This is the part where people like what I do, and then ask for something, and give me money. Yep. That's pretty much it.
I love doing commissioned work, although I'm not as fast as I'd like to be, due to how much effort I put into them. The ROI isn't terrific, just to be honest, so it's hard to balance against all the other things I do.
But then again, I always love the final products and I'm glad I have people patient enough to wait for them.
