Content

I love making art, but I need to adapt a new Patreon business model. I’ve been trying to keep my art and commissions accessible for all but unfortunately it’s been having a REVERSE effect.

That means that, the cheaper my commissions and Patreon tiers are:

- The more hours I have to work in my IRL job to make up for the money loss

- The more commissions I’ll be taking on every month without finishing the previous batch

- The less time I have to spend drawing the commissions, meaning that they take longer to complete

Which all adds up to: Less content.

A cheaper Patreon means LESS content for both private and public members/followers. In order to fix this I’ll need to change some perks around:

$2 tier: Access to Discord & All WIPs

$5 tier: Access to Discord, Private final renders, EARLY Access to Final renders before Public posting(Commissions), Voting in content-oriented polls & All WIPs

$15-$50+ tiers: Access to Discord, Private final renders, EARLY Access to Final renders before Public posting(Commissions), Voting in content-oriented polls, All WIPs & 6 commission slots (over 6 month period, 1 every month)

This change will help me greatly, for me it is not about the money but if I can’t get enough funding to support and feed myself during college then the content flow will just get slower and slower.

I don’t wanna stop draw for y’all, but please tell me what you think about the change!

Voting stops this Sunday morning, changes will be rolled out on Sunday afternoon depending on how the results turn out!

I support the overall sort of changes you described (raise prices, decrease burden), but I can't easily tell exactly what's changing. Aren't the $15-$50 tiers already for commissions, and the lower ones have Discord/voting perks?

Final version of pics and their alt. Versions will be locked behind $5, unless it is a commission in which case the client will have to wait a week before posting publicly!
