Upcoming Change for 2022 (Patreon)

Due to PayPal policy change in my country make it I can't use PayPal anymore
so here what's gonna change

1. Gumroad

Gumroad use only PayPal for payout and It's not support my country for direct deposit

My Gumroad page will be close on 14 January 2022, You can redownload any purchased you made but you can't buy from that site anymore after that day. 

Here is a 35% discount code for all item until close day

"totallywortit35" (no " ")

Patreon support another payment beside PayPal so it will not get effect at all.

2. Tier/Reward Content Change

Since the beginning I try to do my best on all animation regardless of A or B animation but after a while I think is not doing well in term of putting animation out fast enough (or in time) because there's so much thing that I need to do for a single animation compare to when I start do animation on SFM 6 years ago

From just use model to animate to everything else (extract model - rigging - model editing - texture paint - materials - environment building - lighting - simulation and also animate) 

that take ton of time to prepare for single animation. and it just so stressful to keep it all working. 

From beginning I don't have restriction on A or B animation like B animation need to be better (like longer or have cum version) but that make the target 2 week per animation not feasible since it actually take like 3-4 week per animation now. 

so A Animation on Tier 2 will be more simpler style, I try to keep this shorter than 12 second for faster render time.

B animation on Tier 3 are still the same like before, Usually it will be longer than 16 second with transition to other position or climax depends on context of animation

Also Tier 3 price will change from 10 to 12 USD only for new patron, Existing patron use the same price until they cancel or change a pledge.

Tier 1 will have no change at all

Tier 2 and 3 still get Bonus Animation If I make it that month.

Tier 3 price change start using on 1 January 2022

Additionally, If I have bigger project that I want to make, I will notify you that you will get charge on multiple month for single bigger project.

3. New Tier 

- All Access Tier - 29 USD 

Start on January 2022, Likely to replace Gumroad. Require Gmail Account.

Same Reward as Tier 3 but with Access to all work in high resolution (Outside Legacy Archive)

You can change to other Tier (or cancel) after pledge and keep Access for 1 Month.

- Custom Commission Tier - ??? USD

This is a method I will use to accept commission later next year

Normally It will hidden, but finish work will also post on here. (not reward)

Price will depends on commission itself

More detail are coming later when I actually ready to open for commission. (I expect to later half of next year or until I clear current commission)

4. Pausing Patreon

People that pledge in this month will get January 2022 Reward

People that pledge annually will get extend 1 month of membership automatically by Patreon

Next charge is 1 February 2022 for January Reward
