decent pic but not nearly the same quality... your "render boxes" are tied up right now... blah blah blah, I knew you'd have some kind of quirky deadbeat designer excuse
Like others, I've been up and down the past year as well, after selling my main site for 50k and blowing the majority of that I went a good 6-8 months without making a decent income... luckily not to the point of losing electricity or anything like that. But I was basically working 10-13 hours a day weekends included trying to come up with something that will make money. Times have changed, before that I used to work 1-4 hours a week like a lazy bastard and cleared a decent income. After that 6-8 months of shit I only started turning things around recently.
If you don't want to end up working at the pizza pizza call center I'd stop with the bullshit long posts, excuses, and start producing shit like this that the guy posted:
It's pretty intriguing.... no more shit about your "r3nd3r b0xez" - if you don't have any fucking work, why are your "render boxes" tied up right now?
Here's a better question, why would you have to render something that high quality on the spot instead of already having examples in your portfolio?
Designers are so funny, especially ones in adult, deadbeats to the bitter end. Get a REAL portfolio with intriguing stuff like the example pic someone posted. I'm pretty sure you'll get some bites, enough to get you started until you can upgrade those "render boxes" and pump it out on a regular basis.
I haven't looked at any kind of artificial porn since I discovered Hentai in 1997 but I get the feeling if anything is going to sell it's going to be high quality shit like this pic example.
Man up or get in line with the other millions of North American graphic designers applying for pizzapizza/mcdonalds jobs since globalization took them off the map.
