Thoughts on Patreon?
11 years ago
I had a lovely sort-of-vacation last week, but unfortunately I got sick the day I returned and then had a bad allergic reaction to the antibiotics I took. I'm okay, thankfully, I caught it early and had the expert help of my personal pharmacist, xavierfoxshandi. I'm just in a lot of pain and I'm going to be a little slow at getting back in the swing of things over the next few days as I recover.
In better news, I'm seriously considering starting up a Patreon when I finish the current batch of commissions. I've mentioned it before on Twitter and had a generally positive response, but I'm curious about what kinds of things people want to see from me.
I'm planning on doing mostly pinups, both digital and traditional. I love doing stuff like that and had a great time with the pieces I made for the AC art show this year, and it would be awesome to be able to have that kind of creative freedom on a more regular basis without the stress of preparing for a big show(and the waiting for a check!).
So if there are any ideas or specific themes you might have in mind, please let me know! I'm thinking about offering things like WIPs, tutorials and exclusive streams in addition to high resolution artwork, but I'd love to know what my watchers want to see! :)

I think doing pin-up series pics would be cool! Like all birds or one, or all feline species or hoofed species. It would be awesome.
That's a really great idea! I've been dying to draw more birds and reptiles in particular but rarely get commissioned for them, so doing themed series would be super fun :D
It does take a bit of doing to convince yourself that people will want to send you money without being forced to, though.
I would be nervous since a user could technically go ahead and post 50-100 completed images.. so then do I owe $50-100? xD
Like wow I'm glad it didnt work for me to use it...
I tend to prefer just the monthly plan though, because it doesn't leave me, as a patron, with the choice between "do I pledge a lot per update so they will hit the cap with fewer updates," or "do I pledge only a little per update so they just barely hit the cap by the time the month is done?"
