Potential changes for 2023 + Comics
Added 2023-01-12 23:10:59 +0000 UTCHey all,
I just want a quick chat with you all as we settle into the new year. I took a lot of time on the holidays thinking about how I wanted to grow this patreon and to continue to make the content I want to create whilst providing a service that you will enjoy.
The main thing I want to continue working on is drawing the characters that matter to me and providing fun, spicy and story-filled illustrations for you all! I think the best way to do that is through comics!
However, they take a lot of work and time. That makes it slightly challenging for production and currently doesn't fit the current tier system I have.
Therefore, I am considering making some changes with the tiers I have. I already have three, I don't particularly want a fourth but I need comics to almost get a dedicated spot. I want to know what you all think but I am potentially going to make the 'the client' tier which is dedicated to commissions into an upgraded tier that provides both the option to commission me as well as getting access to long format comics.
The single page content and spicy illustrations would still be on the same tier as I am currently doing it but any two-page or more comic pages would go onto this new tier and would stay there until that comic is done (afterwards I'd eventually make that content available on twitter).
Some of you might ask - why not put the comics on the same tier as the rest of the art and I really would but it takes a lot of effort to make comics and so I need to get more funding to be able to commit to comics full time!
I like the sound of these changes and it is most likely going to happen next month but I want your thoughts and opinions!
-
tl;dr - I want to modify the commission (client) tier into an upgraded tier that both provides an opportunity to commission me as well as a tier for longer comics!

I really enjoy your style of art and growing your portfolio with short story comics is likely the next step. Adding a tier would be welcome, and expand of characters stories

2023-01-13 13:49:25 +0000 UTCThis makes sense, more effort/work from you + if your future full time ambition. Only question is: how does it work for people who already paid a Patreon yearly membership in one tier, to then be upgraded to this new tier?

2023-01-13 12:44:38 +0000 UTCThere will be plenty

2023-01-13 10:42:24 +0000 UTCThats a great idea! Some comics might be super short but having a preview or the first page could be a great way to show what will be available :)

2023-01-13 00:37:32 +0000 UTCI think this makes a lot of sense and fully support it! Perhaps the only suggestion I can think of is maybe posting the first page or handful of panels of a comic so that other tiers can see what they’re missing, etc. Otherwise, I’m incredibly excited to see your future work!

2023-01-12 23:31:46 +0000 UTCI would GLADLY switch to client tier. I think that’s more than fair and you have to do what’s right for you and your content

2023-01-12 23:23:50 +0000 UTCI would absolutely support this change! I'm currently supporting at the Collection tier, but if comics were added to the Commission tier, then I would absolutely upgrade my support to that tier in order to get the comics (because they are absolutely worth the extra monthly cost to me).

2023-01-12 23:18:04 +0000 UTCI think that’s fair to put mutual-page comics that take more time to create in a higher tier — I’d def be willing to upgrade to see them
