--- TL:DR ---
I'm adding a new tier called the "Explorer" tier.
It will include:
Commentary on future pages
Pencils, Inks and Colors for future pages showing the production process.
Additional weekly sketches.
Send in your suggestions on what get drawn each week.
Questions? Comments? Leave them below.
--- Long Version ---
I've honestly been wanting to post more often, but I don't want to flood people with notifications, or flood the feed too badly for people who are not interested. So the best plan was to make a new tier to accomodate this.
I've been discovering with Inktober that I can do nice fun sketches on my D&D nights. Sadly, I can't work on the comic during D&D sessions. It's too distracting. Also, I've been pushing myself to do more non-comic sketches to improve my skills. Overall there just isn't a good time in the schedule to post them without burying the comic with posts.
So I want to use these sketches explore different skills and test out things. I'll draw my characters, or draw pop culture fan art, or test out different transformations (or other fun things :wink: ).
I'm more than happy to take suggestions from our Explorers for these sketches as well. Not like a commission, because with the schedule, trying to nail exact details takes up a large chunk of time. But if it's a fun and interesting suggestion, high chance of it happening.
Likewise, I've been considering posting the pencils and different steps off the comic pages for a while. I think it looks interesting and people may enjoy it.
Also with the "commentary", I rarely know what to say about a page when it's getting posted. I've normally just finished the page and my brain is kind of blank. Getting some time after it's up to make a Commentary/WIP post gives me more time to reflect and answer questions that might have come up.
--- Current Tiers ---
Pretty much most things will stay the same.
I'll likely move some of the more random future sketch/pin up posts to the Explorer Tier.
Captioned Sketches and Main Pin Ups/Covers will stay with all paid Patrons.
Also there is an old low tier that hasn't been available for a couple years. Price for that tier will be increasing by $1 to cover increasing platform fees, inflation, etc. That tier has also been a large increase of benefits since the tier began. You should be getting an email notification if that effects you. It's a relatively small group of people. I don't like making those changes, but been something I needed to do for a while.
