Changes in tiers | Comic (Patreon)

Hi!I've been managing this patreon page for over a year now - a very fruitful period of my life. I've learned a lot about my own capabilities if it comes to amount of work I can do while staying motivated. I now know what is making me flourish as an artist, and what makes my progress slower. I want to share with you my thoughts on it and let you know about my future plans regarding this Patreon page. 

1. Comic

Throughout many months you, my followers on instagram, friends and family encouraged me to start creating a comic. For a long time I lacked belief in my capabilities to do so, but I devoted long hours of practice to become more skillful and brave to actually try and create something with a beginning and an end.Therefore I want to announce that the upcoming months will be devoted to writing a story, storyboarding and creating a comic ✨This caliber of a project will need a lot of my time and focus, and with current state of tier rewards I will not be able to complete it. Therefore:

2. Change in tiers.

Unfortunately it is crucial to change the current look of the tiers, especially the highest one.Creating 25 post-it sketches takes me around two weeks to complete each month. Every project always has to be stopped around middle of the month so I can be sure that every sketch is complete and sent on time. I planned to start on creating the comic for a while now but I always had to switch my focus to post-its and even though I love creating them, they are very time consuming.

These are the changes that will happen:

Spikes 1$ Tier: (Unlimited spots)[no changes]- SFW sketches- SFW videos- SFW Studies- SFW Reference sketchesGags 6$ Tier:(Unlimited spots)- Early awareness of prints and stickers drops- Discounts up to 25% on my etsy shop - NSFW art- High resolution scans- Free access to digital sketchbooks  ✨  - Monthly poll  ✨  - Early access to finished pages of the comic ✨- plus everything from the previous tierPlugs 20$ Tier:(Unlimited spots) ✨- Monthly Goodie Bag! (10x15cm photoprint + vinyl sticker)- Exclusive access to wips, video processes, storyboards, scans surrounding the comic ✨- plus everything from the previous tier 

I will be removing one of the rewards from Plugs 2.0 tier - "monthly sketch on a post-it note delivered monthly by mail".

3. When and how will this happen?

I will edit the tiers on the 1st of July.

 If you'll want to switch to a different tier - editing your pledge will not sign you up for it. The only way to be signed up to it will be to click "Join Tier" button under the description of the tier itself. May and June are the two last months of monthly post-it sketches in the form they are tackled now. It doesn't mean I won't be drawing on post-its ever again but it will not be a part of the tier rewards anymore. If I'm going to draw on sticky notes, I'll be later on listing it on Etsy after an advance notification here on Patreon - so all of my Patrons will get a chance to prepare and grab their favorite drawing in my Etsy shop. 

I'm sure that these changes will let me devote my time fully to creating the comic and give me the exact amount of fresh air to not get overwhelmed by this new project. Thank you all for supporting me in my journey and stay tuned for some more news and updates!
