NEW YEAR, NEW PATREON!(Tier Changes, new tier?!)

Hey everyone! Happy 2020, I've spent all of today, the 1st day of the new year, and I've decided I'm going to double down on Patreon in a big way. 

First though, I want to thank all of you who have pledged or followed me on this platform. It's been nine months since I opened the Patreon page, and I've gotten more than I expected to receive, and such lovely sweet support and comments from all of you. 

Here's what's going on. My Patreon is going to shift from being a tip jar to being more project-focused. What is my first project? My art career! Yes, you read write, er, I mean right. I promise though it won't be indefinite, I'm sure I'll be picking up projects along the way. 

But this patreon page is going to be about my journey to doing art full time. I'm going to be putting all the stakes I've got into this(mmmh, steak) and, maybe by sharing my experiences with you, it can help you too in some way! Or at the least, perhaps it'll give you some interesting things to talk about with me or think about! I draw every day whenever I can, so I didn't feel like it was terribly valuable for your time or mine that I just have an exclusive picture once a month or so. I'd like everyone to be able to see my art anyway!

$1 Tier - Nuki News! 

Almost every week(minimum 3 weeks per month) I'll post an Art Journal about my progress towards my art goals, thoughts on certain topics in the furry community, art community, videogames, business as a creative, etc, so you know where I'm at and where I'm headed. These posts eventually may become public, but the dollar will get you access 3 weeks ahead. You also get access to see the results to the next tier....

$5 Tier - AMA, or Ask Artie Anything!

Goin' with the triple-A's here, haha! But at this tier we can keep some nice engagement by having you ask me about anything, and I'll draw my response to it! It can be about anything, from art topics, serious topics, or sillier topics, a scathing question on how I'm managing my life, or how I like to sleep, this is your chance! I'll be posting AMA answers on the 15th of every month! But don't ask your AMA question yet - I'll be making an official post for the AMA's for organization. 

$50 Tier - Sketcha' Nuki!

Introducing the higher tier of support! I'll take a sketch request from you once a month! It would be shaded, but one color. It's limited to one character, but you can choose to save the request for another month in order to request a picture with multiple characters, a background, but no more than that! I wouldn't be able to draw more than 2-3 characters or bank up multiple requests. 

I wanted this to be a bit more engaging than a simple tip jar now, and I hope you guys like the sound of it! I'll be creating a Ko-Fi account soon to have that be more of a tip-jar-avenue if that's your fancy! Thanks so much for your understanding. If you have questions about this Patreon change, or have thoughts about this direction please lemme know! If this seems like a stupid bone-headed move on my part, feel free to tell me! And, also tell me if my changing the tiers messed something up on the Patron-end of things! I don't believe it should, though.

I'll be kicking off the first Nuki News post on Wednesday, January 8th! The AMA post will be made on the 5th to submit questions for that, specifically! Thanks ever so much again, and I look forward to making this art journey work! It's not going to be easy, but with you at my side, I will not stop!
