I used to work as a set designer, then figured out there was no money in it (d'uh!) and moved over to trade show and exhibit design, which pays far better and more regularly.

And I'm creeping more and more into book illustration, which has been a blast.
I also keep my webcomic going and have been submitting a short animation around to some of the film festivals. I have no illusions about any of it going anywhere, but it's an amusing hobby.
