Hosting recommendations

Hi all,

I am about to start posting again, but I am seeing that bayfiles is not a very reliable host.

In the past I use FileFactory, and some people did not like that host. can I get recommendations please? Bear in mind Google Drive & MegaZ are not suitable and will delete the account with files linked to Pixiv accounts.

Pixiv's updated terms yet again

Hello all,

forgive me for not posting, but I received an email from Pixiv, that they would be updating their terms again, which directly are attacking people like myself...

The first part of the terms affects AI users, which does not apply to me...

The second part however, states that we are to no longer use external hosts for the files we provide, which makes no sense, since I can use whatever means I want to provide content to my subcribers...

I was told that my account would get deleted if i continue.. so I am now waiting to see what happens with this. I have created a new tier, which is 1/4 the price of the animation club, please switch to this until i catch up with my posts.

Thank you all for your patience and support. if anything happens to my Fanbox, you can contact me via my https://baraag.net/@RoboNepen

Happy Holidays, July Updates

Hello all,

having problems with pixiv still, claiming some of my works are not marked as 18+...

I will have to think of setting things up so if I am removed you can still remain in touch.

I am catching up as always with old work. I cannot thank you all enough for supporting me. I have said I will reduce the pricing for my tiers, namely the animation one, and would like to know if this sounds reasonable all to you?

thanks again,

RN

Bayfiles back & audio delayed

Hi all, I will begin re-uploading, person who does my audio has delayed sending me the file(s) I paid for. They promised me this week, if not I will find someone else and pay them.

BayFiles down...

Can't seem to catch a break.. trying to find another suitable host. please bear with me.

almost..

Nearly done with updates, I think I can finish in time for once.

May Updates

Hi all,

Yes I am still alive. recovering mostly at home. It was a difficult few days and I wasn' sure which way my recovery would go, but I am feeling better now, and ready to get back to work on content for you all.

I don't like making promises and not keeping them, so rather than say what I have planned, all I will say is since I will be home recovering I will be able to spend more time focusing on finishing up content and project work hopefully.

Thank you all for your support in these difficult times, it is what keeps me going.

I plan to catch up with all the DM's this coming weekend.

Love,

^_^

Back home

I'm back home finally,

despite the work done my heart seems to suffered damage from past corona infections and other factors, and stress and not taking time off lead to to a stronger and more painful cardiac "hiccup".

was in the hospital under observation and weak as a kitten, back home now resting and trying to play catch up. I will be posting more in the coming days now that I am home.

Thank you all for your patience, it really means a lot. Also, to those that celebrate, happy holidays

Your's faithfully, for however long,

April

Hi all,

Running late as per usual. My hardware failure, causing overheating issues again. repaired for now but will be an issue until the whole thing is replaced sadly, and that is just too expensive right now.

updates to follow. And no that's not an april fools!

As always thank you all for your support, I cannot possibly thank you all enough for helping me with my work.

March updates

Hi all,

very frustrating start to the month. But I don't want to focus on that now. I will however be posting my Barag & twitter profiles in case anything happens to my pixiv account.

in the meantime I hope you are all well. Please let me know what you would like to see coming these months. My following has grown smaller and smaller, and I understand that times are hard and it's not getting any easier for anyone, so I do appreciate those who are still around and able to support my work.

Let's see how things go for the remainder of this month.

Tired of this..

I'm being targeted again.

they chose the 4 posts that had the most view (most over 100K) and reported them.

Really sick and tired of this shit.

February Gold Tier Model

Hi all,

forgive the delay on this. This one for some reason caused so many problems.

There is a visible color difference (depending on the lighting used) on the body vs head. you can use override materials and the vector 3 / "$color2" command and adjust it in the scene. no matter what I tried I just couldn't get them to blend (I am sure this is due to my being sick lately and nothing more).

If I solve this, I will post it with the fix. until then I hope you like this design!

p: rnfanbox

Note also this is actually the model that should have been posted already, and that I will be posting a second, possibly a third model model to make up for the delay. as always your support means so much to me!

January 37th

Longest month ever.

Hope you all are well. I'm out of the hospital tomorrow, will post full update & content.

Happy or content new year

Hi all,

I hope you all had a good new years eve. I was in the hospital, and was discharged yesterday but will have to go back soon for monitoring.

How's everyone?

In the spirit of a new year, I wanted to do something new for the last animation, Which I hope to wrap up soon, it needs more time since its my older style but done in a newer way.

rather than have you all wait here is a very rough short preview.

thank you all for your patience and support in these hard and dark times.

enjoy! includes rigging!

November December whatever

Hi all,

forgive the lateness of this. Between my machines gpu fan failing (had to render chunks and glue them since it would overheat and shutdown), and the voice artist deciding they want double pay (forgive the lack of voiceover for the intro now & and other segments), It has been a frustrating time.

Even more frustrating is someone has provided their account details to piracy site(s) so now all the content I am posting is being put out... not sure who did this or why, but now I will have to implement a new system with encryption starting 2023...

I am taking a break for a few days after this frustrating time, and then will start work on Decembers animation. I will be posting some archive contents also for newer members, and for everyone else who is supporting me, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness and patience.

Article 14 & the future of pixiv

This latest update makes me sad, that pixiv is complying with such an instrusive western concept.

As such I am wondering how to move forward from this. Did everyone get this notification from Pixiv?

please let me know.

Happy thanks giving to those who celebrate it

Hi all,

rather than make everyone wait a few days I thought I'd post the first part / teaser for this today, to give thanks to you all (for those who celebrate it).

more to cum!

Last Wishes / November

Hello all,

It's been a difficult time for me, more so than usual. Where have I been? as some of you know I have health issues, so I go regularly to the hospital. My health though has been quite well, but on one visit, I saw someone I had not seen in awhile. I greeted them and they said they were fine and having just a checkup.

A week later I go and see them again from a distance, and notice them walking funnily.

Eventually I find them in the hallway and we have the talk, that they got a diagnosis and maybe had a few years left.

Fast forward a few months, and it seems that was not the case, and they quickly deteriorated, and had to be hospitalized. I am sure many of you are familiar with ALS, but I had not encountered anyone with it before.

Sadly this person had no one, and asked me if I could be by their side in their last days. Needless to say I agreed, despite it being incredibly heartbreaking. I took my laptop with me to work, but the whole point was for me to actually be there with the person, not working and staring at a screen (not to mention I could not publicly work on my works).

I only managed to find a few free hours before sleep and going to the hospital to work.

The funeral was 2 days ago, and I've spent the last two finishing up the animation work that I couldn't. I apologize for the delay, but if I had to choose between being late producing an animation or spending last moments with a human being suffering, I know the decision I would make every time.

So, where are we now? I plan on trying to catch up, but I am exhausted, emotionally and physically. I am thinking with all that has happened that maybe I will cancel the gold tier, and maybe hold off on things and focus more on producing content, maybe even stop animating and just do some comics and reduce prices, or just cancel it all. I don't know. I will see how this week goes.

I thank you all for being patient and supporting my works, I also understand that we are in hard times and many are not able to spend on my works, and I recommend you look after yourselves, since that is more important than anything.

talk soon
