Over on my Patreon account www.patreon.com/zelda308 I just added a new goal. After the first $850/month, I'll post my line art in addition to the finished artwork. This is something brand new for me - I think I've posted maybe 3 or 4 line arts EVER - so those at "The Power" ($18+) tier will be in for a treat! That, and of course you get the POWER at that tier. So far, they've directed me to draw more Malon's Promise pages. And they're awesome.

P.S. For those worried, I'm not abandoning my DA account - I'm now guaranteeing up to 15 new pages every month! There are a lot of other artists out there who only post insanely cropped versions of their art on DA once they create a Patreon account. I will ALWAYS post my COMPLETE art here. A month or so after the "page by page" pics are posted on Patreon, they'll be posted on DA. At that point, the Patreon posts will be made available at the $2 tier - standard def (same as DA) but without watermarks (unlike DA). The high def versions will be made available to "The Power" ($18+) patrons in the month they're created.
For example, the non-watermarked Raven and Starfire pics are available on my Patreon account now. They were originally posted back in November 2014 for Patrons, and now that month is over, they're available for the world!

Comics for Patrons
A reminder to those of you on Patreon: Make sure to watch your Total Lifetime Contribution and send me your requests for the comic(s) you'd like me to send you when you reach a Lifetime goal. Patreon doesn't have this feature, so we'll have to manage it ourselves! When you get to $25 you get 1 comic +bonus content, and when you get to $100 you get 4 more comics +bonus content.
Thank you again!

People are Awesome
So as you know, I've been working on a Patreon campaign. So far it's going great. Like really great. And so I just wanted to take the time right now to say that people are awesome.
We're up to 55 patrons right now (OMG). And I have a solid backlog of artwork to complete, so everyone can expect new and amazing things this month and next. I'm trying to complete the new Malon chapter this month and it looks like "The Power"+ patrons are wanting the same thing, since they've voted for Malon's Promise the last two months in a row (and hopefully this month is the same so I can have a little more time dedicated to Malon). The first 8 pages lo
8 Days to Go...
If you want to see the rest of the "Darkness" chapter right now, you can either send $15 via PayPal to zelda308@gmail.com or pledge $15+ on Patreon.

-- EDIT --
There are 8 days remaining in the Patreon monthly billing cycle, and we're steadily climbing! My goal is to reach the $1K mark by the end of the month and maintain it through December. That unlocks even more pages per month and covers a lot of bills, bringing my artwork-creation really close to self-sufficiency. So please tell your friends and post a link on your pages! I'm super-excited and super-thankful for all of your support!!

I'm feeling kinda down about all this Patreon stuff now. I thought the idea would be that through generous donations, everyone would be able to enjoy premium content. Now it seems like content is gated off more than ever.
I know you work hard and to be an artist full time, you need to make ends meet. But I have a shit job too, and I also have to pay to live. I love your work, and I've followed it for quite some time, but I can't afford to pay $18 a month.
I mean no offense of course. I'm just a tad worried that the lower class will be at a loss because of what they can't afford.
