Patron Updates - New Schedule! #002 (Patreon)

Hey Folks!

I'm here with an update on a few things, plus a few Patreon changes. I've added headings for each section for easier reading. This is bit of a looooong post. But, hopefully it gets you to understand where my head is at the moment and what I'm currently working on.

Patron Tier Changes

Followers now get access to all exclusive content 24 hours early!

Supporters now get access to all exclusive content 7 DAYS in advance!

I made these changes to help improve the general "value" of the follower tier, as I felt it was lacking just a bit with regards to special content. Obviously before you guys got access to exclusive stuff either way, but it was alongside a public release. Now, you get the value of the old supporter tier just for £4!

The Mercy Set

If you haven't seen (I don't blame you, more on that later.) I'm currently working on a Mercy set that you can preview in the WIP channel on Discord. This set is now almost 10 renders total, and has two animations currently in the oven. (One is a Patreon exclusive!) Obviously, this is a big release. The largest I've ever done by far in fact. I have no idea if the animations will release alongside the renders, but they will be added as an update so there won't be any additional waiting for you.

I modelled a completely furnished Overwatch-Style Office for this render, including a few props. The office blend file (plus a few bonus models not used in the office!) will be available to High Rollers the day of release. You'll be able to use everything I built in your own renders!

This set will be the first to release with the new schedule. That means it's going to be a while before some of you see the release. I will try and make a few smaller exclusives over the next week to help ease up that time gap and give you folks some extra goodness to chew on.

Streaming & Showing my WIPs

Now that I've had some time to reflect, I definitely want to show you folks (not just patrons, but public peeps too!) more of what I'm working on. Although I have the WIP Channel, and I post in there pretty frequently, not everyone is going to check a discord channel for daily updates (Which is completely understandable.) So, I've toyed around with the idea of streaming on Picarto. I will make an announcement on Twitter if/when I decide to do that! 

That's all for now. Hopefully you've found this to be a little insightful! Have a great day!
