Patreon TIER UPDATE. Please read!

Hey guys!

I hope you have been all doing well!

I mentioned this shortly on the Discord, but here Im going to explain all the details and reasoning behind this change.

I've been thinking for a while, the patreon has not been working as I'd like it to, and I feel it has been making things less productive for me. 

I first associated it to the monthly Painting, but after dealing with it I realized that the issue was persisting. I feel stagnated and unable to move on through projects, and that makes it really hard for me to keep a decent productivity. It is very burdensome to carry a painting that I have been working for over 6 months and keep myself interested in it. And this leads me to the 'Passive commissions'. 

At first I thought it was a great idea to allow those who really wanted to support me to have access to a commission, thats what you are all here for, my art. But I feel it hasnt been working well for me any more. This is why I have decided to remove them entirely.

I want to be able to take a project, start it and finish it while Im still interested on it. Move through paintings and feel productive again. Open for a commission when I have the time for it and finish it.

This means, commissions will no longer be behind the paywall. I will open commissions openly. Patreons will get an early announcement, so you will have better chances of getting them, but after that they will be announced to the public, as I have been doing with the sketch commissions.

THESE CHANGES WONT APPLY UNTIL NOVEMBER. And this won't affect commissions that are already on the process of course.  

Tiers  and how they will change:

$1 Pledge will change to $2, and will get access to Patreon exclusive Livestreams!

$5 Stays the same

$20 Now will also get process videos and access to past recorded streams.

$50 Pledge will change to $60, will get a monthly Traditional piece sent to you AND receive ocasional GIFTS (as pints or any kind of merch when I do them, sketch gifts like the ones I do for Christmas, comic cameos, etc. Consider them as random extra goodies!)

Only those 4 Pledges will remain.

Commissions, when available, will be announced here first, and on FA and twitter afterwards.

Im still considering options on how to announce the Livestreams though. I dont like making posts on the patreon page every time, because it looks clattered and seems spammy to me. I may make a dedicated discord account for it, but not everyone uses discord. So if you have any good ideas for this let me know!

Thank you all for your support as always! you are all amazing. I hope these changes seem fine to you, but dont worry, if they no longer fit what you want I completely understand and expect some people to leave or lower their pledge. I appreciate everyone's continuous or past support!
