I'm about to take a very important decision. Some of you know that gifs are a big problem for me as they take me too much time considering my current patreon income doesnt allow me to quit my job.
I've been thinking of a solution for months and here's what I came up with: replace the gif and the hong tier (15$) ability to choose the character for the polls with a 5 pannels request involving my OCs. Just like the monthly request, you write a story for 5 pannels, people vote for it, I draw it. It'd be in flat color.
Its still up to decision and I have to think it through but itd be something like that. I might alternate at first, doing gifs every 2 months. Or not. I dont know.
Cons: I wont do gifs every months anymore, and I'm very aware they're my "brand", the reason most people know my work and appreciate it, etc.
Pros:
-if i ever do gifs again, i will have all the time i want to do it right and like i want, and it wont have to be limited to around 125 frames.
-ill have time to take commissions again (its been more than 6 months)
-ill have time to do exercices and improve
-doing gifs doesnt make me progress, anatomically or just drawing wise. Drawing more individual pics will
-since itll only be around my ocs, it will force me to settle down their designs and lore, and youll finally be able to discover what the lore is all about
-way more streams and WiP pics
As you can see this decision is totally up to debate. If I take it this month (march 2021) it will apply in may (which means I'll still do the april gif). So, since I want to make NSFW my main income, my question is: What would you do with your pledge if I took this suggestion? Please be completely honest.
Note that I also totally encourage suggestions and criticism. As I said it's totally up to debate. Please tell me what you think in the comments
