Survey Results, Patreon Tier Changes, and Gumroad Store (Patreon)
Content
Hiya, everybody! I hope you all are having a wonderful February!
Survey Results
Here are most of the results from the survey I sent out last month. Thank you to everyone who participated!
I mainly asked these questions because they were on my mind most of the time. I'll explain what I was thinking at the time underneath each graph!
Question 1: What would you like to see me draw more of?
This was to get a better idea of what people wanted to see. I knew Fire Emblem would be at the very top (since it almost always wins the polls, hah!), but it was nice to see what other series people wanted.
Question 2: Am I lacking in NSFW content?
I was worried that most people weren't here for NSFW (or did not want to see it at all), so it was a relief that a lot of people didn't mind it, haha! I'll try to do more of 'em since they're fun to do and I get to practice anatomy.
Question 3: Would you like to see less WIPs, doodles, studies, etc?
I had a short burst of showing a lot of WIPs and studies/doodles, so I got worried that I might've been spamming people too much. I'll go with the compilation method on Patreon, but I'll still keep the images separated in the monthly art packs.
Also, in case some people didn't know, you can always turn off email notifications for certain Patreon creators that you follow. You'll want to go into Settings > Email Settings and you can see the notification settings right there.
Question 4: Do you read the journals I put out every month?
I mainly write the journals to keep track of my progress and my thoughts, so I was curious if people read the walls of texts that I posted up. I don't care if people don't read it, so don't feel bad if you skip over 'em!
Question 5: Who's your favorite character, and what series are they from?
I asked this since I'll occasionally do a random doodle, but I won't really know who to draw. So I'll take a gander at this list when I want to choose something at random, while also making someone over here a bit happy. :)
Question 6: Do you have any suggestions on how I can improve? Do you have any feedback?
I wanted to know if there was anything else I needed to improve on! I already have a few in my mind, but it's good to see what others think as well.
Again, thank you guys for answering the survey. It gives me a better idea of what direction I should go in, as well as giving me your individual thoughts on what I'm doing here.
Patreon Tier Changes
So, I did several changes:
1. I had to remove the monthly raffle since it was against Patreon's community guidelines.
2. Because of #1, I upgraded all of the monthly art requests in the tiers!
Teadot ($5+) now has these choices: sketch, derpy chibi.
Ropot ($10+) now has these choices: flat color sketch, derpy chibi.
Artpot ($20+) now has these choices: flat color sketch, chibi, derpy chibi.
These changes will be applied starting March.
3. I removed the $5-$20 tiers that did not include monthly art requests.
4. In Artpot ($20+), I removed the redline/critique reward due to lack of interest.
I may add in some more rewards in the future, but I have to think about them, haha.
Gumroad Store
Due to a few people asking and suggesting it in the survey, I've created a Gumroad store with the past art collections. If you'd like to grab some of the older ones and you weren't a patron at the time, please look over here!
And I think that's it. Whenever I'm thinking about what to write for the month, it always feels like I don't have much to say, but when I get to it, it takes me an hour or so to type everything up!
