I think its time to update patreon
Added 2015-07-25 15:01:10 +0000 UTCMy patreon is almost 3 months old, I did not expect it to be this successful.
I think its time to add more perks, Add/alter tiers and add a new goal.
One Alter to the tiers is mix up the rewards, Allowing $15+ have access to full rez colored pictures, $5+ get access to inked, monochrome and their current perk.
One goal I would like to have is adding full colored commission that will be refreshed every month so everyone can have a chance to grab a slot. They will be 3 max characters and possibly limit the spots if I reach a amount.
I will continue having a patreon weekend, but seeing more and more people signing up for it, I might mix it up a bit, maybe adding a tier that offers 2 characters, maybe a tier to get inked.
I would like to hear what my fans think, do you have any suggestions? Throw out some ideas that you would like to see.
Leave a comment on this post and I converse through out the day.
Once I get a few good ideas/suggestions, I will be changing this up in August.
And sorry Monthly pictures are taking a bit to get done. Real life has been keeping me away from the computer. But they will be done here soon.

I totally agree with you Third. Honestly after putting more thought after posting this. I would be pulling my hear out with Patreon only commissions. Whole reason I wanted to create a Patreon was to be able to do more personal work once I finally catch up on bigger older stuff. So no go on Patreon only commissions. So I will continue Patreon reward weekend and will consider a inking/flat color tier. I will diffidently Change up the $15 tier for them able to get access to everything. For the $600 Goal, the monthly picture are already going to be colored.

2015-07-28 02:56:38 +0000 UTCI pretty much agree with what ThirdAnguis has said about the full commissions. I don't think even with rotation it would be fair since it would eat alot of time up for lower tier slots. I also dont want you do become overburdened with work since your wrist has been acting up lately. If anything, maybe a guaranteed rotation via raffle for 1 character would do. Inking Tier - I'd actually like having this since it would work well with people upgrading Patreon commissions and potentially save you time on regular doodle weekends. $15+ Access Tier - Im cool with this as well. It gives people the option to still support you on a tighter budget and offers a good reward. -----------Suggestions------------ $600 Milestone Goal - Colored Flats of the monthly two character picture.

2015-07-25 18:25:50 +0000 UTCAnguis raises some good points, My only concern is your work load. I hate to see you bogged down even more, you have to try and find a balance between patreon work and non patreon work. A release tier for full rez colored pictures and an option to vote each month is ideal. As long as you rotate the top slot for comms I don't see a problem. Just try and not let 1 person hold the top spot for months at a time. Keep up the great work moon!

2015-07-25 17:17:14 +0000 UTCI'm always a little leery of "limited Patreon tiers that come with commissions". Atryl has the worst case of them -- he ONLY does commissions for the three people at his highest tier, and those slots almost never get dropped, so it's always the same three people getting commissions month after month after month. @_@ If people want to commission you they'll give you the money regardless, so long as you make yourself available to it. I prefer Patreons where the backers get a say in what's being made. Surveys and whatnot for the theme or characters of a new piece, that sort of thing. The free sketch weekends for high tier backers are nice, but usually when I see artists doing them they're MUCH less rendered than the sketches you turn out, so they can crank out a couple dozen over the course of a single stream and hit more backers that way and don't wind up topping out at three or four people in a 14 hour stream.
