Same way back when when I was doing art work for educational clients. Doing highly art directed work for a tiny budget on a tight deadline — all while still trying to make work that is artistically satisfying. Any trade book project I work on now is treated like the creative gift it is.

Well done! and I always appreciate the list of editors and AD's who worked on a specific book. This industry needs way more of that!
You got it exactly right! Nice job! (and I agree -- great character design on this guy)
