I think being able to play a role in a comic would be a very cool reward! I’d be up for that! :D

I'm glad to here that :) I feel strong about the story idea but I guess we'll see

Things are truly up to you bro

That's true but I'm not sure what

I think you should do it. You have a great style and people would love to see more of your work!

awwww you're such a babe ;w; thank you!

Sounds like an awesome idea! Just remember the responsibility that comes with it. If you find it stressful to consider it as a service that you have to be dedicated to, you may want to reconsider.

yeah i'm curious to try it and if it doesn't work out then i can still lean back on my commissions.

That comic thing sounds cool, I think Kanada does a thing where people can get a sketch, or have him redo an old piece of his work at a higher tier, but once you get a piece you have to drop down to a lower tier for a while. That might be a good option for comic cameos.
I just wish my bank would authorise patreon payments x.x

sounds interesting :) i sorta wanna do something a bit simple tho

awww that's a shame but hey i may still do some commissions ;)

I will totally support you ^V^ <3

Comic thing sounds good and i would quite possibly subscribe! Love your art!

A comic would be cool, I like how "Jackaloo" does his. people dont have to spend a lot to get to the main comic early, you can pay a little extra for the extra comic and if people cant pay then that just mean they see the comic later on FA

Yeah tho I might be making the comics patreon only again I'm just throwing ideas at the wall

In the end i think it works best to just do delayed release on a free site (since it sort of works as advertising and paid-only things always leak anyway). but it's up to you of course :) its your content and you can do with as you see fit (im currently on 3 dollars a month for Jackaloo mostly because i like to see the new content early and i get access to the extra bits)

Hey there!

There're lots of different models, and I don't think there's any one right answer (or even just one that'd be right for you). I'll flag a few approaches I've seen that worked well below. But I would say: if in doubt, start slow/small and build up. You can always add more bells and whistles later. (You don't want to over-promise, struggle for a few months, then crash out. For example, the comic you mentioned -- if you're not quite sure how it'll work or where it'll go, it might be tricky to sustain. If that's just something fun you're doing as part of the Patreon then no problem, you just move onto the next thing -- but if it's the centrepiece and people are paying $$$ each month to vote on it, that'll be rocky.)

Some things I've seen work well:
+ Artist does whatever they feel like, posts it to FA (or wherever), and people chip in a few bucks each month to support it. This is totally cool, and as long as you're making stuff from time to time it's low-pressure and low-stress. It's nice to send the odd Patron-exclusive bonus from time to time, but you don't have to and it doesn't have to be anything major (sketches/WIPs, for example).
+ As above, but also a limited number of more expensive slots for one sketch/mini-commission per month. You're committed to doing those, but can control (somewhat) how many. (Watch out that it's easy to add slots but rather tricky to remove a slot that someone's occupying and paying for...)
+ Creator is working on a big or long-term project, posts updates on a weekly/monthly basis. Patrons get charged for each update (perhaps a buck or two if weekly, few bucks if monthly). No update, no charge. Advantage is that it's clearly fair; if an update doesn't quite come together or you just plain need a break, no worries.


Good luck!

Hey there thanks alot for your feedback and suggestions i'm starting to get some idea as to what I can do for my patreon. I feel like the first idea is the best one for me for now :3
