New Goal

I have set myself a new goal for my Patreon.

It's taken me a long time to figure out how I want to do things, and I am still learning - but I think I have gotten through all my.. bad ideas. The ones that are either just bad, or they're just a little out of reach for me to comfortably keep up with.

I want to get my story project here enough support that I can hire someone (preferably someone I already know) to help me build a website for Tales of Metapha.

Commission Crunch Time

Hey everybody.

Everyone here is probably pretty familiar with my 'Crunch weeks' on twitter.

Well, it's kinda that time again but I am starting to approach it a little differently, allowing myself a lot more breathing room in the process.

Okay so here's what's going on.

I am going to be approaching my 'crunch' weeks as my 'crunch time' instead moving forward. And rather than being a dumbass and making it a literal week - I'm starting this time even earlier - to make sur...

Format Changes and how they will effect Rewards

Following my previous post—with the format change that is coming to Tales of Metapha - so will the rewards be changed. Because there won’t be full ‘pages’ and will instead be post by post, the ‘supported by’ credits are going to be slightly changed. Supported by credits will still be listed but will be listed with each week’s final post (Friday posts)

The idea being that rather than supporting ‘pages’, the support credit is going towards the entire week.

Some...

The Tales are changing once again.. But for the last time.

Wow that’s cryptic huh? What does that mean. Well down everyone I have a lot to tell you.

Now, some of you might roll your eyes at what I am about to say but all of this is true, so bear with me.

For the last 4 years I’ve been living in a depression “mire.” I let my depression get the better of me and I wasn’t able to recover by myself. My depression manifested as junk, trash, and just a general poor living condition. I unintentionally trapped myself, because I was deter...

News Update 8-10-2019

Hello everyone! I have some big news for a couple of things coming up.

The first is, because of the monochromatic shift for the comic, I am going to try my best to just put it out weekly rather than this slow roll I’ve got going on.

The main reason to this is because.. well I have gotten a shit ton of inspiration from.. myself?
Lemme explain:

Basically, up until this point I have had a lot of the main plot of the story figured out, but not much as far as sequencing goes...

Quick Stream Announcement!!

I'm making some changes with my stream now that I have learned how to sparkle it up a bit.

Starting today, during my streams, if you are a patron you name will appear on stream as part of a 'Supporters' slideshow list.

Your name will appear as it does on Patreon (unless you tell me otherwise).

Your name will also appear with your support level emblem

You can opt out of this supporters display if you wish, simply reply to this post saying what you are okay or not okay w...

Introducing the Lorekeeper Tier

Introducing the Lorekeeper Tier!

As I mentioned earlier this week, a new reward tier is going live, right now!

The Lorekeeper tier is going to be quite an experiment; both for me and any supporter who decides to join me in this experience.

I love D&D, and I want to make a little bit more of a wave for myself in the VTT community. At least in some way. I have limited time to do a weekly game, and I know many people who want to play a game with me, either as a player or as...

Weekly Update (5/27/2019)

Hello everyone, sorry for my lack of updates. I’m getting some help to keep myself on a strict (but fairly reasonable) work schedule.

As some of you may know, I have recently been doing most of my work on my iPad to better get the hang of drawing on there. So far it’s been going pretty alright, although slow.

So what’s New?

I am gonna change up the whole voting cycle thing once again. I know, I can’t seem to stick to an idea for when it comes to images. The thing is;...

Quickie Update

Heya Patrons, sorry for the late update on this - my little time away vacation kind of got unexpectedly extended. And I'm thankful. The time was very much needed.

So I only just got back home at about 2:32 in the morning. I've been taking most of today to just rest from the long drive. I have some comic projects I am going to be working on and finishing over the weekend. Mostly Metapha pages, and the Sahvra special.

Stream schedule for the next week will be announced tomorrow on F...

Goals Updated - Growth Plan

To start off Patrons this is an update and a clarification on some updates I made on social yesterday.

First, I while I was accepted to the Coffee Cats zine project I am choosing to step down and not participate. I am not doing this because someone else has tried to make me quit - I had purely made this decision on my own after contemplating it all day yesterday.

The current Metapha page is still in the works, I'm currently coloring it and just need to add the simple backgrounds a...

New Things Coming

We're gonna just cut to the chase everyone:

This month I am going to be bringing a lot of big revisions to my Patreon, some of these are things I talked about back in .. October .. I think.

