1) Creating a "NSFW Archive"
The idea is quite simple. I'd create a post with a small preview of each pin-up created on the past.
- 1 nsfw image per pin-up (not all variants)
- 1000x1250px size (it's the size I post stuff on my social media)
The idea is to serve as an official "sample" of the work I've done over the years, and not a "full access to everything I did".
Digital art always "finds a way" to the internet ;) , and works created years ago are literally one google away for people to find it anyway, so it doesn't make a lot of sense that people actually supporting me don't have access to it.
HD files, PSD, Video files + all the NSFW variants will still be exclusive to the regular monthly rewards (or gumroad).
2) Increasing Gumroad discounts on older bundles.
This is not a change on the patreon structure, but since most of the people that buy packs on my gumroad are actually patrons first, it makes sense to let you guys know about this.
I'll be making a progressive discount of the older bundles (2015 - 2019) on my gumroad so it's cheaper to get older works for the people interested.
3) Changes on the "series" (those sequences of Iris/Maya that are 4 sequential images).
Being 100% blunt and honest, the current structure is not working.
When the series were introduced back in 2018, they were intended as 4 sequential images with very little background, in a more rough art style so it would be possible to create 4 images on the same timeframe of a single pin-up. (about 5 working days)
But they gradually evolved into "black and white pin-ups". Nowadays they have pretty much the exact same amount of details of a pin-up, so 4 images end up using half of the month. And it's specially more problematic now with Iris and Maya. Because a series with both of them with 4 images means 8 characters being painted.
So they require a lot more effort now than an individual pin-up and they were originally created to require .. less effort.
What I'm planning to do is to make them a bit more like a comic book page. So I can focus more on "what's going on" and telling a small story, add detail to what needs to be detailed so it's possible to do them in 1 week instead of 2.
"How would that look like?" That's a great question. And I mentioned on the monthly recap (from earlier this month) that I planned to do something different on the voyeur this month.
So the voyeur image for this month (Carmen Sandiego), will have a similar style, which is to create a "small sequence" of images, instead of a single "static shot" so it will be possible to see if this works or not. Which can potentially solve a small issue some of the voyeur images have, which is the "camera angle". So we'll see how this works =D
Anyway, you can vote bellow if you liked those changes, and if you didn't, it would help a lot if you elaborate "why"
