Thinking About Attempting a Patreon - Your Thoughts
3 years ago
General
Need money for eating while in school, and also for escaping. Sorry in advance if I end up blowing my brains out instead of doing either of those things.
Anyway, so yes, I'm thinking about making a Patreon with a heavy emphasis on the adult work I so often deprive you of over here these days.
If that were to happen, what kinds of things would you like to see over there? It can be: things I don't currently do, things I used to do that you want to see return, specific scenarios you want more focus on, etc.
What would make that objectively terrible use of your money seem like a good one to you?
EDIT: Some early things I considered putting there include -
Certain recurring scenarios which would either be exclusive or largely exclusive to patreon
Various sketches I have laying around at any given time that for one reason or another I opted not to upload to my main accounts.
Isolated animation loops or alternate scenes made out of existing animation assets
Some sort of "Graveyard" feature which might let patreons decide on an unfinished WIP or sketch to go ahead and bring across the finish line.
These are all very early ideas, and for all intents and purposes I still have no idea what I'm doing.

- Posts where you take your patron's suggestions for ideas/scenarios, pick ones you don't hate, and then put up a poll to be voted on
- More writing! I want to read more of your stories. Give me posts on character backstory, worldbuilding, blurbs. Maybe explore other character types with new OCs.
- I'd like to see different animal species in your worldbuilding and explore how their sexual habits (yes, I mostly mean in rape) differ to the squirrels and rats we know and love.
- Specific sexual act requests! Fingering, more oral, teasing with tails when all other limbs are occupied with struggling, etc.
- "Roast This Character" specials! Patrons put forward their characters to be roasted, and once they run out of characters they can vote on either characters from media, or other people's OCs (I understand that this one might be problematic but I want this okay).
I did consider the possibility of like, patreon-exclusive stories but admittedly I think that was 100% with you in mind, since most of my audience is definitely gonna be more visual. But in theory it wouldn't be too hard to find ways to work more blurbs in. I also considered the idea of patreon-exclusive characters, or mostly exclusive, used in scenarios primarily featured over there.
You know, I think I'm more likely to explore species-specific sex traits in more vanilla, dare I say romantic settings but there's probably a few quirks one could work into the struggle snuggles. Otters like to bite, knots are a cliche but they work...I don't do this as much recently but I always figured smaller species would have a lot more 'pace' to them, you know...the old kink of a predator falling to the unrelenting speed of a prey species' hips. We'll see what we come up with.
Requesting sex acts might be okay, I know I do a lot of basic vaginal stuff and sometimes it's fun to figure out how to make some of the others more interesting (sort of like my habit of drawing blowjobs so that the dick's coming in sideways instead of straight on). When I did more cartoonish stuff way back in the day I had a think for rats with ridiculously prehensile tails who could use it to bind somebody in place and then use the tip for teasing between the legs. Probably couldn't hurt me to stop trying to be so 'realistic' all the time, or at least suspend it for certain projects.
While people paying me to shit all over their characters would be some kind of warped dream come true, it's hard to imagine too many people going for that. Although not zero, the guy I did StunBun for really seemed to enjoy that description and a few of my buds also made a point of saying "by the way, that description was great" but coulda been a lightning-in-a-bottle situation, it's not every day somebody hands you something like "Stun Bun" on a silver platter.
It's all stuff to consider though, and I appreciate your input. I hold your thoughts on this in higher regard than most.
Seeing old sketches is always nice, esp to find out why you stopped where you did or what the process was (etc).
If it also ended up having more gay rats/critters, it would be an added bonus…
Those explanations might be interesting. Or not. They'd mostly be "was no longer horny" or "I liked this at 1am that Thursday morning but it was too stupid to actually attach my name to, publicly."
Even explanations as simple/banal as those are genuinely quite interesting to see, as a non-artist. Good prompts for discussion sometimes.
