Features for YOU and other ideas!
🕑 Added 2018-09-21 02:16:12 +0000 UTC Hey all! I hope you are having a great September. I hope the poses I'm sending out have been helpful, too!I'm gearing up for Inktober2018. On the 29th I will be hosting a Livestream on Twitch Creative while I set up the images for October. I'm using my art streaming account and I will be live from 10a-2pm that Saturday.
Please join me if you can! If you follow my Twitch channel you will get notifications when I'm live making art, too. ^_^
I've been brainstorming some more things I could add to the benefits my Patrons get. A while back I did a poll.
Direct requests was a popular response!
We are really close to unlocking requests for ALL Patrons! As soon as I'm comfortably past 200 Patrons, direct requests will unlock for all Patrons. Patrons at $5/mo. currently get these requests. When it unlocks for everyone, you'll all be able to message me any time to get a pose during the month. Typically it will take me 1-3 days to turn a request around, though it might be a bit longer if I'm close to a con or other major event.
You will get one request per dollar pledged each month, so $1 Patrons can make 1 request per month, $2.50 Patrons can make 2, etc. I'm usually the only model available, but sometimes I can fake a multi-person image. If I plan a shoot with more than one model I will try to let you all know in advance so I can help you out extra!
More frequent posting was another big fav in the poll. Before that poll I was posting archives twice a month, but now I'm making posts at least once a week. Let me know how the pace is for you! Is the current schedule good for you or would you like to see even more?
Live video drawing sessions was liked by a few, too. I'm hoping to have this set up soon. I am not sure what platform to use for streaming these. YouTube maybe? Or I could set up a separate Twitch account. Would you like them to be Patron exclusive events, or would it be okay if they were open to all? Please let me know how you envision this sort of event.
Finally, I would like to start saying THANK YOU to you wonderful Patrons by adding some promotional opportunities for you and your art. I have a wide following on a few different platforms and I could do some shout outs for your projects, commissions, or other art related events. This would probably be a higher tier Patron benefit.
I'm still sorting out the details for all of this so if you have time to leave me a few thoughts below about any of these ideas, I look forward to hearing from you! ♥ Thanks as always for your continued support, and happy drawing!

Thanks! I did set up the promo level tier as a placeholder but I haven't done any promotion of it yet.

I'm okay either way with patron only/or public live posing sessions. If it's public, perhaps make a patron-only chat? So those watching who are your patrons can submit requests? (might help with your requests if you get a lot) I love the promotional thing though! It's up to you if you want to make it public or patron-only (as in who gets a showcase). Dunno if you want to make it a patron-only thing, a talent thing (showcase the best), limit the amount one artist can get featured (in a time period), etc... -Just some thoughts to consider?

It's been going ok so far! I have a studio set up in my house so it's usually pretty quick to pop in the camera and shoot! As long as the room is clean lol 😅
