Tier Updates (Will be Applied in August) (Patreon)

Starting from the 1st of August, I intend to implement new tier rewards, and restructure some of the existing ones. there's still time for this to change, it's not august yet after all, but this is what I have in mind currently. All rewards appear in both their own tier, and any tier above them, even if it's not explicitly said so:

$1.50 Tier: Access to my Discord server

$5 Tier: Early Access to my finished work. Also access to polls, with at least one image per month being decided via poll. Originally, polls were restricted to a higher tier, but I've tested some polls on the $5 tier and it seems to work nicely, so I am moving it down.

$7 Tier: Access to voting in new monthly OneShot comics. Each month I will do a single-page comic, featuring around 5 panels. But the contents of these panels will be suggested, and voted on, by you guys. You will post your own suggestions for what you would like to see happen in these panels, with people able to vote on these suggestions. And essentially build your own monthly comic page as a community. These One-shot comics, as the name implies, are one-offs. They are not part of any larger comic and they do not link to each other. They are just little monthly comic pages where you can all vote on the content. Also a 5% Discount on commissions

$10 Tier: Access to the Suggestion Box, where you can post your suggestions for art you would like to see drawn, and I will pick and choose from these suggestions as inspiration for my upcoming art. These suggestions may be used in all sorts of ways. I might use them for a little quick sketch I can draw and post in a single day. I might use them for a fully coloured image. Or if I really like your idea, and you get lucky, I could even turn them into fully-fledged comic series. Also a 10% Discount on Commissions.

$15 Tier: Access to early sketches and drafts of upcoming work. Unlike the Early Access tier, which gets early access to finished pics, people on this tier will be able to see sketches and early versions of upcoming work in advance of even being posted into early-access. Also gain access to alternate versions and variations of art, when appropriate.

$25 Tier: Limited to only a maximum of 10 people. People on this tier will be able to work with me to write the scrips for long-running comics. This ranges from suggesting characters, scenarios, positions, all sorts. Working in a collaboration on full-scale comics. These comics will not necessarily be monthly in terms of when they are drawn and released, but I will try to update them regularly. The tier is limited to only 10 people to ensure everybody on the tier can have their ideas fairly listened to, and not drowned out by too many other people. Anyone on the $50 tier also gains access to this tier, even if it is maxed out at 10/10 people.

$50 Tier: Limited to only 2 people, this tier gives access to a free monthly commission. Either full colour featuring 2 people. Or alternatively, more than two people, but less than Full Colour. Your first month's commission must be worth $50 or less. This is a limitation only on the first month, and exists to prevent people from exploiting the system by signing up only for a single month to get a cheap commission, without any intention of remaining on the tier. This tier also gives a 20% Discount on any additional paid commissions.

As you can see, I have put a big emphasis on audience interaction across all tiers and levels. I really would like to build a community where everyone is getting value for their money and feels like they have a say in how things go. Obviously some people get more of a say than others, but I want everyone, no matter the level you contribute, to not feel totally left out.

If anyone has actually read all the way down to this, and has any thoughts or suggestions, or questions even, feel free to let me known in the comments. I will respond and discuss with you.
