Month 5 Report
Added 2018-10-03 23:20:32 +0000 UTCAlright, pledges have been processed for the month of October. Pledges came in at $400! I've decided that Pop Lee X deserves a raise and that from now on, each page will cost $110. This means that this month, we only have enough for 4 pages, but I am willing to put up the money to get us to 5 pages. Artists who have as much skill, professionalism and work ethic as Pop Lee X should not go unappreciated. This month we should expect:
5 comic pages
2 pieces of concept art
1 colored character pinup
1 sketch pinup, featuring 2 characters
In September, one of our original Duchess tier patrons was forced to part ways with the project due to financial constraints. Specifically, this Duchess was behind Gael'atai, the heavily armored, masked warrior. What does this mean for Gael'atai, her fans and her potential Duchess chapter?
Once the next chapter starts winding down, voting will begin for Duchess chapters that feature a character created by Duchess tier patrons. There will be 5 options, regardless of the number of Duchess tier patrons who have pledged in the past. These 5 options will be the characters created by the Duchesses who have pledged the longest. Gael'atai's patron pledged for 4 months straight, but if a new Duchess pledges for 5 months, their chapter will replace Gael'atai's in the voting options. While I don't want to throw away a Duchess' chapter, I also need to incentivize longer term investment in order for the comic to be successful.
Luckily, we have already found a new Duchess and I'm sure you will all enjoy their new character very much. Thank you all again for your continued support- and a big thank you to those who supported us in the past, but can no longer. The comic will always be free :)
