Visual Overhaul + 2018 Inkotber Changes!
🕑 Added 2018-08-13 23:47:04 +0000 UTCI've done a little overhaul on the visuals on my patreon. The about page has been spiffed up and the banner has changed to show off Inktober, since that's coming up soon.
What Is Inktober and why should I become a patron?
Inktober is a month long art challenge based around using inks, to create an image. It was started by Jake Parker and you can learn more about the project HERE.
For me, I do the half marathon usually (15ish days of drawing) and do it traditionally. They are all roughly 4x6" and feature my patrons' characters (FOR NO EXTRA CHARGE), with the exception of one, which i usually reserve for my own artistic freedom and expression
TLDR:
- IT'S FREE FOR $8+ PAID PATRONS.
- Since last year it was for ALL patrons ($1+) and there was, i believe, 2 more submissions than there were spots, this year, it will be $8+ Patrons that can submit their characters to their preferred prompts from late Sept, to Oct 10th.
- If there are still open spots by Oct 10th, it will get opened up to all $1+ patrons (for $10USD) AND the public ($20USD).
- There is no $8 specific tier but you can edit your pledge amount at any time if you are below $8, to get in on the Inktober content. Inktober payments will come out Sept 30th, 11:59PM Pacific time.
-----------------------------------------------------
How it works:
At the end of September, i put up the list of prompts (or the remaining prompts from the previous year) and allow my patrons to sign up their own characters for whatever prompts they feel comfortable taking part in. You can submit as many characters to as many prompts as you'd like, however please be reminded that i try to make sure each person gets -something- so i aim to only do one for each submitted patron.
Changes from last year:
Last year, by the end of October, we had, I believe, 2 more people submit than there were days available. This means that we are starting to hit the peak where I can no longer do one, guaranteed, for everyone. To combat this, this year, only $8+ patrons will be able to submit characters to prompts and only until Oct 10th. If there are still open spots by Oct 10th, it will get opened up to all $1+ patrons (for $12USD) AND the public ($20USD).
* There is no $8 specific tier but you can edit your pledge amount at any time if you are below $8, to get in on the Inktober content. Inktober payments will come out Sept 30th, 11:59PM Pacific time.
What do i get?
By becoming a patron during September, you will get access to
- the list to submit to
- high res of the piece that features your character
- a small web version for posting
- access to any progress videos before the public
- higher than web size resolution at the end of the month of ALL inktober (and regular patreon) content and
- all the other reward perks on your respective tier!
