one has been threatened with legal action for trying to sell a photo they took...... Steve

Unfortunately you have placed the image into the Public Domain (the Internet) without any usage restrictions and what people choose to do with it is out of your control. This is why a lot of photos that are for sale are only shown as low-res or watermarked versions on websites. From a courtesy point of view it would be good to get credited for the photo but I doubt you will be able to get any financial compensation for it's use. I work in a school and part of my role is helping teachers understand what they can and can't do with things they find on the Interwebby. Hope this helps. Steve

Cheers

Looks good, well done. I did exactly the same conversion, except for the Miss Distance Indicators, a couple of years ago, as well as the U15 and U21. Steve

Thanks guys. Yes, I do the decal artwork in CorelDraw as vectors. The white parts are printed on a laser printer and the colours on an inkjet. Steve

Cheers, it was released about a year ago but certainly not a very well known subject. Steve

As WB188 is unique is there any chance you'd be willing to add them to the Walkaround section? Steve
