My Patreon Page!

Hi fellow browsers of the interweb...


Fed up with the lack of time I have to be creative, including the drawing of the comic book series Jar I'm working on, and my own graphic novel series The Void, I have taken to Patreon!

For those who don't know what Patreon is it's an excellent crowd funding website in the same vein as Kickstarter and GoFundMe but aimed strictly at creative people who are looking for help to get their projects underway, or wanting aid in the task of getting away from the day job they may be stuck in, and free up some time to be able to pursue their dreams of being creative full time, basically to try to avoid that age old stereotype of the struggling artist from coming true.
People become sponsors and donate amounts of money to the creators in return for one of several reward tiers, therefor helping said person get a little closer to their goals.
These reward tiers include various goodies you can receive such as having your name in an issue of a comic on the contributors thank you page, having pictures drawn for you of your favorite characters from film, tv or comics etc, or getting copies of the books for free once they reach print, and at the highest reward tier even helping to create a character within the story itself!

The main aim of my page is to try to get my Science Fiction/Fantasy graphic novel series underway and eventually completed, if  I can achieve that before I die I'll have reached my creative lifetime goal and will die a happy man!
I'm wanting to undertake a writing course to make sure the writing is as good as i can get it, possibly some life drawing courses to fine tune my anatomy skills. The long term aim will be to rent a studio to work in and get the funding to get the book written, drawn and published!

It's been a while since I've had any reasonable amount of time to get any YouTube videos made, but hopefully there'll be one up soonish, I have been being creative as much as i can but it's mostly working on Jar getting the design of it all done, and lots of writing for The Void, which is shaping up into an excellent story, if I do say so myself! lol

Anyway, hope you all have a great week, here's to being even more creative in the future!

Catch you all soon!
