Patreon Format Change (Original Content)
Added 2019-05-06 00:48:43 +0000 UTC
Starting this month, I'm going to make this Patreon my primary posting platform, where I will focus on original content, characters, comics, and long-form storytelling. Tiers will be condensed, and all Patreon-appropriate content will be uploaded, tagged, and separated into worksafe/NSFW categories based on your pledge. Moving forward, time lapse videos will be published for most content from 2018 onward, but never comic pages. PSDs will be made available for all images that have more detailed rendering than just flat colors. All categories that are not permissible by Patreon will not be hosted, though such alternative artworks may be found on Pixiv, albeit censored. There's not much I can do about that.
The comic I will be working on will be primarily SFW, but will include serious violence and some sexual themes. Explicit adult content in addition to the story may occur, but that will only be available to a separate pledge tier, and its occlusion will not affect the comic in any way, should you choose not to view it.
In addition to this comic, I will continue to host standalone illustrations as I always have. Here are the new tiers I am considering:
$2 - Access to all SFW images and .PSD files for art with rendered color (good for keeping up with the comic)
$3 - Access to all SFW/NSFW images and .PSD files
$4 - Access to all SFW content + time lapse videos
$5 - Access to all SFW/NSFW content + time lapse videos
The permissions for all previous posts will remain the same, until I complete uploading all my works directly to this patreon. Afterwards, all posts before this one will be deleted, to be replaced by the newly uploaded, tagged, and tier-sorted artwork.
The attached image is the extent of what I will consider "SFW". It will be equivalent to seinen, otherwise known as comics for the college-age/young adult demographic.
Do these tiers feel fair? Please voice any comments or questions by replying to this post. I will also reiterate this post with future plans for the dropbox, once the big upload is complete.

thank you for understanding, and I hope the addition of PSDs to this tier helps
2019-05-06 20:08:10 +0000 UTCI have been going off word-of-mouth, but from what I perceive, it's generally congruent with twitter's changes. I haven't been able to find any specific statements, but I will abide by the perceived guidelines, to be as safe as possible.
2019-05-06 19:10:38 +0000 UTCArt that doesn't go here belongs on the Pixiv, and yes, Pixiv requires censorship. In the future, I'd like to find a tertiary solution for any loose pieces, and when I do, I will try to make it as comprehensive to navigate my art as possible. Once all my uploading is complete, Pixiv's posts for whatever art you're looking for should have the appropriate information.
2019-05-06 19:02:37 +0000 UTCAm I understanding this correctly? No uncensored versions anywhere?
2019-05-06 14:40:46 +0000 UTCHave there been changes to what is considered Patreon-appropriate? If so, is there somewhere that I could read about the changes? Or is there some artwork you haven't already uploaded here that wouldn't have been considered Patreon-appropriate?

2019-05-06 04:39:50 +0000 UTCAll the tiers look good! Happy to support ya and everything you put out. I guess my only concern would be the loss of some high-res/uncensored stuff that can't be hosted here anymore, but I understand there are strict restrictions on stuff like that so it can't be helped. At any rate, best of luck to you going forward - I hope you are able to keep putting out stuff you enjoy making and find a good flow with your comic + patreon 👍

2019-05-06 01:50:25 +0000 UTCI can pay a dollar more for NSFW, I suppose, that’s not too much to ask. You do what you want, and I’ll throw money at it.

2019-05-06 01:33:57 +0000 UTCSeems fair to me. I'm glad you're at a point where you can pursue your original works. I look forward to it!
2019-05-06 01:29:06 +0000 UTCThanks for the support. It would make me happy to tell stories.
2019-05-06 01:27:28 +0000 UTCDo what you want, its better when people are making original work. You'll still get my shekels.
