Update. Changes to Patreon going forward

Hey there everyone, I hope you're all being safe and what not during these crazy times currently with the covid-19 and what not. I been wanting to make this update for a couple months now, and I just wanted to say a few things. I would really appreciate the read as well, there's some important info.

For a long time, one year now since April 2019, I haven't been charging any patrons who have been pledging. The main reason why is because of the $10 tier on here, the sketch tier. At the beginning, I offered colored sketches to a limited amount of people who pledge to that tier specifically, after they've been charged and what not. Those started to pile up, and I started owing people art, and that made me feel awful. So I said to myself at that time, I wasn't going to charge any patrons till I finished all of the things I owed. And I've slowly worked on them during that time. I got a few more to do, and then those will be done.

As of late, I've been thinking about this a lot on what I wanna do forward with this Patreon, and I've decided I wanna get rid of the sketch tier. This Patreon originally is supposed to be a tip jar in the first place, and the addition to the sketch tier made it feel like a hassle and a chore more than everything. At first, in my head, it was a good idea to make that pledge so I could get some people interested, but I honestly carried more weight than I was hoping for. I feel like I might make some people upset doing that and I'm really sorry.

To try and make up for it, I've already try to start posting WIPs on here for finished drawings that I plan on finishing and what not, though it might not be much I feel. But, I've also been thinking, that maybe, since I wanna do full time commissions (or at least try to) I can do this here; a 5% discount on commissions if you pledge $1, and a %10 discount if you pledge $5.

I would like to also say, that I would like to start charging on this Patreon again, starting in May. I would like this update to let you guys know a head of time, in case you would like to edit your pledge, or leave out right. Either way, I would completely understand, and wont have any ill will towards anyone who decides to not be a patron anymore.

I wanna really apologize to all of yall, and I also wanna thank everyone who has kept their pledge on here, even though I haven't been charging. I hope you guys understand the change, and hope that the ones who have been wanting/are wanting to have the sketch tier aren't too upset if they are.
