    i generally have either 85%-95% control of all my work from conceptual idea to finished product.. every detail of each step of the work i create 100% alone.. until the work needs to goto production then my liaison overseas takes over but still takes direction from me..

    so generally i would put everything in the portfolio, or really cater the book towards the new client i am looking to land..

    however i remember my past where i didnt have this level of control and i cried daily as my work was butchered into their vision..

    meh!!
