Some serious thought about removing Tier 2 (Patreon)
Content
It's been half a year since I started the Patreon project and I've been giving it my all effort and got so much supports from you guys, but I have to say before I have reached this point, I was so nervous about how the others and the non-supporters would think of me.
This could be new to someone but all my works done here are meant to be NSFW or at least major fanservices, but to be able to post them arts on some other sites with strong policy, (Deviantart for example) I need to put some censorship on and ended up having to make all the "safe versions" for every single one of them.
This led to more work, as I have to make the nude/nsfw versions first which requires me to draw the full nudity most of the time, then make the clothing layers to cover up and try to get them finished images looking not so lewd as known as them safe versions to be able to post them on websites. This is always a pain since it consumes extra big amount of time, around 50% more time spent for each one I must say, plus it limits the posing and concept of each images to very few choices. I feel like I couldn't even get my erotic ideas to work for half the potential.
But since I've grown some supports thanks to you guys, I feel like I could care less for the outside world and lean towards more over the nsfw train I'm planning to get on. I'm a fanservice/hentai artist after all :)
I'm considering removing Tier 2 ($5) and just make most the rewards NSFW friendly without having to make the safe versions for safe tier supporters since 80% of you guys are supporting the NSFW Tier (Tier 3, $10) anyway.
I will still crop the images or throw in some mosaic/white box censorship to announce whenever a new work is done. The supporters will get the uncensored/uncropped images as rewards as usual.
This would lead to allowing me to gain more working time to start the hentai comic project I long for, or possibly an additional pieces of reward for each month. I promise that when this starts, you guys can look forward to seeing more erotic stuffs on my Patreon.
I can't say it's a permanent change though. I will try if it works well for probably a couple months. If it doesn't, then back to the old method. Will start this soon. Not sure if I will start right away on February, or may be March.
Thank you again for all the supports. You guys are awesome. Will try my best not to disappoint any of you.
