Hi guys! You might be noticing everything moving around on my patreon page these last few days. Don't get too comfortable just yet because I'm still trying to figure out how to move forward. Maybe you can help me decide what new tiers to offer. Do you mind doing another poll? 

Perfect! Here we go!

Question: What NEW tiers and rewards would you like to see for 2018?

Manuel Succo

Your videos are always a real tread. It really refreshes the connection to you. Like a video call with a distant relative or friend. Even if it‘s just one way and you don’t see me/us.

Manuel, Thanks man. So the monthly process video or tutorial video is kinda what you are looking for? I have always hesitated to make Patron only videos in the past but I think it's a big part of what I am missing on patreon. So maybe 2018 will be the year of patron-only tutorials. I just want to make sure enough people will want it before I put all the work into it. It would probably be a $10-$20 tier and I'm not sure if anyone would value it that much.

I think it's always a goal as an artist to see your work stand on it's own - as it's own brand. However, here on Patreon I am confident that you are the brand and learning from what you have to share is what I'm signed up for. I hope this helps when deciding what to offer moving forward. Regardless, I'm a fan.

Hey Rob! Thanks for signing up. :) Looks like I have a new profile picture to draw. :) Great insight too. Thanks for the comment.

Tom Mason

I just like the idea of supporting you and seeing general posts or vlogs on here.

Jacques-André Blouin

I realy liked the post-it art piece you recently did. And I think your video could be a good promotion tool for your Patreon that should stay public. So may be one or two drawing per month (not on a Post-it 😉) could be a nice option. You could pick names from a list until everyone on the right Patreon section got theirs and then start over from the top. We would have to send you a picture of who we want you to draw.

Daniel Lieske

I would second Jacques-André in that I think that your video content, since it is a substancial extra effort to produce, should all go public in order to spread the word about your projects.

Yes, yes. Hmmm. That has been my mindset for as long as I can remember but for some reason since Patrecon I think I want to have about 75% of my videos public and the other 25% only for patrons. At least I want to try this for 2018. I can always release them to public the next year if it doesn't work out very well. Maybe I am just making a rash decision and I will change my mind later. Oh man, this is so hard to decide.

Great idea. I'm trying to figure out if I will be happy about offering that 6 months from now though. But I can see how putting more time into patreon rewards can potentially really help it grow. I will definitely think about offering this for a higher tier. Thanks for the idea. :)

Jacques-André Blouin

I’m talking about just one or two drawing per month. Kind of like a draw, that everyone in that tier will win eventualy. We will just need to wait or turn. And at the end, every names return on the list and the cycle restart. That way new Patreon just need to be add to the list. Good its

Oops, I hit the post by mistake. Hope my last post make thing more clear. The last thing we want his take away time from your project. You certainly shouldn’t be drawing for Patreon allo the time. Just one or two drawing per month.

Nick Welch

Theres no reason why you can't do exactly what you just said. Save a percentage of videos for here only. You can always release them on Youtube later.

Jason Brubaker

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too. I can give it a year and see how valuable it is to make Patreon only content. And if it doesn't seem to help the patreon growth then I can feed some of those vids to Youtube eventually. Thanks Nick!

Nick Welch

Just want to say that I think a monthly video along the lines of "Sketch to Finished Illustration: Spider Monster" along with a wallpaper or PSD file of the artwork would be mega awesome. Whether it's fan art (I know it's not your thing) a pinup of your own characters, or a splash page from whatever you're currently working on doesn't matter as much as seeing the final art. I think it would be awesome to see you revisit ReMIND from time to time. And whatever you create could be book cover/promotional art for that tween book adaptation. ;)

Ronney Aragundi

some ideas, the tier 1 -5 are confusing, leaving you with only the 10 dollar tier option. please explain it there that the patrons only feed will be open (for the people who are not familiar with the system) and also link your Gumroad account, and every where we can see your vast amount of work visually your books, pictures of you presenting in conventions ect.. , create "social Proof" like you do during your kickstarters, this Patreon page is not presented for a person who is completely new to your work, in fact is sorta hides and reduces all the amazing stuff you have made. add graphics on the rewards and intro, and finally hire a good photographer once a year to make a photoshoot of you your family and your studio. must of you images seem to come from a Motorola from the 1990s, and you have so much content you could probably add 5 items to your Gumroad account valued at 35,70,500 check (Domestika.org), if you are using Gumroad for instructional purposes, a lot of people who seek you out in youtube are young artists looking for advice, and you are awesome and I'm a fan Jason :) sorry about this long post!

Great advice Ronney! I will try to make the $1 and $5 tiers more clear. And I do plan to add visuals to the tiers. I can see what you are saying that the work is hidden and I plan to make a video showcasing a bunch of stuff soon. Thank you so much for your suggestions. :)
