As long as you don't sell it, you can whore it around the internet as much as you like.

As long as you don't use it for money, you're not going to get sewed (unless you ask for permission from the band or something :P).

Well, as long as you don't make a profit, most copyright-holders are ok with you using their copyrighted material.
However, some (lego) are not, but they will not sue you, they'll just demand that you remove their material from the internet.
