Hi backers!I want to make this project the best as possible for you guys, so I wanted to run some stuff by you. Please respond with your thoughts.1. Emails - I got some feedback that this campaign is generating too many emails, so I'm going to start packing rewards together into a single post for each tier every week so you don't get your inbox hammered but you'll still get notified when I upload new stuff. I have been holding work in progress images until the following week anyways, so I might just pack them in with the current week's finals. Also, do you get notified when posts I make for tiers you can't access? They don't show me what this looks like to you guys.2. Mailing Schedule/Postcards - I'm going to start mailing out physical rewards immediately after the billing cycle. Some people dropped their pledges after receiving postcards and that's not cool. Please let me know if everything showed up okay and let me know if it met your expectation.3. Livestream - I was experimenting with Livestream in order to help get more people involved but instead of bringing in backers, I saw the numbers dip instead. This made me worry that $5 backers were getting a bad deal when it came to early access to works in progress. I'm going to be holding off on doing more until I can get something figured out. I'm considering making access to live streams a backer reward but the format is yet to be determined. One of the ideas is just streaming every minute of the work process, but at the expense of providing commentary.What changes would you like to see me make to this campaign? What are you hoping to see me do in the future?I would rather hear from you than obsess about reading into the pledges that come in or go away.Best,-Pete

1.) Emails - I was fine with what I was getting for the $5 tier. 2.) Mailings - n/a 3.) Livestream - I've enjoyed seeing your process and getting to interact during the streams when I am able. I like the idea of making the Livestreams in the current format into a backer reward.

1. I agree that sending one email with everything is much preferable-- when I get 3 at a time it is a little hard to sort through (especially since the art in the emails is always super low res- you have to visit the actual page to get a decent look). Though I do like seeing the WIP images ahead of time-- it gives reason to get excited about seeing how the final turns out, and I like hearing what you are thinking at different stages. 2. I've only been lowest tier thus far because of my personal financial limits at present, so n/a. 3. I haven't happened to catch a stream yet, but I think that having it be a reward for all backer levels makes sense-- I had assumed that is what it already was but I may have been thinking of someone else's setup.

1. As a 5$ I received some times 4 mails at a time. While it is not very annoying, though I would prefer a compiled post with all WIPs at a time and open it on the single page as an attachment. It's not your fault, it's the Patreon system after all, they should build an option for compiling recent updates in one mail (especially when we pledge many artist) ... 2. I'm at 5$ so I'm not concerned. (I would love but I've as well financial limits for the moment :S) 3. I didn't heard about your livestream. Good news ! The url is on your patreon or on your other websites ? I follow you on others websites, but I admit that I can't manage to catch every updates from every artists I follow - especially when I have lot of work :[ . I'd love to receive access to the livestream in the patreon news ! You can stream anything you like to share, it will be great ! :) Thanks for sharing your work, every WIP is lovely and the wallpapers are a great idea !

I looked into making Livestreams private for backers and it would cost $999/month to unlock those features. So, I don't think that will be happening. The last few streams were really a test of the tech, interest and my ability to talk and paint at the same time. It was a little too rough for my taste, so I've deleted them and I'm going to keep experimenting with the format. There will be videos of my painting at some point in the near future. When I get in a groove with it, I will make sure to surface that stuff on here as well as on the main website, FB, etc.

For livestream, I'm wondering if you would consider downloadable videos, for higher tiers patrons.

Peter Mohrbacher

The two most successful illustration campaigns have videos as part of their highest tier, so I'm definitely considering offering recorded video content. I'm going to research what are the best tools and format to do something like that in before I commit to doing it. This was the campaign's first week of non-growth, which has freaked me out a little but not enough to change course. The goal is to work as hard as I can on this project for all of 2015, so even if it never reaches it's ultimate goal, I will be working on it for another 11 months at least. You guys are the lifeblood of this project, so thanks for your support so far.

1. I don't mind the extra emails. Either option is fine with me. 2. I'm not an artist, just a collector, so I love the postcards. I was particularly happy with the first batch you sent out, because I've loved these paintings since I first saw them at GenCon. I'm looking forward to receiving more, so you can count on my continued support. 3. I missed the Livestream but would be interested in seeing future videos.

1. It would be great if the emails were condensed more. Perhaps 2 posts for different levels of pledge. 2. It's definitely better to give out rewards after the payments is processed. I think there were many concerns about this from other patreon users. 3. I probably won't be able to attend any livestreams, so if they were an option to watch later that would be great.
