Freelance work is not "professional", it is "amateur". If you're a professional you have a registered business number and you are self employed. Calling yourself "freelance" is the first sign that you're NOT a professional.
I refuse to believe that the person who made that potato, also made those last 2 images you posted. A true "professional" would have consistent quality across all of their work, not just having some good ones and some shit ones.
There are several notable people from the Portfolio section who have become professional designers hired by actual companies. THEY are professionals. You're a kid with a hobby.
My brother is studying to become a graphical artist at college, and the work he does is guaranteed 10x better than anything you can do. Yet he's a college student and you're a "freelance professional".
I agree with you, apart that you CAN be freelance and a professional. But the definition is still in the REGISTERED business part.
Im closing this thread, it has come to the conclusion that this potato is not sexy at all. You cant take critism, just get defencive and order people to 'do better'. You wont get far in life if you get defensive when someone critics your work. Becuase trust me, there are people who will love it, and people who will hate it.
