Alright, so I have another artist friend who wanted me to get one of their questions answered here by you lovely people!
The question they proposed is quite the conundrum to describe and rather tough to answer.
The friend in question has an ugly looking dragon creature that they own the full legal rights to.
They enjoy drawing fanart, and has been drawing their favorite characters as monster versions for laughs.
There is one character they are attached to that they have monsterfied and has been drawing them all the time. (I think the character is from nickelodeon)
The monsterfied character has all the original characters clothing and hair,but the species is of their monster creature.
My friend claims the character is a parody since they use the monsterfied character to not only poke fun at the actual original character but to poke fun at their own monster species.
They also use them as an example as to show how a person goes about daily life after being turned into one of these monsters. (I guess these are were creatures? )
The question proposed, who would own this "monsterfied character" if at all. I want to say the character is a grey area and that no one owns it, but that is just me.
1. My friend?
2. Nickelodeon?
3. Both parties would own it?
3. Grey area?
4. no ownership exists?
