News and Updates
Added 2024-07-01 17:47:08 +0000 UTCMhmm ... "Welcome survey results" ...
what people, new patrons, are looking for.
Makes me realize that I do indeed not exactly focus on updating info here on Patreon ...
Granted, I might be heavily "biased" towards my DeviantArt page, where I have the vast majority of my "followers" ... nearly 10k vs about an average of 42 Patrons (lowest being around 28-30 and highest about 51) ... yeah.
I understand that I'm really not charging much for my stuff, never intended to anyway (if you look back at other updates I made in the pas), but as little as it may seem to most, it's still an extra 60 bucks a month on average that allows me to buy a few assets (always stuck to my initial promis to reinvest everything made here into the project, and I'm still holding to it, so much so that it doesn't even cover 40% of the money I spend every month on new assets ...
But that doesn't matter, any help is better than no help, and clearly, I haven't been creating content as a means of making money, I'd be charging more if that were the case.
Just want to remain transparent and honest with you all. No disrespect intended.
And honestly, I still don't consider myself an artist worth spending more on than I'm currently asking for.
Well, that leads me back to the title of this "update" ...
I guess it's a new feature, trust upon us creators by Patreon, without me ever having asked for it, a survey new patrons apparently can answer upon subscribing (am I mistaken somehow . Cause I never got something like this when supporting other Patreon creators) ...
Thus far, I've seen "Merch or products for sale", "Exclusive work from the creator" & now "news and updates" being voted for as what people want to see more of.
So as mentioned in the first part of this update / message, most if not all of my watchers are basically on DeviantArt, which is where I publish most of my news nd updates (when I have something to post / share), and in a way, I'm surprised that any of you could have discovered me here and not on DeviantArt, thus were not aware of me on DeviantArt ... it seems extremely unlikely that anyone could have discovered me on here (Patreon).
But I'd love to be proven wrong ... would actually be a legit surprise to me.
Either way, it's been voted for, and you are supporting me, so I'll make much more of an effort to also post my texte updates here in the future.
Sorry for lacking / not making it a priority.
Even though you might not be 10k, you're still the "on average" only 42 people who are financially supporting my work, and I certainly should be showing more gratitude for it.
For real, my bad :/
