There comes a time in every digital artist’s life when they realize...sometimes it’s ok to download supplemental material rather than create it from scratch. So many situations come to mind:
- a photo-sourced texture to fill the background behind your character
- a stock image to fill a digital picture frame in your arch viz render
- 3D models for a game you’re prototyping
- a music track to accompany your demo reel
- many more
The reality is it's very common to need and use existing material to supplement your own work. Today Kent is discussing where to find free resources (including 3D models, images, music) and how to properly use them; both legally and in a way that makes the world a better place (attribution).

QUESTION: Is there OCD behavior that is always present and never goes away when making content?
Man these are hot waters

Yeah, we've been known to buy for populating a scene.
dont quote me
now i feel bad for being a movie pirate
I would not push the Red Button. I would like to see content thieves go away - but a Big Red Button just sounds too much like a Twilight Zone trap.
Happy Birthday went into public domain a few years ago, so now shows and the like don't have to pay for it anymore.
