I know that it's really hard to get a personal project rolling on a crowdfunding portal and I'm seeing many great artists and authors that have some difficulties to get to their fund mark.

I was thinking of thinking of trying a kickstarter on a project but I am not sure of what type of feedback I would get. I know that pageviews/favorites/comments shouldn't be considered as a true measure of actual followers or interested people in my artwork, but I'm pretty sure I don't have that base number of people that could at least give me a chance.

So what I now ask to whoever takes the time to kindly read this post is, would you be interested in my eventual project? I know there are many factors that can influence your answer (if it's fantasy, superhero, sci-fi, horror...) but I just want to know if there is at least an initial interest in what I could do.

I know I would have to start a mega spamming crusade and start hammering all the web medias ( something I'm not used to considering I'm pretty introvert:)) but I wanted to know if anyone here on deviantart has some sort of interest or curiosity.

I humbly thank anyone who takes the time to read and eventually answer:)

Well, I've been having fun following, so I can't say I wouldn't be curious. Like travis said above me, you never know if you don't try!

I guess your right, I won't know what could happen if I don't at least try so I'll start brainstorming on some ideas.

Thanks Audrey!

it all depends on what is. I have run 3 successful projects in that last 15 months. They are a lot of work but you never know until you try. That's what makes kickstarter so great, it gives you a chance to see if an idea will pick up traction or not. If it doesn't than you reevaluate on making it more appealing to the masses.

I dont know if you are interested but i just did a complete write up on creating a successful campaign. Im not tooting the horn here, I just feel what you are going through and have been there myself.

here's the link [link]

Once you come up with the idea let me know, if it is appealing to me- you bet i would support it. In fact I pick up most of my comics that way that i want to read

Wow! You my friend have given me a great view on how to organize and understand the factors necessary to create a kickstarter project. Thank you so much for your insight and for passing on your experience.

Many would have kept their knowledge to themselves, especially if they have found a succeeding method so I really respect your will to help others!

Thanks again, hope you won't mind if I ask you for advice if I should have some doubts:)

You are welcome- I don't mind passing on knowledge especially to those that I know will use it. I have had some incredible mentors that have guided me along the way. I think that it is only fair and good karma to do the same. We are all trying to make it. It's just a little nicer when someone hands us a hand.

And ask anytime. I am always around.
