Stopped myself before I got in as far as you but realized my roadblock is art. I can't solve this one: I lack the creativity and patience to do the art, and naturally nobody will ever work for free, nor should they.

I wasn't really sure how to proceed so I started studying for various tech and cloud certs instead. Might as well put my skills to use somewhere.

Heh I can relate, a proper artist - someone with a creative mind and vision - will still run circles around me. I often rely on references and "copying" previous work. I also never learned to draw, instead jumping straight into 3d modeling. Drawing is basically the quickest way to experiment with concepts and designs and that knowledge gap has become a glaring issue over time. There's no "fix", just 10,000 more hours of practice...
