Patreon Tier/Rewards update! (Big text ahead) (Patreon)

PATREON TIER CHANGES 
Hi! For some time I’ve been thinking about changing how some of the Tiers and rewards work. So I’ll try and explain my ideas before I make the changes effective.

Why the change? 
Well, for quite a few reasons:

A- Lately I’ve upped my pace, got a new schedule at my morning job that gives me more time to work in the evenings, and grown more confident about animation with the latest ones. So I want to keep making more of them consistently even after the training year ends, while also keep making illustrations and sketches for Tier 1s. So will also make a new system of poll rewards since not all polls have gotten the same treatment as others.

B- The system of having access only to a limited amount of past works hasn’t aged too well for me. I forgot about rolling the list forward a lot of times and doing it is hard, sometimes I doubted about counting non-poll sets as works, and found some people losing access to some of the previous works because they didn’t download them before the list changed. I want to simplify it by just leaving everything posted on Patreon and Discord permanently from the moment of the change (will reupload some of the older works, but keep the very old ones at my store)

C- Most Tiers except Tier 2 are obsolete. It's true I did plan it as the main go-to Tier, but I think that If no one is subs to my other 3 tiers, I'm doing something wrong by not offering anything worth them. As an example, Tier 4 gives people access to the latest 5 works, but because of that, there’s no reason to stay there for a second month after you join. Instead, I'll rework the rewards by offering stuff that stays relevant every new month to make people actually consider them.

NEW TIER REWARDS 

Tier 1 (2,50$): 
-Full access to all illustrations, their WIPs and sketches from now on, not only the last 2 works (Will reupload some of the older ones)
-Will no longer have the ability to vote on polls (In exchange for the permanent content access and WIPs)

Tier 2 (5,50$): 
-Ability to vote on character polls.
-Access to all animations and their WIPs, not only the last 2. (Will reupload some of the older ones)

Tier 3 (10,50$):  New voting rewards! 
-Will vote for the pose of the characters who wins the polls!
-Suggest/vote themes and characters for future polls. Might sometimes give several themes to vote from, ask for theme ideas, or ask for random popular characters suggestions to make a poll with the ones I dig the most!

Tier 4 (15$): 
-Will turn into a fully optional support role.
-Discount for commissions (will try to reopen very little slots, but more often)

NEW POLL WORKS 
This year I’ve been very focused on animation. And even though these last weeks have had a lot of sudden new content, that leaves the Tier 1s who don’t have access to animations with very little stuff for them. Even then, some polls have gotten different treatment (color, number of scenes…) and want to make them more consistent and manageable. So I plan for most polls from now on will work like this:

1- Will have Tier 3s vote for a poll theme or suggest characters for a random character poll.
 
2- The poll with 3-6 characters will be up for Tier 2s and above. The polls will have 3 winners:
1st place: Simple loop animation (available for Tier 2+)
2nd place: NSFW illustration/page (available for Tier 1+)
3rd place: NSFW sketches (available for Tier 1+)

3- Tier 3s will vote for the pose for the 1st place animation, and sometimes for the 2nd place illustration too.

This is more work for each poll, but with my new schedule and the latest works, I believe I can manage it to this amount of content and do new polls every 3-4 weeks.

To keep this consistent schedule I might not work on extra angles, cumshot scenes or dubs so often (since sometimes I get stuck in an animation for adding more than the main loop) but might eventually turn it into polls for turning previous winners into full movies by adding new angles/cumshot every few months.
 
When will these changes be effective? 
I do kind of want to test this new system and schedule in October with a spooky season poll to test if I’m able to manage the new amount of poll content before making any big promises and adjust the amount of work depending on the results.

Will draw more of my OCs 
For some time I’ve wanted to show more of my OCs (since I've got A LOT) and since the latest Maid and Mother Seras animations have had pretty good reception, I’ll sometimes do polls of them more often (1 out of 2 or 3 polls). Just letting you guys know ;)
