Patreon Content Experiment Survey
🕑 Added 2023-05-01 11:21:18 +0000 UTCHowdy folks~
So serious question here, as I do want to continue making content that everyone here enjoys!
I have noticed over the span of months that interest for OC material and OC Sketches has been increasing, but interest for Fanart material has been decreasing. Seeing this pattern happen for a while, I actually want to experiment a little by switching things up for a month or two or three and see if it's something you folks would enjoy more!~
I was thinking of stopping the Fanart Poll for a short period of time and focus more on OC-centered content for Red Sand and collaborative content with other OCs! This would mean there would be more OC content and the possibility of doing more joint work with other creators, including you all!
This would be a massive shift for the experiment since Fanart takes a LONG time to do, and suppressing that feature would mean I have more time and energy to devote to other types of content I feel others have been more interested in with my work lately.
Plans I have for more OC Content would include:
- Red Sand Stories (Including exclusive lore)
- Fun side stories and variants for Red Sand (casual outfits)
- Exploring more story ideas outside of Red Sand
- More OC art of other creators!!!
Is this something you would all be interested in trying with me? Please let me know your thoughts!~
If you have time, I would definitely appreciate if you could also vote on this poll regarding this matter

Yeah! Work smarter not harder!

That is a GREAT suggestion! Honestly, the little sketches have been taking out a LOT on me so, less pressure on them would definitely help.

I think my main suggestion would maybe be save yourself some pressure on the fanart side of things. I love that you do the little sketches of all the characters involved before the polling. But you can save yourself a lot of work by showing one of the references included. It puts a bit more focus back into the poll itself.

Honestly, I'd say the best option for fanartd given our time and knowledge is that you pick up some of your personal favourite options and let us choose among them. This is just a personal suggestion, though :)

Thanks Obli! Honestly, I don't want to drop the fanart completely, but I feel like I may need to focus more on other content if there's less interest in the Fanart stuff. Hence I want to know honest opinions.
Hinewguy
Thanks friend! This definitely gives me a perspective. I have noticed that there is less participation due to people having less time to search and suggest a character for Fanart Polls. I also don't like the idea of Fanart entries having an obvious preference towards just one or two characters.

I do think it's a good idea to try ❤️ love your OC content and the opportunity to see more of them and to see more joint work with other OC /creators does excite me ❤️ I do have some selfish reason for being excited about this too XD That being said I do feel a little sad about the fan art content going away. It's lead to some pretty amazing pieces from you. Maybe they just need the same amount of charm as your OC draws/sketches? Idk interest rises and falls like waves. Maybe the feature just needs to be reworked a little. Not sure how xD but I'd hate to see fan art go away completely. Well those are my thoughts ❤️ Can't wait to see what you do next Hinew ❤️

Honestly, man, it's your Patreon, so you should feel free to do whatever you see fitter and more pleasing to work with :) I admit I have barely participated on any polls lately for two main reasons: 1) I simply don't have enough time because of my super-intensive course, and 2) I always tend to think that my chances are narrow to non-existent, anyway, so I don't even bother in the end. Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to see whatever you've got in mind :)
