Greetings mortals~

I have a few announcements to make regarding my commissions, as well as future prospects. I would like to start by saying that I unfortunately have to close shop for now. There are some matters that require my attention before I can continue. I am not entirely sure how long it will take me, but my guess is at least one or two weeks. I would like to reiterate that this does not mean I will no longer be accepting orders, rather they are temporarily closed until I am ready. Thank you to those who have commissioned me prior. It was a pleasure doing business with you and I hope you come back for more!

Moving on, I have plans to re-open my old Discord server, along with my Patreon. Yes, at one point I had both a server and a Patreon. They were active during the beginning of the year, but due to circumstances, I had to shut them down. I am happy to say that they will once again start anew. The tiers that I had prior to my Patreons closing will remain the same, however their might be a slight price increase for each tier. I cannot provide any incite on prices at this time, but I can discuss what you can expect.

I originally offered only two tiers, and as I mentioned earlier, they will remain the same. The first tier, which was the cheapest, granted you access to works in progress (WIPs), timelapses, Photoshop/Clip Studio Paint files, and my art archive. WIPs should be self-explanatory. Timelapses consist of videos that playback the entire drawing process for most of my projects, in other words, you will be able to see a drawing come to life in video format! The Photoshop/Clip Studio Paint files are the raw drawing files themselves. These are only of use to you if you yourself are an artist and wish to dissect every detail of my drawings.

Lastly, my art archive consists of all my drawings from the year 2016 to 2021. These are drawings that I have not posted anywhere else and are completely exclusive to Patrons. Some have managed to find their way onto other sites, but it is only a very small insignificant percent. The second tier, which was the most expensive, granted everything that I previously mentioned, but also included the opportunity to receive a colored sketch once a month. Patrons had the option of getting either two colored sketches featuring one character, or one colored sketch featuring two characters. These options may or may not change. Regardless of what occurs, this tier will still provide some type of illustration. It should be noted that this tier was limited to only three people.

Patreon rewards were accessed solely through my Discord server, where they resided within channels that only my Patrons could access. Besides housing Patreon rewards, the server also acted as a social space. The server consisted of channels that are standard to most. Voice channels, art sharing channels, meme channels, discussion channels, etc... I do not plan to have any of these channels. The new server will primarily be used as a sort of "notification hub," for those who wish to be informed on anything relating to my artwork.

I have come to find, through my experiences, that running a server can be stressful. My previous experiences proved that I was not capable of maintaining a server that allowed social interactions. It is with this knowledge that I am making the decision to strictly forbid any social interactions taking place within the server. Again, the server will only act as a place to receive notifications. Joining the server is not mandatory and is completely optional, unless you are a Patron.

This concludes all that needed to be said. Please be sure to keep an eye out for any future announcements, should any of the previous information discussed, peek your interest. Thank you and have a great day!
