A clarification: what do you consider HD? Was your upload of "Kael's Vista" HD, or merely a sizable file? And is the Hoarder pack available as a one-time purchase, or only with a monthly contribution? (Or both - a monthly pack with a monthly contribution, and a comprehensive portfolio with a larger one-time purchase?)

You seem to be following the generally-accepted pattern: don't stop posting on FA, and don't post only censored versions, but do offer something extra to donors. If the Boston Symphony Orchestra can work that way, why not you?

Good luck with the new platform. If I won the lottery, I'd love to just make grants to artists, to allow them to work entirely on their art (if that was their desire) without the necessity of having to actually work at a mundane job. Not in my future, I'm afraid.

Oh well I'm planning to make something as rewards in future though i don't know how they work yet or if I'll be able to keep up the pace next to regular commissions. We'll have to see.

I can confirm that i am not going to stop uploading to anywhere else. They will still be uploaded as is, but the higher resolution versions will be there on Patreon.

I don't agree with censored images, neither will i do them. There might be some clean/lewd versions in the future, however not as frequent yet, but do plan to make some.

Delighted to hear your plans. It's hard to thread the needle - to generate needed revenue from your work without angering your supporters; no one is entitled to free art, as others have pointed out, but it is distressing when an artist suddenly throws up a hard paywall and alienates all the fans whose support allowed them to get where they are. It's always nice when a great artist turns out also to be a kind person!

I've been thinking about commissioning you myself; I just have to get off my rear and look into it more formally. You were one of the first artists I really liked when I discovered the Fandom, and you've never disappointed. Keep up the great work - on whatever platforms you choose.

Well if I want money, I will just sit my ass down to my desk and work for it. Patreon should be just what it is meant to be: Tip jar + and rewarding place. I don't want to half-ass my supporters, but there will be disappointed people anyway so I am going to prepare for that too.

Does this mean that you will stop uploading pictures larger than furaffinity's default outdated 1280x1280 size?

Nope. I will still upload things here as before. No size changes. Pictures above 3K or so will be available as bonus in HD Hoarder pack which is 5 USD. All of thrm available. Take as many as you can, and they're there!

that wairu looks so adorable!
