Hello, you likely never see me active in this place. I hate this place to be frank, it sucks.

Starting off this year I have had my water heater go out, the management company has not been helpful in fixing the gas leak that has caused the meter to be shut off and the city has done little to nothing about the gas line either.So needless to say, I reek and my options to go anywhere are stretched thin. I need medical and dental care but my self consciousness prevents me from seeking the help I need, so I am dealing with an abscess in my jaw and absolutely no medication to keep me functional. I have been huddled binging what little comforts I have left.

So how did I get here? The short answer is I got scammed out of money I was trying to secure another income stream. I lost basically every penny being forced to use what little I could salvage to pay this month's rent after replacing a rather expensive art tool. So yeah, I am broke. I have sought employment, assistance, and other odd jobs to no avail. I am stranded, dead in the water. I have tried to help myself out of this mess for the last four years now but everything I do I seem to lose motivation to keep pursuing it. It's a combination of taking on new tasks to fund the tasks I intend to get done versus the fact that I still need to pay bills and eat. Things have gotten too bad to stay focused on a single goal I have to take on more tasks and favors. This isn't okay and I am not okay.

I really want to return to grace but each passing month it seems to be more and more out of reach for me. I'll keep trying, but the future is not looking to good for me.

Despite everything I am still here anyway.

I'll get back to posting art and while I am at it I have commissions available. Details at my twitter here https://twitter.com/Monolith_Sharpy.....07158929633287 . I'm hurting for money and willing to do an honest man's work instead of shaking a tip jar in people's faces to give them cartoon nipples. I will never paywall my following. But you can donate a smol tip to me via https://www.ko-fi.com/deusexkittycoon.

I made a few new artworks, some are dipping into various niches but I am sure my following still remains in good faith of me. This is my largest platform currently.

Meanwhile I would appreciate some feedback and boosting if you would like to be of assistance without impacting yourself financially.

Meanwhile nothing will be removed here, at least by me. It will serve as a conservatorium for an era in my past.

So uh...

tag filters when?

Just kidding that don't matter anymore.

Cause of you did you'll miss ght want to follow me again.

https://www.twitter.com/monolith_sharpy

I did a stupid so uh, follow me and help me in shadow ban my ass.

Not as much as a peep of feedback here, nothing.

This place is dead.

Wow what a great update. It is missing the important detail of me not wanting to see shit engorged diapers the size of skyscrapers while dressed in Waffen SS uniforms but hey they hired a code monkey that finally developed something. Isn't that terrific? Now to wait about 6 more years until a tag filter (that can be written in a weekend tops) is added. But they would need to crowd source that because nothing useful comes for free but apparently the bells and whistles do.

Then again FA's business model is selling you a tiny picture next to your name and larger jpeg files for your gallery. Incredible value there. Don't forget for 800$, you can seek the approval of absolute strangers by dunking on the haha funny bird website.

Okay so 800 overall, some active, others inactive, and some even departed from this world.

But it has been a long strange journey of over 14 years now.

Needless to say if you are reading this, thank you. We have been through highs, lows, and strange diversions. But we are still here.

This is my personal note to everyone who is still with me kicking it as it has been. I appreciate every one of you, my life has been a wild ride of varying ways, both in terms of speech, and literal. So maybe I suffer an abusive relationship with my own artwork and work ethic overall, but I am still glad to have been able to grow with you all who have given me your audience. Watchers, Friends, and even those who are no longer around with me, you have been the bread and butter for helping me discover who I can become. I have improved both as an artist and a person able to socialize and confidently meet new faces.

Bless you all.

Zootopia came out 6 years ago. It's target demographic is now in high school.

Trying not to be yeeted out into the streets, I am looking to raise about 500$. I know it is a bit of a stretch to ask but I desperately need this by the 30th. If you wish to help I got https://www.ko-fi.com/deusexkittycoon to help in funding.

In a perfect world if 20% of my overall followers donated 5$ to me I could live comfortably, but that's just not how the story unfolds. However the benefit to supporting me is as follows:

-VRChat avatar development for making more base avatars and developing a "gold standard" for all my future projects.

-Frequently occuring art posts that will once again start occuring regularly. This will include commission work and the occasional giveaway.

-Less words more content!

So these are just the core benefits of what I can offer if my situation was more manageable. I'm immunocompromised, and located in an area where jobs are far and transportation doesn't exist here. The only way to keep myself afloat is through my work and your support. Thanks for considering.

Two journals in a day? Heck yes. You're not my real dad.

So check out the ways to support me and speed up my production as well as keep me from that hunger thing.
https://www.patreon.com/deusexkittycoon
or if you want to help out one time or just don't do patreon
https://ko-fi.com/deusexkittycoon
I intend to rotate and bring up new merch rewards as well as any patron ideas.

Commission discounts are also a benefit, so if you are a regular supporter you can get a neat discount on my work. I will be uploading an updated commission sheet soon so keep an eye out.

