whereabouts are you based ?
If you don't do it you'll always ask yourself what if. Your work speaks for itself. If your venture fails so what-you get another job 
Its difficult making a living out of something which is a huge part of your personel life and its easy to undersell yourself especially to mates or to establish yourself early on. Never forget you don't get paid holidays, overtime rates,sick pay,when things go wrong etc etc. Quality costs and takes time- make sure you get paid for it.
For me the hardest part was not the work but handing the bill out from scooterboy to scooterboy. If you can get that side sorted then you've got it made because your work is original and will be sought after.
Good luck
