[PLEASE READ] New Year Changes (Patreon)

Hello everyone!
The year is coming to an end and I wanted to thank you all for your support! I really appreciate how much we achieved this year and it would be impossible without you guys!
With the New Year few changes are coming, but they are for sure good news!
As you might have noticed I had a lot of struggle with delivering the illustration packs and content that you asked for. In exchange I tried to push some personal art stuff to make it up to you.

With the new year I want to change how things work on my Patreon. I’ve been overworked for a while mainly because of college duties and other projects I’m working on at the moment. With that the amount of rewards will be lower as well as the price of some of the tiers will be lowered. Each tier will get a new clearer description, to make sure you’ll have all the information you will get from it. With that, the tiers that got changed will be deleted (thus I cannot edit the price of a tier with members in it) and replaced with new ones!

The billing system also changes! You won’t be pledged on the 1st day of the month no more, rather on the day you joined the tier. It’ll make things easier for people that join by the end of the month, so they don’t pay twice in a row! The change won’t affect the other active patrons that much!

Omega Troop $2/month
No bigger changes.

The tier still works as a TIP JAR for people that want to support me but aren’t interested in pledging more to get some rewards. The tier still grants access to the Discord server and the 2% discount on commissions. To specify the amount of artworks you’ll see in this tier, they will be only the rewards and commissions month early before posting them to social media.

Beta Pack $5/month

Small changes in content.

The tier of course will include rewards from the previous tier with the change to the discount on the commissions being 7%. The $5 tier will also get content with my OCs that will be posted to Patreon early or some to Patreon only (perhaps some alts). The content includes both illustrations and mini-comics you’ve seen this year. The tier will no longer have the Patreon Exclusive access as I’m planning to make less alt versions to the art packs and it would be hard to separate them between two tiers! In exchange I am planning to make small pols once in a while to ask what would you like me to draw or choosing one of my ideas for artworks with my OCs!

Alpha Squad $10/month -> $8/month

All members of this tier need to choose a new or different tier.

Starting from this tier the price changes happen. The tier will be cheaper but won’t offer a sketch reward anymore. It still includes previous tier rewards with the discount on comms being 10% instead. This tier will also gain access to PEX illustration sets and the right to vote on those! The sets will have less alt versions previously hitting around 30 took a lot of effort and didn’t give much in general. The Patreon Exclusive sets will be done at least once every 3 months (might do an extra one in summer) starting in February! There will be a character suggestion time soon and then a poll later on!

Werewolf $15/month -> This tier no longer will be available. Please change the tier you’re pledging to.

This tier was created to connect my non-furry and furry Patreon. The other side didn’t get enough attention from me so I’m closing those tiers (Wanderer, Explorer and Werewolf) . I didn't make any bigger info on the previous tiers as there were no members in those.

Ascended $30/month -> Werewolves $20/month

All members of this tier need to choose a new or different tier.

I’m renaming the tier (Once again, I’m sorry) cause the name just suits the rest better.

This tier still has the limit of 5 patrons.

The price will be lowered due to changes in the rewarding system. The tier will no longer offer colored pieces once in two months, only the sketches. But it won’t be a monthly thing, but more like once per 2 months one Patron receives a sketch. I will make sure that everyone will get their rewards right in time so there won’t be a situation where one Patron gets their reward 3 times and the other one doesn’t. Of course it’ll depend on when you joined the tier. The advantage of it is that Alpha Squad tier no longer is in the poll for the sketch rewards. Aside from that the tier gets all the rewards from the previous tiers with the comms discount being 12%.

Moon Gods $60/month -> $40/month

All members of this tier need to choose a new or different tier.

The tier remains at the limit of 2 patrons.

Aside from lowering the price, not much changes in the tier. The reward is still a colored piece, but the Ascended tier will no longer be in the poll for the piece. The reward will be drawn once per two months so the frequency won’t be much different in that case. The tier still gets the benefits of the previous tiers with the discount being 15%.

Sincerely,
Lumarten
