It's been some time since I posted anything on here. I'm still around on this site, but mostly just lurking these days while still finding new artists or art to commission. I'm mostly active on Telegram and Bluesky nowadays. If I eventually have some free time again, perhaps I will start posting some of my art on here again as I have quite the backlog to post if I do. I'm sure some of you who watch me on here, have missed seeing stuff from me. x3

FA's new policy is dumb as fuck, and no one asked for this policy to be created. It's a shame since there's quite a bit of artists who I follow are leaving this site because of this decision. I originally thought of uploading the rest of the art I've commissioned over the passed several months but since FA decided to play dumb. I'm not going to waste my time uploading the rest of my backlog if some of the content might be against their policy especially with how vague it is.

If you all want to continue following me, here's my other pages. I may also create a Telegram channel for my art too:

I've been on the fence of uploading more of my recent art I've commissioned these past few months. It isn't because I don't have the time to upload new content, but more of feeling like FA doesn't have the activity as it once did in the past. Sure, I've been getting favorites from others but there isn't really much activity for comments and such. I almost feel like it is waste with adding some nice descriptions to compliment some of the art I've posted, I may just not even do the effort anymore. Also, I'm unsure that I'll be keeping this account active or completely abandon it. It is something I'll have to figure out since I'm already not on here as often as I used to be.

Thought I would decide on posting something here since it has been a long while, and kind of been lurking around. I haven't been as active on FA as of lately and been more focused on Discord and Twitter, but I still check in from time to time.

As for updates, not really much has happened ever since this pandemic began. I moved back to Florida around the start of March last year, and things were going great at first with plans when I came back, even had a job lined up and was about ready to be offered the job but then the pandemic happened, and that job had to be placed on hold. So, ever since then I've been out of a job and trying my best to get something again, but it is making me consider moving somewhere else again since the job market here in Florida has been terrible especially for IT work at my skill level and pay. Maybe it will do me good to be somewhere new to enjoy.

With all aside, I've been trying keep myself positive throughout all this while having my ups and downs. Mainly been doing some gaming, attempting to get back into my hobby of DJing, and also trying my best to socialize with friends who I was able to keep in contact with while the time passed.

To all my friends who have stuck around for me during these tough times, thank you for being there for me. It means a lot to me and I appreciate you all. <3

In case some of you watchers were wondering if this account is still active and if I will be posting art again. I will eventually come to that since I do have a few pieces to still post on here, just haven't had much of a chance to do so since my life has been crazy for the past few months. Also not sure if FA is as active as once was before since it seems much quieter, so also part of why I have taken a backseat on here.

Though, just curious if there is anything that my watchers would like to see more of? Since I'm so thinking of commissioning more art again when I get the chance. :P

That is all I have to say for now, thanks for reading. :3

Hey all! It has been quite a few months since I posted any content on here. I'm still around, just haven't had much time to myself lately since I've been going through a lot and trying to sort out a few things. I'll do my best to post up a few of the commissions I've received from a few months ago to start catching up and give you all some nice art to see again. <3

I know I have been posting up some of the recent commissions I've gotten lately. But, just wondering if you guys are not minding me adding some backstory to go along with some of the pics? I have already started it on the few pieces of art I posted. Thought it was an interesting idea than just having to post up just the art with nothing to go along with it. After all, it gives me a bit of writing practice and I do want to try to get better at it. :3

Sorry for my lack of activity lately on FA. Pretty much life lately has been throwing me around in different directions, so haven't really had much time to myself to actually be as active on here. So, most of the time I'm just lurking around. Though, I'll be uploading some of the recent art I've gotten when I can as I realized I'm a bit behind. So don't worry, you'll be seeing more sexy art of this fox again. :P

Now, random question for you all. Is there any certain scenarios or themes you would like to see my fursona in more? I know lately I've been getting quite a bit of pics with my fennec  SolarFlare as well as bondage and chastity type commissions. But, I am pretty much all open for suggestions. :D

No MFF meme this time around, but I'll be there at the con from Thursday to Monday in the main hotel. Looking forward to being there yet again and see all you awesome furs. I'll be having my fennec  SolarFlare in the room along with  KerkFikan and Koshiro Shepsky.

I've been wanting to put out another one of these, especially after having quite a busy few months. So here's Future Transmission 19. There's quite a bit of new tracks in this episode, a couple of classics remixed as well as a new track from  FredrikMiller

Another year has passed by with attending this con and it would be my 4th year in a row I've been to it now. I had some good moments at this con like meeting new furs and hanging out with familiar ones. Also, it was a great experience playing on stage Friday night with  Asher-the-Firefox during our DJ set. Though, I'll have to admit. I didn't enjoy the con as much this time around. It felt like there wasn't much of that good vibe there out of it to make it an enjoyable experience as it usually is. Also I didn't suit for most of the con. I guess I can say it was one of those ok years. Here's to hoping RF next year will be a better one.

