Ideally, that artist would let you pay for just the non-NSFW content

They do. I don't know if this person just decided to grab the highest tier without reading or something, but the lowest tiers don't have anything explicit associated with them.

It's pretty hard to miss too. I just went there from the link in their comic:

“Character Cosplays” is the second item in the lowest tier, and includes like hand-bra photos and images that are clearly the first couple images leading into a strip tease.

It’s a sort of emotional bait and switch. “Come support me, there’s nsfw comics.” “Ooh I love those, my wife loves those, I’m in.” “Whoops, actually there’s also these risqué photos. Maybe your wife will be ok with it, maybe not. You can choose to have the conversation if you want. But now I’ve handed you a problem, unless you want to just immediately unsubscribe. In which case I still keep the money but you get nothing. Thanks for your support!”

Oh damn well I stand corrected

No worries. You did the right thing looking for details, and when my complaint was about sexual images, it’s reasonable to see the clearly sexual descriptions in the higher tiers and assume that was it.
