Sneak Peek: Upcoming Merch! (Patreon)

The Vanilla Velvet Audio Patreon has reached 55 patrons! If that number stays at or above 50 after August 1st, we'll have officially reached our next patron goal. (Fair warning: those numbers may not hold; last month had a few declined memberships that tanked us at the last minute from 50 down to 41! 😬) 

The promised perks for that goal, in case you need a refresher:

🤗 COMMUNITY GOAL 🤗 : YOUTUBE MEMBERSHIPS, EMOTES, BADGES AND CHANNEL MERCH!

When I reach 50 patrons, I’ll get a set of emotes and badges to use during premieres on YouTube and offer memberships for my channel! I’ll also release some merch with my logo, persona, etc. on them!

The emotes and badges are upcoming (gotta get everything all set with the artist first!) and  so are the channel memberships, but I can at least share the merch that's on the way!

I already showed off the first design, but in case you missed it: the logo!

And now, here are the others in the series: Classic Velvet, Axe Wielding Velvet, Kaboom Velvet and Handcuff Velvet!

To start, these designs will be available as stickers (easily the most reasonably priced merch!) If they prove popular enough, they'll expand into other products as well like mugs, pillows, keychains and pins. (You have to sell a certain number of items to earn access to producing some stuff, apparently!) There are a few additional designs in the works too. Collect one, collect 'em all, sticker bomb your friends and enemies if you want!

Eventually when I can get the expanded licenses for the stock images I use in my thumbnails, I'll also make those available too. At last you can Collect-a-Waifu and keep your favorite audio characters with ya in merch form! That should be doable once we hit 175 patrons; expanded image licensing for merchandise is expensive af, my dudes.

So yeah. Pretty nifty, I think! Like I said, this stuff should launch in August, provided our numbers hold. Fingers crossed! 🤞
