If its not one thing its another.... first i lose my pc and now my 800 dollar tablet of 4 years is pretty much dead. The wires in the back are to loose that i cant see the screen anymore. I am going to have to send it off via mail to get it fixed. IDK how much it will be but i bought a temp lil 80 dollar intuos so i can draw again. I gotta relearn how to draw on this type of tablet again but i should be able to pump out some work still. I am now on my lil laptop so i should be able to draw more often. I am not sure if i can stream on it or not, gonna test that out later for now i am gonna try to draw on this little bitty intuos.

If anyone wishes to donate to help me build my new pc or help get money to fix my real tablet please send it to, https://www.paypal.me/komiku ( you dont have to, but it would help me out )

My commissions are open as well if you wish to help me that way. Just shoot me a note!

Thank you guys <3

Hey there guys!

First off i want to thank all the favorites and watches i have gotten while i am on forced hiatus. I really appreciate all of you guys and i hope to be back in action soon. Sorry for not posting anything about this sooner been really busy adulting. ^ -^;

My absence is not due to art block like it usually is, but by the fact i no longer have a PC. My poor computer died in the beginning of June. We tried to fix it but it got fried by a power surge. The extension cord was suppose to protect my PC from such a thing but i guess it still got through. We tried replacing the cheaper parts but it didn't work. So we are building a new PC. It is taking much longer than i like and putting myself in a little more debt than i already was in so expect me to be much more active once i get this new PC up and running. I hope this will be soon but its been a hassle with the mother board (which wasn't cheap). Once i get it replaced with its warranty i will hopefully be back!

Now I do not know if i will still have all my old art since i didn't back up anything onto my external hard drive. Its still in a box some where when we moved..... So i may have all my art gone. I spoke to the folks i owe art to and will discuss refunds or extra art. That will come in time. I am super glad that you guys are super understanding and patient. This has been very stressful and i am going through a really hard time right now with some personal stuff. Thank you guys so much!

With Love,
Komiku <3

We are moving out and i hate to ask this of you guys but we are low on money in order to move out, So to help pay rent and food it would help a ton for anyone to spare any kind of money right now. We need to move out and its going to be by Nov. 10th. So please if you can spare any change it would help me and my husband out right now so that we can afford food and rent. This is taking all of our money to get out of the place we are in right now. I will think of some kind of reward for those who do donate, please note me if you do and ill try to compensate you with some art. Its all i have. Thank you again for reading this and please pass along. I love you guys!

Well i got them out today! I wasnt drugged up or sadated. Just numbed me out and wiggled those suckers out.
I got my pain meds and soft foods so im all set but since im on hydros i will be to dizy/drowsy to draw properly so i will have to put commissions on hold.
If you are waiting for a commission they are about done and wont take long once i am healed. Thank you for your understanding.

A Big Thank You to those who donated. It meant a lot and help with every penny. I love you guys and hope your day/night goes awesomely. Keep being awesome lovelies.

Alright guys, i know i don't post on my journals often but this is important.
At the ripe age of 23 going on 24 soon i need my wisdom teeth out. I only have my top ones so I'm lucky in that regard. Though i am having a rough time. My top right one is pushing on my molars and causing a lot of pain. I was hoping to put it off but now i really need to get these teeth out.

The problem is money. My husband's job is seasonal so during winter (now) he has no job. I only have this as an income and my insurance isn't accepted in most places which is why i go to a clinic. Even with insurance this is gonna be 900$ surgery from my husband's experience. We don't have any money and every little bit i get on here goes towards food. I hate asking for money but any donations will be awesome. I will think of some adoptions or YCHs to try to give out for you guys in return. All of which will go towards my surgery.

Thank you guys for hearing me out and know i wouldn't be asking for money unless its dire. I love you guys!

Donations: https://www.paypal.me/Komiku

PS. Its okay if you are unable to give money but sharing my journal and just hearing me out will help just as much, Thank you!

Well it was minor surgery didn't have to go under or anything just had the area numbed. But the thing is that is on my right arm and it makes doing anything hard to do. So i am going to have to delay drawing further since i cant use my drawing hand. We are hoping what i had was benign and pray i don't have cancer. Thank you everyone for you patience and hope you can understand. Thank you again guys i love you all!

