Yen to USD devalued over past year.
🕑 Added 2022-05-01 05:20:15 +0000 UTCOver the course of the pandemic, I've been making less money than I originally priced myself. The YEN's price has fallen from 0.0092 to 0.0076
My low prices went dramatically lower out of my control:
$2 -> $1.69
$5.50 -> $4.62
$12 -> $9.63
etc
And reminder these prices above are before Pixiv takes a cut
This current month I made $3,425 when I should have made $4,100 with my original pricing. I should have expected it using a foreign patron service, but I'm just a stupid artist ahh.
I set up a gumroad to sell my MEGA link on, as well as to sell multiple chapter PDF's of Violet's comic on as products to buy (I'll be selling chapter 1-3 american arc next week): https://artca9.gumroad.com/membership
I really really don't want to change pricing on here. As last time I looked into it everyone will be booted from the service since I'd have to delete the entire tier. Which I mean I'm glad it does that or i could just change it to $100 and scam everyone lmao. And if then yen goes back up, I'll be overcharging what I set it to compensate for the current conversion rate..
And I really don't want to tell you to move over to gumroad.... yet.... As my knowledge of other american sites just up and ban you for porn randomly. They want dirty money, but don' want to deal with dirty people. Sanitized
Either service you use. You get redirected to the same MEGA link. So it doesn't matter how you support me as a Patron. I'll talk about this in the future.
But I'm going to enjoy myself on short 2 day vacation first. And get back to CH 5, and filler chapters with Livinlovindude, Shyguy9, and my colorist Von580. :)

A smart person wouldn't be acceping money in a foreign currency during a world wide pandemic. You know, when that foreign currency can fluctuate.
“ They want dirty money, but don' want to deal with dirty people.” Lmao sooooo true! Thank you for keeping us up to date Artca9, btw your not that stupid but conversion of currencies is confusing. :)
