As I am getting things together, I decided I might look into multiple avenues for engagement, and income.
I'm going to start actively sharing some software development stuff I've been up to, regardless of whether it pans out to a finished product or not.
Keep you all in the loop with game development stuff, such as my kicking around in Unity, Blender, and Unreal (seriously, if you are interested in game development check this engine out! It's so easy to use compared to others I have dabbled in the past).
Put a brag post about my profile webpage that I built myself. Even if that runs the risk of crossing my mundane identity, and furry/ sadomasochistic one. (At this point, if a company doesn't want me, because I am a freak, I don't want them).
Switch from traditional to digital art, because I can sell with instantaneous transfer of products. Traditional will remain open, but at a significant mark up to make the process, materials, and shipping worth it.
I'm kicking around the idea of having a Patreon, BuyMeACoffee, SubscribeStar, and Kofi account for potential recurring income. The problem is I am often a porn artist. I often produce sadomasochistic, and gore porn, which are against the TOS on those sites. Some of the obvious consensual stuff (like the shibari lizard I drew), can go up on SubscribeStar (which will not allow pornographic material, or fetish stuff; like pictures of floggers you made, but will art? I'm very confused where their line is at). That same thing can't on the other three, even though the lizard is wearing a G-String, and any S&M content showing fear can easily be considered "rape" by SubscribeStar and taken down.
Go through my backlog of stuff that never made it onto the site, because of whatever reason, and start posting more content, whether it is new or not, as long as it still looks good.
I got some good ideas for S&M Lifestyle, Gender Identity, and Sexuality pins. So I'll also be looking into producing, and selling merch, as well as commissions, and badges. I may look into a survey to figure out what kind of products will sell at convention to figure out how to maximize that. Merch is both a thing I need for quick, cheap sales at Conventions, but also one of the biggest things I fear getting into, because making the wrong thing will mean product sitting in my house costing money I don't have.
Continue with time trials and quick sketches, and start posting them.
Introduce my universe of species I created, that I've had sitting around for decades. Just haven't decided if they are going in a webcomic, or potential PC game. Though I gotta get back on my storytelling skills: Talk about rusty!

Just a headsup but SubscribeStar has an adult specific site that allows way more stuff- subscribestar.adult
