There are also kits and equipment you can get to make such things at home, if you were interested in making some samples to show and sell at craft fairs to generate local supply contracts.  A printed portfolio of different kinds of things would be handy, so the potential customers can flip through it and not just say "I don't like dragons" or whatever happens to be in sight.

Home made bsuiness cards with Poser art would help sell the concept also. :)
