Community for supporting your creative projects

So, during the current [community profile] snowflake_challenge someone brought up the need for a community to support creative projects of all kinds. There are many writing-support communities and some of them seem to be pretty active, but as a fanartist those are obviously not for me. I don‘t know where podficcers, vidders, crafters, or fanmixers go for support. Maybe some fandom-specific communities already fill that need?
In larger challenges like Big Bangs or Yuletide there usually are support systems in journals or Discord while the challenge lasts. What I need is a place for my other projects which don‘t have a set deadline.

I found [community profile] letsgetshitdone and like that it focuses on accountability, but daily posting about a project is not realistic for me. My life is busy.

What would your ideal community look like? What should it do? How would you prefer to be supported? Do you already have a community like this that I don‘t know about?

ETA: [community profile] justcreate and [community profile] get_knitted were recced in the comments
