Nope, I've tried contacting some artists here and through Discord. Most only want to produce one kind of content. For example their responses are lesbian only, futa only, yes or no to transformation, etc.. That, or they want a ton of money because "xyz other property is making $10k/mo on Patreon."Hmm, saw a new game about a chemistry student. Looked and saw it wasn't yours. Did you pass on this idea and feel the other projects work better?
While I respect that they can set their price, and I pay artists up front, that's part of the reason there are so many start-ups and a few old properties. Some people would rather make 10-20 portraits a month servicing a fetish & curate their own Patreon. I can respect that because there's only so much time for work and personal life.
But I'm a workaholic, so instead of hiring an artist whose aesthetic matches my intent I can teach myself. I can write scripts, storyboard, and produce projects for the studio. Then work on Better Living in my personal time.
