September's Requests (feedback)
🕑 Added 2023-10-04 09:21:04 +0000 UTCHi there. I thought I'd give some feedback on last month's Requests. I make this public so non-Patrons can see also.
Initially I wanted to be making something visual like this below but it simply takes too long to make and with more proposals it would become a nightmare time-wise.
So I will stick to text for this as it will be way easier to handle in the future. When I say (skip one month) I mean you can propose them again but not the immediate following month.
Joan Landor from Captain Future - Yes (I would draw it in the future) - (skip one month)
Yuki Kei from Captain Harlock - Yes (I would draw it in the future) - (skip one month)
Cammy (Street Fighter) (zero/alpha clothes) - done - (skip one month)
Iris (Princess Trainer) - done - (skip one month)
Jessica Rabbit - done - (skip one month)
Lola Bunny - I wont do because Patreon doesn't like seaxualizing "animals"
Polar from Evil Genius 2 - No, I had a look at her but doesn't inspire me to draw.
Silica from Starchaser - Maybe, idk. - (skip one month)
Taarna from Heavy Metal - Yes (I would draw it in the future) - (skip one month)
Shiina “Misha” Mikado from Katawa Shoujo - Maybe - (skip one month)
Miranda from Nikke - Possibly Yes, but difficult to draw - (skip one month)
Nana from Refantasia: Charm and Conquer - Yes - (skip one month)
Chicha from The Emperor's New Groove - done
Humba Wumba, from the Banjo-Kazooie series - Yes - (skip one month)
Tara Boumdeay, from the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes - Yes - (skip one month)
Charlie Morningstar (Hazbin hotel) - done - (skip one month)
Nurse Worse (OC from artist Dr. Crafty) - No, she doesn't inspire me to draw.
That's all I believe...
HOW did I pick them? Of course I always look at the higher Tier Patrons ideas first. BUT, picking one to start drawing is mostly spontaneous, the inspiration of the moment. I look at the discord channel where I have them all listed for easy reference and the first that "clicks" at the moment is the one I start drawing.
For example, this month I started with Charlie Morningstar even though the person proposing her is not one the high-end Tiers. It doesn't matter, it clicked to me and immediately jumped at her. That's how I pick them, to be fair with everyone =]
Tomorrow I will post the new Requests (for October) post.
I will also update the Megalink because I forgot to do so inside the month. Sorry..
See you tomorrow =]

I'm fine if you're more inspired by going a little looser with Silica's design. One of the things about more obscure characters is it's just nice seeing any artwork for them. Change her as you see fit.

Hey thank bud. Silica is an interesting challenge and thanks for all the reference. I was just a step away from doing her but I was wondering if I'd change her or do her original looks. In relation to Jennifer Wakeman, I have seen so much inspirational alts of her that allow me to draw (Jennifer) loosely. But Silica? How would you like her if I did her?

Nice, I did hope that would help you all. I am a bit chaotic and impulsive in my decisions because if I would only draw popular and trendy characters it would get boring. I don't say I want to be drawing only awkward characters, but when I pick them I try to give them some "love" =]

Appreciate the response and summary. Always nice to see openness on what artists will and will not do.

I like this system. It answers my questions of "who should I suggest this month." Knowing what is and is not on the table helps me decide.
