i told my sister the way i draw lestat’s nose looks kinda like lana del rey’s and
like seriously AU where everything is the same but Lestat became a singer in 2011 with sadcore indie pop instead of 80s rock and all the vampires were bitching about him waking up Akasha with his “weepy hipster crap”
“this is my body/this is my blood” LESTAT U CANS NOT JUST USE BIBLE TEXT AS LYRICS. It’s copyright infringement, surely.
yES of course I would! But if it’s not in league with Anne Rice, you have the possibility of getting slapped with a copyright infringement suit 😛
Now, I reblog tons of VC fanart, and fanworks, bc I love it, and there is some difference between the artists sharing it for free vs. charging money for it, but it seems that AR must be aware of fanart made for commission (paintings, prints, etc.) and she hasn’t made any negative statements about it. In fact, she’s complimented more than one fanartist (for example, garama) and at least one cosplayer (for example sheepskeleton)(it’s a form of art so it totally counts)… so I think we’re somewhat safe so long as we keep it small-scale and don’t poke the bear by throwing it directly in her face.
I actually do intend to commission some VC fanartists at some point, just need a good enough idea to ask for.
