Rare Collectibles
@rarecollectiblesRare Collectibles, run by Ryan Serrano, a Filipino digital sculptor working at Weta FX in New Zealand, offers a unique Patreon experience focused on high-quality, original 3D printable models. Ryan's professional experience in character modeling for film shines through in the intricate detail and cinematic quality of his designs, ranging from original figures to props. Since launching in April 2020, Rare Collectibles has amassed a community of over 150 members, demonstrating a growing appreciation for his artistic vision. While generating modest income (currently within the $20-$80 range), the platform serves as a space for Ryan to share passion projects outside his professional work, providing exclusive content for a dedicated fanbase of 3 paid patrons. The modest financial success underscores the focus on community engagement and creative exploration over immediate profit maximization, creating a compelling mix of professional skill and personal artistic expression.
