Great! Agreed that professionalism is integral to the design industry, unprofessionalism (i.e. poor quality work becoming the norm or what's expected due to the elance/99designs/etc approach to the field) has already taken quite a toll. Great initiative on @Andy's part, and nice drawing!
@Sean McCabe - Detailed stuff that looks like it was done by hand is actually easier than making it look like it was done by a machine (which is what you do)! This shot looks like it was done on a computer, all of the sizing/kerning/tracking/etc. is dead on. I don't have that much control with a pen.
This is so beautifully drawn, exactly what @Jason was saying about the attention to detail. The mark in particular could actually be printed – those are some seriously smooth, considered lines. I love how that serif looks drawn by hand too, it gives it such a unique quality.
Edit: I almost forgot: very nice article by the way. It reads really nicely and you always have such good word choice.
@Sean McCabe Yes, that's the book. Don't get me wrong, professionalism is definitely important and needed in our industry, but I just completely disagree with @Andy Rutledge's methodology and principles.
With all that being said, your work is genius, so kudos! Congratulations on being interviewed by Dribbble by the way! You deserve the spotlight :)

This is a tribute to The Academy of Design Professionals, a recent release by none other than @Andy Rutledge.
I wrote an article with our pledge and endorsement to The Code of Professional Conduct on Bold Perspective:

All of your hand made work is so impossibly clean, I could never do this. I've got some serious respect for your skills.

I like the logo; unfortunately, I can't stand the book (which isn't your fault). But, you've done a great job drawing all of this by hand. Kudos!

@Justin L. Hey, what's the book you're referring to? I'm only aware of the website.
Edit:
Just realized maybe you were referring to Design Professionalism. Is that the one?
