Opened Pixiv Fanbox

Hello everyone!

I learned a few days ago that many of my non-nsfw artworks  don't fit well with the guidelines of Patreon and was asked to delete those from here or I will be suspended.

This ultimately means that I would have to alter my artistic freedom for any future personal work and I would have to change the way I approach creating art with a free mind. This would ultimately affect all of my work, regardless if it's conform to the rules or not.

In that sense I decided to create a Pixiv Fanbox so I can continue doing this thing with a free mindset.

This all means that this month's rewards will be available over at Fanbox  so I don't have to remove things I already promised and have people pay for it. For now I will pause my Patreon activity.

Thank you everyone for the amazing support so far and sorry for the inconvenience!

( Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to post a link, but it's easy to find.)

What a shame.... Tim is the only reason I'm using Patreon , I'm more than happy to switch to fanbox , now I don't have to receive bills from different company to support my favorite artists , see you at fanbox :)

You don't necessarily have to unsubscribe here since it only charges you money when I make a "charge-post", but you have to subscribe at Fanbox if you want to get the next rewards. I'm not sure yet, if I'll use Patreon for something else again, but I hope Fanbox will work out just as well as Patreon does for everyone, because there I can post all content. Sorry for the trouble.

So to receive your regular rewards, we'll need to turn off our subscription here and subscribe at Pixiv fanbox?

Thank you for all your support too! Hope to see you there!

You don't have to rush, on Fanbox you'll have access to older rewards since I post them on the site/timeline.

Been holding off doing fanbox but you've convinced me to start supporting on there. Thanks for your hard work!

Well patreon was fun while it lasted. at least for content like this it is going to die.

Damn, Patreon now is becoming a garbage. Glad we still have Fanbox and other Japanese websites like Fantia.

This month is P right? So I should immediately switch to fanbox ASAP?

Thank you very much, I hope it's not too much of a hassle. I really appreciate your long time support!

Yeah, it's a bit of a downer, but of course Patreon is pretty much free to create rules and enforce them however they want since it's their platform in the end. But there are alternatives, so it isn't all too bad.

Ok. See you at Pixiv Fanbox then. 🙂

I like the move. I also noticed many other artists I support are having same issue with Patreon, ultimately forcing them to create artwork that is different from their initial design.

Shame about what Patreon is doing to its userbase
