REWORKING OF PATRON TIERS AND REWARDS

Added 2015-11-11 19:00:05 +0000 UTC

Recently my patreon has taken a hit in its donations. As of this posting we are down to 14 patrons for a total of $157. This is well below the second goal, which is sad.

There is little reward for supporting me, yet all of you have stuck around. I cannot thank you enough.

I have decided to restructure my tiers and rewards system. Here are my current observations:

- Samurai Twi has proven to be about as popular as a stick in the mud. I will continue it for the time being, but may remove and replace goals related to it.

- It is rare that patrons go to cons and even rarer that my initial plan for a voting structure works out. These rewards will be replaced.

- I am notoriously poor at remembering to stream and record these streams. I will work on this.

- Rewards of a sufficient quality are difficult to produce. Art takes time. Working 40 hours a week for $200 a month would be unproductive, but supporting without receiving a reward is also bad.

If any of you have any notes or suggestions for tiers or improvements they are welcome. Possible rewards:

Prints of pieces.

Patron commissions - these would be limited in scope. Sketches, discounts on full commissions and the like.

Access to psd files.

Raffles for commissions.

What kinds of rewards do you expect or want?
