Converting to a sketch also moves it closer to being classified as a derivative work which might offer some legal protection if the images are not fully public domain. |
A lot of 1st ed modules used military pics and movies for inspiration, "Armies of the Night had Arnold with an H&K94 from "Raw Deal" and the Geoffrey Lewis from "Night of the Comet".
