New year, New Patreon Tier(details). I welcome input![Edit 1]

So some of you might have noticed: I added a new tier to this Patreon. I'm always looking for feedback on rewards and tiers, especially when adding new stuff and testing new waters. So please, let me know what you think of this! It's not set in stone. I'm just throwing ideas out there and want to offer additional rewards without knocking the others down at all in value.

Right now it's set to 25$ and focuses/features mostly on input, interaction and chance(in some ways) rather than offering more "stuff". So, no additional files or pinup votes, but instead comic subject/theme votes, pinup and comic page suggestions, additions... things like that. Here are the current rewards and explanations:

- I will make posts on the feed asking you for input on the pinup variations. What clothing items, objects, setting, expressions, etc.! I can't take every suggestion of course, but will listen to this tier posts for ideas first.

(Mostly self-explanatory. Posts in the feed after the pose has been picked, I'll take some suggestions for different items, but also can't say how many I can do or how detailed I can make them. I'll also take background/pose suggestions this way too.)

((Possible edit: May remove this as un-necessary, since all tiers provide input for such))

- Two votes on future comic subjects and stories, when it comes time to pick a new one.

(every X months, i'll whittle down the ideas for the next comic and put up my strongest ideas to get vote feedback from 10 and 25 tiers. This is largely to garner and gauge interest, if i'm REALLY feeling strong about a particular story I'll go with it regardless, but will cover the votes themes somehow sooner or later)

((Possible edit: One vote for tier 5 and 10 tiers in addition to this))

- You can use your OC/any character you like if picked during the Patreon Request Streams.

(if picked during the request streams, you can use your own OCs. I obv. can't guarantee you'll be picked, but the request stream will remain the same: 1 pick from 10 and 25 tier, 1 pick from 5,10, and 25, and then freebies.)

((Edit: likely changing this instead to "entering name twice in the request streams." instead of allowing OCs))

- Similar to the input on pinups, input on comics' panels, poses, themes, specific shots, etc. I will ask you guys for first! This is fairly flexible since comics require a lot of poses, angles and shots, it should be easy to work in various ideas.

(for example: you really want to see a facial shot, a side view, internal, X pose, etc. of the characters/comic that's going on. I'm always in need of these kinds of suggestions so this one should be easy. Not looking for insanely specific requests, but eh, we'll figure it out)

((Possible edit: May remove this as un-necessary, since all tiers provide input for such))

- If I need cameos for pinups or comic pages, I will ask this tier if they have any fitting characters to use. I will still charge a small amount proportional to the appearance of said cameo, but this tier will have the option to grab it first!

(I have to be clear on this one though: the keyword here is "fitting". -IF- I have an opening fo cameos/background characters (think extras or fillers), this is a way to get into the comic, if just in a minor way. It's a small bonus. It's not a full commission or anything, that'd drive me nuts. "Fitting" means it's up to my descretion. I'm not going to ruin the visual flow of a comic about African predators with some scifi character suddenly in the background, or one with wild piercings/colours/etc. Yes i admit I will be picky about this, but I could always just remove it entirely if it becomes a problem. I will open slots for a set amount and people will submit characters, and if picked, get the chance to pay much less than a full commission for some art of them to be in the comic)

((Possible edit: if pledge person doesn't have their own applicable character, they can pick one from someone else and I will ask them instead, or they can suggest I create a random character of some description/species of their choosing))

- All above rewards

Other possible rewards:

-Discount on printed works

-If picked in request stream, request guarantee colour and some extras

-Extra vote on pinup (4)

There are a few people already pledging past this amount and, from what i

can tell, some people can't switch tiers if they have their current

tier on Paypal. They'd have to use a card to sign up for a different

tier. I think this is because at some point Paypal started cracking down

on NSFW Patreon's and since mine is one of the more traffic-heavy ones I

suppose, it perhaps blocked new pledges from being made with Paypal,

but didn't remove existing ones..? I honestly have NO idea, this is just

guesswork.

Either way, if you have questions or feedback on this, comment below! Comments are better than PMs for this because it keeps things transparent and might answer other people's questions too.
