Regarding monthly Zone-tan runner-ups (Patreon)
Content
Since August 2017 I've been drawing the runner-ups to Zone's Patreon doodle polls every month. Over 40 drawings over 3 years. It's a fun way to maintain practise, to always ensure a drawing a month, and to force me to draw things I'm unfamiliar with. It appeals to why I draw: to make things exist that don't.
I'm considering dropping them though.
Maintaining enthusaism for every concept is difficult, especially when they're not my concepts, and I can see the quality of the doodles deprecating. Conversely, when I draw my own Zone-tan idea or a winner I want to do (see the shower video or the topless TP) they still maintain some quality.
I still enjoy the character, but I think that drawing her how I want when I want rather than forcing myself every month will be better for everyone. I have in fact been finding and creating a new set of references to make my Zone-tans better, more on-model, and potentially saucier.
To be clear: I will still draw Zone-tan, they just won't be monthly, they'll be what I want them to be, and will probably be higher quality overall.
This isn't set in stone. I'm very aware that most of my followers are from Zone retweets and the bulk of Patrons are here for monthly Zone-tans, and I don't want to let you down or gut my main income source.
I'm asking you guys first, so please give me some feedback and whether this is a deal breaker for you.
