Here's a stupid question for you, /h/.
How much does an average h-doujin artist earn?

Not talking about big league guys like Mizuryu, Asanagi etc since those are obviously loaded trough both publishing and patreon, enty etc.

What about the smaller ones? I've always wondered since literally none of them pump out the content even remotely as fast as non-h manga artists do. Even the most prolific guys like Shiwasu with dozens of releases have accumulated them trough literal decades of work. So what about average guys who do, like, 1-3 releases per year?

Is it really enough to provide a living? Are they all just hobbyists with side jobs?

Is anyone here actually close enough to the "industry" to know that stuff? I've been "consuming" this stuff for over than 10 years so I'm really curious about all ins and outs of it.
