Uncertain Direction
7 years ago
So I made that journal a little while back asking about how people would feel about me starting a patreon to fund making comics and I have to say it was extremely split. Even people who supported the notion felt it was still a bad idea in some aspect or another, so I'm not sure how I should feel about all this.
I will say that I honestly do wish to do more with my characters than just the standard pin ups I get and comics would be a good way to tell a story while still catering to the fetish material I typically get done.
Truthfully, my original plan was not merely comics. I had hoped to rewrite Serenity's story to be suited for a comic format but it was going to be more than that. I had also planned to hire voice actors and even release these as a form of audio comic one could enjoy in a video format as well as just written media. But I really cant tell if people would be on board with that.
The main comic would be Serenity's story as I mentioned which would be a story of a girl coming to terms with her strange body as she journeys though college and meets people. Itd be lewd like most of the stuff I get, heavily focused on Futa, Expansion, Lactation, inflation, and the likes. But I'd also love to delve into the world Serenity inhabits with short spin off stories featuring my other characters like Tsukiko, Rayne, or my cow girls which would range from tame slice of life moments to more fetish focused misadventures.
As it stands now though, I'm not sure what I can do. Patreon feels like it's not a suitable option, as at least going by my question before, due to not enough people being invested enough to want to support such an under taking. People have mentioned using Ko-fi instead but that's also a similar problem of lack of support.
So I have a lot to think about, both for this endeavor as well as my path forward from here with my characters in general. Leave any comments you want about how you feel about all this, or if you just think I'm being too selfish.

I don't think you're being selfish at all :>)b, I've had similar thoughts before in the past. Could try buckling down some more to save up more for these comic ideas you want done in the future :o? Sure they may not come out a consistent enough rate but they'll still get done. That or looking for an artist who doesn't mind getting payed in half or quarter payments of the full product?
