http://www.whimwham.com/

of course he started out by being extremely talented, but I think rather than cold-calling, he went out there, met and made friends with the people who were his potential market, got examples of his work and put it under people's noses until they had to admit it was pretty darn good. He'll be able to tell you more. I know him from the Britnet website. He has a cool accent too
Thanks Monster. I am checking out his websites and will contact him. He's a Brit or just a fan of Brits?

Just checked his websites. Really astounding work and hard to believe it's by the same guy.
