IMPORTANT UPDATE - Scaling Back
🕑 Added 2020-10-11 17:01:01 +0000 UTCAs you may have noticed the last 2 month I have not made any charges to your accounts as I was not happy with the lack of content that I had delivered recently.
This is entirely my fault as I've realized that delivering on the extra rewards I established such as the Poll Pieces and the higher tiers content such as Video Tutorials and Custom Sketches take far more time that expected and take time away from the core purpose of this Patreon which is the "Night of The White Bat" comic which has suffered unreasonable delays. As such and if I want to comic to continue progressing on a steady schedule I'll have to undertake the following changes:
The structure of my Patreon Tiers.
Tiers corresponding to the $1, $2, $5 minus tax, and $5 will remain unaffected so you don't have to do anything on your behalf. Early access, sketch previews, high resolutions and variant versions of art will remain as is.
Tier corresponding to $10 minus Tax, $10, $12 minus Tax and $12 will be made unavailable October 31st so if you are subscribed to these tiers please lower your pledge before then or delete it if you see it fit as there will be no more new polls, candidate submissions for polls, wallpapers, PSD files, video tutorials or custom sketches. All the legacy content that I've created for these tiers will remain as a backlog archive and to give a chance to anyone who wants to access do so provided they pledge the amount corresponding to this content.
This was not an easy choice to make and I understand if this will disappoint the patrons that pledge to these tiers but it is a decision I deem necessary to help me focus on achieve the completion of the comic and to better focus my efforts towards work that will better provide a return proportional to the effort and time invested in their creation.
I wish to thank everyone who has supported me so far and I apologize for these changes.
PS: For full disclosure purposes, I'll be taking commissions soon to help me cover expenses and if you have shown interest in the past and have contacted me inquiring about getting a commission you'll be receiving a email with details about my new rates and the time frame for when the commission window will opening in the following days.
In the meantime I'll continue work on the following pages of "Night of the White Bat" and will post preliminary sketches as soon as these are completed.

Thank you for your words and for understanding.

It's more than to just make the content, but to make content with a degree of quality you can be proud of. I get that, 100%. Just remember: Focus is important, but balance it well in making time for yourself, too.
