General
For those of you who didn't notice the spider comic I put up not to long ago I'm going to be moving soon. I have finally found a place I can afford and isn't significantly crappier than the place I have currently been living in (not counting the spiders) The place is actually better. If I'm lucky I'll be upgrading to a 2 bedroom for LESS per month than I was paying before. If not I'll still be moving into a one bedroom in the same location that's bigger, has better amenities and is cheaper, so no downsides. I'll be putting in an application this week, and I hope to be moving in shortly after the 1st of September.
So, all that said there's just ONE kink in this otherwise great plan. I don't have money for the deposit on the apartment. I got paid on the 17th and by the 18th unexpected or unexpectedly high bills ate up all but $150 of my money. @_@ So... I need to raise some money pretty quickly, but I'm not really sure what to do.
I've thought about doing another couch or just taking commissions until I have enough to cover the deposit, but I was thinking there might be a different/better idea I just haven't thought of yet.
So I'm looking to all of you! What would you like to see me do to raise money?

Maybe they could get a little overexcited and end up having an unexpected cream filling?
Where one section represents a particular frozen moment in time at say like a convention hall, and each additional section is another moment in time, but they're all interconnected to each other from the previous picture, so you would see decoration, body parts, objects that bleed from the previous and upcoming pictures on to the current picture. That way each release simultaneously previews the upcoming section of the continuous picture and reveals full details about the previous picture creating natural intrigue and interest.
People could submit their own ideas of what would come next based on what's happening in the current frame or you could do your own thing and even periodically offer free slots to generate interest without having to completely start from scratch for inspiration.
And since it naturally will draw reoccurring interest like that of a comic-book. It would be easy to sale because it would gain reoccuring popularity instead of the typical 15 minutes of fame most art gets.
Basically what I'm proposing is functionally similar to a Comic without words, done in the style of a sprawling where's waldo mural. A chaotic and humorous scene that captivates the audiences attention for hours as they ascertain all it's on goings.
I think that the fact it's A.) Never been done before B.) Is easy to manage C.) Will generate good buzz D.) Is highly inclusive -- and could benefit the Fandom at large for it's open approach and ability to scale --- makes it a particular effective choice for you.
