Sculpt Quantity vs Variation and Theme duration

Hello everyone!

Today during lunch I was looking at the work of other artists, and kept wondering am I going in the right direction, what should I change to Improve, so I decided to open this poll to help me understand what you guys think and want.

About the way I work and what I am doing:

Every month I can sculpt 4 (3+Patron Commission) unique Medium size models, with some sort of variation and modularity. 

I work based on a Theme decided by a poll, Current theme is Draenei and it will be delayed (Because of Modular Draenei, Finishing the arms and will pause for September Patron Commission, resuming in October). In mid-October, I will start the Elves.


What I won't change:

Every month I open a Patron Commission to sculpt something requested by a Patron. I find this process amazing, to sculpt something I was not planning. It's not productive but is cool.

Whenever I finish a sculpture, I release it as soon as I test print and it's possible.


Regarding the Modular Female Draenei:

I won't be making them, because of Time schedule I don't want to delay the elves. 



So what can I change to improve:

A) I can reduce the number of unique miniatures to add more poses,  from the 3 themed sculpts I could reduce to 2 to add more poses, maybe 3 for each (still maintaining the weapon modularity and a few removable pieces).

B) Are you interested in 75mm or only in tabletop size miniatures? I could add a 75mm scale every 2-3 months, knowing that a 75mm would take a bit more time to finish, because it has more detail than standard miniatures. 

C) Because of the Delay Draenei is going for the 5th month, maybe not only because of the delay I do have my share of guilt, I added more things than planned. So, should I change the Theme every 2 months (6 unique sculpts or 4 (total of 12 poses)) regardless of planning? This way things don't get too boring for you guys.  Changing a Theme is not really a Change, keep on the same theme will always be available and will add 1 additional month to that theme (this way we can keep going until the majority of you guys are ready for some fresh air, unfinished business can always be requested during patron commission). 

Vote 1 options A, B, and C or simply vote the last option. Also, feel free to leave comments with any other thing that you think could improve.

Sorry for the long post, but I think this would be really helpful in improving.

Best regards,

Ivo

Agree with Kaschwau!

That's what I was thinking. This way I can propose a increase in the scope refreshing the timer if you guys wish and I can really finish the scope. As spoken by the Mandalorian " this is the way"

Maybe it would then make sense reduce the overall scope of what you do? That way, time management should be easier and if you do get more done: bonus.
