as you may know PP and patreon are not working in russia anymore. ofc big thanks to our government - they’re truly doing their best at making life here impossible. but naruto taught us not to give up soo…
i’ve created page on boostywhere you can support me by:
one-time donations!
or by subscribing to monthly payments (and you’ll receive access to sketches, speedpaints and whatever else my poor brain will come up with, that im not gonna post anywhere else!)
don’t worry - boosty works perfectly fine with paypal and don’t require registration for one time-donations. and you can sign up through google if you’re lazy little bun like me :р
i’ll of course continue to post here in my usual i-have-no-concept-of-time schedule. super-duper-max-lvl thank you for all the support you’ve already sent me here!! your asks leave me in tears every time ahhh!! ˢᵒᵇ(ᵕ̣̣̣̣̣ ہ ᵕ̣̣̣̣̣̣ ✿)ˢᵒᵇ
finally got to visit this critter i finished a while ago for the local art museum! its also up for auction through next month to support the museum! it was a fun piece to work on and a good excuse to dress up for the opening :^)
reminder that this piece is available to bid on until early may, proceeds go to support my town’s local art museum ✨
Commissions are OPEN! An important change in payment process: due to PayPal blocking all of russian accounts, I can no longer work through it. Unfortunately it means there’s no invoices and a different website I can process payments through. All payments go through my page on Boosty, through a donation pool. The payments can be made through your PayPal account or a bank card! (it’ll be in roubles. I tell you the price in $ and in ₽ in current PayPal exchange rate, fees on exchange may apply. If an instruction or any help will be needed - I’ll provide an instruction with screenshots. The platform is safe and is used by many artists, who has been dropped and left out by PayPal or Patreon). I’ll take up to three slots. If you’re interested - feel free to message me here! If you can help to spread the information by sharing this post, or know someone who might be interested in an art piece - let them know! All help is greatly appreciated!
So, this is my Boosty page. Boosty is like an analogue to Patreon, but unlike Patreon - I still can get paid through Boosty. I’ll use this page as means to have donations or to let people pay for commissions! (For now - this is kind of the only thing that works and allows people to transfer money, without too many problems. It is less convenient, compared to PayPal. But it is working, unlike PayPal. Once PayPal comes back (if it comes back to work in Russia), I’ll go back to using PayPal for commissions.)
How does Boosty works? Well, like Patreon - there are a couple of tiers, which cost from around 1$ to 3$ for a monthly access to any goods for that tier. (The cost of the tiers are in roubles, so don’t get scared by a three-digit number }X )) There’s also a donation pool, which will be used for commissions mostly. But, people still can donate whatever amount they want, if they want to }: )
What I will post there? Well, I’ll post there whatever sketches, work in progress, fanarts, comic storyboards with text, finished artworks in a good scale, etc. etc… You will be able to access it ahead of times, before I eventually post some of the materials here or on twitter. So, this is more of a voluntarily donations, rather than a paywall to have a look at new stuff…I wouldn’t want to keep people away from whatever I draw\create. So, don’t worry! If you don’t want to or can’t pay for a tier - you can just wait it out, and the art will be posted here too }X) But, some things will stay only there (like storyboards, some raunchy pictures and stuff like that), just cuz I’m not ready to share it…
Well, anyway… That’s kind of it }: ) Check out the page and tiers, if you want to (for now there’s not that much of a content, but I have some things to post, so… yeah)). Thank you!
Heyo, so i finally made a Boosty account! Its pretty much gonna be a second P.atreon, with options to d.onate or a monthly s.ubscription, that is more direct… because i cant get m.oney from my P.atreon for now. And i can use it for c.ommissions! (i do have a p.aypal but this option for people will be open if they don’t mind, because if i use p.aypal, its pretty much 15%+ fee, cause i’ll need to double transfer it…). The only problem with it, its in r.ubles so to p.ay people have to convert the m.oney and p.ay (they are working on accepting u.sd!). I’m not too sure how to handle the monthly s.ubscriptions for now, if it should be just a copy pasta from P.atreon or not (most likely). And i’ll be posting everything that is already on P.atreon biweekly.
So if you would like to d.onate or s.ub to support me! TOP right you can switch the language if its not in English by default.
Reblogs are highly appreciated too, (i’ll prob make a cleaner post for that though there is just too much text xD). But i am pretty much broke now, the situation in the world made its impossible for me to make m.oney and i was stupid enough to try to sit out and wait… and i cant believe its still going after 3 months… I’ll be honest, I really want to avoid working for this country, so any supportorc.ommissions are greatly appreciated <3
I would like to thank everyone who reblogs and likes my art too! Tumblr has been so kind to me and helps motivating me to keep working on art, even if i so rarely post here these days. ( Twitter is were i post more stuff that is art, zine and personal now). The twitter algorithm is a mystery to me, well not gonna lie tumblr algorithm as well haha
Hope every have a nice day! And thank you for reading all this Crow_
A guide to Boosty - the new payment method which allows you to pay the artists from Russia, Belarus and other countries where PayPal is inacessible. It has all the necessary info on the platform, FAQ and a small tutorial on how to pay for your commissions via Boosty.
In the light of a few unfortunate circumstances (Losing a job, several medical exams and a rapid shortage of any and all Testosterone based medications) - | am in a dire situation to ask for some extra commissions to be able to buy another few months worth of T.(At least for the rest of the Summer)
If you can’t just take a commission - Please, consider donating a bit! That too will help a whole lot!
