Sketchy paintings, illustrations, content frequency
🕑 Added 2020-05-28 23:53:36 +0000 UTCI want to make a concise poll for you guys. Over the next couple months (so I can hopefully allow more time for Totally Not Gay and for my wrist to continue to heal), I'm considering trying to do more sketchy paintings (like these two Sly images) rather than one big, huge, time-consuming image each month.
A current issue I'm running to with Patreon is that I feel like I currently am split in my mind between three possible worlds.
World 1: I'm a comic artist devoted solely to bringing my comics to life. Totally Not Gay is a dream project for me, but got a bit shoved aside due to injury and time spent/income concerns.
World 2: I make lots of hot sketchy paintings of fun rule 34/personal content. This means more upload frequency of sketchy paintings like the recent Sly pics.
World 3: I make fewer, but super detailed pinups/scenes of fun rule 34/personal content. More or less what I'm currently doing.
Now, keep in mind that the reason I'm asking this, is because each of these options come at the expense in some way of the other options. HOWEVER, note that however we choose here, it doesn't mean that it will be permanent. It's mostly just to keep things interesting here and bring you guys as a group the stuff you're most interested in seeing. Personally, I can have fun with any of these options, so I want to hear your feedback for it.
In an ideal world (and hopefully in the future!) I would just do all three. But, right now I still have to work as a commissioning artist as well as on this Patreon, so I don't have the time to put out tons and tons of high quality content on here just yet (still need to pay the bills with other work unfortunately). When my wrist was healthy, I was able to do both commissions and Patreon and just offer extra content here, but now I have to choose very carefully what I spend my art time doing.
SO, my dream is to one day be able to make all of those worlds just one big consistent content stream from here (like what Zaush or Anhes or some other popular patreons do!). Until I can pay of all my monthly expenses just from Patreon, I'll have to focus on the most valueable/fun stuff for you guys.
With all that said, which direction would you like me to go if you had to choose one for the next few months?
