Fewer, longer animations? Or keep things as they are? (Patreon)

Doing a mini-animation each month instead of a longer one has been a nice break from the big, stressful animations, but there's no denying that they don't have the same oomph that a big animation with an actual climax, so to speak. Also I do lots of mini-animations otherwise so it does kinda just feel like "Hey here's one more". I mean, I like them, but maybe it's time to switch things up a bit. I can't go back to doing a huge animation every month, that was killing me. But, I'm considering spending the time I'm currently putting in each month working on a big animation instead, so that we would end up getting a big satisfying animation once ever handful of months instead of a mini each month. Pros and cons- biggest con, you have fewer opportunities to suggest an animation as it would only come up every few months, whenever I manage to get one done. If I were to guess, it would be somewhere between 2 and 4 a year depending on complexity. (You'd still be suggesting the content of the painting every month though!) Yeah, that doesn't sound like a lot, but that's just how much more time a big animation takes up. If my goal is not to go back to grinding away most of my month every month on animating, that's how it gotta be!Pros- well, the return of big filthy animations! If less frequent, anyway. An important note- this isn't only about what you want, but also about what you're willing to support. If everyone likes the idea of seeing bigger animations again great, but if everybody then turns around and leaves until they think big animation suggestions are due again, there's not much incentive for me to stick with it is there? :PSo, be honest! Do you like the idea of getting to put in suggestions for occasional big fancy animations at the expense of the little ones (and will you stick around for that), or should we just stick with what we've got so you get to see a wider variety of stuff and get to try your luck more often? There's a poll here but feel free to discuss if you've got thoughts to share!
