Patreon tiers & reward overhaul! All infos here ✨
🕑 Added 2018-11-01 23:25:19 +0000 UTC Hello & happy November to all of you!I'd been teasing it for a few days already, but here are the changes I decided to make for my Patreon tiers!
I have two main reasons for this: 1) I want to be able to provide more exclusive content to those who so generously support me every month and 2) do that while also getting a more healthy structure into my work life. So this should be a win/win for all of us! 💕
Below I will go into detail on what's changing for each of the tiers, if you have any questions or feedback (both positive and negative), please feel free to leave a comment or send me a message :)
💎 GENERAL
- Tier names were changed to various gems! It took me so long to decide on a theme for them, initially I was going to go with different types of clouds, or maybe planets or something colour related, and in the end gemstones seemed like the perfect fit, since they're super colourful and sparkly :') and if I ever want to add another tier, there's a buttload of gems to choose from. These current ones all belong to the group of Beryll, I think?
- The images themselves, with the added flowers and sparkle and pearl chains, are also what I'm going for aesthetically with a future story I have planned. I personally enjoy visuals like these very much, so I decided to go with it :')
- My partner recently made a typo and called me "gemlin" instead of gremlin, which I thought was hilarious. XD Henceforth my supporters are now called gemlins y/n??
- I will make one public post each month, discussing the content of the prior month as well as letting you know about content goals for the upcoming month. That way you will have a better overview of what to expect the next couple of weeks and also check how the month actually went!
💎 HELIODOR - $1
Not many changes, except I won't be posting finished (high-res) art for this tier anymore, and not all sketches/WIPs will be available here either, some of them will be exclusively for the MORGANITE TIER to avoid spoilers for the main story of MUTED as well as potential bonus comics.
💎 MORGANITE - $5
- sketch PDF will be available every 2 months from now on, because I'm currently focusing more on finishing art instead of doodling/drafting without much purpose, so it seems sensible to collect the sketches I do for a longer period of time before compiling them for you. You won't get less content, it'll just be a bit more condensed instead of spread out. (it also saves me some time since I don't have to edit a bunch of files every month, so I can instead put that energy into other things for you! || next PDF is scheduled for December 2018)
- in turn, there will be an exclusive bonus comic, which I aim to update once a month if I can, but minimum once every two months, depending on the amount of pages I will be putting out for the main story! First update will be during November! :) (currently: MUTED Hogwarts AU, please feel free to send me ideas for other things/AUs!)
- We could all use some more love in our lives, so I want to draw one "couple artwork" each month, featuring Kai and Jasper of course (or some of my other characters, if the interest is there), in all their queer lovey-dovey glory, exclusively for MORGANITE+up gemlins! Occasionally I'd like it to be a tiny bit spicy for everyone who's thirsty for some very soft NSFW.
- Step-by-step is replaced by in-depth tips&tricks/ressources/tutorials for AQUAMARINE gemlins
- no changes about the early MUTED updates &the monthly request
💎 AQUAMARINE - $10
- Instead of irregularly changing PSD/CSP files in the dropbox, I will upload one comic page or artwork as PSD/CSP with all layers every month, directly attached to a post, so that it can be downloaded by everyone, no matter when they become a gemlin.
- Occasional process videos of either artwork or (bonus) comic pages, I aim for once every two months, but I'll see first if the interest is even there and how often I can manage to edit video footage!
- Download finished MUTED chapters complete as PDF files or single JPG images (will be added during November!)
- one in-depth tutorial*, including sample images and detailed descriptions every 3 months (can turn into every 2 months when a next goal is reached), topics will be chosen by you! (first one is scheduled for December 2018)
*I call it tutorial, but, really, I'm 90% self-taught so it'll mostly be explanations on how I personally approach different things and any tips and tricks I might have learned over the years!
💎 EMERALD - $20
- 10% off on all orders will be available immediately after pledging, since my shop is closed most of the time it just doesn't make sense to limit this anymore
- changed the minimum supporting time to be eligible for the free sketch from 4 to 5 months!
I have more rewards planned for when we reach the next goal/s, but for now this is all I can manage!
Thank you for reading, I hope this all makes sense to you! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask and of course please feel free to adjust your pledges if necessary!
Speaking of pledges, a quick PSA: please check that your payments for the last month are going through because over the last couple of months there have been a lot pledges that kept getting denied for weeks, which means you won't be able to see any of the new content that's being posted!)
