Website update and account changes

We've got an update on the chupa website with the new batch of pages, 7-13. I keep telling myself to limit how much background work I do. Although seven pages in a month isn't really that bad, I'd like to get up to 2-3 pages a week, and backgrounds are the biggest drag on that. I think I have an old technique I can use in the next batch - that is, one background/establishing shot per page - so we'll see how well it works for the next batch.
My Twitch channel has been doing well lately! The Saturday morning art streams are popular, and we have fun with the raffle-style free requests. It's something I'd definitely like to keep up.
An experiment I'm going to stop, however, is that new $5 patreon tier. The numbers are kind of weird and it's an ungainly reward offer, so I took it down. If you are a current $5 patron you will receive a 1-hour request art by May! I already messaged the next four recipients, and the last batch of recipients will get their drawing in April. If you pledged $5 solely for this reward, I advise you adjust or delete it.
The biggest change is my patreon model, which will now pay "per creation" - in my case, public comic and video posts. This means I will make a post like this one (but not this one! The next one) when the next batch of comics is complete, and that will be the charged post. Comic batches will be at LEAST four pages, and should happen once a month, so effectively the charge to you guys is the same. There may be months when I make two comic updates, or post a comic update and an episode of TPC, so if you have concerns about your pledge, I encourage you to visit your settings and make sure there's a limit to charges made per month.
TL;DR Changed from monthly subscription model to pay-per-creation! Will not charge on WIP comic pages or videos, only completed episodes and comic batches! Love you guys! It's Mardi Gras tomorrow! Have a sweet March!
