Question for CC Makers

[strangetomato]

For those of you who've made wall hanging recolours from an artist or designers work (either in a simlish version or as-is), do you generally ask permission to use their artwork? Or do most people use the images without contacting the original creator of the image? I have a little something I'd like to make based on someone else's work, so I'd like to know what others do in this situation. I feel like asking would be best, but then I'm sort of afraid they'll just say no.

Best to ask, since the artist may get nasty if you don't. And once you make your creations, send off the in game photos to the artist to show what you did!
