@RorrKonn You forget one simple fact. Technical ability and experience as a modeler will not bring you income. This is a selling activity. Many artists, myself included, can't stand to work on the marketing stuff, but that is what determines the success of your product. I worked almost 30 years in the software development field and I always say that anybody can write a program but it takes a special talent to turn it into a product. Same is valid here. Your technical skills only help you turm raw polys into a shape but it takes something like AS's vision to have a line of products that excites people.
Every week I force myself to take care of the marketing part. I hate it but you have to crunch numbers, think about promotions, write copy for the ads etc. That takes time bu THAT is what will bring in the cash.

Cheers.
