TL;DR:
-I'm making the minimum price $3 again starting in March ($1 tier exists because of COVID-19)
-New loyalty program for $8+ patrons
-The wishmas list is here to stay (no more polls)
-Black/white drawings are going to be a thing now (like manga)
-Comic strips will be a thing now.
In-depth reasoning:
I made my art accessible for $1 because of covid. At the cost of profit, I made sure everyone could pledge and see my art. As the vaccine rolls out and things calm down a bit, I will be increasing the minimum to $3. The $1 tier will still be there, but it will only grant you access to the discord server and art critiques.
There's a new loyalty program for patrons! If you pledge $8 or more, you will receive physical rewards every 3 months. The first is an art print, second is a sticker, and third is a poster. These are patreon-exclusive, and can't be purchased any other way. I'll be designing the rewards, but you can all vote on whether or not you want them to be nsfw.
Last month, I made the Big Booty Wishmas List, and though I'm still working on completing some of those requests, I found that I actually quite liked the idea of picking from a list of characters you guys suggest. One of my favorite artists does this regularly, and I think it's a good balance of having artistic freedom and prioritizing patreon rewards. For that reason, the wishmas list is here to stay! (bye-bye, polls!)
There are two major reasons why I'm removing the polls. Having only 1 winner out of many suggestions kinda sucks for those who's suggestion didn't make it, but still pay for the poll suggestions. Another reason is that, honestly, I just didn't like the winner sometimes. Me being able to pick multiple characters from your suggestions is a good balance, in my opinion.
The black/white drawings are manga-style drawings that I will start posting this year in addition to the usual colored drawings I post. They're a lot easier to make than the colored drawings, and I usually just trash them, but I know some of you might enjoy them, so I'm polishing them up a bit and posting them on the page. This will also let me make a lot more drawings per month, hopefully.
Lastly, the comics. I want to prepare to make a full length comic, but in the mean-time I'm going to be posting singular pages and adding a little bit of dialogue to the drawings. Sort of like how TWAQ and Mr.Skull make their pages. It'll be baby-steps towards making an actual full-length comic someday.
