Hello Free-Tier Patrons!
First off, thank you so much for following me everyone! Just knowing people enjoy my work is always a pleasure!
I've never really used the free section on Patreon at all, so I was surprised to see so many of you signed up on here even when I don't post anything to it. It makes me curious, what brings you guys to follow me here on the free tier? Do you just want a place to keep track of my work, are you waiting for me to make something in particular, some other reason? I'd love to hear from you guys and any feedback is greatly appreciated and helps me make a better experience for everyone!
(btw picture is the sfw pic from my Katara pics last month)

I might make #17bucksfnf katara Y'know what Krabs said : "Yer gonna make me so much money"
Well I was referred to you and I just wanted to see what you offer. If it looks interesting I just might go ahead and give it a shot to see how it really is
Thank you for the follow! I'm gonna see what kind of stuff I can post on the free/public section to give a better example of my work to new people now.
I know this might sound cheesy but I genuinely like your work both. SFW and NSFW I'm also trying to get a better job so I can actually afford to pay memberships more often
Hey I appreciate even just the follow, and thank you!
Just tracking your work. Planning on going paid tier, but cash is tight.
Thank you for the follow! It's a crazy time, always take care of yourself first!
Like others, was paid tier but downgraded temporarily (in my case, don’t have the second job teaching during the summer), but will re-up in the fall! I love your work!
Thank you! Join at your own pace, be sure to always take care of yourself first!
I was a paying tier, but took a break for a while but still wanted to keep track of where you are with your comics cuz I'll prolly up my tier when you start another one
Thank you for the support! I have changed up how I'm doing comics and won't regularly be doing fanart ones anymore, but if you're ever interested in checking out my Scrawled series I'll be here!
It wasn't always the case but patreon offers the free follower tier when you cancel a subscription. It's really nice for people who want to follow intermittently. There's a lot of artists I want to follow but if I subbed to everyone I'd be dropping hundreds a month. That said I think it's a missed opportunity to not post some content in the free section. When you sub to a new creator it tries to recommend other creators and if everything is behind the paywall you don't get any impression of the content behind it. the only way I'd sub to a creator like that is if I was directed here from another platform.
That's a good point, and I'll look into what I can post in this area for now on. Thank you!
I was a member with limited funds. I cycle between other artists, but have the free membership so I don't forget you/ don't have to look up your name again.
Thank you for keeping me on the radar! XD
I was subscribed for years beforehand. (Think around 2020 or so maybe? Dont really keep track.) But Always been a fan and now I just follow back up for a month when a comic starts up that grabs my intrest.
Thank you! Unfortunately I'm not doing as much fanart comics now but if you're ever interested in my Scrawled series feel free to take a look!
Probably like other just keeping in touch paid again and not sometimes because of reasons but looking forward to new things
Thank you!
I was a member for a while but had to prune my expenses when I didn't find a job right out of college so I am signed up in your free section and quite a few other artists so that I can keep track of you for when I have the funds to get involved again. Love your art keep making it :)
Thank you, hope things work out for you in your field!
keeping your stuff on my radar so when (if?) i get a steady job i'll be able to upgrade. and otherwise just showing that i enjoy your work even from a distance.
Always appreciated, thank you! Best of luck on the job hunt!
I do this to a lot of people I plan to be a patron to if I ever make enough money for it
I appreciate the follow then!
Wow
I was sub to you, but then my financial situation changed and I couldn't stay subbed.So I just stayed connected as a free member
I appreciate it, hope the financial situation gets better soon!
Same as a bunch of other people, I supported you until pretty recently when my financial situation changed, so now I'm here until I'm able to support you again
Thank you, hope things get better soon!
Making sure I can resub when I got money again, so you're easy to find
It's always appreciated, thank you!
There are a lot of artists who make stuff I at least liked in the past. Usually I'm in the free tier when an artist doesn't have any current projects I'm interested in but I expect they might again in the future. So if something new sounds interesting I can hop into a paid tier again.
Glad to be on the radar then, hope something piques your interest!
I have been a paid member in the past, but my financial situation changed, so I stay as a free sub to keep track of your work and occasionally resub to binge the comics.
