Wow, an awful lot of naval affiliation so far. I shouldn't be surprised
I just got my degree in Illustration a couple years ago and I've been trying to get good enough to do art as a real job since then. I actually play this game as much as I do to keep me at my desk and drawing with a tablet between matches, because I really don't know what else to do
Currently I'm just doing freelance work for people who ask, and have been completely booked! I also work in a freezer part-time at a nearby Target so's I can have health benefits.
I also work full-time for Capt. Falco, in the Making Things Explode division.
