Going to be taking this Sunday off for streaming as it's Easter and I will be spending time with family.

I will resume streaming the following week however!

Thanks for understanding :)

Hey everyone. It’s been a while since I’ve given a life update, so I wanted to take a moment to share how things have been going for me lately.

To be honest… it’s been tough.

Since March 2024, I’ve been doing freelance art full-time—just barely getting by, hanging on by the skin of my teeth. Many of you already know I take care of my mom alongside all my art responsibilities, and I’m incredibly thankful that she finally won her disability case. But unfortunately, our finances have only gotten tighter. Our food stamps were reduced as a result, and we couldn’t even afford food for Easter this year.

In a grimly ironic way, I guess I’ve become the textbook definition of a “starving artist.”

I won’t sugarcoat it: I’m feeling burnt out. I’m tired.

I manage both a Patreon and a SubscribeStar—both 18+ only due to the mature content I create—where I post all of my work early for folks supporting me at the $3 tier. On top of commissions, I’ve locked myself into a heavy posting schedule:

• Every Monday: A new comic page
• Every Wednesday: A WIP preview of the next page
• Monthly: A supporter-voted character pinup, typically posted toward the end of each month
• Commissions: Uploaded upon completion
• All posts (except the WIPs) stay exclusive for a week before going public
• My comic, Rapture in the Clouds, is currently 4 pages ahead on the paysites

It’s… a lot. I’m overwhelmed. I’ve backed myself into a corner trying to keep everything afloat.

To make matters worse, I don’t even have this month’s rent yet. I’m doing everything I can—applying to jobs, calling around—but I keep hitting dead ends. Either I don’t hear back or they just don’t want me. It’s demoralizing, running in circles like this, and I’m just… exhausted.

Still, I’m going to keep applying. I need to find a job to supplement my freelance work. But when that happens, it’ll mean stepping back a bit from my online content. I hate that. It feels like undoing all the progress I’ve made growing my community and my paysites. But survival comes first. Keeping a roof over our heads, putting food on the table, and paying bills takes priority.

I’ll still be doing commissions, working on my comic, and streaming when I can—but please forgive me if things aren’t as consistent once I find other work.

If anyone wants to help out, I’m open for commissions. You can find my Terms of Service, prices, and queue list (Trello) at my Linktree:

I also have a $1 donation tier on both Patreon and SubscribeStar for anyone who wants to pitch in. Perks begin at $3.

I don’t like asking for handouts—I’d much rather work for what I earn. If you're interested, please feel free to reach out.

Thank you so much for reading, and to anyone willing to lend a hand—whether through support, commissions, or just spreading the word—I appreciate you more than words can say.

Hey everyone,

I really don’t like asking for help like this—I hate it, honestly. And yet, here I am again, in a tough spot. Since March, I’ve been doing everything I can to find a job, but I haven’t had any luck. Right now, I’m struggling to cover my bills for the month. Winter is always the hardest, especially with the holidays, and this year has been no exception.

Commissions are my main source of income right now, and if you like my work, I’d love the opportunity to create something special for you. It could be a personal piece, a gift for someone else, or whatever you have in mind. Every commission helps me get closer to stability. If you're interested, feel free to reach out to me on Discord or Telegram, and we can discuss details.

Here’s how to reach me and a link to my Terms of Service if you’re thinking of commissioning me:

• Telegram: https://t.me/codyf0xx
• Discord: https://discord.gg/FUgM4hq3Mj
• Terms of Service: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18hvh95kNfVaI1EAJe2L4G0zNnvDhvRrU5g-_aiB59WQ/edit?usp=sharing

I also have a Patreon and a Subscribestar.adult page, where I’m working toward my goal of making art a full-time career. Subscribing gets you access to my work before it’s public, exclusive comic pages, and more. If you’re interested and can afford to, becoming a subscriber would mean so much to me.

Keep in mind you must be 18 or older to join.

• Patreon: https://patreon.com/codyf0xx
• Subscribestar.adult: https://subscribestar.adult/codyf0xx

If you’re able to donate instead, I’d be incredibly grateful. Every bit helps and goes directly toward keeping the lights on and getting through this tough time. You can donate here: https://paypal.me/KuroWatanoshi. Please include "donation" in the memo box if you decide to help this way.

Please don’t feel pressured—if you can’t afford to, I completely understand. Even just sharing this post with others who might be interested in supporting me makes a big difference.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. This year has been incredibly difficult, but I’m doing everything I can to keep going. Your support, in any form, truly means the world to me.

With gratitude,

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share that yesterday, on October 9th, at 8:40 PM CST, I was informed that my grandmother passed away. This is a difficult time for my family, and while I’m doing my best to process it, I’ve always struggled with grieving in the same way others do. It’s left me feeling a bit confused, unsettled, and, at times, like I don’t belong in the moment. But that’s something I’ll continue to work through on my own.

Right now, things are going to be challenging for me and my family—emotionally, mentally, and financially—as we navigate this loss together. I might not be as present as usual, and I hope you can forgive me if I seem distant.

That said, I have my comic pages posts scheduled in advance, so there shouldn’t be any delays on that front. I’ll do my best to keep everything on track. In the meantime, I have some work to focus on and a job interview coming up on the 10th, which I’m hoping will help me stay afloat during this time. With that may also come with some challenges in upload schedule. While I will do my best to post my art on time, forgive me if I don't post artwork and commissions here on time.

Thank you for your understanding and support. Rest in peace, Grandma—you will be missed.

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share something personal with you all. Recently, my grandmother’s health has taken a serious turn for the worse (Read this journal for context), and she has now been placed in hospice care. The doctors have confirmed that there’s nothing more they can do for her cancer, and while they haven’t given us a specific timeline, she won’t be coming home.

I’ll admit, I wasn’t particularly close to her growing up, but seeing how much this is affecting my father, uncle, and brother, who all lived with her, has been incredibly tough. Watching them go through this and feeling their pain has been one of the hardest parts for me. I’m not always great at dealing with loss in the same way others around me do, and I sometimes feel like I should be reacting more emotionally. But no matter how I process it, I’m here to support my family and give them whatever comfort I can during this difficult time.

As a result, things may be a little unpredictable for me in the coming days. I plan to continue posting my comic updates as usual every Monday, but if I miss a day here or there, I hope you’ll understand that my priority right now is to be there for my family. I’ll do my best to keep things on schedule, but please bear with me if there are any delays.

Thank you all so much for your understanding, and for being a part of this journey with me. Your support means a lot, especially during times like this. I’ll keep you all updated as things progress.

This month and year so far has been very not good for me haha. On top of rent increase, and not having enough money as normal. My area has been under blizzard for a while and my car has been frozen to the point where it is having trouble starting. So likely, I will have to make my rent with commissions this month.

If you also like the art I do and comics I make, I do have a patreon where you can support me and help me reach my goal of doing art full-time. Go ahead and check it out here

Thanks for your time, and have day :3
