New tiers added, some tiers grandfathered. Existing members will continue paying at the previous subscription costs, while in most cases seeing additional benefits. Read post for full details!
Hello Patreons!
It’s been a year and a half since I started this Patreon! How time flies! When I started, I remembered hoping that I’d be able to get enough support to be able to work on mods full time – I was working another design job back then, but having fun during my down time doing these jobs. Thankfully, you guys responded extremely positively – massive thank you to this entire community for helping me make my dream come true!
Within a year I was able to go from part time to full time creator for lewd mods… and I gotta say, this really is the best job ever. I mean, I’ve also had to work the longest hours I’ve ever worked in my life, but the rewards have been immense – meeting a wonderfully supportive community of people, working with excellent people, and growing a small business with a growing number of team members. I would’ve never expected any of this when I started, so big shout out to everyone that helped make this possible!
Over that time, I’ve tinkered a little bit with the tiers on this Patreon – but for the most part, those tiers are similar or the same as the Patreon I started back in December 2022. Over time, we’ve expanded our offerings, increased the frequency of the stuff we put out, and added more team members to help support the creation of all this wonderful content.
As a result, I’ve been meaning to revisit the way we do things on this Patreon for a while now, but having always been busy making those mods, I’ve been unable to dedicate the necessary time to do so… and finally I’ve found a little bubble of time in which to get this done!
Starting today, we’ll be revamping and changing the tiers on this Patreon.
For the most part, everyone that’s currently signed up will continue getting what they’re getting… or they’ll get even more stuff (more benefits) - all at the same price!
Instead, I’ve made a few new tiers going forwards, and closed down (stopped new signups, i.e. grandfathering) some older ones.
The intent is to help streamline the tiers, making their benefits clearer and more obvious, while eliminating the more confusing and unnecessary divisions between tier benefits.
Additionally, I’m structuring the Patreon and tiers in such a way that will allow us to better grow and adapt as the team grows and the games we make mods for changes.
Ultimately, the goal here is to make the benefits received by all members to be more consistent and have the cost be more reflective of what amount of content that they’ll receive.
So without further ado, here’s the changes to the current active tiers and the new tiers been introduced!
Lewd Basic > Lewd Galleries (Grandfathered)
Name changed from Lewd Basic to Lewd Galleries. Members will continue to be able to get access to the uncensored galleries we post up, as well as any bonus non-mod content that I post up from time to time. While infrequent, they’re a nice eyeful for sure!
(New Tier) Lewd Weekly (3*) $3
A new tier on this Patreon – this tier is the sampler pack, for those that want to check out my mods without committing too much to it. It also allows for access to the member's uncensored galleries!
I’ll release one mod per week onto this tier – just a random smattering of mods – could be a basic 4 outfit, could be a 5 multitoggle, could be a Star Rail mod, or even something from the Shiny Tier! Whatever the case is, this is true Gacha mode!
Lewd Access > Grandfathered
Lewd Access tier will be grandfathered; no new signups to this tier, but everyone already on it can stay on it. They’ll see a benefits upgrade as well in the interests of streamlining this Patreon. Their new benefits is equal to Lewd Genshin Access.
Lewd Deep Access > Lewd Genshin Access (4*) $10
Lewd Deep Access is renamed to Lewd Genshin Access. Essentially this encompasses all the Genshin mods that I make and commission/collaborate with. No more division between requested and collaborated, etc mods. Just all Genshin, all lewd, all the time.
(New Tier) Lewd Star Rail+More Access (4*) $10
This tier is for Star Rail mods and other game mods – although this Patreon will continue to primarily focus on Genshin, we’re also increasingly firm on supporting Star Rail, and as other games come around and into focus, this tier will offer support for those titles too. E.g. If Wuthering Waves or Elden Ring justify my time and effort to mod, those mods will be available on this tier.
Lewd Voter > Grandfathered
My long suffering Lewd Voters, though few in number are mighty in loyalty. These tier is also getting grandfathered – no new signups to this tier, instead voting rights will be distributed to relevant tiers (Genshin votes for members with Genshin access, Star Rail and other for Star Rail and other tiers). To commiserate the loss of voting tier, and to reward their loyalty and patience, the voting tier members will be upgraded to General Access benefits.
(New Tier) Lewd General Access (5*) $16 (7-Day Trial Access)
Want both the Genshin and Star Rail content that I make? This is the tier for it! Get the benefits of both Genshin Access and Star Rail+More Access, this means you don’t have to choose! Additionally, this will now become the new Trial Access tier – new members signing up for the first time will be able to experience all the highs and lows of this Patreon for free for 7 days!
Shiny Tier (Lewd Genshin Access + Shiny Tier) $18
Shiny Tier Access continues on as is with minor alterations. Shiny Tier is still the exclusive home of Shinya’s mod content. Her mods take both the stuff I’ve made, but also freely accessible content from around the internet and kitbashes them into new and Shiny mods with a fresh coat of paint (textures) – average 3+ mod exclusive releases per week! Of course, this is in addition to all the content from the Genshin Access mods tier.
Lewd All Access > Grandfathered
The All access tier will be turning into the Lewd Complete Access tier, with a small price adjustment – the rename will help provide better clarity to the purpose and intent of the tier. Members currently on this tier will continue at the current price ($21)
This tier gets all the benefits of Lewd Complete Access
Lewd Patrons > Grandfathered
My other long suffering tier of members… luckily there are only ever 20 of these members, but as many have found out after getting onto the tier, there’s not much difference practically speaking with this and the tier below. I occasionally fulfill requests, but not enough honestly. The only salve here is that the price difference between this tier and the next one down isn’t big, so having their requests even occasionally fulfilled is a nice bonus!
Nonetheless, I’ve decided that requests are a relic of the past now. At some point, I’ll bring back some sort of request system, but only once I get my back end content creation stuff sorted, so that the process is more streamlined, which will involve me coordinating with my team to achieve that.
This tier will receive the same benefits as Lewd Complete Access - but I'll continue responding to requests from members on this tier and continue fulfilling them at the current rate of 'occasionally'.
(New Tier) Lewd Complete Access (6*) $23
The final tier is the complete access tier for this patreon. As the name implies, you get access to all the mods I make, all the mods Shinya makes, and any other tertiary benefits we offer. This tier will see you get anywhere from 10 to 14 pieces of new mod content per week (at least at our current production schedule), so it’s full on and great value for lovers of Lewd!

sad, the Lewd Deep Access tier get downgraded while others get free benefits
LewdLad
No. You don't need to do anything. You'll continue to stay on your tier, and I will continue to occasionally fulfill requests when I am able. But if you do move off this tier - it won't be available again - the highest available tier will be 'Lewd Complete Access'.

i have a question Lad since right now im in the current high tier that exist for now can im still being on this tier or are you going to delete all of the tiers that exist now (including the one that i am now) and revamp everything into this new tiers and i will have to sub once again to this new highest tier?
