Important Patron Only Poll: Doc Wotsit Comic
- Yes! Do it! That sounds fun. 43
- No! Don't do it. I like things the way they are. 2
TLDR: I'm considering starting my own comic series. Skip to the Doc Wotsit section at the bottom for specific info.
It was in July last year that I started drawing at least one pic a week to see if I would be able to handle the stress of Patreon without falling behind. I suffer with anxiety and taking too much work on in the past has led to me withdrawing instead of drawing. I promised myself I wouldn't start a Patreon if I couldn't handle it.
It seems crazy to think I am fast approaching a year on Patreon. As such I am reevaluating the past year. What worked and what didn't. Most of all what would make me happy.
I've always wanted to do my own comic and tell my own stories. Though to be honest that doesn't mean I would be any good at it. I've been influenced by many great fictional adventures over the years and I've always wanted to make my own. I have tried a few times but due to my stress and anxiety and the crippling fear of failure I have always felt I had to put the idea to the back of my mind.
Part of the reason I started this Patreon was that I believed if I could handle it than maybe I could return to commission work, and begin my comic project at long last. And here I am, nearly a year later, and I know I can handle it.
This poll is to determine if you guys would like to see me tackle this project or not. If the winner is "Yes" it will likely effect my tiers and rewards to some degree, due to my needing more spare time, and the inclusion of work from the comic. If "No" things will carry on as they have been doing all year, with minor adjustments.
I wanted the comic to be written in something I call the Cerberus format. All NSFW elements would feature on a 2 (4/6/8 etc) page spread and would always be on an even numbered page followed by an odd number. This would allow me to remove either the SFW sections or the NSFW sections easily and provide the story in three different ways, without interrupting the flow of the narrative.
1) Full. All pages.
2) SFW only. NSFW pages removed
3) NSFW only. Story pages removed.
I've always wanted to tell a story but I always wanted to do it in a way that let people tailor it to what they wanted to see. Story is everything to some people and just gets in the way for others. Why not both?
