PATREON, SUBSCRIBESTAR AND KO-FI!
I've been thinking of starting a Patreon, SubscribeStar and Ko-Fi! Not to worry, though! This is mostly a tip-jar! I also might be fun to have polls for "drawing of the month" that I'd post! It would feature ideas that I'd want to draw anyway; it'd be fun to let folks decide which of those they want to see first!
Basically, I'll be running into some funding issues in my life soon, AND I was thinking I want to draw a LOT more! Having done a lot of thinking about this a great deal, I think this could be really fun and motivating! I think y'all would love seeing more art from me, so everyone wins!
I'd set up different tiers, but it's really just levels of whatever feels most comfortable to donate, that's all! Probably a $1, $5, and $10 tier for starters.
If I decided to post "exclusive" art, it'd probably only be for a week or two before I release it to the public! I don't like punishing folks for not wanting to spend the money.
I'm thinking of setting this up soon, maybe mid-November!
PLANS!
Chromatophore and I want to stream every Friday at 7:00PM CDT / 5:00PM PDT, and we're thinking of streaming most Sundays from 2:00PM CDT / 12:00PM PDT until we get tired, or have other plans!
We want to be accountability buddies because we both have big projects we want to work on!
For instance, I realized my Tremmie and Evan series was turning into a 30-page comic book. I don't want to make a comic book! I am pretty sure that's why I was dragging my feet about making it. I decided I'd do a series of 10 or 11 images, sort of like my portfolios back in the day! At this point I'd just want to draw it and post it, but I'm not sure if I'd want to bother with selling it. I mean, unless y'all want to throw money at me for it!
Basically, I want to do a bunch of series with all my characters, and they're all going to be so much fun! Having an accountability buddy will help me stay on task!
In 2025, I want to work on character sheets for the sketches I posted recently!
Not sure exactly when I'll be opening for commissions at this point, but if all goes as I think it's going to, it's probably going to happen sooner than later!
