Survey #2 and some thoughts (Patreon)

Hey everyone!

This is going to be a pretty long post, so don't feel obligated to read the whole thing lol I'll cover the most important points in this month wrap-up post, but I wanted to take some time to go over the survey results and share some thoughts with all of you.

First of all, thank you so much to everyone who took the time to answer the survey! I got a lot of kind words, I genuinely appreciate them. While creating AI images is obviously nothing like traditional art, there's still a significant part of me behind the image, so putting that out there for everyone to see can still feel a little intimidating at times. I also got some really good suggestions, and I'll humbly take them into consideration as I keep figuring out how to make this page better for everyone.

One thing that became clear is how the art style and the variety of characters is what you value the most. I've spent over two years practicing and experimenting with AI, and I'm glad that I reached an art style that I'm genuinely happy with! There are a couple of things I'd like to work on tho. Getting better at handling leg hair patterns, making them look more natural and less intrusive in the final images. The other is improving my final editing process, getting better at polishing the little details in each image while also becoming faster at finishing entire sets. Ideally, this would allow me to squeeze in one more monthly set without compromising the quality of the others.

I'm also really happy to see that both the voting system and the remakes are appreciated! But the survey also confirmed that many of you dont nominate because popular characters always win. Randomly selecting winners is against Patreon TOS, but I'm working on system that could help give less popular nominations an opportunity to get a smaller set. By the end of the month I'll announce it!

It also seems like my suspicions about the focus of the images were right lol While feet will always be the main focus, having longer sets will give me more room to explore other visuals that many of you also enjoy.

To wrap things up, while I'm really happy with how far I've come. There are still limitations to what I can achieve with AI, as well as what I'm actually allowed to show and post on different platforms online. Still, you can rest assured that I'll keep working on anything I can improve. And of course, any comments or questions are more than welcome! I really appreciate hearing from you, and I'm always happy to discuss these things with the community.
