🕑 Added 2017-09-22 01:42:56 +0000 UTC Hi, it's been a while isn't it? You must be dissapointed and angry I simply dissapeared one day. To be honest, I was hesitant to write this. But after all the support you've given to a random person on the internet that happens to draw porn, the least you deserve is to know the reasons. Well, a lot of stuff happened this last year and a half in my life, and I can say it's the roughest time I've experimented. These are no excuses but still.As I told some of you before I dissapeared, I was having issues with a family member. Things escalated and one day I was sued over the few properties I had ( My house, eveything in it and the car basically ) along some other charges I was never guilty of. For those who don't know, I'm a soon to be 26 year old, and I inherited my father house (it's just a small house) when he passed away 3 years ago, and this person thought it was smart to take advantage of me because I'm relatively young and that I have had a problem with alcohol in the past. I nearly lost all the things I had, and my reputation went to the bottom. I lost contact with other family members and the few friends I had while I tried to clear my name. At some point I had to live in my car for almost 2 weeks. That's how harsh it's been.
One day you wake up and life decides to punch you in the balls. The material things were one thing, but the fact this was done by someone so close to me was what made it really painful. I felt so betrayed that I simply forgot about everything else. I don't even rembember leaving this Patreon page opened. I'm cheking the account settings right now and there's a bunch of money from Patreons who kept supporting me for a while after I dissapeared. No words can describe how grateful and amazed I am. I don't know how to repay you for all this, but to keep making the work you like so much.
I don't want you to feel sorry for me, it's in the past and should be left there, but I brought this because you deserved to know, so there. I'm amazed on how people show support to me, even if I'm just a porn artist.
Well, all this made me rethink of what I want to do... fortunately I have a decent payed work now, and I'm trying to heal wounds . Drawing is one of the things I think helps. ( I draw things other than porn mind you, but I guess I have never really showed you haha) I have posted some new work in rule34 page already, but I'm still unsure if I want to re open this Patreon.
I want to draw more and keep improving. If I reopen this Patreon I think it'd be just about donations and at least the patreons would get the pictures first hand and give suggestions for future works. In my most crude, honest opinion, I thinks there's something wrong with people literally taking drawings as a product to sell, ( Obviously, not talking about commercial work for games, magazines and that stuff, but when it's fanart about series you don't own), I never felt comfortable with that in the past. There are people who don't have a problem with this, and I understand that, and maybe I will end up doing the same thing after a while. But for now, that's part of my hesitation to reopen this Patreon, I first need to asure you that your donations won't be wasted on things I'll never make. I need to commit on it fully, and I need to know I can do it.
For now that's all, I'm sure many people have already heard my plans about drawing the female characters of Pokemon, I want to focus on something and this is. First the female from the anime and then the Gym leaders from the games. If the girl never appeared in the anime like Touko and Leaf , I'll draw them when their respective game turn comes. I don't know how long it will take but I plan to make everyone haha. I expect to take breaks and draw other things too. We will see. I have some works never finished and I will try to get them done. A red/leaf pic I promised someone. Mary from the Hoopa movie too.
Thank you, I'd be glad to hear what you think. Also, sorry for my english, a friend helps me with this but his and my english could be better.

I would love to see you back on patron, I like the first hand nature of it. I hope to see your work again soon, but take your time and do what you need to do. You're still one of my favorite artists!
Decided to check in after all this time I may have changed my pledge to a lesser amount but kept it just in case. Sorry to hear about your situation and hope it gets better

Hey Terufuu, any way to contact you? Twitter, etc?
hiro armada
glad to hear your still alive and kicking. I think its commendable to be able to enjoy doing your hobbies even when life seems like its trying to get in your way. Also huzzah at the hinting at the future Touko artwork, but out of curiosity is there any chance for artwork for Amelia from the anime? Either way its great to hear from you again.
I'm glad you're okay and back! For the longest time I can remember, you and your Pokegirls were, and still are the most unique I've ever seen. Will be there to support you and your Pokegirls!
It's amazing to see you back. I think some of my latest pledges didn't go through (I use a different bank account for it and don't have all that much money in it at a time, and I wasn't paying that much attention to it), but I still hope you'll consider reopening your Patreon and allowing for suggestions and polls. I'd suggest commissions, but you'd no doubt get swamped with requests if you tried, haha. On a more selfish note, do you still have plans to work on that picture we talked about in private messages a while back?

