I'm in a strange little stage in my art career (if you can call it that). I get contacted about projects, but not enough to make a living. A lot of shady companies will contact you and try to get you to sign a contract that's 100 percent in their favor, with little pay, and gives them all the rights. needless to say, I dont jump on. I use to have the friend thing when I was younger, would ask me to draw or do such and such for them. Not anymore though, most my commissions come from those people now, I guess cause most of us have more money to throw around now a days.
I like helping people out, but there comes a time when someone is asking for to much of your time and not offering you anything in exchange.
