That's right, I have launched a Subscribestar!
Or rather, its been around for sometime but only now I'm announcing it to everyone. XD
Like Patreon and Fanbox, this will have exclusive content and overtime, all my previous works over the years. Either way you chose to support me and my art will help in a big way!
I think a Q+A would best explain the reasons why and what the best options are.
Why are you launching a Subscribestar?
Its been in the works for awhile now and just something I've not gotten back to but recently, with actions made by Patreon in the last few months and even Gumroad dropping the nuke on NSFW creators just last week, it only speeded up the process.
Like Fanbox, it will serve as an alternative to Patreon in-case anything were to happen to my gallery or you just generally if don't want to support Patreon.
What will be on the Subscribestar?
Same day content as Patreon and Fanbox. I also want to bring over Classic Content there in batches for an exclusive weekly day, as well as add more Classic Content to Fanbox.
As Patreon is cracking down on some fetishes, some art might be only posted on the Fanbox and Subscribestar.
Will content be in Zip Folders?
There will be no Zip Folders on Subscribestar, same with Fanbox.
Could change depending on factors but right now, nada folders.
Will there be Reward Tiers on Subscribestar?
A few but there will be limited as I have a bit of a backlog on Rewards on Patreon, which will be eliminated in the next month or so, bar anything happening IRL.
If you see a tier that's full, you can request me to open another slot and I'll see if its manageable.
Fanbox will see a few limited Reward Tiers added as well.
Why are the prices slightly higher on Subscribestar?
Mainly because of how Subscribestar handles payouts in that you can only withdraw a minimum of $150 each time.
I have avoided raising the price of tiers on Patreon even when times have gotten tough over the nearly 10 years the page has been around as I know its also been hard for those during the pandemic and cost of living.
If the Subscriberstar gets popular enough to cover the $150 goal every month, I will consider lowering the tiers to match the Patreon but we're just starting up the page, so it might be awhile.
Are you leaving Patreon?
No, but that's entirely up to Patreon.
Should I switch from Patreon/Fanbox?
Up to you, content will mostly be the same among the three galleries.
Patreon will be cheaper atm, but requires passwords Zip Folders to see the art/fanfics. Future on the site is a big unknown.
Fanbox has no Zip Folders and allows more fetishes, however it does require censorship of the lower regions.
Subscribestar allows much more than the two. Payments methods are a bit more limited, but at the same time its the reason many artists are in this situation.
Does Subcribestar offer access to you Discord channel?
Yes, all tiers do.
What about Deviantart Subscriptions?
That has had limited reach and features TBH and I've only kept it on as a way you can support me if you wish.
I have stated in the past if the Deviantart Subs reach a fresh hold like 10 subscribers or maybe $20-50 a month, I would resume updates there but right now, its not viable.
If you have anymore questions, be sure to lave them in the comments below and I'll add it to the Q+A.
