At first I was against it. Artists putting up paywalls to see their new art. The fine artwork of the recent past coming to an end as it becomes more & more a "pay-only" privilege.
But recently I've had a change of heart. Patreon has produced some stellar art that - even for the MEMBERS ONLY sect - eventually makes its way to the mainstream. But more importantly, it has revived some of the top artists of the past with the lure of actually making a living with their art. Some of them have faded away in the middle of a comic or series because real life demands their undivided attention. There simply wasn't time for a diversion - even if pleasurable - that makes no money.
Welcome to adulthood, kids.
Recently I've seen comics I'd mourned as long-dead come back to life. I've seen artists I'd written off as vanished forever suddenly start producing art again.
For these reasons I am now 100% behind Patreon. I support several artists who tickle my fetishes. So to those, I say thank you for coming back. Hopefully some of those who wandered away to the dreary gray world of adulthood find their way back to the rainbows & marshmallows of the world of furry art again.
