Potential new goals?
🕑 Added 2021-07-07 15:03:23 +0000 UTCThis is just a brainstorm, because every time I have a bad day, I go back to full throttle “become financially independent“ mode and USUALLY, that’s me pushing through extra job applications and the works, but rejection is kind of the norm on that end (sighs)
ALSO why I’ve been doing the stuff with the store recently - thank you guys so much for helping with that so far!!!
But Patreon IS the place where want my income to be focused - commissions are good and well, but it adds up, and if I can make money without adding non-Patreon related things to my queue too often, I’m gonna do everything I can to do that.
here’s the vbre (I can’t delete text and I’m already too far into the post now, thank you iPad) here is the BARE minimum picture: I need to be able to make enough to support myself and my kid without relying on family. Nothing bad has happened, don’t worry, but things are getting emotionally treacherous for e me these days, and I need to be able to stand on my own two feet if need be.
making art was probably not the best career choice for someone wanting to raise and provide for their kid, but it’s what I’m best at and I wouldn’t be able to stop making art even if I wanted to lol
basically, I want to add more goals to motivate more people to pledge without adding more rewards related tiers - or anything else that would just add to my queue. And Lucky! has been struggling since the move + summer starting because, to no one’s surprise, Ant being home from work means I actually have LESS time to work, it turns out. But these would be monthly illustration/mini-comic inspired goals. Things I could do once a month based on these specific themes, so it fulfills the reward BUT doesn’t take too much time to do, like fulfilling multiple rewards a month, you know?
anyway, nervous rambles aside, here’s what I’m asking: would you be interested in me adding fanart and/or nsfw themes once we reach certain goals here?
Fanart is pretty straight forward, all I do right now is commissions of other people’s OC’s, and my own OC’s, but I’d love to do more star wars, marvel, or video game related fanart of peoples favs!
and nsfw would probably ONLY be my OC’s to start with, and once we reach higher goals, MAYBE I’ll do nsfw fanart (BIG maybe, because I’ll have strict rules on what characters/fandoms I will or will NOT draw if that happens)
Both categories would either be a character illustration, or a mini-comic, depending on polls and y’all’s input on such things.
I know nsfw isn’t everyone;s up of team and I’ve run this Patreon a LONG time without making the switch, so I wanted to ask you guys first before I made any depictions. (Decisions, JESUS, iPad.)
So, pick whatever fits for you or comment your suggestions below, your input is very important to me! Thank you!
(also, tomorrow my 30th birthday, so I’m gonna CRY)

First: HAPPY 30th BIRTHDAY!!! Second: Pls don't cry, unless it's happy tears. Then pls do. Third: Thank you for asking us before you made any depictions (haha, your Ipad talks funny!). Fourth: I think it's a great idea to use this platform for monthly goals/polls, and I would love to see your specific take on famous characters, or your OCs in different situations. Like Red grocery shopping, or Lucky eating sushi for the first time! Just be clear from the beginning what you are not willing to draw, and stick to it so you don't feel forced making stuff you don't feel comfortable with. Fifth: Best of luck! Sixth: You are great, you've got this!
