On The Topic of WIPs
🕑 Added 2026-01-05 21:42:10 +0000 UTCHello!
Just a quick post because I wanted to gauge everyone's opinions on work-in-progress renders in general. Do you love seeing them? Do you not like seeing them? Do you not really care one way or the other?
I mainly ask because, while it's something I've always offered since this Patreon has been open, and while I don't really want to change things too much around here, I'm not really a big fan of posting WIPs in general. I don't personally feel that they're that exciting to look at, and I would rather just reveal the full render when it's finished. Sometimes I just get caught up working on something and forget to render out an early WIP test render for a project too, which is why they're somewhat inconsistent.
But of course, I don't want it to seem like I'm trying to get out of doing them, especially since there may be people for whom it's a big reason they've subscribed. I would try to replace them with something else, possibly more alts or something, and doing more alts is something I want to try focus on a bit more this year anyway.
Although again, if people really like seeing them then I am happy to keep doing them, although it still probably wouldn't be for every single render.
Just wanted to see how people felt about them, and if you have any suggestions I'd like to hear them!
Love you all, hope you're having a great start to 2026. <3

I like the WIP and having them posted in a .zip or archive

I think a wip to ask for opinions is good. A wip for wip's sake is not necessary to me. Leave them as a tool when you need them, otherwise do what you enjoy.
