So I have a patreon now.
4 years ago
Yep.
https://www.patreon.com/user?u=95062
I'm honestly not expecting much. It's very barebones right now, mostly because I have no idea what to offer on it. Most of the usual common things I can think of would require extra work/time/effort, and it's not that I'm just too lazy, it's that what I see as one of my main weaknesses as an artist is my speed. I'm so much slower than I'd like, and adding too much extra work on my plate seems like the kind of thing that could easily push my output into the territory of "once every four months" or something.
That feels like it would be horrible for me, and unfair for the people who would be generous enough to support me. So I'd rather avoid that.
Two things I think I could work with:
1: Weekly streams when reaching a certain milestone: I think this one would be fairly easy to implement and entirely unobtrusive, given that I'd just be showing the work I'd already be doing anyway.
2: Some kind of commission-sniping tier: I did take a tentative dip into doing commissions in recent months, and it seems pretty okay. However, I will absolutely need to keep those as somewhat of a "sometimes food" because, once again, speed. Just a few regular commissions could easily eat up all of my art time and essentially block me from my own ideas, and that would be pretty not-good. So I was thinking of keeping commission slots extremely limited and occasional, and maybe having a patreon tier where supporters could gain access to said limited commission slots a couple days before the general public. Probably not super worth it right now, as I'm still not even fully sure how I want to handle commissions, and it's not like there's a pileup of potential customers just yet.
Anyway, if you can think of other easy-yet-desirable things I could offer to my lovely patrons, feel free to propose them anywhere you can find me.
And obviously, if you want to show me some love, help support me, orshackle my weak artsy hands to your every whim with the chains of money tell me what you think my art is worth, feel free to toss a few coins my way!