First, the tiers are getting a major overhaul. Some new tiers will be coming; none will be going but some of the rewards will be changing. They're also going to be re-labelled.

The rewards will be changing this way:

$1 Tier: Access to Tales of Metapha pages as they are completed, co...

Upcoming Changes

Heya Patrons!

I have some changes in the works that will be coming midway thru October. I know. More changes, I keep changing things up every few months.

I want to try and get myself on a manageable schedule again with the Comic as well as other exclusive Patreon pieces.

The main changes are as follows: The higher tiers are being done away with. I have had folks banking time (at least as far as I know) and I unfortunately need that to stop. Mostly because I feel it as a sort of lo...

BLFC Next Week / Upcoming Changes

Howdy howdy Patrons!

BLFC weekend is coming up next week, and with that one of my biggest challenges I've ever faced; vending at convention!

I've spent the last month mostly dreading this, but as the event is rounding the corner I've been finding myself more and more excited. I'm pumped for this, both because I'm ready to just get into the experience, and.. get back to my regular work.

I have a lot to catch up on still; and once this weekend has passed the stress of this looming ch...

Quickie Update

Hey there Patrons just a quick little message before the weekend; With a convention happening this weekend (Midwest Furfest) and my internet still being down until tomorrow afternoon, which by then I'll already be traveling; the November doodles post will be posted once I return. Thank you all for your patience 💋🌱 I wish you all a fantastic weekend! And if you're at the con, come find me - I'll be giving away doodles~

Progress Update

Now for a follow-up post. Most sincerest apologies to everyone waiting on the September Patron's Choice, and personalized rewards.

The workload is still a bit heavy, however I'm pretty confident that I'll be all caught up at the end of this month. 

I will get you all taken care of by then.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have an all-nighter to try and power through after messing up my sleep schedule. Again 😓

Thank you everyone for understanding~

~Suzi 💋🌱

Chibi Reward - Zekaire

Colored Chibi sketch for Zekaire. Thank you so much for your support~

Metapha Comic & the doodle dumps

The title for this announcement post probably says more about the plan  than I really need to say. But hey I'll still lay it all out.

I'm finally at that comfortable stage I think with how I want the comic to look, so now I'm ready to start. In order for me to really dive into this side project, something else kind of has to go. This means the doodle dumps will be going.

However, nothing is really being lost. Since most of the time I'm drawing Metapha related doodles anyway, the con...

New Rewards!

Hey Patrons and everyone else as well! 

The new rewards are now live, additionally the Good Bean & Sprout tiers have new reward images because the others looked kinda b l e h 😖

I would like to advise & remind people however, that because of the charge-up front payment method on patreon, and with me still pecking away at my commission queue - that if you plan on updating your pledge to one of these new upper tiers that that reward will have to be gotten to next month (Augu...

New Rewards Coming!

Howdy Patrons, and anyone else checking this out publically.

New Rewards are coming this week. With how my workload is looking at the moment, we're looking at a Saturday or Sunday update for these.

I still need to make a graphic for each but I finally figured out what I want to add and I think they'll be pretty good offers.

✨ Gold Bean ($10) & Gold Sprout ($20) Sponsors ✨

These are going to be limited spaces at 10 spaces each; both will come with all ...

Delays, delays, delays

Howdy Patrons, just a little update on some things.

The first that I am pretty bummed to mention is that the Welcome to Metapha posts aren't going to be a thing just yet. Not this month anyway.

Unfortunately I'm pretty full up on off-site (non patreon) commissions that  call for my attention first. But that doesn't mean I'm not working on things that are intended for Patreon.

By how things are going right now, I'll be able to bring comic related content in next month; most lik...

June 2017 Updates & Projects

Heya there patrons~

June is here, which means there will be some new features coming partway through the month.

The first being will be the patron-only polls, where supporters like yourselves will be able to influence the direction some of side projects go. Some will be one offs, the others will be month-to-month themes.

Additionally, I have some big news; At the end of the month - project updates on Welcome to Metapha will be returning. That's right! It's that com...

'Just the Tip Jar'

Hello everyone!

I needed to make this update for my current patrons. For the time being this page will act as a 'tip jar' while I work on my project backlog.

Until I am able to fully relaunch and add more lucrative rewards, I have to he realistic with myself and do what I am able.

There will be Work-In-Progress posts for these projects for those who wish to continue and offer support.

Thank you so much to every one of you 💕
