Default Re: Digital Models Not Subject To Copyright

As I understand it in EU states the copyright lies inherently with the creator of the asset. This was modified in the nineties to cover programmers who used tools they had previously created in the completion of a subsequently, copyright covered piece of software. Under old legislation the owner of the copyright also had rights on all tools used in its creation. As far as I understand things, over here the copyright resides with the creator unless otherwise specified.

Otherwise, would my oils be owned by toyota if I had painted a photoreal image of one of their cars based on materials supplied by them?