I appreciate it, hope the financial situation improves soon!
I follow your for free to keep track of artists I follow and so I can remember to check you out later, and news ^^ Unfortunately, I don't have enough money to financially support all the artists I like. ^^'
Same here, Bruddah/Sistah
Updates and “SFW” pinups
SFW stuff is something I can definitely consider for this now.
Like others, I sub on and off. Happy to support when I can but there’s a lot of decisions per month haha
Totally understandable, especially with all the craziness going on now. I appreciate the support you've given!
As above. Customers sign up for the free, then when they have the expendable income they upgrade or downgrade based on that. Patreon users tend to have many subs like Twitch nowadays. Have to pick and choose you know.
I figured as much, glad to be on peoples radars, especially in these crazy times.
I follow your patreon for free to keep track of artists I follow and so I can remember to check you out later, maybe pitch in to see things in the future when I have more spare money c:
I appreciate the follow then, only support when you're comfortable with it!
Yo te sigo desde hace ya bastante tiempo atrás Y estuve como medio año en suscripción de paga (nivel 2 creo) Y me gustó mucho tu arte pero empecé a pasar por una situación económica un poco complicada y por el momento no he podido renovar la suscripción en cuanto todo mejore seguiré viendo tu contenido
¡Gracias por el apoyo pasado! Cuídate primero, solo apoya cuando te sientas cómodo. ¡Espero que tu situación financiera mejore pronto! (Y ojalá Google traduzca esto correctamente).
Mainly so I don't forget about your great art if twitter ever actually goes poof
Haha, I appreciate the follow then!
I had a paid account, but due to life events, I needed to start saving money. I want to go back to paid eventually...
Thank you for the support! Take care of yourself first, hope your situation improves soon!
Agreed with several others here: I wanted a place to follow you that's OUTSIDE of social media, just in case any of them went down...RIP Twitter, kinda.
Yeah, having a place outside there is definitely beneficial. I appreciate the follow then!
I had a paid account, stopped for bit, will probably get a paid account again sometime soon
Thank you for the follow and previous support!
You showed up as recommended and I’m just waiting for funds to free up to upgrade my tier lol. I liked what I saw and should be supporting you better within the month!
Thank you! Do so whenever's comfortable for you, make sure to take care of yourself first!
Amazing artwork as always 😍 And I do free to keep up with your work, and maybe you could do free polls or requests from time to time idk lol I'd love to see something new for us freebies, but keep up the good work! ^^
Thank you! Idk if I can post nsfw stuff on the free tier but posting some sfw stuff is something I can consider now.
I'm following in case I get rich some day and finally have money to spend on art. That and I kinda have a rotation that I go through where I'll subscribe to someone for like a month and then when that expires I'll subscribe to someone else for a while. Basically, I love your art and hope to spend some money here someday!
Thank you! Hope to see you soon then, always take care of yourself first!
It'd be kinda nice if it'd be similar to how you release stuff on your socials. Perhaps around the same time you can post them for free here as well.
Idk if I can post nsfw stuff on the free section, but I'll definitely consider posting sfw things.
I put in for the free membership so that it was easy for me to find you when I'm ready/able to subscribe. I enjoy your work and would like to eventually support it when I can.
Thank you! Only give what you're comfortable with and always take care of yourself first!
I just follow your Patreon so I can support you later with money cuz I like your work.
It's much appreciated!
I follow on the free tier because I like your art and if there’s a chance to see it in any capacity I’ll take it lol; also as a reminder to myself to upgrade to a higher tier whenever my financial situation allows 😅
Thank you! No prob, only give when you're comfortably able to!
I use it as a way to keep track of creators I like and hope one day I'll have the funds to upgrade my membership. I do enjoy free tidbits.
Exactly this. I don't generally expect to get much freebies, but following is a great way to remember what creators I'd want to subscribe to when I have the cash
Just here to keep track. Kind of like a fave-list to which I periodically come back to take a look at who I'm following and who I maybe give a pledge :)
I appreciate the follow then!
I'm a old patreon. I can't support you right now but with the free option i can keep a eye on your work waiting for better days
Thank you for your support and the follow! Hope things improve soon!
Amazing work
Grazie!
