Hi folks, hope your week is getting off to a good start.

I'm considering making some changes to my tiers and rewards, as I've started to realise how much work goes into producing a piece of concept art and map regularly that meets my own expectations in quality.

Raising the base prices of the tiers allows me to spend a little more time on each map and concept, avoiding the pressure to churn them out. As part of this, while I will always create a night time version of the base map, I'll only be creating night time variations of the alternative themes and biomes if they add something interesting. 

I would like this patreon to be more than a map patreon. My goal is to build a couple of my different personal IPs and stories while taking you along for the ride. Creating maps while doing this is a great way to get people involved in the world beyond the passive absorption of art or text. I have plans for the future involving characters, creatures and vehicles etc, but that will come if I can manage to make patreon a larger slice of my income through releasing environment pieces.

Currently planned tier changes, which may still change:

WOOD - $3

  • Immersive concept art for each design
  • High resolution RPG maps with and without grids
  • Night and day versions of original map
  • Two alternate map versions [theme/time of day/weather/biome]

STONE - $5 

  • All previous rewards
  • Two more alternate versions of each map
  • Sketches, works in progress and other insights into my design process
  • Patron exclusive polls to help me decide on which map to make next

METAL - $10

  • All previous rewards
  • All alternate versions of each map, at least two more

GLASS - $20

  • All previous rewards
  • My thanks for the extra generosity

I'd love to know your thoughts on the above changes, and if there are any other sorts of rewards you would be interested in. If there are any rewards that you find don't add any value, would be good to know about too. Keeping things clear and concise is good, and removing any useless rewards helps with that. 

Possible future rewards:

  • Naming rights to help me name characters and locations in my worlds
  • Exclusive discord roles that come with priority voting or map requests
  • Characters, creatures and items related to the environment design
  • Tutorials
  • Timelapses of the map and concept art creation process
  • Discounts for prints
  • Map assets to create you own maps that will match my others style wise
  • Exclusive prints
  • Printer friendly linework versions of each base map

Also, would anybody be interested if I set up a discord?

Thanks,
Mark
