Feedback for Adjusted Patreon Ranks and Rewards (Patreon)

Now that the story is actually over, I need to decide what can be done to entice people to keep contributing while also still making enough money to prevent finishing the story in comic form from taking like, two decades.

Because I am going to be most likely changing the buy-in price to something higher, probably like $5, all of the current pages will be released to the public, so nobody feels like they got ripped off. I think I'm also going to mass-dump the rest of my unpublished chapters as well.

Now, my goal is to be able to recruit multiple artists to help do this story. The problem is, different artists have different work loads and different pricetags and different quality. I've only found two artists willing to participate for the long term, and only one of them is currently being paid because they cost less money and are able to do more work per month. This creates a problem because there's a gap between which artists can do how much work in a month.

Say an artists wants $50 a page, and we can buy up to 5 pages a month. Another artist wants $60 a page and can do up to 3 pages a month. If we have $300 to spend, who gets the money? Do we give the leftover to the other artist and just finish a chapter really slowly? What if that extra money dries up? One artist is inevitably going to get ahead of the other, or I have to artificially throttle how much the faster artist can work. I need to maintain a consistent art style across one chapter either way.

So that's the first issue.

The second issue is that I don't know what the hell do actually give people who pay more money. What do you guys want as Patreon Rewards, potentially? I'm hesitant to do commission raffles because I often end up getting asked to do stuff that I just straight up don't like or lose interest in and the product quality suffers and I feel dirty afterwards.

Need your feedback. Price changes will go in effect before the next pay cycle.