So I'll be attending RF again this year, so wondering who else am I going to be seeing at the con. :3 I'll be there from Wednesday the 23rd and leaving Monday the 28th. Also, I'll be rooming with these guys again  Reo_GrayFox  sharakolunarwolf so it should be fun. ^^

I think we've been waiting for this moment to happen for a very long time, so now there can be some kind of organization in my gallery for once. Good thing I don't have too many submissions to go through. x3

Ended up having such a good experience at Megaplex as it was a good chill out con, especially after dealing with the craziness from AC. It was great to see friends who I haven't seen in so long and of course met some new ones along the way. I didn't suit as often as I wanted to, but that's okay. I still got a few pictures of me from the con and even had  Roo3k roam around in my suit for a bit on Saturday while I was DJing that night, which definitely was entertaining. Ended up confusing quite a few of my friends for sure. :P I'll definitely be back again next year, especially with how awesome the new hotel is going to be. I'll have to somehow bring my fennec  SolarFlare down one year so he can see how much of a blast this con is year after year. :3

The next cons coming up for me will be RF and MFF, so see some of you fuzzies there until then. <3

Well, I'll be returning to another year at Megaplex. So for any fuzzies who haven't seen me in so long, this will be your chance to see me again. :D

I will have to say, even though I had some bad moments at AC and didn't suit all that often. There was mostly good and turned out better than I expected. I had a great time DJing at the dance on Thursday night as it was my first time ever playing at a con that huge. Though things were very different on Saturday during the fursuit parade I was a part of. We had our usual route, but it changed as soon as we out the doors of the convention center. Once we were outside, we were greeted and cheered on by the city of Pittsburgh, about 5000 people watching and enjoying the parade. It so put tears to my eyes and made me smile as I never seen such a city who is so welcoming to us furs.

Also, I'll have to thank my boyfriend  SolarFlare for coming along with me to the con. He helped brighten my mood for the whole weekend and can't wait to see him again.
I think I will consider AC a con that I will constantly go back to as it is so different than all the other cons I've been to around the country. Now that AC is over with. I'm going to be getting ready for Megaplex, so that is also going to be a blast in 2 weeks. I'll be looking forward to it. <3

Sorry for everyone who was still waiting for me to post up new content on my FA page. I'm just now getting around to it since I do currently have a lot going on especially with AC coming up and also having to move to another place around the end of July. So don't be alarmed if you see a flood of new art getting posted up. :P

I thought I would try something different this time around and move away from the Trance music a bit and do a Deep House mix. I really love how this one turned out and really fits a summer vibe to relax or jam out to. :)

Those of you who are going to FWA. Have fun for me. This will be the first time I am going to skip out on it, especially after attending it for 3 years straight. I have a new job starting the week of the con and also trying to build up my income, so RL priorities first before anything else for me.

On the flip side. I will be at AC again this year, so for those who don't see me at FWA this time around. AC will make up for that. :)

I guess there is no stopping for the furs who are overreacting about this IMVU thing with FA. But if you must pack your bags and go somewhere else. Feel free to follow me on any of these 3 sites since I am a bit active on all of them.

Inkbunny: https://inkbunny.net/Takum
SoFurry: https://takum.sofurry.com/
Weasyl: https://www.weasyl.com/~takum

Don't worry though, I am not planning to leave anytime soon.

I think it is kind of silly that a lot of furs are bitching of FA being acquired by IMVU. Well I hope those of you who end up leaving FA enjoy yourselves, because I have a feeling a lot of you will be back on this site in a week. It's like whenever FA does something drastic, there is always the whining, bitching, and threats of leaving FA. So it's like the cycle repeating all over again. And to be honest, I've seen shit like this happen ever since I've joined this site in 2007. I just don't really give a fuck at all. I'm still going to be using this site as my main one for furry art unless this site tragically goes out.

So this is my take on this whole thing.

So this crossed my mind for quite a bit of time and I was thinking. Is there anything else you guys would like for me to post? What I mean is like other themes or scenarios to put my fursona in for future commissions. I'm all open for suggestions. :3

This has been something that has been on my mind for past few months and thought I may as well bring it out now. Not sure if I've done anything wrong to push people away or it could just be me not being all that active much on this site like I used to be. I do apologize for that. I just don't really get much of a chance to post art frequently or post journals to let everyone know I am still here as I've been taking care of more important things in my life. It's probably also why there really hasn't been much fursuit pics of me as of recently since I haven't attended any cons since MFF last year. I may be kind of dropping the amount of cons I go to this year as I am doing my best to save up to move out of state and into one which has a bit better job market. Most likely it will be somewhere that is a bit closer around my close friends  SolarFlare and  KerkFikan as they would love to see me more often than just once or twice a year at cons.

I'll be trying my best to at least be a bit more active on here and communicate with you guys a little more, but I cannot guarantee it especially if my life decides to keep me busy for a bit. So hope you all understand.

Here's another new episode of the next Future Transmission. It may have been quite a few months since I did the last one, but I feel it was well worth the wait especially trying new things after playing at many cons in 2014. This one is a lot different than my previous mixes, kind of a bit darker in a way but still has that energy.

Anyway, had fun mixing this one together so enjoy! :3
