I am closing down the Patreon ๐ (Patreon)
Content
Hello ๐ฝ
I've been meaning to put this out since the beginning of the month but I've just been kind of putting it off inadvertently
It's no secret I've been sort of just on and off pausing for a while now, and that's because I've been running a little personal experiment. August 8th was when I put out my first Patron Promo just a little over 2 years ago, and I've given it the ol college try
Although I definitely do wish I had done some things differently, the final point is really just that I actually kind of dont like running a Patreon. From an objective standpoint it would be much better to keep it running and just kind of tighten up my schedule on here so I can get a little extra money for about the same workload as a relatively big commission every month, but I just kind of don't like doing it.
I've never wanted to pursue art as a job and the longer it goes on the more it just started to kind of feel like a part time job when I think I would just be happier going back to being a "free" artist
I'm probably going to do more YCHs and stuff in the future, might finally open comms, but I just want to kind of do my own stuff again without thinking of the Patreon content
I'm not ruling out the possibility of reopening, but for now I'm gonna unlaunch the page ๐ช๐ผ
---
So, I'm gonna be working to get the stuff I officially owe out, and I'm gonna be posting a bunch of WiPs and finished pieces as they come out while it's ending
I'm not 100% sure when I'm gonna be closing down shop for sure, and I don't know for sure what I'm gonna be doing with the Tier 2 Variant Packs when I do, but I'll send out another blast when I'm getting ready to close it down officially- probably next month.
It's been pretty cool running it, though! Gonna try to continue some of the aspects I liked about it going forward just in a different context
Will probably have more to say when it's officially going but thank you to everyone who's ever given me even just a one-time 3 bucks! I really appreciate it
