General
I want to thank everyone who has decided that I was actually worth watching. I haven't been able to post anything new due to what happened to my laptop but I hope to sometime in the near future. Life just kinda sucks for me at the moment and has not been getting better lately. Hopefully that will change soon....I hope.
In the meantime I need to ask you guys a question or two or ten. I've noticed a lot of people have fallen in love with my girls and I want to keep up the commissions, but the problem is that money is getting kinda tight and I'm looking into an apartment. So that may make things a little tighter on my wallet.
So my question(s) is this. If I was to get say a Patreon or something, would you guys consider that a good idea and/or be willing to help so you can see more of my girls? If so what awards do you think would be good in the patreon for each level? All the money that goes into this will be for the commissions.
So what do you guys think?
Speaking of Patreon,
Krayne is posting my girls on his Patreon and it would mean so much if you guys could help him out considering how much he has already done for me. ^_^ Go check him out commission the guy, or heck just say. He doesn't bite. He can't with the muzzle on. XD
Anyways I hope you all are having a great summer. Take care.

As I kind of see myself as an advocate of free-sharing internet culture, I also always have a somewhat overly critical eye on Patreon-exclusive rewards. I believe that they can certainly be done right without having those non-backers miss out and feeling left out for that, but it takes a rather delicate touch in order to find the deal with which both sides can be happy. In my experience, giving backers access to the final product earlier is a good way of doing this. So is leaving a well designed thank you message to the funders in the description or, better yet, at the end of the comics themselves. If you want to give the backers a somewhat bigger reward, giving/raffling spots as background characters to your backers might be a good possibility as well.
One thing to watch out for is that whenever money is involved in any way, that can easily take an effect on the artistic vision of the project, even if it happens unintentionally. If you have received money from someone for a project, you will of course feel thankful towards them, and that might effect the creative design process. Especially if anyone is trying to get involved in the making of the stories. Keep in mind that many people will be subconciously try to please those people they feel thankful towards, or even feel like they owe them, so the design of the story might get (unintentionally) altered to achieve that. It's not necessarilly wrong to do that, but it's an effect that anyone who starts a crowdfunding thing should be aware of.
So, however you decide, I hope it goes well for everone involved, and if we get more art of your girs, that is a win for everyone :)
