March changes incoming! (Patreon)

Hello everyone!

Starting from March 1st there will be some major changes!

1) Billing will change from "per creation" to "monthly"

2) Charge upfront will be enabled  (more info)

3) New tiers will be introduced, along with new features:

- 1$ tier, a simple tip jar

- 3$ tier, access to high resolution pictures one month before the low resolution public release

- 5$ tier, high resolution pictures, exclusive Patreon only sketches and polls

4) Each patron will be able to request a free sketch of their choice after pledging a total of 50$

5) The number of monthly pictures will increase as I get more patrons (starting from 1 colored picture every month)

There are various reasons for this change.

The main reason is the high number of people taking content without paying, by deleting their pledge before the monthly billing, which is very disrespectful towards all paying patrons.

The "per creation" billing mode is also unfair because even people who only pay for a single picture a month (setting the max monthly pledge to 1$) are able to see all other pictures as well.

This new system will also work as incentive for myself to produce more art, as I work best with a set deadline.

Last but not least, I also wanted to give more rewards to my patrons, who I felt didn't receive enough for their support.

As February will be a month of transition, no full colored pictures will be released this month, but I will instead post some free Patreon exclusive sketches in the next weeks, so stay tuned not to miss them (and feel free to send me suggestions on what to draw)!

What do you think? Feel free to let me know your opinions on the matter :)
