New rewards for the tiers - I'm only adding, not taking away!

I'm going to trial a brand new idea and bring a few old ones back.

I want to add more to the tiers, and I think a good way of getting back in touch with you guys and getting back into the swing of things is to bring a few features back and start trialing new features.

Lets start with the first one:

I'm bringing back the second place drawings.

So remember when I would animate the most voted and draw the second most voted?
What if I did that but I actually do it once a week, like an actual artist, and I stream it along with the first round of Patreon requests?

Well that's what's going to be trialed again. But streaming weekly must mean...

More streams.

Once a week I will stream myself drawing the image that you guys voted for along with a few patreon requests.
Sometimes I will speak, sometimes it'll just be music. My throat starts to hurt after a while of talking so more often than not it'll just be music in them.

In addition, once at the end of the month I will do a Patreon-exclusive stream where I go over the flash animations I've made that month that every patron from $1 to $25 can attend. In this stream I'll just showcase the animations, some of their functions, and draw the final weeks drawings and requests.

Talking about requests...

I'm swapping the loyalty reward system for monthly requests for every tier.

It's a system that I admit not following too much... and I apologize for it. It's left quite a few people confused and I don't blame you.
So what I'm planning to do instead is start offering very simple sketch rewards to $1 patrons, lineart and more refined drawings for $5, full coloured pieces for $10, and fully coloured pieces with backgrounds for $25.
So:

• $1 requests would look like this
• $5 requests would look like this
• $10 requests would look like this
• $25 requests would look like this (or this)

Don't worry $5 patrons - your quality isn't lowering, it's still the same as it was before.
If you've already been promised a loyalty reward that will be its own separate thing and will NOT affect your request this month.

I just wanted to make clear the fact that this is all stuff I am putting on trial! I have no idea if I can offer these rewards, three animations, commissions, and everything else, but I will try my god damn best to give you guys the rewards you deserve.
