Now that I'm done with Underburbs #18, I'd like to add more tiers. I want to start small, because I'm still working 40 hours a week on top of doing this art stuff. I think if I start adding tiers, I may go down to five days a week for the Daily Doodles. But there would be a lot more finished work in its place. What would you like to see? I'm just throwing stuff out here, so leave comments if you have any other ideas, or what you think a fair rate/time frame would be.

I'm good for what ever you do.

Gonna go ham right off the bat and propose introducing a tier with commissions. Considering you have little time for art to begin with, it'd obviously be something in the upper range of prices. I, for one, wouldn't mind dropping a couple hundred $$ to get something from you.

I'd rather the tiers exist for more regular things. Something I can keep to a timetable. Commissions can always be handled on my DeviantArt or just email.

Weekly (Artist's Choice) AML Entries, Bi-Weekly (Patron's Choice) AML Entries, Monthly comic pages/sequences of presently indeterminate substance, all good ideas for content. I suspect you may be thinking about this all from the wrong perspective however, considering you're talking about <b>tiers</b>. A better way to go about this would be to put these into Goals, maybe select one or two personal or fan favorite ideas as freebies to help your patron start its growth. For reward tiers, immediacy or interactivity would be the best route to take, if you're going to start working on patron-funded comics/sequences/etc, it'd be best to release them all to every pledge but lock off the voting and other bonus content through reward tiers. In that same vein, I might recommend cooking up different concepts for comics/sequences and allowing voting on that as well. Either way though I wouldn't recommend any perpetually exclusive content, most successful patreon-funded artists have a substantial public footprint as well, and be it through high-profile public releases, timed exclusivity, high-resolution images, or bonus content, it's usually best to do as much as possible to entice the non-members into joining. Hopefully this has been mostly intelligible, I'm slightly out of order at the moment.
