ANNOUNCEMENT//Adjustment to the $2 and $5 tiers (Patreon)

Hi hi pals!  Announcement time! 

In order to make this Patreon more sustainable for myself I have realized that I need to make a slight adjustment to the $2 and $5 tiers.

📚The $5 tier is now called the STUDENT tier!📚

Starting in June the tutorials and the advice articles will be available for the $5+ tiers.

💖Pay what You Wish $2 tiers will still have all the other digital rewards (raw work files, high res art, timelapse videos, lineart, sketches, etc), but will no longer have access to the new articles and tutorials.

Even though the difference between $2 and $5 isn't all that much, I realize this might be disappointing to some folks out there and I am sorry about that.  But after a lot of thought over the past few months, I feel like this is a change I really need to make to be able to continue supporting all of this content...

The $2 pay what you wish model was implemented before I started regularly creating tutorials and articles and now that they have been a regular thing for a while, I feel that I need to be a bit more fair to myself considering the cost in time and expertise it takes to create tutorials and advice articles.  

An now a bit of emotional real-talk... (feel free to skip this if you aren't interested in a bit of inner turmoil! lol)

Honestly, I am spread quite thin, and if I can’t figure out a way to make these tutorial and article projects pay for how much of me they take to create, I don’t know If I’ll be able to continue making them.  And I want  to continue making them!  

My hope is that with this change we can keep growing and I'll eventually be able to switch over to making content for you guys here full time, which of course would mean more and higher quality art, tutorials, articles, and merch.

Apologies if this sounds too negative!  It’s not my intention, but I do want to be real and transparent with you guys.

You are the ones who have believed in me and have supported me even when I haven’t believed in myself and I am SO grateful!  Thank you!

I hope you’ll be understanding of this change and of course feel free to let me know if you have any questions!