I would really appreciate your help in supporting my creative career.

I should post more in an actual art gallery.

Comfy Pillow, aka Foxeanna as some may recall, was found by family passed away. Comfy was a good friend who was always sweet and with good intentions.

I don't have much more to say right now, everyone just found out about an hour ago. I'm sorry.

Mainly making avatars to sell on gumroad, I hope to see some business in this, I have a lot more coming.

https://app.gumroad.com/metaversetrashpanda

Plenty of work to do but I am almost there to release the basic and free versions for the pony avatar.

As the title suggests. I only ever actively post on fur affinity and twitter. I used to post on more sites but they kind of feel more like a chore. I have considered postybirb but I feel like that takes the personal feeling out of interacting with fans.

I'll see what I can do.

Also add this nerd. DeusExKittycoon #5742

Furaffinity is a shit show. It has been for as long as I can remember but the drama here gets less and less entertaining as my standards for the people that run it get lower and lower. I have lower standards for this place than comfort expectations for a run down highway motel. Allow me to enlighten you on the history of my experiences on this site.

The silencing of legitimate victims, boosting of false accusations, and covering up of predators, zoos, and criminals.
The evidence for this is damning, and if I were at the wheel of this site I would be committed to do the right thing and not the easy thing. Avoiding proper action and discourse, this site has spiraled into a echo chamber of those who want to hear what they only want to hear, and their feelings being more important than the truth. Go to any other site that mentions fur affinity and the outlook seems to be almost always negative. The leadership of this site has tarnished so many potential partnerships and relations, it is a miracle that this tainted ground we stand on still holds. The life of this site has slowly been drained into the soulless over commercialized husk of a image hosting platform for furries.

The community is gone.
What's left of it is a void of silent watchers among pockets of echo chambers. The broad and heavy handed act of dividing the community based on politics has destroyed what living breathing environment this platform had. Under the guise of being "alt-right extremist" FA has silently banned many people the leadership did not agree with. This doing is irreversible and has left FA with a far less active social functionality than uses for a Hummer H2. Ripping apart it's own community only for these people to find more successful ventures elsewhere. All because of a minor disagreement. Extremists are all over the spectrum, and when you upset the balance you get what you have today. A pump of YCH shills, bases, and the odd actually decent artist who's growth is further hindered by FA's divisive actions. Subscribing to the mentality that "I'm right and you aren't so you are banned" logic. Hell the banner of this site is years old now, I remember when people would submit banners monthly until "the bronies ruined it."

Legitimate Businesses are Hurting
Along with the dividing of the community, plenty of businesses and service providers on this site have lost a lot of potential income. Believe it or not, there is a silent majority who give little to no fucks about one's political views as they are brought together by common interests and pass times. I can account for myself and many more artists that potential customers and artists alike banned for "wrong think" having more firm conservative views and being labeled a "nazi". Meanwhile the same website is okay with keeping images of fascist like materials with the usual symbols replaced with actually violent groups and outright fraudulent activism groups. Knowing how FA has a narrative to "keep them nazis out", I have yet to see FA actually take proper action against the problems that marginalized groups actually face. In fact, FA has a record of pocketing donation money instead of using it for a declared cause. FA has never seen a single cent from me. Because FA is so insistent that their politics are more important that a healthy community ecosystem. Yes people have disagreements but before all the dividing rhetoric, this site was a community, even with the already established history of drama.

Furaffinity is committed to recognizing and supporting the fight against racism and hate...
By overlaying a rainbow over their stock clip art logo. Because that will definitely scare the straight cis white male boogeyman that everyone here seems to be afraid of while Mr. Homewrecker is nailing their girl in the same house bearing his third child. If this strikes a nerve and gets me banned, you're only proving the point. I am a native american irish mix, two of the most oppressed people in human history. I don't ask for reparations and I don't think society owes me for what happened in a time where I wasn't even alive. I work for my keeps and when I find myself in a time of need I strictly use what I am given for that specific emergency. If I find myself over funded I will gladly donate what I didn't need to people who need it. What the fuck has FA done for people in need? Make a rainbow logo and endorse scam "charities". I will bet money on it that somewhere between June 30, and July 31... FA will go back to ripping Nickelodeon off.

I am not asked to stay here, but while my time may be short I might as well tell my two cents on why this site really fuckin sucks now.

Hey everyone, I am alive.

First of all, I have some work to do. To all that I owe stuff to I am working as hard as I can to organize and finish everyone's art. I freed up a few slots and more info on commissions can be found on my pinned post on twitter.

http://www.twitter.com/dkittycoon

I recently had to move cities and a lot of the costs have left me pretty penniless. It was a huge investment to move all this but thankfully I have my own place now. A lot of surprise charges have barraged me and I am in need of some support. I ask that you can either consider commissioning me, make a donation via shinies, or http://www.ko-fi.com/deusexkittycoon to help get my art going. If you can please boost too if possible. I'm only short about 300$ though.

