Roadmap and changes coming from August
🕑 Added 2021-07-18 11:16:16 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
As many of you know I have been contemplating changes for Across the Realms to better suit everyone's needs and preferences - including my own. After having experienced 4 full months on Patreon I can now tell the type of changes that need to take place, so here they are.
Starting from the 1st of August, the tiers are going to get a complete overhaul in both price and rewards.
- The monthly release will have fewer minis focused on a tighter theme. This will allow me to do more interesting miniatures and fewer "filler" ones as I will be able to spend more time on each individual one. The price will drop to €5 (approximately $6 USD) for the Adventurer tier. The MMF discount will drop to 30%
- The Scholar tier will become the early bird tier at €4 per month (approximately $4.50 USD) and will be available for the first 100 patrons as is tradition. The MMF discount will be the same of course.
- The Trader tier will drop to €13 (approximately $15 USD) and will grant the same benefits that it grants now.
- The welcome package will stay as is.
- The community designed mini will stay as is.
- The loyalty reward program will stay as is.
- Beginning from August, I am going to try to connect with you more and discuss future releases with you. A poll will take place regularly to decide releases one or two months down the road. I'd rather I sculpt miniatures that you want to see rather than give you the ones from my adventures. After all, you might not be up for hunting space dinosaurs.
Aside from those immediate changes, a kickstarter is planned further down the road for Q4 2021 or Q1 2022. The kickstarter will revolve around a warhammer 40k inspired human army theme with a pinup spin. The 3d printable miniatures offered in that kickstarter will be available for sale through our Trader tier licensing so that will be a nice boost for our trader tier patrons.
The new tier will be made available soon and I encourage everyone who wishes to keep supporting Across the Realms to make the swtich before August so that you do not get charged on the old pricing. If you do please let me know and I will give you the appropriate refund. The old tiers will become unavailable from August 1st.
With that out of the way, the August release will be themed around the man-eating minotaurs of Threskel. There will be a total of 7 minotaurs (2 of which are showcased above) as well as two terrain pieces. The release will naturally include the community designed miniature, for which you can pitch your input here . We are currently sitting on a fire genasi warlock, an artificer tortle and a Merregon .
Thats it for now, I hope the imminent changes are to your liking and looking forward to hearing your tkes on them!

I love the Minotaurs!!! Keep them coming! In my Fantasy RPG I run Taurens (WoW Minotaur) as a playable race and I love that you are making mini's for them. Good ones are hard to find.
