Important Announcement!

Hey everyone! This is an important announcement regarding everyone who's subscribed right now.

For the past while, I've had SubscribeStar's System pulling in people's support the day they subscribe and then bill them on that day per month ever since. I did this business model at first as this account has been mainly been working as support to what was a hobby/side job rather than a main source of income.

However, I am slowly transitioning into art becoming my full time job rather than just something I'm doing on the side. I'm going to need the money I make here to go into funding for rent and other financial necessities, and the way I receive the money currently is too sporadic unfortunately.

This website requires a certain amount be made per month before I'm able to request a payout. So say I need 150 dollars per month, and I get 145 of that mostly in the beginning of the month, I can't request a payout until I get the last 5 dollars I need. And let's say I wouldn't get that last 5 until the end of the month.

Now that I have all of you lovely people here and supporting me, I feel confident I can really turn this around and turn it into a source of income that can support me and my fiance, so I need the income coming in consistently on one day so I can plan ahead right for financial endeavors.

That all being said, why this announcement is being made!

I am going to be switching my model from getting payment the day that you pledge and then that be the day it gets the money onward, to you pay the day you sign up but then it asks for payment on the first of the month then onward, just like Patreon.

This model will just be a lot better in helping me get the money I need to support myself and to be able to plan content better for all of you and how best to provide it.

I hope you all are understanding in this switch up! It's going to be taking effect shortly after I post this. I don't believe it should ask any money out of anyone currently, and I don't know how exactly it'll work through-out this month once I switch it, but I promise the transition should be the only rocky aspect to it and then it'll all work out after.

Thanks for hearing me out! Expect new and exciting things to come! (Hint: Discord may finally be an element in this whole thing ;3)

Hey everyone, I apologize again for not providing that second pic as promised. For some reason, Subscribe Star is giving me trouble on my end with being able to post pictures. I reached out to the staff to help me fix whatever’s going on. I appreciate all of your patience while I try to figure it out. Thank you!

New Tier Update!

Hey aquanaughts and seastars! It's near the end of the year, so I wanted to give an update on the new subscriber tiers I had promised!

Because the holidays made things get busy, I wasn't able to roll them out this year like I wanted to, and for that I apologize! However, I'm hoping to roll these out in January, or at the very least the beginning of February. (Me and my now fiancé are still trying to move out so this is complicating a lot of things. >3<) In the meantime, lemme show y'all what I have in mind!

These perks are subject to change, but this is what I have in mind right now:

10 Dollar Tier: Get new sketch posts every Friday and Sunday! Fintastic Friday and Suffocating Sunday.

15 Dollar Tier: Vote on a poll once a month to influence a unique piece of artwork from me that you'll all gain first access to! May be posted to other social medias a few months after creation, but you'll get to see it here first! If you subscribe to this one you'd get the 10 dollar perks as well.

30 Dollar Tier: Guaranteed once a month traditional sketch commission slots! (About 3 I'm thinking for now!) These will be a base 1 character sketch with minimal backgrounds. A bit of a price difference from normal pricing, but guaranteed to happen if you're a bit too slow for when official commissions pop up. Subscribing to this one gets you the other perks as well.

125 Dollar Tier: 1 guaranteed fully colored/shaded commission. Will include 1-2 characters, background, and waiting time is 1-3 months for completion. This one will be limited to one person. You only pay once until the commission is done (so no worries I wouldn't charge you 125 dollars every month it wasn't completed LOL!) and that's all! I'm pretty sure I can do that here, so I'll look into it before I promise it or anything. A very good way to get a fully done commission from me without missing out on official commissions. Only slightly pricier than base price to include extra characters and background and also the guarantee. You also get all the perks besides the 30 dollar sketch commissions.

Let me know what you guys think! I'm pretty excited about this stuff, and I'm still open to other ideas on what y'all may want to see from me, so I appreciate any and all feedback! w^

New Subscribestar Goal!

Hello everyone! Just wanted to let you all know that there's a brand new money goal we're working towards!

Thankfully with all of your support, we're already one step of the way there! With my new subscribe tiers coming out soon as well, I have confidence we'll reach this goal!

But to give a bit more detail into it, me and my boyfriend have been really wanting to move out of our current apartment. It's not the worst place in the world to live, but we've had so many problems with it that has made some things difficult.

We've had laundry stolen from us at the complex's laundromat, we see at least 1 cockroach every single day (the worst amount we've seen is 50 in one day. It was awful.), it's very puny not even having more than 300 square feet, the lights in our bathroom have faulty wiring, and worst of all, I've been followed around by creepy men before when coming home.

It would mean the world to me if y'all could help me reach this goal monthly. 500 a month would be maybe even more than enough to cover any new rent costs of wherever we moved. We just want at least a new 1 bedroom apartment, so that I could get the space we need to get me a desk. My current "set up" if you can even call it that, is our bed. I have to keep my tablet on my lap and after doing art, my back is killing me. Unfortunately we just, do not have the room (or the money) to fix this problem. I know it'll only get worse if I let it persist.

TL;DR: The new goal is working towards helping me get a new apartment and it would mean everything to me if y'all could help me get there! Thank you! w^
