I can't even fully express how excited I am for this month - mostly because its a lot of really cool cosplays that I worked extremely hard on that I did photoshoots all in extremely interesting places! Every set is A M A Z I N G!
You could say that instead of September its......... Set - temper xD

So we are starting the month with Fashion Ruby inspired by art by Babsdraws for all tiers. This is probably one of my most professional looking cosplay ever - I had a lot of fun challenging myself with clean craftsmanship! For Cute Rawr I am finally posting my REFLECTIVE Stocking Cosplay! ITS PRETTY! And one of my most ambitious builds. Another beautiful set is my BNA Michiru set for all tiers. Personally I am super happy about the location we shot this cosplay. The cityscape worked perfect for it! Lastly I will be posting Kill la Kill Ryuko for Cute Rawr. After many years of wanting to cosplay and do a photoshoot for Ryuko... its finally happening!
Behind the scenes I will be starting on MOTHMAN! If you haven't seen the design - its up for all tiers! Also will be prepping for Halloween which is about a month away! Which means there will be cards very soon! Details on that more towards the end of this month!

With me releasing Stocking this month - I figured its perfecting timing for a Holo Glitter Stocking sticker (yes it sparkles)! This month I am giving Print Party ($45) and Cute Rawr Super ($50) this super amazing Stocking cosplay sticker drawn by AtomicBrawler!
Pledge Print Party ($45) or Cute Rawr Super ($50) *the physical reward tiers* for this aggressively adorable sticker (only available this month).

If you haven't noticed already - I made a featured tag for every selfie set I have ever done. That way its more easily accessible to all patrons!
Something you might notice is that I haven't yet archived any selfie sets to higher tiers - so there is over a years worth of selfie sets available now at the tier I originally posted them to - WOW!! September will be the last month that selfie sets don't get archived along with the main photosets.
So for instance this will be the last month to see both the Bunny Haruhi photoset and selfie set at their current tier (Cute Rawr).
A small list of some of the selfie sets that are getting archived to the higher tiers in October:
*yes I intentionally said "small list"... this is a list of all the selfie sets so far for 2020. THERE ARE STILL A TON FROM PREVIOUS YEARS THAT I SUPER RECOMMEND CHECKING OUT BEFORE OCTOBER! Anything older than 3 months old gets archived. Right now all 40+ selfie sets are available at the current tier I posted them to.
When you get the chance I highly encourage you to check out the selfie sets before October - I really hope you like all of them!

Once again we are doing TWO Community Days! The only difference from previous months is we will do one Community Day that is on the weekend and another that is during the weekday. I super understand some people are available during only weekdays or only weekends - I want to give more people the chance to participate in Community Day!!
Last Community Day the theme was definitely defusing bo mbs in Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes based on PURE LUCK! Morse code almost got us... but with seconds left on the timer we took a wild guess and beat the level!
*with that being said... omg someone learn Morse code because dang fam xD
For those who don't know what Community Day is...
Its a day that we do Patron Exclusive Voicechat Parties and play games together in my Discord server! Its a really great way for us to get to know one another and create fun memories!
If you haven't already make sure to set up your Discord to your Patreon account that way you get the special roles that give you access to the secret voicechat/textchats!
Link to instructions on how to get your Discord Patron Role
I will be putting up a poll in the Patron Announcements of my Discord server! Please help me choose what days work best for you!

There are a ton of characters in RWBY and I get a ton of suggestions all the time of what other characters I should cosplay! I think it would be fun to make and cosplay another character from the show so I wanted all my patrons to help me decide on which character!
that will help me decide which character to cosplay (besides just Ruby).

I will do a patron exclusive photoset for all tiers
(outfit and photoset is more SFW)

I will do a patron exclusive photoset for Cute Rawr and up
(outfit and photoset is NSFW/boudoir)
With Halloween + card season coming up very fast - I know these are extremely realistic goals that I can see us hitting pretty fast!
If you want to help reach the goal - keep doing what you are doing. Any form of support helps me a ton whether it be sharing my public social media posts, liking my content, recommending friends to join, commenting on posts, etc. Your support means so much to me and allows me to keep creating costumes so thank you so much!

If you were pledged Squad Goals or higher in August (and have not requested a hold) I am currently shipping out your physical rewards.
If you are in Cute Rawr or higher (as long as its a tier that has physical rewards) you do have more reward options.. be sure to fill out the form listed in the August Rewards Post before Sept 3rd!
*or DM me if you need the link to the form*
Please be aware that due to what is going on in the world regarding the virus - there will be shipping delays.
If for any reason you don't think that you will be able to receive your physical rewards for this month due to the lockdowns - I am offering to put your rewards on hold and have them shipped to you in a later month. Please let me know if you would like to put them on hold. If I don't hear anything from you - then I will go ahead and ship them this month. This option is available because you are extremely important to me - I want you all to be safe and get your rewards!
Example:
You pledge in Sept for the Sept rewards.
Come the first week of October I will ship out your rewards.
If for any reason you don't get your rewards... PLEASE MESSAGE ME!
*also if you want physical rewards make sure you are not in the digital tier, opt in for them and have the correct address listed on your Patreon account*
*if you don't want physical rewards you can always join the digital only tier so I know not to send anything*

Speaking of digital tiers.... Cute Rawr and Cute Rawr Super both have Digital Only Tiers. It is exactly what it is named... digital only! I know a lot of you asked me about having a digital only tier - I got you fam!
If you just want the digital content...
.....these digital tiers are great option to have!
Regular Cute Rawr and Super Cute Rawr both have the same rewards they always. But also come with physical rewards.
*You can change your tiers at any point during the month! So if you change your mind and want to be in the physical reward tiers you can edit your tier any time before the end of the month!*
Another reason for these digital tiers is for tax purposes. Rewards are taxed differently depending on where you live and the type of reward. I wanted to give those the option to have digital only rewards without having to be taxed for physical rewards if they only want digital rewards. Patreon made an announcement regarding taxes. If you are interested in reading more about it. Here is the link.

Did you know that I give you access to previous sets!? Here is a list of all the sets that I will be archiving to higher tiers at the end of Sept. So be sure to check them out before the end of the month!
Also make sure to take a look at all the selfies sets that are from July and older (those will also be getting archived to higher tiers as well).
It's going to be a great month! Can't wait to share it with you!
