🧵 Page 1/3: Change Ahead!

#webcomic #krita

A webcomic page in four panel:

Panel 1. A cartoony little witch, named Pepper, probably 9 years old on this comic, with her red cat, Carrot. She screams through a megaphone with a loudness symbol, and Carrot has big eyes because he wasn't prepared.
> Pepper: (big and bold): "Important message!"
> Pepper: "My Patreon & Tipeee platforms are changing to a monthly subscription model starting in 2026."

Panel 2. Pepper shrugs after throwing the megaphone. Carrot recovers from the sound.
> Pepper: "Now, instead of supporting my work 'per new Pepper&Carrot episode', you'll only have the option to support me monthly."

Panel 2b (small inset in Panel 2). Pepper's face shows her anger, but she tries to refrain it.
> Pepper: "Was it my choice? No! I was forced, like all 'per content' creators..."

Panel 3. Carrot has a big wrench, and up on a ladder, he adjusts some cogs.
> Pepper: "But, before I explain more, I invite all my Tipeee and Patreon supporters to adjust their donations."

Panel 4. Pepper crouches down, petting a happy little wallet with a smile.
> Pepper: "It's okay to lower your donation to adapt to the new monthly support model."
> Pepper: "Be kind to your wallet!"

🧵 Page 2/3: The Why

#webcomic #krita

A webcomic page in four panel:

Panel 5. Pepper and Carrot are both now on a platform, surrounded by screens displaying the thumbnails of MiniFantasyTheater episodes.
> Pepper: "This change is also the reason why I started posting weekly comic strips every wednesday since last summer."

Panel 6. Pepper proudly sits on one side of a scale labeled "Weekly comic strip", with a large present on the other side, labeled "Monthly support".
> Pepper: "I wanted to see if I could sustain giving you something weekly before I had to switch to monthly support, which I knew was coming."

Panel 7. A graphic split into three categories: "Weekly comic strips" illustrated by the quick jumps of a rabbit, "Pepper&Carrot episode" illustrated by the long flight of a crane, and "Bonus: tutorials, reviews, brushes, etc..." illustrated by the randomness of a cat.
> Pepper: "AAnd all of that while producing long Pepper&Carrot episodes and bonuses behind the scenes."

Panel 8. Pepper sits in a yoga pose, looking relaxed and happy.
> Pepper: "And it worked!"
> Pepper: "I even found a good personal balance doing that."

🧵 Page 3/3: The Ask

#webcomic #krita

A webcomic page in four panels:

Panel 9. Pepper with a big syringe filled with bills, injecting them into a bag of money labeled "budget".
> Pepper: "But I'm also a bit nervous about these changes because, to make it work, I have to totally stop doing freelance work."
> Pepper: "I often relied on that in my 'per-creation' model: a nice safety net, but unfortunately, also very time-consuming between my new creations."

Panel 10. Pepper's silhouette, from behind, staring at the horizon with a mix of uncertainties and opportunities.
> Pepper: "Maybe this change will bring me the financial stability I need? Or maybe this change will turn bad and force me to stop everything and return to doing only freelance work..."
> Pepper: "This uncertainty is crushing me."

Panel 11. Carrot is holding a big heart plushy.
> Pepper: "So more than ever, I need your help."
> Pepper: "Again, a big thank you to everyone who has supported me over the last 10 years, and who will keep supporting me after this change."

Panel 12. Pepper holds a hat, and coins are collected in it; some coins fly towards it. She looks happily surprised.
> Pepper: "And to everyone else, if you enjoy my work, please consider becoming my patron! Sending me a little coin each month can really help me!"
> Pepper: "You'll find all the links below, or in my bio. Thank you for reading!"
