Thank you for the compliment! However.....
I get paid for the work I do, so by definition I
am a professional.

People assume working for a big, well known game company is somehow the only legitimate professional job.
You see, working for a big, monolithic company like EA means being told what to do, and having absolutely no creative control in most cases. Hardly the "dream" job IMO. Working freelance, and doing jobs for TGC, means I can work when I want, I have almost full creative control, and I get to do a wide variety of work. From modeling to texturing to animation - instead of being relegated to one specific task. Trust me, TGC is a
great company to work for, and keeps this fun. I turned pro the minute I started getting a paycheck for the work I do.
