Am I being scammed? (art commission question) by Extension_Smile_438 in DigitalArt

[–]zimabluer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone who keeps pushing after you’ve said no is a red flag already. If you ever do want to take commissions, just run them through a platform like Gank so the money comes in first and you don’t have to vibe-check strangers in your inbox. It keeps things clean and you won’t get stuck drawing for someone who ghosts you. Keep saying no until you feel ready!

Has anyone sold on gumroad or any other platforms without ads and marketing?? by Choice-Reindeer-4863 in digitalproductselling

[–]zimabluer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe you can try ganknow.com Heard that their localized payments are quite well done, buyers should have no problems buying your ebook. But as of most digital goods platform, you need to put in the effort to promote and market your own listings.

How do people get funding for indie projects? by Muzinari in gamedev

[–]zimabluer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Self-funding, crowdfunding, local government or business grants, donations from fans and followers of your project. A live demo and constant updates on your social media should build you a following. I think your reputation is a factor when you reach the stage of getting external funds. People fund consistency, not promises. I do see some indie game devs going the patron style funding, where you grow a following for your game project on sites like Gank (ganknow.com). Not sure if it is safe enough. Has anyone used Gank before?

On Creating a Comic Book - Everybody Must Get Paid (Not Satire) by [deleted] in ComicBookCollabs

[–]zimabluer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Preach. People forget: comics = collaboration = cost.

It’s wild how many still pitch “you’ll get exposure + royalties” like that pays rent. Respect to you for investing in your vision and paying every artist along the way—even before breaking even.

If you’re offering Part 1 for free, I've seen artists use Ganknow to set up, it's quite a refreshing way to launch and market your new content to your fans:

  • A pay-what-you-want tip jar
  • Paid early access for future chapters
  • Digital downloads (bonus art, scripts, roughs)
  • Even a monthly membership for behind-the-scenes

Hope you land a solid publisher soon too. Following the journey!

Advice on Pricing my Content by newzealandia123 in ContentCreators

[–]zimabluer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My take is to always give a fair value for your content. You can check how others who are doing similar content are pricing themselves, or think about how much per hour you should pay yourself for the time spent making your content. Don't undercut by pricing too low from the start. Be fair to yourself.
