Log inAbout The Situation
My Patreon was removed suddenly, and without warning.
They will not be reinstating my account. You can still login to my website with Patreon, for now, but you might not be able to access any paid content. You should be getting a refund if your payment was made after April 9th, as any payments after that were still left uncollected, unless you paid with Apple, which was definitely refunded. If your payment was made before then, you might retain access until your membership ends.
I am making the decision going forward to age up all my characters.
I have been spending the time updating my website to reflect the new age ranges for each character. I will be giving each of them a base size that is more "adult" in proportions, but still skinny and short going forward in animations.
I also just decided to change the timetable so that their natural growth after infection isn't gradual over 12 years, with year 0 being the giant men incident and year 12 being current age, but rather rapidly over maybe a year or so, not including their typical triggered growths with reversion. This won't be reflected anywhere yet, as I just decided this April 26th, while editing this post.
These are just some of my most used characters that had a "child" version:

These are just some of my most used characters that had a "child" version:
- Alek is now Age 20 and was Infected Age 18 by Giant Men.
- Connor is now Age 24 and was Infected Age 23 by Alek.
- Jordan is now Age 18 and was Infected Age 18 by Alek.
- Julien is now Age 20 and was Infected Age 18 by Giant Men.
- Gordon is an anomaly, no way to explain that away.
These are some other characters:
- Shane is now Age 30 and was Infected Age 30 by Alek.
- Bentley is now age 26 and was Infected Age 25 by Alek.
- Kyle is now Age 34 and was Infected Age 34 by Roman.
- Roman is now Age 26 and was Infected Age 25 by Alek.
- Yonni is now Age 31 and was Infected Age 30 by Alek.
- Joy/Roy is now age 26 and was Infected Age 25 by Yonni.
As you can see, I have opened a Subscribestar.
I have been approved to upload content, and accept payments. You can already login to my website with Subscribestar, and it should even work already to show you the correct content based on the tier you pay for. I will monitor any issues as I see them, as the integration is slightly different from Patreon.

Speaking of tiers, my membership options have changed.
I was actually about to post about this on Patreon, with a draft all ready to go, but alas, it is gone. I will try to go over the same stuff here the best I can from memory.
I will no longer be releasing any videos for free.
They will remain paid only. This means Alek Grows In City will not be going free, nor any videos that came after that. I might decide to make one or two videos free here or there, such as Quickies, but we will see.
I recently made all images from 2024 on my website free.
I will do the same thing next year for 2025, so that means all paid images from this year will remain paid until then too.
Let's go over my new Tiers:
$5 - Supporter Tier
Previously, the Supporter Tier was $4 and did not give access to each month's video or its teasers. This tier is now combining the available options from the previous Supporter Tier and Lustful Tier. Basically, this is the tier everyone should be choosing.

- Access to Exclusive Images
- Access to Exclusive Videos
- Access to each month's new Exclusive Video's Teasers
- Access to each month's new Exclusive Video
- Access to any polls
Subscribestar does not have a community chat like Patreon, so if there is a demand, I might make a Discord to replace that benefit. I want to note that I specifically say "video" now instead of "animation". I sometimes release visual stories, and those aren't animations, so I will be transparent on the first of each month which type of video I am working on with a teaser.
$10 - Lustful Tier
Previously, this was $8, and was the tier required to access videos. That's no longer the case, as this has taken the features from Gooner Tier instead, minus the chat, since that isn't available. If I manage to finish a video before the end of the month, this tier gets to see it right away. That's the only benefit currently.
- Same benefits as Supporter Tier
- Access to each month's new Exclusive Video's Teasers as they are made
- Access to each month's new Exclusive Video as it is completed
- More benefits to be decided
$20 - Gooner Tier
This tier is brand new. It doesn't give you any benefits, currently, and is just to support me more. I don't know if anyone will actually pay for this tier, but I figure I might as well make it available in the off chance someone really wants to support me.
- Same benefits as Supporter and Lustful Tier
- This tier just supports me more and is completely optional
I was going to have "Gooner Chat" in this tier, but since there's no chat here, I can't. If you'd be interested in having a Discord to replace that, with a section just for Gooner Tier, please let me know. I enjoyed sharing updates to Gooner Tier, and I don't want to share it via my website or posts... it doesn't feel right.
Ending Thoughts
I want to thank everyone that has ever supported me, and anyone who manages to find their way to this new payment portal, and pays for my content. I really appreciate all that I have been able to do and the assistance the extra money has had in my life. I never thought I could turn this hobby into such a "side hustle"... that has been helping me out financially.
I have been dreaming of making high quality animations that would allow me to quit my day job, pay off my debt's, buy a $3k+ laptop with 16GB Vram (I only have 4 GB currently) so that I can make animations faster and with more characters, and to get an apartment so that I could stream my process.
I am a dreamer, and this Patreon thing has been a huge hinderance on my goals, but I am hopeful that going forward, I can forge a new path here on Subscribestar.
If you have any questions, please ask me.
