Edit March 12th 2024: Giveaways changed from Weekly to Monthly, more info here
Hi, I’m Tapirclip. I’m a tapir who makes otaku media. My light novel “PolyMonFur: How to be Polyamorous in a World of Monsters and Furries” is currently serialized with LumeBento.
I migrated into South America during the Pleistocene epoch. Nowadays, I alternate between making my light novel, independent manga, and furry art. This Substack gives behind-the-scenes and updates for my different projects.
And every Tuesday, I'm running a new art giveaway.
Two reasons why:
I'm hoping to get more eyes on my work, and eventually hit my $350/month goal on Substack.
I want to connect better with you, the awesome readers of this newsletter. Drawing your personalized requests is a way to get to know everyone better, without things getting too touchy-feely.
Subscribe and check your inbox every Tuesday for my newest post. Read through to the end because that's where you'll find details on that weeks giveaway.
These giveaways will be different things to either drive engagement, subscribers, or encourage more people to go paid.
Here’s some examples of previous art I’ve given away:
Some (hypothetical!) examples of my weekly giveaways (to be updated with real examples once this gets rolling):
If we can get 2 new paid subscribers by next week, requests will open for everyone for 12 hours
First 4 people to comment get a request
First 30 people to like/comment get a free request; if we can get 30 in 2 hours I’ll bump it up to 60 people
You get the idea- engagement games that reward your participation. They’ll be at the end of every post, so make sure to read all the way through.
Select bonus giveaways will guarantee art for everyone on the paid tier if the “win” conditions are met. Even in these circumstances, there will always be a chance for a people on the free tier to also secure free gift art.
Every Tuesday, there’s a new giveaway- but only for subscribers.
All of my other art giveaways Here (I do a LOT, this isn’t the only one you get when you subscribe).
Subscribe now (it’s free!) and you’ll be ready to claim your art on Tuesday:
Don’t worry: There’s never any spam, and unsubscribing is easy.
And if you’re still on the fence: When you do win art, it will be yours. You’ll be free to upload it anywhere, edit it however you like, sell it, print it out, show it off, eat it, enjoy it however you like. I’ve yet to turn down a request, so don’t be shy or afraid I’ll kinkshame.
What’s this about a paid tier?
Paying subscribers get the exclusive right to commission me, exclusive access to the Tapir Terrace (where I upload WIP’s of my work), and bonus free art.
For every $50 increase in my monthly earnings, everyone in the paid tier will receive art. You’re also getting guaranteed art if the “win” conditions are met for random weekly giveaways. You won’t find more art, for this price, at this quality (trust me I looked).
There’s never any pressure to buy- but if you like what I do, that’s the clearest way to say “Thank you!” and “Keep at it!” It’s never expected, but greatly appreciated.
My grand opening sale is still going- if you buy now, you’ll get 50% off a subscription forever.
Thank you again for reading.
PS- if I’m going to be absent for a Tuesday, I’ll leave a note.
