UPDATE/Explainy thingss!
🕑 Added 2018-08-23 20:38:34 +0000 UTC Hey guys!So any of you who are new to Patreon I want to say WELCOME-and THANK YOU for supporting! I want to be transparent about how my patreon works so that everyone knows a bit about it/me!
I try to post all at once on the 5th of a following month because patreon's payment process is unfortunately not very kind to us creators unable to do the "pay upfront" option. I tend to lose at least 500$ worth of pledges LAST minute due to false or scam accounts who leak my media by exploiting patreon's system. DUE to this I have to be mindful of everything I post because I have to assume it could get leaked. On top of that, animation being so collaborative- a lot of the work that I am managing on a regular basis involves work done/helped by other artists on my project, and without permission I wouldn't want to post someone else's work on my patreon (even if all the money does go back to the team) -if I can get more permission from the team to share more of it here, then you will be seeing a looot more Hazbin peeks, because it will give me more spoiler-free variety to pick from! So I try to limit it to just shots I animated, or designs and backgrounds I did or worked heavily on myself.
BUT I also want to try to post as much as I can DURING the month just so there's something for you guys to see! I want to be sharing more un-used audio with you guys, and other fun exclusively behind the scenes content, and deleted scenes! Once we get more production done you can expect plenty more of that!
As far as streams I have sadly had intense bouts of bad luck in my personal life, a lot of sudden life expenses for pets, or insurance, moving, ect- so I have been having to do a lot more freelance on the side (Patreon money is ONLY for project budget/project expenses) So due to this I haven't been able to finalize my streaming schedule, so to make up for it I have been trying to share alternatives so that everyone get's SOMETHING important each month! What I've been sharing are secret character designs for characters that would appear in the greater series/story!
BASICALLY, I'm doing the best I can to make sure supporting this patreon is worth it! All the money IS going toward making the project a reality, but I do know it is best to receive something when putting money forward, and I feel awful whenever I feel I fall short or am unable to give more then I can manage. I take this seriously and I value every donation endlessly, but running a project, balancing freelance, real life, AND patreon just ends up tricky to make sure everything is smooth. But I am truly SO excited for you guys to see what we have in store for Hazbin. WE are hoping to release some amazing things REAL soon, stay tuned!

We love you Vivienne WOOOOOO!!!
You go girl! We all believe in you! As long as you put your heart into it it will all work out in the end. I know this is gonna be worth it as you have millions of people out there who support you and want to make your dream into reality. I don't usually spend alot of money a month to support a project but your work deserves it since it not only appeals to me but this is something I want to fangirl over. I'm already planning to do cosplay for 2 of your characters (Alastor and Angel) and I don't care if it doesn't get limelighted as this series is definitely something to cherish for. We understand your struggles as we can relate to you (this is coming from an artist as we speak). You can do this! We got your back! :)

Take your time! I'm sure it'll come out amazing!
Don't worry to much Vivziepop, do the best that you can. I give this money each month because I have faith in this project and I really don't mind donating even if I get nothing in return, knowing in the long run it was used for a good purpose. I will continue to support Hazbin and I'm also wanting to get in the animation industry as well so I know a little bit of the struggle as well. But all in all you are a big inspiration on improving my art and animation. Don't worry I don't mind if I don't get anything in return I just do hope we get to see Hazbin and see how great it is and turn out.
Do what you need to do! Keep up the good work, but most importantly, yourself comes first!!
