I've discussed it with my Patrons over on Discord, and I decided to implement a new Patron perk (in place of an existing one) this coming month. But first, a bit of a backstory.
Last year, I implemented an upfront charge to my commission rates, to prevent people ghosting me once they got the roughest of rough sketches (No joke, the last time this happened, it was two different people at the same time). Not so much an impromptu price rise, it was more an assurance the commissioner was actually willing to pay for the full piece.
Nowadays, I realise the patrons are more than trusting with payment, so for them, I've decided to dismiss the upfront charge for their commissions as of November. This will be included to all the tiers, including the lesser ones.