Not a fun morning at all when i had to go to the ER this morning for some pain. Turns out it was nothing serious and thankfully i will be okay. Take time to heal but ill be okay. This definitely doesn't help my speed on my art. I am working on commissions but i do have a life and its taking a lot of time, thank you for your patience everyone and i hope everyone's day is awesome!

A animation software used by studio ghibli is now open for free!

But i have an issue i hope someone will help me with,

I use a Yiynova MVP22U(V3) tablet and i have zero issues in Paint tool sai with it but OpenToonz is not following my pen.
The pressure is working perfectly and it can tell when I'm pressing down but it doesn't follow my pen.
What do i do?

I made a PG account on here

I will still be posting on here but only Adult/Mature themes
If you want to see my more PG art its all gonna start going over there from now on.
Please go watch if you are interested in seeing it, since its still my art!
I hope you lovelies have a good night/day! <3

Oh so i got a note in my DA inbox from a person trying to get people to petition Palcomix.com to cancel it because of pony porn or simply 'child' cartoon porn.

Okay so this bothers me. I personally don't draw or like pony porn. But, i believe people have a freedom to draw and express themselves in any manner. If drawing pony porn is what you wanna draw then so be it. I am not hating on it and don't go looking for it to bash on it. I don't understand people like this that go out of their way to try to remove it. People shouldn't have to worry about losing their hard working pieces of art because of its content.

So i say to you my friends, draw what ever makes you happy.

Sorry for ranting out a little this was just bugging me.

I will be doing more YCHs and adoptables every so often so keep your eyes open for that.

Anyways theres my news :D
have and awesome day and for my fellow americans happy 4th :3

Okay so my mom is amazing, she got me a new laptop which i can now stream with a new tablet (intuos). A new Headset and GTA 5... i mean come on how awesome it that :D this laptop may not be the best but at least i get to stream and play minecraft lol. It cant handle livestream sadly so i will have to stick to useing join.me.

I will try to be streaming as often as i can now!~ ^ -^

If it werent for you guys! Thank you so much for all the watches and favorites. I wouldnt be going on a plane today to see my boyfriend if it werent for you guys. Thank you! I love you guys and i hope to be posting more soon. i am working on commissions and will be taking my work with me on my trip to go see my boyfriend, so hopefully i will get some work done lol. thank you for your patience and support guys it means a lot to me, take care and have an awesome Tuesday <3

...and its bad,

although i can play games on this 'new' laptop and hold my junk i cannot stream
i tried live stream (which just refuses to run for more the 40 seconds before disconnecting), join.me and skype which lag to the point where i cant even draw because of the lag. It isnt the internet, because its one of the best ones, its this damned laptop.

Until i get an actual computer i wont be able to stream and it sucks! i love streaming for you guys. I wont be getting a job till the fall either so any commission i get will be to buy food since we are poor. Though it doesnt seem like i am going to be getting a ton of commissions lol so i might do more auctions or something.

I also havent forgotten the comic im just taking a hiatus from it while i get back into the grove of drawing.

I love all of your faces!

have a good one guys <3

...okay i didn't die lol but i just wanna give you guys an update.

I got a "new" laptop, its way better then my old one. problem is i have to manually move the stuff i want or need on to this one from the old one, which died. Its the best thing evah! no seriously its gonna be painful. I made a back up on my external drive and it will not go on my laptop sooooo yeah... I also have nothing set up, stuff is still packed and i don't have an area to work in yet so there's gonna be a delay in pictures...

for those of you with commissions i ask for you to wait and i apologize, hope y'all understand my predicament....

This also means that my streaming will not be up for awhile since ya know i need my stuff for that x3
I am also sharing a room with my mom so i cant really draw anything naughty, not that she wouldst understand just be awkwardness so streams will have to be clean unless i say so so i wont be doing as much naughty pics unless its a paid commission, no more free naughty ones sorry guys.

So yeah there's that...


Have a good one guys <3
