Overhauling the patreon banner ideas
So this picture that I've kept as my patreon page banner is really old but due to liking it a lot I've never actually wanted to change it.
I kind of wanna update the look though but I'm not sure if I should make it a more presentable safe-for-work style header where if you know what's here you know or whether I should make a really explicit display of what to expect here to draw more people in.
I'm going to make two simple drafts and we can compare them. Feel free to drop any ideas on what you think would look good on the main page. Making a new picture or combining paintings together or whatever, shoot!

How about an ocean of different bellys and sizes? :3
Just paint a remake of it Kip=D
Quick suggestion: All your main comic characters performing a group selfie on the beach.
How bout a redraw?
I’m all in for the remake of this same banner showing your growth in your artistic skills!
Honestly whatever you’re proud of and your consider commercially functional is probably best. The idea of something a bit more in the SFW direction seems useful on the one hand, but honestly it’s not like I indiscriminately leave this tab open so I don’t think that should really be a factor. Probably I’d enjoy it more to see a cute drawing of Cindy with her cleavage spilling forward or such. I like the idea of showcasing several of your popular characters together. Maybe the whole banner is a big ear wing (sorry I don’t know the word) and each feather has a girl on it. Sounds a little complicated!
I think doing a group photo idea is cheesey and mildly pretentious. Just simply update the one you got; use a different character, different post whatever but I think keeping it relatively simple is a good idea
I'd do a sampled "group picture" of some of your best/favorite works. Your content isn't exactly SFW whether it's lewd or not (it's basically softcore at the least), so I wouldn't bother caring about that.
I think the bigger the tease, the bigger the market pull. So crank that tease up all the way to 11!
Maybe put some of the MCs of your Charakters into it
I just keep thinking of the Filia art, the new banner could be something like it.
The current banner is still good but your art style has improved. My only idea is just like pick 3-5 of your characters sprawled all over each other in various states of undress, bellies exposed after a big meal.
I really like the idea of remake/updating the banner with your art style having improved and changed throw the years, as for any ideas to add how about changing the character in the banner to one of your main girls from your comics/stories and adding the other girls in the background. With this you keep look of the old banner which you are fond off but also show bit of you main works that you made throw the years, so the banner becomes like a celebration from then to now but this is just my idea of it and would probably take some time to make, I hope this helps in anyway.
I really like the remake idea that has been said here, since you’ve always been fond of that as your banner and you’ve never really wanted to change it, so an updated version with many more years of experience plus your current style might be cool. This is definitely the one I’m leaning towards Also like the MC/OC new painting idea, but that might take a while due to the amount of main characters or OCs in the Kipverse. Although, it’d be interesting and cool to see some old characters drawn again. The collage idea sounds great too and would likely be a lot easier on you as it’d be a combination of old pieces Also like the Sydney idea, because, well, I’m biased and she’s my favorite of all the gals
Another character i would love to see up there would be Cindy 😁
I think making Sydney(hope that's the right spelling) your banner would be pretty neat.
Maybe like a collage of all your comics’ characters/ a new piece featuring all of the MC’s (since that’s the majority of content posted)? Of course it depends on what you’re more intent on showing people for a first impression
Maybe having small panels of each of your main comics all side by side could be cool. With your name or the Patreon logo at the very center. All the panels melding into each other, like a big crossover just for the banner
You should make a remake of the current banner! It looks really good and i would go with the explicit option instead of something formal
I've always like the header you have I'd just say revamp it to reflect how much you've grown as an artist over the years.
