In future
🕑 Added 2021-01-15 16:32:16 +0000 UTCI want to mention some things, and what I want my direction to be this year. This will be the changes for 2021.
So firstly, Patreon changes, currency changes of USD to AUD, and the fee changes from patreon and paypal I basically don't get much of the $10 even for a sketch compared to before, it gets cut into quite a bit. It can be difficult especially when I make myself too scared to not do full bodies for so cheap. It's just unsustainable for me to do a lot of work for what ends up being about $6-7 per sketch. Because of this I find myself with too much of a queue of these each month, and I feel like I didn't expect anyone to kinda even want art from me, so I set the prices very low and told myself to always do lots of work for it, but because of that I found that I just haven't gotten much else done, and each month it's harder and harder to get the sketches completed in time.
Basically, for February onward I will be making the following changes:
Removal of current 5, 10 and 20 tiers. This will be replaced with a very simple $15 tier, which will include a bust sketch each month, spot in discord, and a big thanks from me for sticking by.
Introduction of a $2 tier, this will be the base amount for invite to the discord server, access to polls for games or art you'd like to see me do, as well as some other new things I am working out.
I'll also be keeping a thank you list which I plan to place at the end of future YouTube videos, and eventually an ending screen on twitch also thanking this tier, and the $15 tier.
$35 will stay available, but I will be having to occasionally recycle sticker designs and prints that are included, at least until more people get it. As it's been tough also to design a unique sticker and have one full body each month available to print. Especially when it's only been 1-3 people in the tier so it ends up being a bit difficult. The sketches and letter will always be unique ad done by hand each time.
Lastly I will introduce a new high tier. $100 tier, basically a super support tier, it will give the same bust sketch from $15 tier, plus a special role in discord, personal shoutout whenever you are in livestream chat, and the ability to chose 1 game for me to play each month, which I will guarantee to play at least for 1 hour, live. You will basically be the sponsor of a stream! (Game must be under $100, and safe for streaming) It's unlikely anyone will go for this tier for some time, but it's more there for future if anyone ever does decide to as I get more into content creation.
I'm hoping making these changes, I will not only be able to open full commissions again, so you guys can get those, but produce way more content, do free art streams again, giveaways and lots more stuff that will just be a little less stress.
Thank you so much for staying by, these changes will be implemented on about the 25th.
