Nsfw bases / potential restructure of tiers / suggestions?
Added 2025-02-12 11:41:28 +0000 UTCGood morning everyone!
I hope you are all keeping well :3 I’m aware that I haven’t made any changes to the patreon in a long time, and there are areas where I can improve on and things I could even add. My tiers haven’t had any changes since the beginning and I think it needs a bit of a face lift in the near future. I also hear the call for NSFW bases, which I will discuss a bit more below in what I think of that.
💙Nsfw bases - I would like to possibly do 1 nsfw base a month, but I’m not sure on how to implement it. Should I add another tier that has ALL the content previously available and the nsfw base, or should I do a nsfw only tier where only my nsfw content is available? I’m leaning towards the former. I could raise the price of dirty chai tier to include the base, but I am aware that not everyone is subbed for the bases, so a price raise would be unfair to those people who don't want the base. Idk, I’m open to suggestions!
I also want to add that I am not a fetish artist. Any nsfw bases I include won’t be taboo fetishes so please don’t request these, they make me slightly uncomfy. They will either be nsfw pin ups, or a nsfw couple base here and there (don’t expect couple bases every month). Any characters will also have HUMAN genitalia.
Please also let me know if the nsfw bases are something you really want and would sub up for
💙Suggestions! Please let me know if there is anything else you would like to see from me, but please be aware depending in the perk it could warrant a tier increase. I will not do anything without informing members first and running a poll.
Also, I plan to share WIPs again, and the sfw pieces I do, so you can have a gallery here. Idk why I wasn’t doing that before, honestly that was dumb on my part. As for the wips, I finish art so quickly these days and I’m so busy I often forgot to share them to the point I forgot altogether D:

It is all about time and practice. I have started four years ago and now have my returning customers who support me.

2025-02-16 15:00:13 +0000 UTCI'm a little late, but I second the notion of adding a higher tier for a NSFW base. Totally not a biased answer from someone that can't draw 😅

2025-02-15 23:57:03 +0000 UTCI think raising the pricea little bit wouldn't be bad you would just have to be carefull about charging to much for it which i know could be difficult

2025-02-12 18:44:38 +0000 UTCi think an all inclusive is best ; even if it was a restructure for a more expensive tier that is the new nsfw too bases

2025-02-12 15:38:14 +0000 UTCSoooo I would definitely pay for a tier with extra bases/nsfw bases :) I think making a brand new teir would be a good idea :) I think my most expensive patreon membership is 20 ish dollars so I’d keep it around that price imo. I’d love seeing more male pin ups as there isn’t many base Artist that I’ve seen making them ( I know the female body is easier and more comfy to make ) I just have sooo many male characters that fit the femboy/kawaii soft core boy vibe , and your last base was soooo perfect :) sorry went on a tangent . You’re amazing chai!!

2025-02-12 15:03:27 +0000 UTCAnother tier for 20USD that includes the SFW bases and NSFW + the art you post, does sound like a good idea. However it really depends on you and what you want to work with. I think some people got the NSFW tier for a possibility of a chance of NSFW bases (Of course I know not everyone did) So, I personally think it’s just down to what you prefer to work with. You can always trial and error it and see how it runs with a NSFW base on the NSFW their you already have and then up the new tier if it works out ^.^

2025-02-12 13:19:09 +0000 UTCPersonally I'm on the tier that I am more to support you, I don't do anything with the bases other than personal art when it fits my ocs, so I might be an edge case. I'd like the NSFW bases that would work on my ocs, I think a higher tier with the extra base might make the most sense. It might price me out from a monthly sub to that new tier if it is too expensive, but I wouldn't mind paying extra on a month where the base fits my interests to get that base! I have a limited budget and like to support my favorite artists

2025-02-12 12:03:00 +0000 UTCAlright then you have my thoughts on that ^^ I am willing to pay a max of 25/30 USD each month for 3 bases as long as I get them sold... because all my art is trying to get ROI as good as possible

2025-02-12 11:59:19 +0000 UTCIt’d be a 3rd base!
Chai
2025-02-12 11:56:43 +0000 UTCOh and I highly like you are doing human genetalia. I am really struggling with NSFW in general lately and know that people cancel others above that topic so... Yeah.

2025-02-12 11:54:02 +0000 UTCSo for 11 USD (around 15 USD with taxes) we get 2 bases. According to that I would say 15 USD (around 20 USD with taxes) for NSFW bases. You could add up the dirty Chai to 20 USD (around 25 USD with taxes) because of all benefits together in one place. I dunno if I understand correctly you want to add in a third base peronth or just turn one of the bases NSFW...

2025-02-12 11:52:26 +0000 UTCIn your opinion what would be a fair price for the all inclusive base? :3

2025-02-12 11:45:55 +0000 UTCI would go for the adding method. All bases + NSFW so it is easier to manage. Because a NSFW Base only tier would mean you only got those bases
