Using a stock photo for 3d modeling, and redistributing
<p>I wanted to take a photo from <a href="https://www.istockphoto.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.istockphoto.com/</a> and use it as a base to create a 3d model.</p>
<p>The photo would be an essential feature of the model, without the photo the model could not exist.</p>
<p>Would redistributing the model for free be possible following the license provided by the website? I would be happy to consider both the standard and extended license if any of those would allow me to execute and redistribute my work giving due credits to the author.</p>

<p>As far as I can tell, the license allows this though I'm baffled as to why you're asking random people rather than the site licensing it.</p>
<p>The license offers unlimited use, including modification, with some restrictions. This would include making a derivative work from it and distributing that.</p>
<p>The only restriction likely to be an issue is that you cannot falsely claim authorship of the photo. It is likely you would need to attribute it, depending on how much your 3d model uses it.</p>
