Let's please make this explicitly clear: It is then all right to use the contest
as a means to advertise a commercial model or a commercial product based on the
model? This is a glaring pitfall if sources are not requested. I thought it
would be inelegant and immoral to submit the models I authored for, say, the
Dark Side Creatures book published by Syngress (which the contest audience would
have to buy if they wanted to get the step-by-step instructions). Please correct
me if that is not the case, because I still think it is.
Cheers
