Large Increase in Patreon Sketch Club Streams

$500 per month

At this level I anticipate there being a LOT more Sketch Club members, so to accommodate the increase, every Saturday will now feature a dedicated Patreon Sketch Club stream! It will switch between afternoon and evening times, but I will be increasing the length of the stream as well to fit in more people and get more sketches done.

Full Color Page Updates

$750 per month

At this level, all pages will be posted in full color/shading instead of grayscale.

Peter and Company is a comic that I have published online since 2005. Several years later in 2012, I partnered with Spark-Flow Studios to pitch the concept of an animated series based on the comic and fund a pilot episode via Kickstarter. The campaign was successful and the pilot episode was funded, which is now in production. Since then we have come up with some fantastic ideas for how to make the pilot even greater.

By pledging as a patron to Peter and Company, you will be contributing to both the comic and the future animated series. The more funds we can raise for the series' budget, the better quality we will be able to make the pilot episode and the greater chance we have of delivering a successful pitch. Individual comic updates will continue even after the animated series is launched, and will be posted to the official site regularly on Mondays.

Your support will not only fund regular updates to the comic and increase the potential of the pilot, but will also assist with the completion/publishing of future book collections and other P&C-related projects!

The rewards are separated into three categories, each with their own tiers: Universal, Sketch Club, and Monthly Art. After pledging, you must choose between either the Sketch Club or the Monthly Art tiers. Universal tiers apply to everyone.

Regardless of whether you choose the Sketch Club or Monthly Art paths, you will receive the following items in addition to your art. Consider them to be bonus gifts for all patrons!

$5 - Get access to the Desktop Wallpaper Club. Monthly wallpapers are drawn based on requests from members of the Peter & Company Forums. The low-res final versions of each wallpaper will be posted for free to gallery on the main P&C website, but only Club members get the HD versions e-mailed to them each month.
$10 - Free signed & sketched copy of P&C Volume 1.
$20 - Free signed & sketched copies of the first two P&C books (volume 2 coming early 2015).
$30 - Free signed & sketched copies of the first two P&C books, plus the P&C Bible (coming in 2015).

The Patreon Sketch Club is a special group of supporters. Members of the club are eligible to receive free sketches on specially-designated Sketch Club streams on Tigerdile. Those in attendance have their names added to a roulette wheel, which decides who receives a sketch that evening. Each member is limited to one sketch each month (the pool is refreshed at the start of each new month), and you must be present in the stream at the time your sketch is drawn.

Check the Tigerdile stream page for each week's stream schedule. Sketch Club streams are typically once every couple weeks.
Once the Patreon campaign reaches the $500 milestone, every Saturday evening will be dedicated to the Sketch Club!

All tiers (except premium) have the option to upgrade their sketches to full ink/color for $20 via PayPal.

$10 - Basic Level 1 membership. Two characters max, no backgrounds.
$20 - Level 2: Up to three characters, basic backgrounds.
$30 - Level 3: Up to four characters, detailed environments, costumes, and dialog.
$40 - PREMIUM SKETCH CLUB: Same as level 3, but inked & colored.

The Monthly Art tiers are my standard commission prices. They are more expensive than the Sketch Club, but are also a more reliable option for those who want custom art. Whereas the Sketch Club is decided by roulette based on those who attend the streams, the Monthly Art tiers guarantee you a new piece of art each month based around the tier you select.

If you choose these tiers and only wish for a single piece of art, you may change to a Sketch Club tier (or lower your pledge altogether) after your first month's payment has gone through. I will send each Monthly Art member a message at the start of each month after payment has cleared to request your details for your pic.

NOTE: This is the only way I will be accepting new commissions for the time being. My available space is limited for each month, so if the tier you want is currently unavailable, send me a note on FurAffinity or via e-mail and I will let you know when one opens up.

$25 (max 5 slots) - A sketch of up to three characters, detailed environments.
$50 (max 5 slots) - Up to three characters, detailed environments, inked & colored.
$100 (max 2 slots) - CUSTOM COMIC TIER: Get a full comic page from me, finished in inked lineart.
$150 (max 2 slots) - PREMIUM COMIC TIER: Get your full comic page finished in color.

"Colored" above refers to digital coloring in Photoshop. I also offer coloring in ink wash and watercolors, though for a higher price. Let me know ahead of time if this is what you would like and I can send you details on the process for it.
