Big update (finally!), please read!
🕑 Added 2024-08-03 16:29:59 +0000 UTCHey folks! It has been one hell of a time for me these past few months, so I'd like to apologize about my inactivity (outside of comm work). I definitely haven't been delivering on Patreon, so I'm finally gonna get around to making changes to my tiers and rewards. I'm looking balance sustainability and appeal, so I hope you all like it! As always, I'm open to feedback. Here's what's happening:
---
New and reworked Patreon tiers!
I'm going to simplify and expand my tier options to make them much more distinct from each other. Each tier will have its own focus, and should be it's main selling point! The following list might look a little familiar, if you read the last update I made forever ago.
Here are the reworked tiers:
$5: Illustrations - This is the first tier, and it's not changing too much. For this one, you'll get to see all of my sketches and artwork as soon as it's done! Polls will be around with reduced priority, and you'll be able to cast your vote for any poll relating to a themed illustration.
$10: Comic pages - The middle tier is being bumped up slightly, and is going to be where you get access to comic pages that I make! I cannot promise they will be extremely frequent to start, but going forward, I hope I can make this a big priority! Comic polls are also a possibility here, and you'll also be able to vote for those here.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Those currently in the existing $8 mid-tier will be grandfathered into the $10 comic page tier at their existing pledge amount. If you're not super interested in comics, please feel free to save a few bucks and downgrade! Also, in the event you leave the legacy tier, there will be no going back.
$15: VIP - The VIP tier (yet to be renamed) is getting the biggest makeover to justify its existence again, since I've shelved many of its old perks over time. Once a month, one person will be chosen to receive a free(?) sketch portrait! It's not exactly free because you have to pay for access to the tier, but you know what I mean. Please read more about the portrait selections in the Discord server.
Also, like before, you'll also be able to submit potential poll options for both of the two previous tiers.
And here is the new tier:
MONTHLY SKETCH COMM SLOTS!!!! The price for this is currently undetermined (I am considering something in the realm of $50), and slots will be extremely limited. I will not impose any sort of restriction on the amount of time you can remain subscribed to this tier, but because of the limited availability, I humbly ask that you remain considerate to others.
If demand is high enough, I may consider increasing the slots, or making more monthly commission tiers, such as colored sketches, etc.
* All of the new tiers are going to be updated soon, but will take proper effect starting September (next month).

Discord updates! (finally!)
It's been a hot minute since I rebranded my social media presence, but my poor Discord server is still trapped in my TimDoodles era. I'll be updating its aesthetics to match my Telegram channel, 'The Shark Tank', as well as generally reworking the available channels and permissions. Please bear with me for the time being, in case portions of the server become temporarily inaccessible. I will also be opening up the server to the public in a limited fashion, creating a small space for those who want to support me from Twitch. And speaking of Twitch...
---
Livestreams!
I want to get back into livestreaming, both on Twitch and occasionally Picarto, so please look forward to that! ...Not much else to say here. lol.
---
Anyways, that's it! Please bear with me as I work on updating everything through the month, and a HUGE thank you to all of you who have stuck by me through hard times. Even while I wasn't keeping up my end of the bargain on Patreon, I absolutely could not have survived without the consistent support.
Here's to a better future! Stay tuned!

Yay! So excited for twitch/picarto streams if they come to fruition. I find myself subscribing more frequently to artists there than on other content platforms. Something about the live community interaction is so pleasant, and always makes me want to contribute my support :) love the rest of the coming updates too, hope it all goes smoothly 🥰
Tim!
i sure will! good luck!
