Important Patreon Update (PLEASE READ):
🕑 Added 2024-04-30 02:22:07 +0000 UTCHey all! I really can't thank you enough for supporting me with this initial experimentation phase of Patreon. I've REALLY enjoyed it so far, and I want to take this Patreon stuff further. Grad school will create a financial squeeze, and having some extra income to rely on will be invaluable.
Because of that, I will need to overhaul this Patreon in the coming days. However, I wanted to alert you all first. You guys are very important to me and I want to be as transparent as possible.
I want to stress first that nothing will look much different on your end. Everything you've had access to before, you will still have access to. Nothing already posted will be put behind a higher tier. The tier costs will stay the same, although labeled differently. Here is the current plan I have, but I'm open to changes to it:
$3 Tier-
Early access to finished comic pages (2 pages early)
Early access to colored/finished images
The ability to participate in polls
$5 Tier-
Everything that's included in the $3 tier.
Comic sketches
Concept art for future comics
Access to Patreon-exclusive sketches and doodles
$10 Tier
Everything that's included in the $3 + $5 tiers.
Can make suggestions for the polls.
Poll votes count double.
15% off commissions when I open.
For clarity, here is what I consider a sketch/doodle: https://www.patreon.com/posts/lifted-103071254
And this would count as a finished/colored piece: https://www.patreon.com/posts/display-103250204
I will wait a little longer before implementing these changes and making a public announcement. I want to be 2 pages ahead on the comic before I make these changes, and maybe post another image like the one I did last night. I'm almost done with page 39 and I don't think page 40 will take long either. You should see those posted here in the coming days.
If this information changes your mind about what tier of patron you want to be or makes you rethink subscribing to my Patreon in the first place, I understand and please make whatever decision you feel is right for you.
Your opinions as my patrons are invaluable to me. So I want to ask you all what you think of this. Are there any changes to my plan that you'd make? Is there anything I should add? Do you have any questions? Please let me know in the comments, I'd love to discuss with you all.
Also, I need a new name for my tiers. It can't be anything explicit, unfortunately. I was thinking something like "Otter enjoyer, Otter lover, and Otter FANATIC" as the 3, 5, and 10 dollar tiers respectively. Thoughts?
