I promised to keep you updated, so here I am, back at it again! My last journal had tons of feedback on nearly every site I posted it on (mainly DA and FA) and I wanted to thank you all for taking a few seconds to, you know, share your preferences. These days I've been working a lot, both for the Comics School and for.... Well, my actual job. Had to push some of the homeworking aside tho, in order to make space for some of the commissions, since they were paid and, let's say it, I definitely took too many XD
Not a big deal though, as long as I draw I always have fun, no matter what. My only regret is I hardly find time for my personal exercises which are the ones that help me improve both my coloration and drawing skills overall. I will have to fix that. But, by the way, I was wondering...
What if I opened a Patreon? It'd help me a lot, since it would make the time I draw (even for myself) more profitable. Don't worry, I don't plan on having no exclusivity whatsoever, it would mostly be the "tipjar" Patreon model, my favorite kind. Basically you just put whatever you want on it whenever you want to help me do more and better what I already do. The reason I'd go for this model is, basically, I don't like "exclusivity" and let me get into the whys.
First off "exclusivity" would mean that I would inevitably have to exclude some of the people who follows me with genuine interest by not making them see my work, and that alone is already sad enough. Plus, I just think the whole "targets" thing is a little scummy, not always, but generally speaking I don't like it because it's I don't know... Dirty. I want EVERYONE to see what I do, even those who have no money at all. Of course, if I ever open a Patreon and the tipjar method does NOT work I might find myself forced to use the exclusivity model somehow, honestly I'd rather do the tipjar or nothing at all personally. But, you know, if it doesn't work properly starting with the exclusive thing might be a good way to begin only to slowly remove it with time as I (hopefully) gather a following. Just wanted to be clear and honest with ya'all from the getgo.
