The Basic OxPatreon Guide 2024

Hey there! Oxdarock here!

Welcome to Oxdarock’s Patreon Guide! Everything you need to know about my Patreon can be found here. As of January 1st, 2024, I've decided to switch up my focus and how I approach my Patreon content. If you have any questions, feel free to message me!

Regarding New Memberships from Apple's iOS App

Please don't join using this. In order to adjust to Apple's iOS mandate and fees, prices on the iOS app are about 43% higher than other platforms. Nobody wants to deal with this, including Patreon themselves, and none of that extra money goes to me. So if you want to join, just do so from a web browser or Android app.

Monthly Exclusive Content

-Any content that is only publicly visible via a preview is a monthly exclusive and will only be sent by joining the appropriate tier. Furthermore, only content that hasn't been released on my online store will be available to be sent out.

-I send out Dropbox links for finished Patreon exclusives.  When I finish a new piece , I'll send out a link that day via Patreon messages. I'll send out a monthly link to everyone who's been charged at the end of the month. For new members, I'll send out all the relevant links upon joining. Also, please note that the links will not work if accessed from the Patreon app (I don't know why). They also need to be downloaded individually via "save-as" (right click) due to access shenanigans on Dropbox.

-Regarding the Sketch Archive for the Grand ($10) tier, this folder is contains sketches of a majority of my work available on my online store, including comic pages, and is periodically updated. To learn more about the benefits of the Sketch Archive, visit this post.

-Regarding MISC and Comic Archives, I'll periodically make new folders for these whenever I release a new item on my online store, in order to retain some exclusivity.

RollOver Discounts and Squish Tips Suggestions (Giant Tier)

-RollOver Discounts refers how much extra was paid compared to how much I expected a Sponsored Commission to be based on my hourly commission rates ($15 per hour). Normally, a discount is recorded if more than half of the actual amount is paid. For Giant ($20) tier patrons, the discount if more than 1/3rd of the actual amount is paid. Furthermore, RollOver Discounts can be used for any commission up to 2/3rds of the quoted price.

-On a monthly basis, Giant ($20) tier patrons can make four extra suggestions/boosts to any Squish Tips they donate to. To keep things simple, all four suggestions can only apply at once and cannot be split between different Squish Tips.

And that's pretty much it! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to leave a comment, send me a message, send me an email, or contact me on Discord (there's a link on the sidebar of my online site, oxrockblock.com. With that said...
