Welp, I finally did it. I got a FurAffinity account. I'm slowly uploading relevant images over there, but I'll still be on here and Tumblr and Twitter. https://www.furaffinity.net/user/wheatart
Hopefully this will show my art to more people and open options for commissions. Commission Info: https://wheatart.com/about
Anyone else over there?
UPDATE: I think I'll launch the YCH auction next Monday (Feb 12) so stay tuned! :D Hey! I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this, so I'll say what I'm thinking.
I've done a couple long transformation comics recently, usually because a certain animal has caught my interest. They vary from 4-9 pages, just based on how I'm feeling.
I've been thinking for some of them about potentially doing a YCH auction and I wanted to see what people think?
I'd have some ground rules. There wouldn't be editing or adjusting the sequence (compared to my commissions, where I get feedback on each stage, and the client tells me what they want me to make), and for the most part, depending on the comic I draw, most starting points would be human. The animal would already be locked in (maaaybe some colour variations), so you would be sticking your character into the scenario I've already created.
If I do this, I would plan on announcing it on FurAffinity, Deviantart and Twitter, so I would need a central point for starting bids. I'm thinking Ko-Fi, since I could then post the full rough sequence for people to see if they would like to bid on it.
I would also base the starting bid on the number of pages. If it's 5 pages, then I think the starting bid should at least be $120.
So those are my thoughts! What do you guys think? I would love your feedback!
(Also, first one that I may do on this would be a 5-page Moose sequence, so do with that what you will)
I made a Ko-fi!
I've been wanting to do something like this for a bit, where I can get tips and support for my art, even if people can't afford a full commission. I figured this one isn't as pressured as Patreon, and depending on how things go, maybe I can start uploading WIPs and things.
I am on the Bluesky site (@Wheatart) and I also have an invite code? Anyone want it?
I'll update this as I get codes! I have another, so lemme know in the comments if you want it!
I just got an anonymous Core membership gifted to me, so I just wanted to say thanks!
