Hi there! How's everyone doing?

It's been quite a while since I last updated everyone! I appreciate your patience.

Before I get into it, let me introduce my DC group to you all! During this time off, a lot has happened, such as social media platforms banning accounts of adult-themed creators, or credit card companies halting transactions related to adult content creators. These developments have been concerning for me because if I were to get banned from these platforms, it would be difficult for fans to find me!

Q: So, what have I been up to during this period?

A: Primarily, I've been focusing on adjusting my lifestyle and planning for the future. Last year, when AI started gaining prominence, I made the decision to halt my creative work and income. I took this time to reflect on my lifestyle. Throughout my journey, I've always aimed to create characters that resonate with people, and intricacy has been a fundamental aspect of my creations. My goal has always been to create works that my beloved fans genuinely appreciate.

I often found myself dissatisfied with my artwork and made numerous revisions. This dissatisfaction led me to avoid revisiting my work, blaming myself for not devoting enough of my life to my craft. Even though I tried to convince myself that I wasn't alone by engaging with the internet, deep down, I was struggling. This internal struggle led to sleepless nights, poor physical health, hormonal imbalances, and extremely low mental well-being. I used to escape the pressure of creating unsatisfactory artwork by spending more time online.

During this break from creating, I've been trying to adopt healthier eating and sleeping habits. Initially, I faced many setbacks, failing dozens of times. However, I ultimately chose to prioritize self-care and understanding myself better. Now, I believe I can stabilize my mental state. For me, for me, one of the most important things, besides the love from my fans, is nurturing my own physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

My goal has always been to create work that resonates with each fan on a personal level. However,

AI can produce incredibly intricate works in seconds, which makes me feel like I've lost the ability to create something that truly captivates my fans.

Excessive intricacy may diminish interest in the long run, given the abundance of highly intricate images flooding the internet daily. What used to be rare and precious intricacy has become overwhelming.

I don't want fans just because someone drew it, so I give him a thumbs up, but I'm tired of looking at the stuff that's being produced. In my heart, I really don’t want fans to see my works and give birth to: This author

The creations never amaze and love me as much as before. After all, the streets are full of more exquisite pictures....

I really want my fans to see love in their eyes and hearts when they see my pictures.

(I have also thought about how to use AI, rather than being used by AI, and how to use AI as a reference. I believe that AI can still be used. Rather than just producing a picture and then comparing it, it may be used to draw backgrounds or This is for reference. I will also post in the future to ask fans if they accept my use of AI in the background.)

For a while, I have been thinking about how to draw fast, well, and distinctively. I started thinking about creating original characters.

Because of AI, I feel that the drawings will only serve as training for others, and I can’t say anything. At that time, I thought it would be better to try something original.

I also started researching original works,

In addition to thinking about originality, I also started to pay attention to 3D software and various tools.

I have been imagining my original characters and stories for the past two months. I really like the world and story I conceived. I think it is very special and very meaningful to me.

But this month I discovered a very fatal shortcoming, that is, if the background of my story is too large and I want to use illustrations to execute it, each picture will require more and more background knowledge.

When new fans see my pictures on the Internet, they are like reading a comic from the middle. Although they feel that the comic is very exciting, they have no idea what the comic is about.

So I think the setting of the story should not be based on another world.

You should draw with a worldview setting that is close to life, such as school, workplace, and daily life. Drawing some good stories about the daily world is a priority.

The setting of my different world is very interesting,

But I don't think I can solve the problem just raised now, nor do I have the resources,

So I will think of solutions and create short stories at the same time

I look forward to the opportunity for my original stories to appear in the future.

I will continue to create for you around mid-June

And I will still focus on fan creations in the second half of the year, mainly animation and game creation. I hope I can find a way to let fans participate in my creations, vote, etc.

As for the creative content, I hope that in addition to exquisite pictures, it will be more story-telling than before!

I hope that in the future, when I introduce my own original characters, there will be enough viewers to see them. So, for now, I will focus on creating fan-oriented anime and games to increase everyone's attention to my account.

April, May, and June were the months when I finalized my creative process and tools, and contemplated on ways to interact with my fans. I apologize for the long wait; during this time, I often thought of all of you.

Perhaps my return is just an ordinary one, or perhaps it will be a successful one, allowing me to receive even more love! However, I am grateful to have a group of fans who love me and are still waiting for my updates.

I am also grateful that I have finally learned to love myself and manage my schedule and well-being. (During this time, my physical condition has improved a lot, but I just hope that there are no hidden health issues from the past ten years of my lifestyle...)

I don't know what my fans think when they read this post, but I still love you all. You will always be my most important fans, and this is my most genuine sentiment. I hope that in the future, my fans will have great physical and mental health, enjoy more excellent works, and be happy every day!

With love,

GTUNVER

Im happy to see you're taking care of yourself! Im looking forward to see what you come up with :D As for AI stuff, you shouldnt feel dejected because all the AI stuff I see looks very polished, but just at a surface level. It lacks personality and it very rarely makes u feel much. You shouldnt need to feel the pressure of competing against AI speed when the combined AI artworks cant compare to a single of yours uwu

I just need to think and create hard, and take care of myself. I think this is what I can do for my fans!
