3D modeling, rendering etc etc?

I have currently run out of work and would really appreciate some, if anyone has too much.

Many thanks in advance.

One way of getting more work: Book a holiday, especially one with a non-refundable deposit.

Almost never fails for me.

I'll second that, it's almost foolproof!

Thankyou all for the support and pms.

Shame you pulled your advice/tips ivox mate. Glad I managed to read it first, although I couldn't remember it all. Thanks for posting it though.

Looking at people's location, I think that may have something to do with it. I have to keep turning down jobs as I don't have enough time to do all of them, but I think the market is larger here in the USA. It's a shame as I've seen all your work, and you should be getting paid as you all put out top-notch images.

My business partner and I are restructuring right now, and we've been discussing the prospect of bringing in help on a freelance basis. I'll definitely let you know if there's something that comes up that I need help with. I can't guarantee the work will be too sexy because we're looking at passing off the less interesting work so we can concentrate on the fun stuff.

The biggest problem I see is the fact that none of you live in the USA. For a small business owner like me, that causes problems with payroll, liability etc., and is just another reason why I would hire a person who lives here if I had the choice. Sorry to be blunt, but that's just business.
