A few months ago, I shared the news that Pixiv was banning real accounts. 

Today was my turn.


My account is locked because I uploaded a photorealistic image.

I'm deleting over a thousand images uploaded to pixiv one by one (pixiv doesn't support bulk deletion...).

I don't know if the account will be revived, but once it is, pixiv will only have 2D images up, not photorealistic images.


There will probably be less photorealistic images uploaded to Patreon and more 2D images.

If my subscribers are disappointed and unsubscribe because of this, I have nothing to say about it, I'm sorry. I guess that's how it goes.

This post will also be visible to my free Patreon subscribers, and if you'd like to see some free photorealistic images, head over to DeviantArt.

Also, some people have asked me why only nudity is posted, and I've found that any depiction of sexual activity that isn't just nudity is flagged by Patreon and recommended for removal. I also removed images that depicted masturbation with a simple dildo.

Once again, I'd like to apologize to our subscribers.

There will be a decrease in the amount of photorealistic images, but I'll still be posting them.


I knew it was coming, but it feels bad when it does.

I'll still be uploading photorealistic paintings to Patreon, but they may be less frequent than before.

I'm not sure what Pixiv's definition of 'photorealistic' is. Since reading this notice, I have looked at some of the accounts that have posted work similar to yours and so far they have not been locked (although some may already have been). It occurred to me that I have said before that I don't like 'over-coloured' work, but maybe these creators are daring to do so. I don't think your work is 'over-coloured' compared to the work of other accounts, so maybe the AI monitoring Pixiv has decided that. Either way, it's not an interesting situation. But still waiting for you to post your work.
