TIER CHANGES
Added 2021-08-06 18:06:11 +0000 UTCHi all, just wanted to make a lil announcement concerning the Patreon and the Subscribestar and a few changes that are going to be made with them.
Over the past couple of months as im sure you may have noticed me and art have had a bit of a strained relationship. So much so that I feel that the Patreon and SS have been suffering in terms of quality and upkeep as business entities. Basically, I dont feel like im doing enough and of a quality im proud of to continue running the Patreon and SS as I have up to this point. I dont plan to shut them down or to stop drawing, but I do need to make some changes. Im wanting to explore art in more a hobby sense, not that ill be drawing less, but instead things like monthly art polls, the griffin sketch tiers, etc, the aspects of the platforms where im drawing stuff because I have to and not because I want to will be dropped.
I want to make Patreon and SS more of a tip jar type situation, where youll still get leveled benefits depending on teh tier your subscribed too, but it will be much more "behind the scenes" access as opposed to paying for a service. Where instead of saying "I will produce this much content this month" It will instead be "come here to see the content I do make"
- I totally get that this might make some peeps want to leave, I totally get it. I just think that this will be the best thing for my relationship with art to continue, cause its been really hard the past couple of months. I used to love drawing and as of recently its really become much more of a chore, so I want to make art making less of an obligation and a job and more of something I enjoy doing again. i wont make any promises that Ill be making more or less content but I honestly think that with complete freedom to draw what I want again, Ill be more energized to make more and better art. So as always, thank you to those that have continued to support me, and I seriously this helps things lol.
- The Griffin Tiers will be sporadic, in that for the most part I think I am going to drop them in exchange for the occasional commission, and reopen them when I have the gumption.
- For the Sparrow and Harpy badge, I just want to make it totally transparent that comics and animations I do are sporadic, and is very much an instance of "when I make them" So if your subscribing to one of these tiers to see that kind of content, you may want to subscribe to a lower tier if you're worried about that
- The monthly polls will be dropped. Tiers will keep their voting power for any polls I do put up, but having a poll every month will no longer be an aspect.
