PATREON UPDATES (Patreon)

Hey everyone. sorry for the awkward silence here.
I admit I got overwhelmed with Kinktober and in the process i kind of dropped the ball on a lot of other things, this place included.

That being said I want to shift my focus to being a content creator here on Patreon and Subscribe star (which I'm still looking into) rather than a fulltime commission taker. I still want to take commissions mind you - just not as my main focus.
my main goal for the rest of this year is going to be clearing out my commission list, restructuring my prices (again! - I'm annoyed with the way it's laid out at current and have once more shifted and evolved the way I'm drawing.) and getting more content out for my loyal Patrons.

What to watch out for:

ALL tiers are being reformatted - including the sticker tier which all of you are currently part of. Current plans are to change and revamp all names, structures and inclusions of rewards.
Monthly thigh ups are suspended for the time being but WILL continue to be a part of rewards resuming on JANUARY 1st.
Draws for Thigh ups will always be polled the night of the 1st or once all payments have been processed and everyone can be included; Tier dependent.

Sticker Reward Info:
Beginning January First 2021 Sticker rewards will be formatted to a rule of '1-2 word description' - this will be a style of wingit I will be offering in the future. This means you can give me one or two words to describe what you want. NOTE: Stickers may still be fullbody but this will be at my desertion - I don't feel its fare for some patrons to receive a headshot while others receive a 2 character thigh up so I'd like to keep things a little more balanced in the future if I can.

Comic plans:
I currently have plans to start writing and drawing out comics in December. they will likely be colored sketches but I need to stop putting so much pressure on myself to 'be good enough'. Creating comics in any capacity has been my dream for a long time, so I'm finally taking the leap and just doing it. if its bad, well its a learning process and the next one will be better, if its good then it will only encourage me to work harder and do more for you all!
i WILL be looking for cameos for these comics and when I restructure tiers this will once more be a reward offered!


HD content:
Most of the canvases i work on for commissions are at least 3k pixels wide! I make sure to work in high res so you all can enjoy an enlarged experience. currently Patreon is the only place I upload the full res files for all my works - including their alts.
Soon I'm going to be producing more fanart packs. I know I was planning it in the past and I DID do a lot of foundation work already for my Animal Crossing Pack but I need more time to fully prep for things in general.
Starting in January 2021,I will be polling for the NEXT month's art pack, (no more of this voting at the beginning and me putting unneeded pressure on myself to finish by the end of the month.) which means that January will be seeing the release of my full Animal Crossing pack. I will be polling sometime soon to see which other characters should be included and taking suggestions in my Discord for future inclusions.

Discord:
I want to work a lot more with my discord for general Patreon announcements and talks, just to avoid having to make a post like this. If people aren't part of the discord or are just here as a support and along for the ride then I still thank you and hope you appreciate all that's too come.
I'm going to possibly make a new Server aimed directly for my Patreon as my current one is a jumbled mess and needs a lot of work - might be easier to start over than to fix what's there and works for something else.

Personal Work:
I restarted my Personal challenge and turned it into a sketching challenge - this has COMPLETELY changed the way I tackle sketching and given me a lot more refinement.
I do BASES for my commissions typically which is something I do for my sketches as well. The base ends up being a super basic pose that I can the visualize everything else over so much easier. i then do super sketchy line work overtop of it for a sketch OR I do lineart. so I diverge there on different paths, making it difficult for me to really process how to do a commission sheet that makes sense to anyone else but myself. It kind of feels like I'm a pirate writing a map to my treasure - its in a code all my own and no one seems to get it haha. I want to avoid that as much as possible so future options are really going to be slimmed down unless I'm asked for something specific.
