Considering some changes
Added 2017-05-08 05:44:45 +0000 UTCI've been thinking, I may have to change the way I do Lewd of the Month. It's fairly time expensive, and while I love doing them, it's not a commission. It's just a bonus, and something for all patrons to participate in and enjoy, whether they pledged $1 or $40.
I'm not sure what to do, but it's a commitment that takes away some time from the comic and my other work.
One idea I had was to replace Lewd of the Month with a Choose Your Own Adventure style black and white lewd comic, so basically you still vote on what you want to happen, but it's less work for me. The more we get used to that format, I may even update that more regularly than once a month, so you guys can get more content.
I may have to change how I do the rewards for the different tiers too. I've been generous in adding backgrounds and such when not asked, or allowing more than one character, so I'm thinking perhaps to change it to "one character, no backgrounds", to save time.
I can perhaps introduce higher reward tiers if someone would like to have backgrounds, or extra characters.
As always, I don't believe in a paywall because (a) Someone always leaks exclusive content (b) I want everyone to see my art!
These proposed changes are all to make the comic come out more regularly, and hopefully raise the number of supporters.
So please let me know what you think.

Hmm, you think higher than my regular commission rates? What $40 tier is getting is basically a $70 commission + sneak peeks, and voting. I'll think about it. Will post more of my thoughts soon. I don't want to suddenly go nuts with the prices and changing rewards, and leave people feeling cheated.

Backgrounds/more than one character would depend on tier. I'm not sure if you're doing them roughly equivalent to your commission rates and I also don't know if having the tier rewards be priced higher or lower than the equivalent commission rates would be better (I'm thinking higher since tiers also include other perks).
