How many of you actually work and earn a living from your art as a professional?

I don't know if I'm a professional, but I make a living from drawing, and animating hardcore furry porn, does that count?

True, at least I make bank, I'm latino, and the dollar is worth gold in my shitty country.

It's in the name amigo. PROFESSIONal, that means you're reliably using your skills to make money in exchange for your services.
En que pais estas, si se puede preguntar?

I do! I work as a toy designer. I do freelance comics, illustration, concept art stuff too but not to the extent I’d rely on for income.

I made $24k off of commissions last year. Seems promising considering I was depressed as hell last year and it slowed me down.

Based on a strawpoll taken a long time ago, the vast majority of the board are all hobby artists who work real jobs for a living.

A very small percentage are professionals that lurk this board.

Professional lurker here. All told in about 10 years of working in animation I think I've made about $800k total during my career.

How does that work? I figure nowadays they want people who can do 3D modeling since that would be much easier to get the dimensions across to licensors for approval, right? Any other considerations that are important, or about the job in general?

Working at a studio as a designer or board artist is a fairly steady paycheck. Even better if you're doing a union gig. I'd say that's how I've made 95% of my money.

Honestly I don't think I could survive as an illustrator on my own. Or I'd be just scraping by

How...? Do you charge a lot or did you take tons of commissions? And how did you get these clients?
