A question about future raffles (want your opinions)
5 years ago
You see a friendly-looking raccoon artist. He smiles to you.
I thought about some things and found out that these raffles every week begin to feel a bit boring after these years.
You see, when I started them, it was, apart from other fun stuff, the way for me to learn and try and master new techiques and methods. To improve my skills.
Some time ago I stuck on the one level in flat-coloured arts. I can't really improve them for now. And so, the weekly YCH raffles began to become tedious. A routine.
But I think I found the solution.
If I want to improve my skills and I'm stuck in this type of the art, I can try another! :D
I don't want to make the full-coloured arts into raffles. It takes from me too much time and efforts to make them and, frankly, I already draw a lot of them for commissioners.
What do you think about animations, friends?
Something simple and nice like these two line-styled, but in the old Free YCH raffle format?

But a little better, since I already improved over these animations, by getting rid of artifacts for example.
So, what do you guys think? Will the animations be a good change of pace?
P.S. Sorry for my bad english. :(
If something was written wrong or sounds dubious, tell me please, and I'll try to explain it better.

Maybe in the future you could change up what is offered in the YCH raffles so it doesn't become boring and stifle you being able to improve on something you want to. Maybe offer something that may take more time but on condition that there won't be a raffle the following week. As the raffles are free work then do what you want, whether for your enjoyment or for your own practice
I look forward to your raffles every week. I love the stories you can make just by the picture alone. The animations you come up with would be different to see and enjoyable to watch what you come up with as you improve your art skills.
That being said, if anything starts to become a chore, you should try to change up what you're doing. These should be foremost to help you improve what you want to work on, so animations would be a nice thing to see if that's what you're working on now!
