Absolutely not. I can't afford to be nickel and dimed to death by every artist who might draw something I like, only to turn around and vomit furry all over the place. I would rather commission exactly what I want, and get it.
Patreons are damaging commission work as artists will often only take commissions from followers, or prioritize them over non-followers. For me, as a customer, Patreon sucks. I tend to look for up and coming artists who haven't fallen down the Patreon hole via Pixiv, and if Y-gallery ever comes back, that too. But I won't support a Patreon, ever.
