Kinsyo (http://members.at.infoseek.co.jp/kinsyo/) is by far my favourite artist. However, while he used to be a pretty regular poster, it looks like he hasn't posted any of his own work in about half a year.

I don't really speak Japanese, so maybe I've missed some sort of announcement he wrote about this. Has he given up drawing, or is it just a lull?

EDIT: I realize that he's updated his site, at least via a forum post, as recently as a week ago. I'm just wondering if he said anything about not drawing anymore.

Perhaps he is rather busy. He probably is not posting alot because he gets tired of the dissedents who bash his art…or like EarthColor has stepped back to "re-evaluate" his art direction. Who knows for certain? Only he would know. So just keep watching his site and drawing BBS board, enjoy the new Haruka pic in his gallery and maybe send him a nice e-mail his translation program will try to convey what you want to say to him. And like the rest of us wait and see. Hope this gives you something to mull over. Love Sammi

Re-evaluation is something I think we all go through; I for one am backing away from this line of art as well after a fair degree of thought. I'll still be doing some, but it won't be as common as it once was, and I'll probably be trying to go for a more natural appearance (and probably proportion) as well.

I won't…as long as someone wants to see it…I'll do it. . .True I've done art that's non muscle girl related. . .BUT I will not forget what got me on the net in the first place and i never will and i won't be bullied or pushed away either And if that's the reason why Kinsyo stopped….Then it's a damn dirty shame.

Nuff' Said.

Awesome saying, LG.  I've notice a bigtrend now in FMG/FBB, where artists are shying away because of bullying, or personal choice.  It's quite alarming, and we've lost some pretty good artists in the process.  I do want to see more FMG artists standing their ground just as you have.

However, things do change…just like teen singers grow up to be adult singers, artists too change, grow, and move on with other things.  It's all about personal preference and whatever is best for the artists themselves.  Also, some artists have a lot of personal situations which occur.  Or sometimes, they just need a break.  Whatever it is, I believe people have the right to do what they feel is best for themselves.  If that means they need a break, or a "clean break"…then so be it.  They have to do what they feel in their heart is right.

I know…
But i guess the point i was trying to make here is.If you're going to change your style of art…do it because you chose to…not because you were bullied into it.Art is an expression. . .Regardless what the topic is.Guys like Kinsyo,Dr.Otto,Even my good buddy Iczerman are talented artists in their own level and skills. they should have same rights to express themselves they way they want to and not be ridiculed by small minded morons who just don't get and don't like things that are unique and different.I had that same problem over at shezzyart But i stood my ground and told them if they don't like my art….Go someplace else!I'm not afraid to speak my mind and they should be either.Be proud guys…Even muscle girls needs love too. ;D

LG…I'm siding with you on that.  I owe a great debt of gratitude to Iczerman…
In fact, the reason why I owe him is because he was the one who encouraged me to start drawing and posting my artwork.  That's something I never dreamed I could EVER do.  I've also seen other new and budding artists who were either bullied or ridiculed by some passers-by or people who don't like that style of art.  Artists are artists and should support one another.  And all that don't like it, don't have to see it or comment about it.  Well said, LG…well said.

Thanks man……
That means a lot to me…..It's validates what i do.
I hope i can enlighten people With what was said here today.
Folks…just keep an open mind and you've taken your first step to a bigger world. 😉

Nuff' said.
