Couldn't have said it better myself.
Looks pretty okay OP, but it's just the FK template with some slight tweaks. Astros advice is true, when I was starting graphics I would do it for free and when some people started donating is when I realized I was probably at a level that I could start charging for. Free work is good to start with because you're being paid in experience in a way. Have fun, experiment, do shit for yourself when nobody is asking you for stuff. I still do it to this day.
Tag me in your next showcase piece, I wanna follow you on your graphics journey.
