Updates and 2020 (Patreon)

Good morning, guys! I didn’t realize that this post failed to post due to an error so I apologize for the delay. With a new desk and the house all together, I’m happy to say I’m finally back to the Alcove and preparing to make 2020 a very big year for my art. I’ve got a lot to unpack and questions to ask you all, so let’s jump right in!

The ZPD: Into the Storyboard

I got a fancy new program called Storyboard Pro for my actual computer and have started the boards on a gift we wanna give to everyone this winter! It’s so fun to see the script, drawings, and voices all come together Iike this and I’m excited to share it with you! I’m not sure if we want to share this on Patreon, but I’ll give you guys this suuuuper short snippet of what’s happening, sans audio and dialogue, until I check with the team!. Check the attachment below (and if it doesn’t work, let’s me know in the comments)!

Leaving Patreon? Or A Big Revamp?

I need your help in making this decision. I’ve thought it over for months to how I haven’t been able to deliver this year the way I wanted to. Whether it was the injury, the big move, the death, the second move, or the job change it really felt like I couldn’t catch a heccin break this year and I hate that it affected my ability to give back to you all. Despite the above, some of you have been sticking around supporting me and believing me and I just... I’m so appreciative of that. I feel like I let you all down though.

So I’m opening the floor for discussion. I’m considering terminating this account and switching to Ko-fi. Or, alternatively, making a few changes. But I also want to know what YOU want to see me post or even what you were hoping to see here. I want to know how to serve you all!

 The major change  dropping the multi-tier system and just sticking to one $5 tier that give you access to everything: storyboards, sketches, priority for commissions (when open), monthly events, etc. I know some are pledging more than that now, so I really want your opinion on this! These changes would be effective Jan 1st, 2020.

I‘m really anxious to her from you all and can’t wait to discuss this and hear your opinions. I’m really serious when I say I wanna makes 2020 an awesome year and part of that isn’t knowing whether to revamp Patreon or put the pony to sleep. More art coming this month! Love you guys!
