This month has been exhausting, with Anthrocon, take-home commissions and such. I've been mentally wiped out, and I haven't had the energy to work on the next set of Candy Walls pages. However, I decided to revive and complete a portfolio project, and I will be giving that away as the highlight of this month's rewards.
The portfolio is a 12-image set called 'Splatterpunk', featuring Olivia showing her uh... spunky side. It's probably the messiest thing I've drawn yet! I hope you will enjoy it. I'll post teasers soon.
Included with the rewards, you will get: the 12-image folio, including alt versions, sketches and linearts. Of course $10 and up tiers get highres files :3
Again, I'm sorry for not being able to get new Candy Walls pages done this month. I hope the Splatterpunk portfolio will make up for it, though! Candy Walls work will resume next month.
~~~ FUTURE PLANS ~~~
Streams:
I've been considering dropping Picarto for a while now, as I'm paying for their premium streaming service and it doesn't work properly half the time. Because of this, I'm going to switch to Tigerdile. They haven't given me any technical issues so far. Plus they're furry-centric, so I feel better supporting people in the furry community anyway.
I may move away from doing only private streams and towards doing multi-streams or general public streams most of the time. This is partly to get more people involved, but also because doing things like multi-streams negates the private stream pass function anyway. However, comic work will remain private, patreon-only.
PSDs:
I'm considering adding a new feature to the $30 rewards, which would be PSDs of my finished works. Would this be something people might be interested in?
Commissions:
So far I have not offered any commission work through patreon, nor preferential treatment to patreons for slots. However, because patreon has allowed me to focus on comics and projects, I have not been able to take on as many commissions as I used to. This is good because it allows me to work on my stories, but it also means people have less of a chance to get commissions from me.
I've been considering adding a higher reward tier that would offer discounted sketch commissions for a limited number of slots. I'm not entirely sure if I want to pursue this avenue, but if I did, I wonder how to go about allowing the slots to open for different people to have a shot at the tier? Otherwise I'd be concerned a select few would sit on the slots and use them every month. I want everyone to have an opportunity to grab a slot if I opened up a commission tier. Any info on how other artists do this?
That's it for now, but I may implement some of these rewards this upcoming month. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. I'm interested in your feedback. I want to make this patreon the best it can be for you. And of course, I appreciate your continued support! Thank you :3
