IMPORTANT UPDATES: Time for a change~!

Howdy there patrons, it’s announcement time! So grab a beverage and your favorite snack and let’s hang out for a second!

Before I really get into it I just want to take a moment to thank you all again so much for your continued support, it genuinely means the world to me and I’m so glad you’ve all chosen to join me on this adventure~!!

That being said, I really wanna start making this journey start to go a lil more smoothly and make things just a bit more exciting for both y’all and myself - so with the onset of summer and new beginnings, I’m going to be making a couple changes around here!

First of all, I will be getting rid of my $1 tier - after a while of debating this I came to the conclusion that it just doesn’t feel necessary to me for this platform. If you’re currently on the $1 I fully understand if you can’t do any more than that at the moment or simply choose not to~! I’ll be re-opening my ko-fi soon as a tip jar if you ever feel like donating there, and I’m going to be getting back into the swing of regularly posting on various other platforms - so you’ll also be able to find more of my work there as well! If you’re able and would like to upgrade to one of the higher tiers, allow me to tell you about the changes coming to those!

At $3, I’m going to continue to be posting stream commissions once they’re completed. I don’t post these anywhere else unless they’re used in a promo, and I typically ask commissioners to wait at least a week or two before posting if they choose to, so you’ll always see these before everyone else! I’m also going to start posting bigger commission WIPs to this tier as well as personal project sketches, so you’ll be able to see a lot of my in progress work!

My $5 tier is going to start seeing at least one monthly OC or fanart character illustration, as well as any finished works for personal projects and the like! Besides this new content, you’ll continue to have access to all the work in my Patreon feed as you already have~ 

I’m also going to be adding an additional $5 tier with all the same benefits, but catered to be completely SFW! I wanted to add this option for those who enjoy my work but maybe wish to just see the more wholesome side of it. This’ll also help me keep more of a balance with my ideas, and ideally challenge me to push my content in all different directions! 

And in even more exciting news, I’ll be adding a brand new $10 tier! At this level, I’m going to be doing monthly content and idea polls, as well as patron-only streams! These streams will range anywhere from exclusive sketch streams, to commission work streams, to personal free draw streams, and possibly even request streams if the moon and stars align~ Ideally I want to try and do these streams bi-weekly, though the exact days may differ week to week. You’ll also see announcements for commission openings a week early, so you’ll have advanced knowledge if you’re pulling for a slot! 

And last but not least, my $100 tier will remain exactly the same! I’ve cut the spots for this tier down to 3 since it’s inception to help manage an easier workload, and all spots are currently full! If and when a spot opens up, I’ll be sure to make an announcement on here. The work from this tier will also continue to be posted here at $5 and higher~

“Wow Skye, that’s a lot! Is that everything you wanted to share?” Almost!! Just a few more things before we wrap up.

Aside from the updates to tiers, I’ll be giving everything a bit of a facelift! This will be primarily cosmetic, but it’ll really help a lot in making this place feel a lot more relevant to my personal interests and aesthetics. This includes general descriptions, tier images and names, as well as a new banner photo! Like I said, all of these changes will be cosmetic so don’t fret if everything suddenly looks a bit different - other than the tier changes mentioned above everything else will function exactly the same!!

All of these changes will be coming into effect within the first couple weeks of June to allow everyone some time to plan accordingly if you want to change tiers at all! I’ll also be moving to the pay-up-front system for pledging from here on out as well, though if you’re already pledged and happy with your tier this shouldn’t affect you~

Overall, I just want to be able to share more of my work - my ideas, my characters, my stories, my worlds - with all of you. For a while now I haven’t been in the greatest place [both financially and mentally] to be able to really take on these endeavors, but having made a lot of headway on the latter in the last year or so I want to finally start taking steps towards truly realizing some of these ambitions. Hopefully with all of these changes moving forward this community will only continue to grow, and I’ll be able to share even more with you as it does. Again, I sincerely appreciate all of you so much for sticking with me and I’m so excited for everything the future holds. Thanks so much for sitting down with me for a sec, I’m glad to finally be able to announce all of this to y’all!

Happy adventuring~!! And remember, don’t pick up TOO many cursed rare items~
