Patreon Milestone and Reward Tier Changes

 Hello to you all :D

I have just rolled out the new patreon milestones and patreon tier changes I have discussed over the last month. I wanted to take some time to outline the changes and how they may affect each of you. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to post them in the comments below or message me directly. I will try to get back to you as soon as I can.

Also keep in mind that I will be keeping an eye on this and the feedback. If these change prove to be unpopular I am not against going to how it was before or making further changes.

- Milestone changes

The biggest change is that I have done away with the hard number amount of pictures/pin-up/comic pages that are promised each month. The hard number lead to too many months or me rushing to finish comic pages and then fill the last slots of the month with rushed pin-ups. After taking your feedback about what you all liked to see a majority of you that responded wanted to see comic pages or pin-ups. In light of this information I have refocused my efforts into the comic work. While you may see less pin-ups each month more work time will be put towards the comic projects. This includes concept work and script work, not just comic pages. I will still do some pin-ups from time to time for fun and the patreon stream/reward pictures will be providing plenty of pin-ups for the patreon feed.  

Each milestone now simply has a "comic tier" to let you know that I am able to put more work into the comic projects. These tiers go up to Tier 6 at $1600, which will pretty much be the max amount of time I can spend on comics without more help.

The only other changes involve the possibility of hiring assistance with the comics. I have added the possibility of hiring some part time help to the $2000 tier. Still don't want to make any promises but I should be able to get some part time help of some kind once I hit $2000 milestone. I have also added the possibility of hiring fulltime assistance at $4000. That seems like a long shot at the moment but I rather have it doesn't hurt to have goals for the future.

- Patron Reward tier changes

Here are the changes made to each patron tier in a easy to read list. My goal with these changes was to make the middle tiers (alchemist, and cleric) more attractive.  Again, If you have any questions or concerns don't hesitate to ask in the comments section below or message me directly.

• Henchman ($1) tier - NO CHANGES
• Squire ($5) tier - NO CHANGES
• Alchemist (10$) tier - Squire rewards, 2 patreon stream subject suggestions each month,  Monthly Cache (Zip file with high rez versions of all completed work and wips for the month), Access to written work for the comic projects (if spoilers become an issue I may need to revoke this access)
• Cleric ($20) tier - changing from $15 to $20, Royal Court benefits (more of that below), 4 patreon stream subject suggestions each month access 
• Knight ($50) tier - Cleric rewards, no other changes
• Mage ($100) tier - knight rewards, name changed, no other changes
• Paladin ($200) tier - Mage rewards, name changed, new picture needed, no other changes 
• Sanctified Paladin ($300) tier- NEW TIER, same rewards as paladin but designed for overflow. In case a person really wants that patron reward picture from me. (no picture yet)
• Archangel ($500) tier - Paladin rewards, get to pick next month's transformation sequence subject. (only once every 3 months and idea given must be approved by me. I have final say in all things)  (no picture yet) 

- Court changes

The courts are my way of listing rewards so I don't take up a huge amount of text space on each reward tier. Here are the changes I have made to them

• Patron Only Section- NO CHANGES
• High Court -  Only comic PDFs I list under $5 will be handed out to the high (on the month I release the comic and the month after). No other changes
• Royal Court - New court for the cleric and up tiers, Access to the work voice chat (Through discord, Daruak not guaranteed, limitations may apply, testing this and changes may be made in the future), Free comic  PDF of all comics I release (on the month I release the comic) access to archive comic related work (comic related posts are archived after 2 months) Pin-up PSD files upon request

In conclusion

That's all the changes for now. As I have mentioned already, if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to leave them in the comments below or message me directly.

Nothing is set in stone. If further changes are needed I am open to make them and I really want to hear your feedback on all of these changes.
