Thoughts on $15 sketch stream?
4 years ago
————————— Rawr ——————————
Heya folks, your friendly neighborhood tyrannosaur here.
As some of you may have seen, I’ve been expanding into the realms of 3D animation and art, which I’ve been enjoying myself rather well with. I’ve even gotten my own model complete and is ready to be rigged (once I learn how to do that)
However, one hurdle I will have to overcome is funding for assets and tools that I will need, such as buying a redshift license to enable faster rendering, as well as environment models to build up a scene.
As such, I’ve tossed about the idea of possibly doing sketch streams on Picarto. The premise is straight forward, though I’ll be working out the technicalities as I go. During the streams, I’ll take ideas from those who are present to draw on stream, in exchange for a base $15 USD price, with tips being accepted in exchange for more influence in the piece. Ideas should be thought out in advance, and will be at max 2-3 characters, unless I make exceptions for any ideas I desire or receive tips for
I’m thinking to open a discord server that will be used specifically for these streams, as to make it easier to exchange the necessary details between those who request sketches, though I’m open to any better ideas as to how to handle it.
The information in question will of course be the FA name of the requestee, refs of the desired characters, and a simple run down of the idea. As stated above, the max amount of characters should be focused at around 2-3 characters, with a few exceptions I’d make on the spot.
Do tell what your thoughts are on this, or if you have any suggestions towards how I could manage this whole fiasco I’ve been thinking about ^^;

i think that sounds like a good idea i know some people use discord for the chat organization i also know that some can set up a order form threw stream-labs donation tab? but i have no idea how that works. good luck!

I do like the idea quite a bit. I think 15 dollars is definitely reasonable for sure. Not too high, thankfully, but its not too low, considering your art skills. As for suggestions, nothing is really coming to mind, but if any do pop up, I'll let you know.

I'd be down, I like quick & affordable commissions more than super detailed stuff usually.

It's an excellent idea for practice and to build a fanbase. Just don't let it get too out of control... $15 is fairly cheap and you will get a TON of requests. Your art speaks for itself.

Love the idea. Love your art. I think setting up a discord server is a good idea too, it will increase your fanbase. But it is also can be a lot of work to moderate. You probably will have help among your fans.
