It's now June 2023.
Those of you who are reading this page probably know about my goals listed on the right side. My goal on SubscribeStar was to "reach 100% by June 2023."
This 100% is a milestone that would allow me to sustain a living, and if it falls short, I'll have to focus on another job (I'm a web creator).
As a result, there was a time when I reached 90%, but then the supporters dwindled, and currently, it's at 60%.
According to my plan, I intended to dedicate a year to creative activities starting from June 2022, but due to physical and mental health issues, I couldn't fully commit to my creative pursuits. I couldn't quit my job.
I believe the reasons for not achieving my goal lie here.

Thanks to those who continue to support me, I can continue the $10 Tier work.
This fact is the sole motivation that keeps me going, and without your support, I wouldn't be drawing.
I'm not an illustrator. I have no reason to draw apart from SubscribeStar.
I need your help to keep the artist named Mskah alive.

Thank you.

Hello everyone. Thank you for your kept support for me.

Sorry for the sudden notice, but there are some changes to Tier contents in Subscribestar.

The following changes will be made from October.

(1) Removing R plan ($1 Tier).
　Therefore, please cancel your R-plan ($1 Tier) during the month of September
　I will not be updateing R-plan ($1 Tier) in September.

(2) 'Access to my WIPs' in R-plan ($1 Tier) will be from E-plan ($3 Tier).
　I have been cropped the monthly illustration WIPs up to now, but from October I will be updated without cropping the monthly illustration WIPs.

(3) 'Early access to Illustration the month in low-res JEPG' in E-plan ($3 Tier) will be from A-plan ($10 Tier) only. (It will revert to the previous method)

I'm looking to increase SubscribeStar-only sketches from now on.
I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause you.
If you have any questions, please comment.
Thank you for your kept support.

Rule | The Sketch Commission for A-tier

I'm going to change the way do commission from this month.
The main commission is very taking time and I can't open them very often.
So I'm going to start doing the sketch commission for $10-tier.

Rules

(1) The sketch commission will be done once a month.
This is my minimum goal, but hopefully I can do it several times.

(2) Accept only one person's sketch commission.

(3) The sketch commissions is free.

(4) I can draw only one character in the sketch commission.
Can't add the extra characters.

(5) Can't order the sketch commission's content.
I just draw according to the character reference you send.

(6) Please comment on the post that started the sketch commission:
- Character's reference URL (make URL in Failmail) OK: Twitter URL, Google Drive, Dropbox and so on.
- Character's name

Write only like this comment:

Exception to the comment rule: It's possible the sketch commissions will be NSFW art.
If you don't want it to be NSFW, please write in the comment field.

(7) Can't fix the finished sketch commission.
I'm going to upload it to SubscribeStar when it's completed.

(8) Finished the sketch commission will be uploaded on SubscribeStar's public post, so everyone can see it.
Even if you don't support me on SubscribeStar, you can see it.

(9) Accepted your number of times will be counted and it will be reset every 10 times of opened the sketch commission.
If you are accepted in #1, the other supporters will be given priority over you in #2-#10 even if the others have a shorter support period than you. Your priority will be reset at #11.
Accepted: #7 / Reset: #11
Accepted: #13 / Reset: #21

(10) The order of priority of the person who I accept will change depending on whether the number of times the sketch commission has been held is even or odd.

◆In case of odd number times (#1, #3, #5...)

Priority: The person who is supporting me the longest in the comment section.
Period for acceptance: With (1 day)
Note: If there are no comments after 1 day, I will extend the acceptance period by 1 day more. If there are no comments after 7 days, this sketch commission will be closed without being held.

◆In case of even number times (#2, #4, #6...)

Priority: First person to write in the comment field.
Period for acceptance: Without (Acceptance ends when the first comment is written.)
Note: The short supporters have a chance to get the sketch commission in even number times. If the long supporter gets the sketch commission in #1 on a priority basis and then writes the earliest comment in #2, it will be not accepted. (please wait for reset priolity)

SubscribeStar rewards in the future

Hello everyone.
I really appreciate the support you guys have given me over the months.

Now, I think there is a lack of rewards for A-Tier right now.
I've been doing the commission and polls for A-Tier, but those can't be done often in the time I have now.
Espessialy the commission, takes about two weeks per commission, so I can't reward many A-Tier subscribers.

This is the measure I have in mind

(1) Simpler requests for A-Tier (more frequent)
The illustration made from the poll(request form) that are currently being made are detailed and drawn in.
Some people may want to request "you draw this character for them, as a simple sketch is fine". That's a sketch that will take a day, and I think can draw one or two sketches you want in a week. I'll do this for free. Please help me enhance my drawing skill.

(2) Delete the trust period
I know this is very stressful for new subscribers. But I want to benefit long term supporters. If I turn off the trust period, new subscribers can subscribe to me, receive all of their rewards and then leave. To counter this, I have a third idea.

(3) Get the rewards for a limited time
When a new art is added, I set a time period during which the data for that you can be downloaded. For example, setting for one week.

(4) Sell rewards individually
This is for people who don't have access to SubscribeStar or can't pay with a credit card. I tried to use gumroad to do this, but unfortunately I can't use gumroad at the moment. As a way, I need to use shopify to create a shop site. I have no plans to use Patreon or Fanbox.
I also plan to sell the comics that I have published on E-Tier this way.

(5) Do the commissions also for non-subscribers
The commission are not done very often so I might as well do this for everyone.
It'll probably be after May next year that I'll put all these into practice.

Thanks to your supports, I'll have more time to spend on this activity next year. I'm sorry, but I hope you enjoy with the current way of updating until that day comes.
