So... What Now?

I'm really good with art, buttons, 3d rendering, 2d art, concept game art, GUIs (I am currently learning the GUI system of Torque Game Engine.). I am really trying to get started with the Torque Game Engine/ Torque Game Engine GUI system. I've been involved in some tutorials lately, figuring out what happens when I try certain things, and learning about different buttons. So lets take it straight to the point. I'm not really the scripting type of person. I know a little about TorqueScript. I can do very BASIC commands. Well actually, I'm learning the scripting that works with the GUIs, not the in-game scripting (what you experience/see as you play the game). So my question is... What now? I don't want to work for anyone online. I'm thinking about having a couple of friends obtain a license. Maybe I do the artwork, they script type deal? Is this worth it? Or should I stick to artwork, increasing my knowledge on Torque in-game & menu screen GUI, concept game art, and 3d objects? Or should I attempt to begin some "one man" type projects. Not big, just small, and add to my very basic database of TorqueScript, along with some artwork skills. Maybe grind out 1 or 2 SIMPLE games. The pro with this option in my opinion is to get a few small projects on my record to show a basic idea of what I am capable of, and then join a friend or two with game making? This won't make me a "n00b" in the gaming industry. Or at least not a big one.

Or really, I would like to hear any other options the community at GG here, what they might have to say.
