IMPORTANT - June Sketch Request Changes (Patreon)

I want to give everybody notice on planned changes coming next month to the Patron, and the opportunity to leave feedback and suggestions. Your input is really important to me - in fact some of these changes are based on Patrons ideas from earlier posts.

The main aim of these is to draw back some sketch requests to leave me with more time to work on other projects, while making sure you all feel valued in your Patronage. In future, I'll also be aiming to make the sketches I draw more high quality and detailed.

I want to increase my focus on my OCs, stories and animations going forward. This will help me do that :)

STARTING FROM JUNE:

Tier 1 (Toned Tummy)

• Tier 1 will be essentially a tip jar - the only bonuses will be getting a role in the discord and access to the Patron only exclusive room.

Tier 2 (Ripped Abs)

• Tier 2 Patrons will no longer get a monthly sketch request in the way they do now.

• These will be replaced by another opportunity to get sketches. Each month I'll make a post for you to make and vote on sketch requests. Patrons can comment their ideas, and leave likes on other people's ideas. The submission with the most likes will get sketched. (I may do the top few scorers, or a couple that I particularly like as well, depending on how much free time I have.

• Additionally, Tier 2 Patrons will be eligible for priority and discounted commissions in the same way as Tier 3, however the discount will be 5% rather than 10%.

Tier 3 (Chiselled Washboard)

• This tier will now get one sketch request per month, rather than two.

• They'll also be eligible to leave submissions and vote in the sketch request vote, with the opportunity to get a bonus sketch request.

  Just to be clear - all other benefits for both tiers will remain.

In addition to that, I want to add some more bonuses for both Tier 2 and 3, such as:

• Monthly Artwork Polls - polls for a full coloured drawing.

• Discord Theme Challenge Ideas - the theme challenge on Discord will be running again, and Patrons will get to submit and vote on ideas for it.

• Suggest and vote on alternate artwork - I'd love to give some exclusive alternate artwork based on specific requests from you guys.

I'll post in more detail about these when the time comes.

I've been looking at styles that help me draw finished artwork more quickly (see my earlier Artemis picture!) and this should open up some fun opportunities in future, especially with the extra time these changes will allow me.

Let me know what you think of this - good and bad. Ideas and adjustments and recommendations are absolutely welcome.

Your guys' support means a lot to me and I hope you stick around to see what's in store!