Glad to hear you are back and Im sorry to hear about all of the stuff you had to go through while you were gone. You are always so polite and friendly in your post so its hard to imagine someone would ever want to hurt you like that. Regardless, its great to hear things are starting to finally go your way. As for patreon, even if you don't plan on doing anything special for rewards , I do hope you choose to keep it open. As many other patrons have said above, it feels great to support a artist you like

I'm glad to see you made it through some hard times, I had assumed the worst. Patreon exists for people to support who they want to support, who they think deserves it. You're a very talented artist, I think you're well deserving of the support people have given you. Whether or not you think of it as sales or donations, the money you earn is from your skill and not the characters. Whatever you decide to do, I'll gladly follow it!

I'm sorry to hear things have been hard. I had a feeling that whatever had caused your disappearance would be something drastic, but I had no idea how bad it was. I'm truly, deeply sorry. At the same time, your fans always had hope in you and believed you'd return, and it's wonderful to see that day has come. You're deserving of my donation, praise, and much more. Keep doing what you do, and may the future be brighter than ever. You deserve it.
Michael .S. McRae
It's good to see you're alright and slowly piecing things together. I'll continue donating as per always just keep doing what you can.
It's good to see you back. I'll keep donating anyways, we miss you and your pokegirls!
Rookie One
Happy your back, and that you are ok. For the patreon, i would be more than happy to resume donating to you, you are one of my favourite artists, and I agree that art is meant to be shared, not sold. :)
lasham
Would definitely love to see all your work, non-pornographic and non-pokemon included. Also I agree with the tip-jar/open suggestions idea while still keeping it monthly. I am sure most people here treat it as a tip jar already anyway. Can't wait for your future works!
lasham
Glad you to hear that it's all in the past and that you are ok now, welcome back champ.
V templer
Glad you are back! I'm so excited for your works!!
jun
i became ur patron but where can i get ur works?
KingR
Also, you something was happeneing when i saw a new image poping on a r34 website.
KingR
Some people are just asshole. I hope your work of art didn't put you in trouble during this dark time... Anyway, i always said you deserved the support even if you posted nothing for a while.
SteelRaven
If charging is a problem then change it to paid per work. I think it would be fair for both parties. As I suggested on rule34, think about opening twitter/tumbr as alternative to patreon. I don't want to be rude, but what about using some of the money you got to learn some English ? People would love to interact with you during live streams on pages like picardo. They basically watch their fav. artists drawing new art and talk about various stuff. Reconsider it, please :) !
qwerty
Glad to see you back. Hope you have a happy ending.
Delicious Orange
We are always here for you. Stay strong!
Satoshi
Good luck my friend! Keep drawing like a God!
Carlos
Glad to hear from you again. You dont have to feel bad about leaving suddenly because you did say that you went through something rough and didnt want to do this anymore. I stopped pledging because i dont have that much money but I will gladly support back as a tip jar, even if its a little this time. Especially after know what you went through. Wether or not you decide to reopen this site I wish you the best of luck.
pengin senshi
Glad to hear you're okay. Dealing with family members is never easy, and my family once had to sue another over a house, as well. Whatever you decide to do, we'll support you for it!
redguard153
Glad to hear your back! But also sorry to hear about all that. A cousin of mine went through some similar bullshit and is still trying to recover, so I know the feeling. I'd be glad to continue to support you on Patreon, even just as a "tip jar" or something similar. You can also adjust it so it only charges per work created, that way if you decide to not draw one month, no one gets charged.
I'm happy to hear you're doing better. I hope one day you'll decide to re-open your Patreon. But whatever it is you decide to do, you have my support. 👍🏻
Sergio Barajas
I'm also very happy to hear about you again, you have had serious problems hopefully it has already ended. I've seen many comments about your latest work on rule34, i also agree that those "non porn" pictures are just awesome and you could think on making them along the work for which we know you and which you're that famous. Cheer up and whatever you decide we'll support you.
I never lost my fate that you would be back man. glad to know you are still alive and your life is getting better.
