Taschen are evil.

Here is why. They are constantly tempting my wallet with gorgeous books that are usually beyond my budget. Occassionally I get lucky and find stuff like the oversized version of the Cabinet of Natural Curiousities for 70% off the original price, but usually, I am left drooling over a book I can't have.

In this case it is Magic, a 600+ page tome

Ooooh! WANTS!!!!

[ginasketch]

Yes!!!

There is a competition on Derren Brown's website where they are giving away a copy. I'm going to enter.

Oh, good luck.

I'm too late actually. Today was the cut off point.

Don't take my word for this

I actually don't know the background of your OHG trailer. Was your design endorsed by the BBC and/or Andy Hamilton in any way?
I'm no expert at all in these matters but if the answer to the above is a no, I'd say you're free to use the likenesses of your characters in any way you please as long as you don't use the OHG names.

Yeah it was never endorsed by the BBC, Andy Hamilton just gave me permission to make a student trailer based on his Radio show.

It's the likeness I want to use, nothing more. I certainly won't be writing a plot involving an atheist professor and whiny god character. :)

I think as long as you only use the visual design, and don't use Hamilton's "satan" as he is in the Radio show it should all be fine.

No one can sue you for using a design no one ever claimed.

[ginasketch]

Good to know.

I may eventually take down the OHG video. You wouldn't believe how many comments I get saying it should be made into a whole series. It's flattering, but it's not my idea and I can't do anything further with it.

definetely evil.
Sounds like a good idea, i suppose you could tweak the character design a little, would be great to see some more demons ^^

[ginasketch]

Yeah I miss drawing devils and I have some ideas for new ones.

[wherever]
