Future Plans and new Commission Prices
🕑 Added 2018-11-04 19:56:48 +0000 UTC I've hesitated a lot before making this journal, but it was long overdue.If you follow me on Twitter, you'll now I've been planning quite a few things and I've been encouraged by more and more people to finally increase my prices to better balance my workload, have more time to push forward personal projects and also to ensure that I can really turn this side of my life in a sort of main job that will help me through life.
This journal will be used to explain you not only the price changes, but also future plans regarding patreon, my own projects and commissions. I've always felt bad that, because of real life and Patreon needing most of my time, I've never been able to accept the offers of people who were more than eager to commission me, so through the next months and especially next year, I'll slowly gear things up in a way that I'll be able to make everything co-exist in a balanced manner.
This is why this journal is split in different sections, so I suggest you to, please, read through them all to keep yourself up to date on what I plan to do in the near future.
Let's kick this off, shall we ? :3
------------------------------- NEW COMMISSION PRICES -----------------------------------
I've been so hesitant to do this for a very long time, especially because I didn't know if I deserved to ask people for more money for what I consider my silly doodles, but...Apparently there's the demand for it ? <w<; Plus I've been noted that if I want to take this job seriously, I do need to make a stable income. Without further ado, here are the new prices:
- Rough Sketch - 15$ (single character, additional character 15$)
- Cleaned up Sketch - 35$ (single character, additional character 20$)
- Short Sketched Comic - 50$ (3 Panels, maximum 2 characters, mini Panel 15$)
- Sketched Comic Page - 80$ (6 Panels, maximum 2 characters per panel, extra Panel 15$)
- Inked Pic - 75$
- Short Inked Comic - 100$
- Inked Comic Page - 200$
--EXTRAS--
- Greyscale - 15$
- Flat Colors - 20$
- Full Shading - 50$
- Additional Character - 15$
- Additional Comic Panel - 20$
Please, make sure to leave feedback, negative or positive as it may be! Also, REALLY IMPORTANT, for whoever thinks the prices may be too steep for them...Don't worry! I got some plans regarding that, which I can't reveal yet, but please, trust me that I won't forget about you! Just stay tuned!
Keep in mind that I'm not open for commissions just yet, I'm merely listing the prices for now!
-------------------------------- PATREON REWARDS IN 2019 ----------------------------------
Of course, since Commission prices raised, this means Patreon slots will be influenced as well. The new Patreon slots will be more limited, as my goal is to keep my income stable while also making sure I have more time to pursue personal projects and be able to accept commissions outside of the patreon sphere! Those slots will replace the old ones on January 2019:
- TIER 1: Single Cleaned up Sketch (Greyscaled) - 50$ - 6 slots will be available
- TIER 2: Short Sketched Comic (Greyscaled) - 65$ - 3 slots will be available
- TIER 3: Single Inked Pic (Greyscaled) - 90$ - 3 slots will be available
- TIER 3: Short Inked Comic (Greyscaled) - 100$ - 2 slots will be available
- TIER 4: Full Inked Comic Page (Greyscaled) - 200$ - 2 slots will be available
Again, those lots will go into effect starting from January 2019, so all current patrons will have some time to adjust and decide what to do. Please, do not feel in any way forced to stick with your current slot despite the increased price, I don't want you to get into troubles just because of me, ok ? :3
----------------------TEAM LITTLE GULP: THIRD TIME'S THE CHARM ? --------------------
If everything goes according to plans, 2019 will be a year in which I'll be able to be way more versatile with my time, which will also mean I'll be able to offer you all more personal ideas, but also be able to finally plan and reboot the Team Little Gulp project.
I've been wanting to do a Pokemon Vore related project for a long while now and I think this is the perfect chance to give it a serious shot. The comic will try to balance a decent story with some light-hearted humor and vore shenanigans, so I hope you all will look forward to Sparky's adventures in this shamelessly vorish Pokemon world :3
The comic will NOT be a Patreon exclusive, but the pages will be uploaded to Patreon first and to other galleries later, so if you want to take early peeks at it in the near future, please consider tipping me on Patreon, I promise I won't disappoint you or hide the comic behind paywalls!
More on this project soon!
----------------------------------------
I guess that's all I had to say for now. If you got any comment, question, advice, criticism or complaint, please, I encourage you to come forward. This is a very delicate and anxious moment for me. it's a big step in so many ways and I wanna make sure I do it right, as I want the best artist I can be, as person and content creator. I may be a silly chu who works on niche fetish art, but heck, you've been all so incredibly supportive and I want to make sure I won't disappoint you...
As I wouldn't even be here without you all <3

Understandable. Your skill is great, and I love your art style. A raise in prices is well understood.
