Proposed changes to pledges (please read)

Hello everyone,

I’m posting this to let everyone know about what’s happening now and what will happen in the future for this Patreon.

For what’s happening now: I’ve removed the unpublished tiers as I wanted to move on from those. I have also removed the top tier pledge that came with a sketch slot. I have a few reasons why I did this, but the main reason was that I wanted to focus on creating content for everyone as a whole. By doing this, I am hoping this will help give me more time to make more content shared to both the base and upgraded tiers, as well as give me time to finish all the owed sketch rewards from before. On that topic, I am slowly making headway on finishing those owed sketches. I have more than I anticipated, but I am working on them so please bear with me while I get those finished.

For what’s happening in the future: I am going to be making adjustments to what I will be posting on Patreon. This will be more of a “dividing content in proportion to the Patreon tier” sort of action. I don’t have anything concrete just yet, but these proposed changes will be made before the end of the month. Said changes are as follows:

• Previous tiers and rewards:

  • $1 Tier (Basic): Tip jar. May upload some WIPs and other content, but not a guarantee.

  • $3 Tier (Standard): Access to finished animations, rendered images, and WIPs.

  • $6 Tier (Plus): Access to everything in the aforementioned tiers, with extra rendered images.

• Proposed tiers and rewards:

  • $1 Tier (Basic): Tip Jar with occasional additional posts.

  • $5 Tier (Standard): Access to finished animations (at least one per month) with an occasional rendered image.

  • $10 Tier (Plus): Access to finished animations, even more rendered images, WIPs, character polls for future animations, and other goodies.

The major changes proposed to the tiers are making the “standard tier” a more direct line to finished works while offering more content for those who would like to see behind the scenes work and unpublished works for a bit extra per month. Hopefully, these changes will encourage current and new patrons to pledge accordingly to what sort of content they want and to encourage me to be more consistent with posting more content on Patreon. I will make these changes before the end of the month, possibly adding the new tiers within the next few days.

Thank you again for your consideration and continued support,
