Announcement: Page Status & More
🕑 Added 2025-07-16 08:13:36 +0000 UTC
I hope everyone is doing okay! Today I wanted to make a direct post and update about some good and bad stuff about the page so far, so lets get started first with THE GOOD!
So a lot of good stuff has happened during the change my art style!
Tier 1 Users have jumped tremendously! From 14 -> 45 members! (As of this post)
This is great, and it shows that the art I have been creating has a lot of love and users that like the new style.
Another great thing is my page reach has more than doubled what it had previously! (More than DOUBLE viewing/visiting users)
So my page has been successfully bringing in more viewership and slowly, yet surely more users! Polls being brought down to Tier 1 has had a positive impact and many users seem to really like this change, therefore it will be staying permanently in Tier 1~
So a few things I noticed were actually not so great unfortunately and i'd like to be 100% open and honest with some things and I do think the page is headed in the right direction currently and I am happy to create content for you guys.
So moving on with the bad.
Tier 1
After the art change last month, I lowered the tier price to try and make things more affordable and open the door for more people to enjoy the content. And in some ways — it worked! A lot of new people joined, and that support has been amazing.
But I also didn’t realize how much more Patreon’s fees eat into smaller pledges. That small drop in price actually led to a much bigger drop in take-home income than I expected — and with commissions and consistent art updates to deliver, it’s been harder to keep things balanced. If anything, with all these newer users I actually make a lot less than I did before the changes.
So I’ll be raising the base tier back to $5 in the upcoming days — just to keep things sustainable, fair, and reflective of the time and value going into everything. I do apologize for the constant changes, I just want to make the page at a balanced and good spot.
Commission Tier
Last month, I also lowered the commission price from $25 to $20 and dropped the listed image count from 90 down to 45. The idea was to make it more cost-friendly and accessible — but I’ve noticed that listing “45 images” made it seem like you’d be getting a lot less, and fewer people were interested in that tier from what I have seen.
What many didn’t realize is that nothing really changed. Even at the lower price and count, I was still delivering the same amount of content — often 90+ images per commission, just like before, so people always received more content, sometimes double the images even if they paid for 45/90.
That’s because I genuinely enjoy making these, and I always want to give more back to the community. I create a lot of variations, and instead of holding them back, I include them because I want you and everyone else to have more to enjoy.
So I’ll be returning the commission price to $25 and setting the listed MINIMUM to 70 images instead of 45, just to better reflect what you're actually getting — which is often way more than that anyway.
In short, I initially wanted to make things more cost friendly for everyone, but fees are really harsh for lower tiers and commission tier had slightly less engagement due to the lesser images.
90 images minimum as I had listed before sometimes brought a lot of workload onto me, especially when multiple commissions arrived at once. Putting it at 70 is a bit easier on my end but also a lot more than 45 since it seems rather small in general.
Thanks as always for your support! I’m super grateful for everyone here and I’ll keep doing my best to deliver art that feels worth it and thank you for sticking around~
Note: The price changes will be reverted within the upcoming days.
