New Milestone Ideas? (Looking for suggestions!)
Added 2018-11-21 08:54:46 +0000 UTCHey, guys! Your support has been insane lately. Thank you all so much for everything. The channel is able to grow naturally and improve at a steady rate thanks to you guys. Because we passed the $300 milestone, I'll be able to send more songs out (old and new) for mixing and mastering, which obviously leads to better sound quality overall.
That being said: The other milestones aren't quite as thought out as the previous ones and I would like to get rid of some of them. So while I'm brainstorming, I also wanted to ask you guys. What would you like to see for a milestone? I try to make the milestones something that both Patrons and average viewers can enjoy, but Patron-only suggestions are fine as well. Let me know!

Oh apologies, buddy! I seemed to have missed this one. There is merch (shop.spreadshirt.com/shadycicada)! But following up with an idea given by someone above, I could afford to have graphic designers make new art/designs for the channel, music cover art, merch, etc!

2018-12-01 04:59:16 +0000 UTCDepending on what you'd like, there's a lot you could do. The comics could be like renders of silly ideas you have, teasers for your game idea, or the Shady Cicada anime we've been throwing together. If you wanted to go with larger compositions, you could have an artist render like screens from a fight or fun event, whatever you please so long as you can effectively describe it. If you play your cards right, you can get sweet imagery with proceeds from Patreon to better sell yourself while giving back to everybody in a small way (also, I'm sure a lot of the guys would love having Shady Cicada anime nonsense immortalized in a shareable image). Assuming the link to my folder works, I have examples from a few different artists; the pieces from Vastel are full compositions of scenes, the pieces from Liese are short comics and a fun graphic, and the pieces from Demi are emblem restorations I requested. Now, let's see if Patreon will allow a link: <a href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=17ZvSh23eIopygNndf18OFVCamPJ0kovf" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://drive.google.com/open?id=17ZvSh23eIopygNndf18OFVCamPJ0kovf</a>

2018-11-26 16:02:33 +0000 UTCMy apologies, buddy. Could I get an example of the comic pages? I'm guessing that the commissioned art could be used to make the channel look a lot better and give it more character (along with merch-related things)

2018-11-26 10:45:49 +0000 UTCA thought I've had for additional milestones for a while would be commissioning comic pages or other art, and you could slowly hike up the scale of the request at larger milestones. Food for thought.
