PROPOSAL: Redlines

Hey, gang! I'm still coming up with ideas to make sure things stay alive and well over here, so I'd like to throw an idea past you for your feedback:

What do y'all think of redlines? How many are you are interested in learning more about how comics work, and how many of you are working on projects you'd like some feedback on?

Here's my idea: a $5 Tier where anyone who has materials they'd like a second pair of eyes on can submit those materials for the potential to get some feedback on them. The All Patrons Tier would get one post every month where I pick one person's project to take a look at, break down, and give them some pointers (submitted in the format above).

I would only have time to do one of these each month, considering that I'm trying to do the comic as normal, and you guys could ask questions that I'll do my best to answer on these posts. I would accept comic pages, illustrations, etc etc etc. (The only thing I wouldn't accept is NSFW or Adult Content.) 

Is there enough interest for something like that? Lemme know what to do!

PROPOSAL: Redlines

Comments

I'd be super happy to have any kind of 'bigger' tier to support things during the break.

I will happily accept any content you're willing to put out with all the gluttony of a baby birb but with none of the screaming. :)

Firefall

I am interested in learning more about the behind the scenes of comics (or even animation/storyboarding if you're up for it).

The World Needs Heroes

In the interest of my own sanity and keeping things simple, I can't answer any questions about legal matters surrounding the comic and the studio contract. Thanks for your understanding.

Meg Syv

So legally, were do you/we stand on the "any work you don't do on the clock is yours" & would it have any effect on this redline tier?

YESS

Lady of Monsters

I love this idea! Where would one submit their art, in the comments? I like the idea of learning how to do comics. I have a story in my head I've been wanting to get out for a while.

It's a good idea, though I have nothing to share that way

maninblack

I would not likely be able to take advantage of this as I'm not an artist. But I am a writer. Would you be open to red lines for other styles of art besides visual or comic? Also would this be a public or private critique? I'd assume public, but the option for private might be nice.

Fletcher

I would totally want to learn more about drawing comics as I'm trying to get better at it, but... well... sharing my stuff and have others critique it... I don't think me or my self-confidence/self-image/self-worth are ready for that x) Seeing other people getting their butts handed to them and getting critiqued, now that I'm down for, mwahaha xD

Sniper

Would love this. Even though I don't have anything to submit, I'd love to see a comic critique!

Tanna Borrell

Industry insight like this would be a delight to read!

That sounds like a cool idea, Meg!

Jack Newbill

I am ABSOLUTELY on board with this! And not just because I keep getting stuck when I make things! XD Even at one a month, it sounds super-educational and fun for us all to see!

Mary Williams

Sure, but with the understanding that concept art is not my area of expertise.

Meg Syv

Like I said on twitter, I think it's a great idea! A good redline is invaluable; and I feel like especially if you're just starting out in some fields, this would be super helpful.

StarByter

I don't have a project to get red lined, but I would find value in seeing some of the process. So if the red lines get posted here then yes

PhaineOfCatz

That would be quite fascinating for me, so I vote yes! It's fun learning more about how [art form/career type] works!

I loooooove Redlines/frequently take advantage of them from the two other patreons I support. Everyone loves getting advice and input from artists they admire and I think you’ll find a lot of success offering this no matter how you format it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

CaitieCat

Aaaaa this is so great!! I’m so down for this, are you down to critique concept art??

Sound great

No no! This was supposed to be Brent proposing to Thistle!

Robert

I AM SO DOWN FOR THIS
