Hello again,
None of us owes any apologies around here, but I did want to say sorry for almost completely disappearing for several weeks.
I've been dealing with difficult personal issues, the usual life/career/relationship stuff, and it completely prevented me from either opening Poser or checking my DA account. I either lost or shoved aside all creative impulse, and also lost motivation to check in here, which is uncommon. Nothing has much improved on the personal front, but I thought I'd at least poke my head in again. I can't speak to the possibility of making more pictures, but it wouldn't be the first time coming back, so it's always possible. I know everyone's really cool with me posting or not posting, so I certainly appreciate that.
In the meantime, rest assured, I am paying the penalty...over 4,500 notices to get through!
Thanks as always, everyone.

Still alive!
Yes, I'm still alive. Sorry for having stayed away so long. I'll try to explain at least some of that in a minute. But I just want to let everyone know I'm at least as OK as I was when I was actively drawing.
The biggest reason for my absence was a property loss which caused me to go without both the hardware and software needed to make drawings. For several full years, I had no access at all to Poser or any of my files. So, no drawings.
But beyond that, and well before that property loss, I had also lost ALL interest in this art work. I started getting bored of most of the art work on this site. I started getting bored with all 3D a
Quikstapic series
(no poll capabilities, so I'll just fake it)
I still have several more reference pictures saved for potential upcoming "Babes of Quikstapic" pictures...I could probably still make another 10-12 if I wanted. I should:
-- "Yes, yes, make ALL of them! Keep working only on that until you've exhausted your supply!"
-- "Well...you can keep going, but feel free to work on unrelated stuff, and mix them in whenever it fits...it's a numbered series, we get the idea"
-- "UGH, enough! Stop ruining our lives with this sh-t and get back to your other pictures!"
Interested in whatever opinions are out there...
Thanks as always for watching!

Promotional mention
I just wanted to point out commission artist ~Sorodolo (https://www.deviantart.com/sorodolo), who has done some good commission work in the past. He's affordable, quick and cooperative.
Here are the two pieces he's done for me so far:
Here is his commission journal for more information:
Definitely worth a look if you're interested...
One offer, many rules
I am open to an art trade, under very specific and limiting circumstances:
** You draw 1 piece, I draw 1 piece (2 MAX, if the reason is compelling)
** The piece I draw for you has a MAX of 4 characters...anything more grinds the whole process to a crawl
** The piece I draw for you uses only characters and elements (clothes, setting, etc.) that you've already seen in my gallery...I'm not looking to acquire new materials right now
** Right now, I am NOT looking for 3D art or a story in return...only considering digital or hand "drawings," purely for aesthetic preference
** Surprising no one, the picture I want in return is of cheerleaders
