3rd Week Update and Plans ~ 📓

First of all, we're halfway there to the first goal...
I am speechless. Thank you so much everyone! ~ 💖
I would like to bring your attention to a few thoughts I've been having recently.
First of all, the major thing:
I'm purposely hiding every finished work behind the Patreon support mechanics, which is, you know, expected, since we live in a world where you pay upfront to get something you like.
BUTT.
There is big BUTT.
I'm starting to believe this might backfire.
Many people don't like it, or simply don't have the opportunity to support me, and I wanna do something for them too.
Sure I release some untextured animation, with no fluids aswell to showcase the juice of my work... but that seems to not be enough.
Advertisement is a very important part of my work, which I've been stupidly not paying much attention to.
Now.
I'm not planning to release everything, of course, that would be an awful move against my Patrons.
I need to find the sweet spot between creating interest and tempt people enough to consider supporting me.
How would I do?
Well, I've been considering releasing at least 1 finished image for every one of my work instead of a cropped, darkened coupled collage.
This way everyone can evaluate, along with the untextured animations, what the full product would be like, without giving it away.
Is it too much?
Is it too little?
Alternatively I've been also considering a full release of the most voted animation once per month, which will be a replacement or an addition to the previous thought.
I'll create a poll somewhere for everyone to participate, and the winning animation gets to be released publicly.
Let me know what you think about this.
Then...
Noone has currently joined my Fiery Patron Tier which was also expected.
In the near future I might consider making this Tier public, which also strictly associate with what I was saying before.
Being able to release some finished render of my works will surely step it up for me.
One last thing before talking about my plans for the week...
I'm fully committed.
If I'll be able to earn enough to survive and have a happy life, this will be my work till the end of my days.
I just wanted to be clear in case any of you had any doubt about me.
Aaaand... that's it!
Onto the plans! ~ 📓
There is a lot, and I mean a loooooot I would like to work on so choosing a topic it's always hard.
Since last week there weren't suggestions, I picked it again... ~
This week features Rathalos and Zinogre!
Suggestions are always welcome, so feel free to let them in the comments section.
Gratefully,
- Raith.

I'll wait one week to check on my supporters and see what they think.
If everything's fine I'll start by making some images public, and at the 5th of every month I'll release the most requested animation.
Poll-wise, I'll manage something when the time comes, for now I need to focus on the next animation.
