Testing to see if people even do this sort of thing.
6 years ago
Turned on shinies, even though I don't create the artwork specifically.
The idea was maaaaaaaaaybe using it as a crowd-funding tool if people really like seeing my horse or her raptor form in the typical lewd situations that I keep getting, or at least with the idea/reasoning i'm thinking of where people just chip in with little bits here and there to speed it along so it's more consistent.
And before people start with the argument of "why should i give you the shinies when i can just give the support to the artists, and you don't create anything?".
Because
A: it's still my character that's being made (that a lot of people enjoy seeing in lewd situations)
B: there are at least a dozen of other artists that i routinely commission, so it'd just be more accurate to use the crowd fund pool so the artist you want to support gets work sooner and more frequent, and they are drawing a character that you(hopefully) enjoy seeing in the lewd situations more frequently.
C-a: if people like this idea but want to influence on where the money goes it can be stated for "hey here's some for your next pic by (insert artist suggestion name here)"
C-b: if people really jump on board with this and there's a loud enough group being vocal about where it goes then it can be put to a survey/straw-pol thing of all the artists suggested and people get to vote on who i go throw the monies at to get horse/raptor arts made of their favorite fetish material
D: ... this isn't going to be a monthly gimmick like patreon either so you won't be required to dump ridiculous amounts every month. Like, literally don't kill yourself with subscriptions on top of subscriptions, jeez.

I even thought about turning it on for such a thing. Not sure if people can see your real name due to it being through paypal. That's the one thing that was halting me.

ive seen some one else that isnt an artist do it, and ive thought about doing it myself. I do draw on rare occasions but you bascially had the same general idea i was thinking of doing.


Let's get this train rolling!
