Commission work is a bit of a finicky thing – I often enjoy the process of building cars to mirror their real-life 1:1 counterparts and challenging myself to see how accurate I can make a build, but by nature commission work also usually means I’m building something I normally wouldn’t be interested in building for myself or on my own.…
