So I have an idea...
🕑 Added 2021-06-05 23:32:09 +0000 UTCHello there everyone, hope you've all been doing alright and keeping yourselves cool as the summer heat is starting to roll in!
So I've been contemplating this idea for awhile and would like your thoughts on this idea! As you can tell I haven't been very active lately, my job has been burning me out and my art drive hasn't been the greatest but I've been trying to think of something I could do to push myself to draw more...and it hit me; why not work on sketches for you guys?
As a massive thank you to all of you who have been supporting me, I'd like to try this idea of putting you all in a list at random, pick at least 2 of you and work on a sketch of your character/idea! I owe you guys so much for what you've all done for me, and I feel like my WIPs and updates haven't really been fast enough to justify that, so I feel offering you guys a chance to get a free sketch from me can be a better idea for the time being. The time frame I'm looking to work with would be 2 patrons per month, since right now my work-life has been interfering with my regular drawing time, so I think 2 per month will work out fine for now. But if I can work faster on them, I may work on the sketches within less time, we'll see! I'll work on whatever rules I can but...I don't really think there'll need to be any? Just that I will only do these sketches for patrons but not followers, that's absolute. And I may go above and beyond with the sketch depending on how long you have been following me?? I want this to be as fair as possible but I'm still pondering the kinks of how to make this work ^^;
But any, what do you all think? Does this sound like a good idea? <=3

Absolutely, thank you Vadric =3

Just going to echo Aeron, pretty much. If it's good for your "flow" when it comes to your art and what makes you feel good then definitely. Just don't go getting yourself overexerted! No good ever comes from that (source: ME! Euughhh... paaaiin...).

Maxwell B
Aye, and best of luck to ya then!
Ryuakira
Indeed, its the least I can do for you all <=3
Ryuakira
Thank you Aeron =3
Ryuakira
Mhmm, that's why I'm starting with 2 per month and see how well that goes, and go from there =3
Ryuakira
Alrighty then =3
Ryuakira
For sure Sei, but that's why starting with 2 a month is the best option, I should be able to handle that much for now =3
Ryuakira
Absolutely, taking this as slow as I can =3
Ryuakira
It should be alright starting out slowly with this =3

Ryuakira

Ryuakira

Cool Geist =3
Ryuakira
Yes indeed! Hehe, well you're certainly able to ask of such ^^
Ryuakira
That's why I think working with 2 a month will be the best start for this =3 And everyone will definitely get the chance, just not all at once <=3

sounds fun! A real nice reward for followers.
Aeron
Love the idea! But don't put too much on yourself and only do it if you think you can handle it.
Maxwell B
I'm all for this idea, just be sure you don't bite off more than you can chew. Set like some parameters to keep expectations reasonable and the like. And if this does go well enough, you might be able to expand upon it later when thing are (hopefully) less busy/chaotic.

Amen

Sounds like a lovely idea, to be sure, I’ve said before That I’ve always wanted to see my dear Jessin your style c:
Seishan
I'm only for it if you're sure you can handle this without feeling more stressed out Aki. I just don't want you creating more stress for yourself.
Cha11engerD
As long as you can handle it, man. Don't burn yourself out on our account.
listix
If this idea doesn't cause you any trouble then I say go for it. I would love to get a drawing from you.
Micky

Mysteryman01

LGslam

Mordak

Jon Geist
I'm for the idea.
smithyrod
Sounds good to me. It gives you something to work with art-wise and rewards people who support you. I know I'd be up for a sketch of my OC in your style. :-)
Scope Creep
If it's not stretching yourself too far this honestly sounds like a good idea to increase engagement to me, it'll keep people on the lookout if they got lucky
