Free discussion about the survey (Patreon)
Content
I am writing this post to comment and discuss with you some suggestions that have come to me as a result of the survey I sent you in recent days. I thank you all for doing so. I would like you to comment with what you think so that together we can improve this Patreon page. This will be a long post.
Let's move on to the suggestions:
1) PULLS FOR CHOICES ON COMIC
That's the advice I've been given repeatedly. I need to figure out how best to integrate it. I don't know how other creators use this, if you support other creators using pools I would like to know how they do it. Which pools could be done?
Example:
In what positions should they have sex in this comic?
Where should these two characters go out by date?
etc., I can't think of many questions that don't heavily influence the story. If you have suggestions please write.
And how long should these pools last? 7 days is too long, we would finish a comic after a month. Maybe just one day?
Or, another option, you could make an alternative version of the comics already released, entirely chosen by you on how it should develop. It seems more comfortable to me with comments at this point, though, rather than a poll.
2) Comics released more often/More content
Here the only other option is that instead of releasing one part in its entirety, I split it in two and release the first part first and the second part later.
Honestly, in my opinion, it is better to have a full part.
To complete a 150-160 page comic I cannot take less than two to three weeks. It is physically impossible. I am working every day, even on Sundays.
Other creators I have seen release one page a day. I don't know, I'm not convinced. You tell me what you would prefer.
3) Stories seems to end quickly as if rushed.
I have to be honest, I am not a fan of comics that last for 20 or 30 parts. I like comics that end in 5-6 parts at most. I prefer to tell more stories than to be stuck in the usual 3 stories for 30 parts.
So far, the only comic you have seen finished is YWWBMPP, but as I explained it was not well thought out from the beginning. That's why I had preferred to finish it and start with a new one, maybe that's why it seemed rushed to you.
4) More renders
I am trying to maintain a "Free weekly" and a "MASTER render" weekly. Adding more would mean delaying the release of a comic even longer. If even a few times I forget to upload a render to Patreon, trust me, I am working on the comic. Patreon renders are well researched, with often distinctive scenes and outfits, and it takes me at least half an afternoon to make an image.
5) More video/ VR content
With video creation I have stopped lately because DAZ (the program I use) is very limited. I would have liked to learn Blender, yeah-if I had time. However I will definitely make more in the future.
For VR content on the other hand, in my opinion they are the future. I am ready to use them, but, now it would not make sense. Probably only 1-2 of you have the VR visor. We'll talk about that in a few years. However in the meantime I will do some tests and upload them here.
6) Custom commission
Actually there is commissioned content. Only one of the three active comics can be commissioned, though, and so far the slot is full. However if you are interested please contact me privately to discuss.
7) Other
I read the other advice you gave. There would be no point in discussing them here, but I have read them and I am taking them into consideration. Thank you for sending them to me.
If anyone still has advice to send me, the link remains active:
