Thoughts and Input about future projects and pictures!
🕑 Added 2016-01-30 09:17:24 +0000 UTC Hello gentsHere is a random thing and a TL;DR futher down.
I just had some thoughts about future project and the current update 'system' i have in place where I usually update monday, wednesday and friday.
This system sometimes put restrictions on myself when it comes to doing things that takes longer time, such as animations, pictures with multiply characters (say 4-5 of them) or as recently was brought up, working on something like for example the emma adventure thing. (something I would consider doing in the future instead of comic updates since this is sortof a comic in a way, but perhaps also taking time from other updates if doing so to get a greater product in the end quicker etc)
I want to update often to show some love for your support, but I think we can agree that for example skipping the monday update and get something bigger on a wednesday (or thursday etc, however long it might take) can be pretty cool sometimes!
This would scramble up my update schedule a bit, when working on on say a larger picture. I'm not quite sure how I would solve this one the 5 and 10 dollar tier rewards (big majority is atm 10 dollar tier but it's also some awesome people in the 5 dollar one) if I skip certain updates in favor of future ones, but then again I could just kinda do it like i do now that the 10 dollar ones get one update more a week related to comics and such, I'll work it out if it comes to this.
Example for slightly larger projects (okay projects make it sounds bigger than it is but you know, things that take a bit longer) : pictures with more characters instead of the usuall 2-3. Animations (these are usually a lot trial and error for me). A single page comic in full color that's not rushed.
Example of really big projects would be the Emma adventure that's more like a visual novel (?) i suppose. These would require taking time from say all the comic updates and possible a bit more to finish it in a reasonable time. (this will not happen right at this momment but you know, just thinking about the possible future)
TL;DR skipping for example one update on a monday to get a more complex
picture or an animations on for example wednesday seems like an option for pictures that takes more time then the general 2 character update.
Okay that's a ramble that hopefully made some sence, this aren't really anything to drastic but somehow it ended up being a long post. Hope you are having a good weekend, I'll start sketching on something for monday now, lets see how tha goes ^^ stay awesome mates!

hehe well at least we all agree in this thread then, and I think most people will to, it's good to get it out there an alert people that I might want to do some bigger more timeconsuming things sometimes, but hopefully people will find on upate less some week worth it when the end result shows up!

Indeed, if I do something like this i will always post a headsup! thanks for the support ^^
Shiin
Yeah, basic math i suppose in a way, bigger things takes longer time, good to hear people understand and don't mind that : )
Shiin
thanks, glad to hear that, hope people will ride it all out : )

Same here, James analogy is just perfect, this is your show man. You decided the schedule because it work at the time, no one should complain if you change a bit in order to come with more amazing pics. In case you fear taking many days with no updates you can go back to post WIP and open our apetite. But this is your city, play the rules as you seem fit.

I agree with James as well. Just gives us fair warning, and we'll shout down the whiners that think you exist to make them happy. It's your time and efforts, at long as we get something once a week, many of us are happy.

Heh, I agree.

Like James said, really, this is your show, and we're going at your pace. It's only natural that a bigger result is going to take more time and effort, and so a bigger wait, but hopefully a great result for everyone. Pace yourself as you need, do what you want, and have fun :D

Do whatever makes you feel comfortable, if you want to take more time to make better quality picture than go ahead. Remember, this is Shiin's Rollercoaster, and we're here for the ride!
