IMPORTANT POST - Next 2 months plans + changes coming (Patreon)

Hey guys!

So I wanted to update everyone on the coming plans for the final 2 months of the year. 

I'm currently working on my Death guard for blizzcon designed by Zach fischer and this will be NOVEMBER rewards! So I'll have the booklet for this, some patterns, 3d models and a little video for this costume as next months rewards

THEN  HERES AN IMPORTANT NOTE - December I will be doing something different. I will not be making a new tutorial for december. Instead I will start working on content for january so that I can be AHEAD by a month and not have to deal with being late on rewards anymore. December will give me a chance to breath, catch up on anything outstanding an go into next year ready and organised for once.

So then what will happen on patreon in december??? Instead of me sending out a new tutorial I will send out everyone a coupon for our store, for the value of your pledge where you can use it on whatever you want! So its either going to be a $5 coupon or $10 coupon to use for whatever! So if you missed a previous tutorial, or want to get one of our pattern sets ( we will have new ones by then too) or just wanna use it to go towards a print or the calendar you can!  

We will still do a patreon photoshoot that month, so all the print tiers will still get their prints polaroids and fansigns! The character will be decided next month.  

So this is how it will work

$5 will get a $5 coupon to choose their own tutorial pack, patterns or whatever you want from the store + I will still send out a wallpaper on patreon
$10 will get a $10 coupon for the same thing + the wallpaper on patreon

Print tiers - Will get the $10 coupon for tutorials in the store + the wallpaper and prints from patreon

Polaroid and fansigns tiers will also get a $10 coupon + wallpaper+prints+polaroids and fansigns from patreon!

I hope this is  ok, It was the only way I could think of to prevent shutting down patreon for a month completely. So I wanted to let everyone know way in advance in case they aren't keen on the idea and you can opt out come december :3

THEN MORE IMPORTANT STUFF

As of next month I am going to be changing how I do my patreon rewards - Specifically the $10 tier for the video tutorials. The way I have kinda been doing the video tutorials for the last 2 years hasn't really been working for me. I want to be able to create more youtube content so I can help a lot more cosplayers, this was what I started doing 4 years ago but right now I just do not have the time :( So I've been going back and forth about potentially scrapping the $10 video tier and just doing videos for youtube but I'm not really happy with that idea either :( So I've been taking a peek around and what other creators have been offering ( like the wonderful alyson tabitha, go checkout her patreon <3) And inspired by this I will be swapping the video tier to an early access model. SO how this will work is through patreon you guys in the $10+ tiers will get early access to 4-5 months of early content. You will see the videos months before anyone else and as they are released! then after the 4 months have passed the videos will be posted to youtube so that they can benefit everyone too.

So going forward the $10 tier will be sent a folder containing all the early access videos each month and the rest of the rewards will stay the same. We will also try include more video content then like blogs and behind the scenes things and stuff to make up for this.

since we are obviously looking at changes and stuff if you guys have any feedback, or potential suggestions please let me know <3 I want to hear from you!
