Wish I had a Patreon but too anxious to start - thread
Main topic: how popular do you have to be for it to gain any traction at all?
I've been wondering this as well.
Aside from having a base following to get you started, I think what you draw is as important as how well you can draw.
I've seen plenty of very skilled Patreon artists who have virtually no followers, and it seems to be because people aren't interested enough in what they draw. Specific projects or fanart seems to be the way to go.

not need to be a big thing, if u have 200 followers on tumblr and get commissioned 1-3 time per week just open that shit. just look how shitty am i, shadman, just put dicks on poorly drawed women and get all the obama coins.

This is genius just imagine the amount of monies goyim would pay by the thought of their waifus having feminine dick. Has anyone tried a project for basically drawing people's favorite characters bearing Chad's thundercock?

hm, I have about 450 followers, but haven't done commissions yet. then again, I don't draw manga style.

youre a legend so that dont count
because you're so fucking shit and so fucking vile, you gain attention and your name plastered all over the internet whenever someone say shit artist.
just do it OP and remember to promote yourself. I dont even have a DA and i got 200$ my first month. i only have 300 followers on my tumblr and i rarely open commission but i charge about 130$ an illust.
just remember to not sell yourself short. i see a lot of patreons offering like... their soul for 30$ tier. you are worth shekels.

I have over 3k followers on tumblr and the shit I post gets 1k+ notes regularly and I still get no commissions what am I doing wrong? Do I need to push commissions more heavily?

is this a troll? are your commisions easy to find and your prices are very obvious? is your email easy to find?
