Also, been talking with Cooper about this for a while and I'm gonna change the $30 tier/add a new tier. This will be something for people who REALLY want to watch the process on how the comic gets made.
First off, I'm removing the commission aspect of the $30 tier as I'm ending commissions in general for the time being. As much as it's nice to be paid to draw stuff for people, I'd prefer to work on my own things without having the fact I need to work on commissions floating in the back of my mind. Also I'm really fucking awful when it comes do doing shit on time, as you all are painfully aware, so I felt it was best not to further annoy people with that.
Anyway, Cooper and I use a program called Discord to do all our chatting in regards to making the comic. A lot of corrections are made as we work on the comic. For an example, check here: http://imgur.com/a/xwbLF (The third one with the red was Cooper trying to show me what exactly I'm doing wrong.) There's also riveting dialogue between the two of us, like this:
"Smooth out the shoulder some moreAnd tone down her trapezius"
"No idea what that is"
"Neck muscles I guess. Between the neck and shoulder"
"The line thingy?"
"That's her collar bone"
For those who want to watch the hours upon hours of back and forth banter as we make the comic, you now can! That's what the $30 tier is now going to become: "Watch as we work" tier, where people in the tier will have access to the Discord chat and can watch the magic (or trainwreck) happens!
But that won't be all. There will also be a $80 tier to participate in the chat itself and give comments, feedback, and suggestions directly as we work. I will note that we won't take EVERY suggestion, in case your suggestion is to turn all the characters into Hippos and change the setting to a zombie apocalypse on Pluto. But if we find it reasonable (gotta take place on Mars, dammit!) then we certainly will! Effectively, you'll become a producer of the comic.
The changes to the tiers won't happen immediately, as I still need to finish off the current commission work for the $30 tier, but I'm hoping to change it by next week so that for people who want to get in on that will be able to do so before the next month as you won't be able to get in until after payment goes through.
