Adding Miniature Painting to the Commissions/Patreon?
🕑 Added 2020-01-23 21:55:06 +0000 UTCSo there's been a strong push for me to diversify, since writing takes as long as it does. The list of suggestions has been quite "interesting", but y'all are my support so I figure you should have a say.
First thing's first though, speaking about commissions, as of today, the base price of writing commissions is going up from 2¢/word to 3¢/word. I may add a Patreon tier for the original price as an incentive, or else add it to the Sponsor tier, I'm not 100% sure yet. The Patreon would need to grow enough overall to support commission discounts (to put it in a math perspective, the Patreon would need to grow to support the equivalent of an average commission each month for me to be willing to lose 1/3rd of the value of commissions). I may add that as a new goal now that I think about it. When I get the means to do so. Moving on though
So one thing that has been suggested, since I love painting (I will add a pic on one of my miniatures to this post so you can see my work), was to take on miniature painting commissions. Honestly, for basic single models I can punch most of them out in a day with my high contrast cell shaded technique. Little worried not everyone would like it, but it is an idea. Cost for commissions would be I think 15-20$/hour I expect to work, with cost of shipping and any specific paint colours I need extra. There's also been suggestion that I'd be able to stream painting (and writing for that matter). I'd need a few things though, namely: computer; better camera; better lighting. I actually have most of a streaming setup from my old job, so things like mic quality wouldn't be an issue (would need to re-invest in some softwares though).
The other thing(s) suggested was pretty much starting a blog. Learning to actually tag posts properly and basically becoming something of a thot. So pics of me, occasionally in slightly suggestive outfits, always with my mask though (it's a privacy thing). Then from there doing some professional Dommeing. I am not sure how kosher that is with Patreon's ToS. As of last time I read it, provocative modelling was totally fine so...? I dunno about this one though. Time spent with a sub digitally would be time not spent on writing, and I really like writing. One kind of non-thot application of this would be an "RP" tier to the list, a tier that entitles you to like, a set amount of Matty roleplay time. I'm stupid picky though when it comes to grammar and rules, so I am SUPER trepidatious about that idea.
So... Yeah. Those that support me, would you want to see more, and diverse content from Madam Materia? Imma add a multi-vote poll to this post when I get the chance, or else have it as its own post (god I hate Patreon's mobile restrictions).
Cheers, and as usual, you have no idea how thankful I am to you all.

P.S. I promised you a mini paint. Here it is, I defs need a better camera and maybe a light box for these pics. XD