3D avatars for social VR and Vtubers are available for pre order. They are 500$ each and are custom made to every individual. There is some research to go but every avatar will be able to get lifetime updates. These take a while to make and are still very experimental.


How have I been?

Well it's been rough to say the least, being forced to move out a home while having fresh vaccine pumped into your system. I moved to Houston area and have met a few friends already. Of you are down here I won't object to meeting up for a snack or drink.

I will be away June 3-6 to celebrate my birthday with the family. I will be online but away from the main workstation. I will be 31 on June 03.

I have one.

https://www.patreon.com/deusexkitty.....n_landing=true

I offer perks and benefits and will roll out more as support grows. Among those are commission discounts and other neat features like periodic drawings and early access to large products.

Other than that a few updates.

I'm doing okay. I managed to avoid illness in this year somehow and also have grown noticeably.

New and old friends it's always good to see you. I miss going to conventions and venues and really hope we can all be worry free of this pandemic soon.

I'm still trying to grow as a business. I am getting into VR modeling and general 3D too. Though I may share bits here and there, Twitter's flexibility will be more reliable for those updates.

If I feel confident about making VR stuff and other 3D content, I will offer them as new services. I will always price my stuff competitively and be willing to negotiate. I accept more than cash and crypto as payment and always love to bargain trades.

I'm also becoming more comfortable with being social and most of all myself. I may not be much for words but I generally enjoy company and feedback. Even if I am doing bad I would rather know that I am than let my errors bother somebody.

Not very smart choices were made. Now we are all aware of what is pretty much inevitable at this point, so. You can find me on twitter as dkittycoon and discord as DeusExKittycoon #5742 I look forward to it

Nothing really big here. I am able to start commissions now. I will get to work and end that long painful wait. Sorry for those who been waiting.

Yeah this morning I was going for some snacks but then I tumbled over somebody's hood and was nearly ran over as the driver sped away. My leg is hurt, possibly cracked. Declined medical services because I cannot afford that shit.

Speaking of what I cannot afford, is the fact that my only other option to work is out of the picture. Commissions are full and I am doomed to lose my roof if I cannot get immediate help by the 30th. I have an active fundraiser goal on my ko-fi as I don't need to also spend the next 3 months of my life in a car and then some. A little boosting and even the smallest amount will help. I don't need much to at least keep a roof, I'll get in touch with some close friends about getting a better look at my leg.

I really wish I were on better terms to make content for the lot of you, luckily for you I may actually have the means now.

I love you and you are literate.

Getting lots more influence over the past few months. I'm glad to have drawn you all in for my creative works. I will get back to it shortly and not leave you all high and dry.

Heyo it's ya boi, DeusExTittycoon and I got a friend I want you all to go see.  Yukasyrus is a traditional artist with a old world illustration style and soon to be digital illustrator. Give her a visit and consider following her on her art journey.

Also, have a good day you all

Yup, a dangerous situation right now financially, I am really far behind on finances and running low on commission orders.

Feel free to assist me via shinies, commission, ko-fi, or patreon. I will reply to you with the corresponding links of needed. Otherwise I am facing the real danger of losing my home and nearly everything in it, including my art supplies.

I'm in no position to get other help as I am the last surviving member of my family.

I have been repeatedly denied assistance for the last four months too.

I've been making good progress thinning out my commission queue, but I will need more work to keep busy and housed.

I'm introducing new prices to reflect time, economy, and skill needed to finish modern commissions. Flats are 40, soft shading 60, full shading 80. Backgrounds are 20 extra.

Other than that I am really sorry I have to annoy you about my situation, but art has been my only lifeline with these current events going on. Thanks for understanding.

As the title says, when browsing for new art it's either adoptables or YCH ads.

It's really out of control how so many people are advertising constantly and never posting any actual content.

Miss me with all that.

I'm going to be blunt, I been trying to post more quality work lately and I have been curious of feedback for my newer stuff. I have a new toolkit and hardware to rock out even better pictures than before, and I been wondering if this less frequent, more detail thing works out or not. I will still regularly post commissions and other content.

I noticed a lot of abandoned accounts make up a good portion of my following, however I am going to ask just to please consider supporting me via Patreon. Even if half of you subscribed to my lowest tier, I could exponentially increase productivity and have lots of time to bring more of that good quality stuff

Please please please consider supporting my goal of a full time freelance artist and take me away from the hell that is customer service. If enough people hop on I will start incentives of weekly and monthly drawings, and when I get to a better point I will host big events for supporters and fans free for all to enjoy.

I will never paywall my art like others do, I am selling content for everyone to enjoy at any time. There will be no "exclusives" or times releases, but paying patrons, subscribers will still get bonuses like raffle entries, welcome gifts, and special discord roles that give you a pretty color.

I thank you for reading all this, I want to be busy but not busy scrambling for dear life just to eat a 2$ meal a day and be obligated to be away from what I love to do. You as my followers are my bread and butter and I do appreciate every one of you.
