I'm not a designer, but I appreciate designers/artists. Similarly, with logo design, there are apps with preloaded assets and there are custom designed logos. Assuming that process for commissions work the same way, you're paying for a one-off/customization + revisions. In both logo design and commissions, the designer should work with you from begining to end, ultimately creating a piece of art that you both put work into. The designer's job is to put your dreams and vision on paper.
I guess in layman's terms, the app gives you a cookie cutter design of your car. Whereas the artist would add their artistic vision and style to compliment your car.
Or in car terms, you can buy a car and then you add Spoon parts to it (app - cookie cutter/everyone has access) or you can buy the car and get things custom fabbed to how you want it but within the limitation of the engineer (designer).

| Honestly, if I was more mature when I started, I would have never done it. What an insane amount of time something like this takes. I would never do it again.

Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk | Well said. Really, same reason I mod my cars is for the individuality. I'm paying for the designer for an art of my own car. I can refer back to this, and actually rejoice in the fact and enlightenment (ok that's just me) that this photo/art is MY car, rather than just any 'cookie cutter' NSX art that came from Honda. To me, it's like putting up a poster of someone elses' landscape photo in your living room, versus putting up a photo you took yourself. You always look at it and say "Hey, that's MY photo."
Unfortunately, in HK I valet my car a lot because of the parking problems/culture here. But it ALWAYS brings a smile to my face, when the valet guys are looking for the keys and say "Oh the red nsx, yeah the one with the keychain"
