>>3829402>drawing your oc as a backround character Regarding this, i was planning a scifi/fantasy comic to put on Patreon, and since it had very peculiar character designs, i was thinking to offer as a tier something like: "I'll draw your character, and put it in a sort of compendium with all the characters" (both patron's and from the story).
So on the side of the comic itself, you'd have a "characters bible" with character sheets of all these different bounty-hunters/warriors/whatever, with the character, and their info on the side.
Cool enough, but the problem i figured was: Either you make that tier high enough (and then people pay once and drop out) or you make it low, but then say you get even just 300 patrons at that tier, you have to draw 300 character sheets on TOP of the comic.
Even if you're fast, that's a tall order to do every month.
And regarding your idea, do you think that's a repeatable goal? If i pay every month, i expect something every month, but i doubt you want to include 300 patron's characters every single month in your background, unless every other panel is a Where's Waldo kind of deal.
I think Kill 6 billion Demons had demons made from people, but those were free submissions IIRC (so he could just choose which and when to implement them), and K6B is one Star Wars Cantina scene after the other, in the first place.
Not to mention if you have even more people backing you of course.
The tricky thing about comics is that they take a LONG time to produce, and offer little in terms of personalized content.
A Game Book style progression could work, where if you pay, you get to vote on where the story goes, in some fashion (as long as you can keep it intriguing and surprising).
I had even thought of internalizing the Patrons' presence as an astral kind of entity in the story (like Gods controlling fate).
My bottom line is: goals need to address multiple people at once, and be repeatable month after month.
