BlackJrXIII Animation, Artist, And Future Work Discussion (NSFW)

Do you have any idea whats going on with that Friendship4ever project? Did he at least updates his fans since the preview back in July of last year? From his tumblr there seems to be no indication on that. How have people on the comment section reacted and does he even respond back to his fans anymore? He never seems to answer tumblr questions sadly. Thanks again for updating us non patreons :)

@Background Pony #FDAF  
Nope, he hasn’t mentioned anything about it, if I recall correctly, he also hasn’t mentioned anything about the V-Day CMC animation either.

@EPPony
 
Oh wow he really is doing his fans a disservice. I recently was glancing over the reward section and there are other high paid tiers. I honesty feel bad for those mlp fans hoping to win a raffle since it took him almost five months to finish the last short raffle one which was a disappointment due to the abrupt futa on female angle for the creampie scene.
 
When he starts getting back to his old way of getting stuff done, I will only be those $1 people because its not worth spending all of the money month if it takes months to finish a short raffle that used to take a month max. The last long raffle winner I believe is a human fan as well and its been over a year since they were announced. I would love to win a raffle from him as well, but its not worth blowing $5-$40 if I know it will take months to even be considered. For that money I might as well pay somebody to animate for me. I want to stress I am not bashing him as BlackJr is my favorite mlp futa animator, but sometimes you got to give them constructive criticism. He is basically a celebrity in the futa animation world especially with the money he is making.

@Background Pony #FDAF  
No doubt about it, but he really needs to do something, because as you say, he really is doing his fans a disservice with how long the raffles and the like are taking, plus, the older animations he has pending too (I still remember the Coco/Rarity animation he mentioned too).

@EPPony
 
He just uploaded to pornhub, another human animation that was supposed to be a pin up set which means it took at least 2-4 days of precious animating time. Based on his patreon posts and tumblr that last four animations have all been human related short loops with more on the way due to backlog of that $40 tier. I understand he does human works as well, but he is neglecting his largest fanbase and source on income on patreon being the MLP fans.
 
I wish there was a way to contact him through an IM, Discord, or Skype as he seems to not even talk to his patreons anymore directly and does not even respond to tumblr questions. If I could I would ask him nicely about it and such. Maybe if there was a way for him to see this thread. We must stress that we are not looking to make him feel bad and love his work, we are just concerned about whats going on with all of these delays and lack of MLP long content. Who knows maybe he has seen this thread and other comments on derpibooru, but like you said, were not holding our breath.

@Background Pony #FDAF  
Mhmm, I really do hope we at least get to see something mlp related from him eventually.

@EPPony
 
 
I dont know if you noticed yet but blackjrxii lost over 300 in the monthly donation amount. He still is making a nice sum but it looks like his mlp fans are taking notice of his lack of mlp content and constant delays. He is sadly turning into Tiarawhy, whose constant delays and unfulfilled promised caused Tiara to lose over $1000 in monthly donations.

@Background Pony #FDAF  
It does look like it’s shaping up to be that way, let’s just hope that doesn’t happen.

@EPPony
 
I agree as I dont want to lose black as an animator. Unlike Tiara I truly believe black is not lazy, what his problem is he gets to distracted by ideas and in order to please his fans such as creating a tier on patreon that causes even more massive delays. So its not so much black not working hard. Its more taking to much work.
 
Also I checked his patreon tiers again, again he did not do what he said he would do and remove the $40 commission tier that he even admitted at one point was taking too much of his time. SO now that patreon charged already for the month, that makes 3 more short loops for each of those who signed up for that tier being human fans it looks like still. That means he has to complete 6 more short loops as he was already on a backlog from the last few months. Honestly its depressing me. :( I actually had hopes for this year as black wanted to finally get back on scedule, but it looks like this year may be worse than last year.

@Background Pony #FDAF  
Yeah, if anything, that tier is the main source of his issues in terms of him making content in a timely manner, I really am hoping he removes it eventually, or it’ll bite him in the ass.

@Darktailsko  

 

 
You can use a prepaid visa gift card you can buy pretty much everywhere. Thats what i use for patreon.

Well, Black just uploaded two polls not too long ago.
 
Pinup for next month  
Who should Futa Twilight be doing
 
Personally, I do hope Coloratura wins, but I kind of doubt that’ll happen.
 
Kind of surprised to see people picking Dash in the second one, but that could change as the voting goes on.

@EPPony
 
Finally some mlp stuff. Did he mention what type of mlp animation the Twilight one will be and if it was futa on female? Also any updates on previous projects? Thanks

@Background Pony #FDAF
 
No updates on the older ones, but I have a feeling the Twi/whoever wins one will be futa on female.
 
Edit: I’m rather surprised Moondancer hasn’t blasted ahead in the second poll or Cheerilee for that matter, all things considering.

@EPPony
 
 
I saw there is a mamashy x flutters intro animation. Cant see the contents just the title of course, but it looks like he is finishing that animation up. Also regarding the twilight x dash poll I think RD won so much is because its been awhile since we saw animation with her same goes with the vinyl pinup. If you dont mind since you posted those polls if you can post a link to the mamashy intro. Thanks
 
Also I really hope to make it up to us that Black at least includes a cumshot in the Twilight MLP month animation as it been while since we had one.

@Background Pony #FDAF  
It’s only a pinup set of pics, however.

@EPPony
 
Apparently he said he got all of his short loops out of his system and will be working on commission now. Problem is those commissions are up to six animations and there is a big chance he will get carried away and turn those commissions into full blown animations like he did with the DV’A X Mercy animation. Plus that short raffle winner sound like a human fan. I think the name was something like Ryo which is very anime sounded = human animation. I could be wrong but I am not optimistic. The only glimmer of hope he said that he has more MLP animations to preview and the Mamashy X Fluttershy animation will have two more sex scenes including the original for three scenes in total.

@Background Pony #FDAF  
Yeah, I do have my eye on that animation, to be quite honest, hope it eventually comes out and, yeah, he might end up getting carried away again.

@EPPony
 
Did you see on tumbler he just bought Persona 5 and you know when he gets new video games he gets new ideas. Just when he said he got those short loops out of his system :(

@Background Pony #FDAF  
Yeah, I did, makes me at least hope some of those ideas are mlp related in regards to Persona 5.

@EPPony
 
 
Persona 5 is anime based and has nothing to do with MLP. Black is a huge fan of anime way before he started mlp. Its like candy to him lol. Persona 5 will temp him to make another human based loop. If you see the last four tumblr posts were all human and he even said those were ideas not commissions. Now if that was not bad enough he has six more loops that he owes his $40 tiers who are human fans coupled with Ryo’s short raffle animation, which means April may be another dud month sadly. I really hope I am wrong, but he needs to end that $40 now and maybe find a way to refund them money because his main MLP fans and even some human fans from delayed projects are being taken up by those $40 commissioners.
 
Since you a patreon maybe you kind kindly comment on one of his recent posts about him considering to end those $40 commissions? He has said in the past he may end it but has not fulfilled his promise. Maybe if more people complain about it he may even see its wasting time, delaying projects, and causing him unnecessary stress.

@Background Pony #FDAF  
Was just holding a little hope and saying, besides, you never know, though I do know of the Persona games, I have both 3 and 4 and have yet to beat them.
 
He hasn’t really been responding to people on Patreon, even the people who usually talk to have have said they haven’t heard from him in a while.
 
Though I do hope people at least voice their annoyance in regards to it.

@EPPony
 
I do notice that his posts way less frequently lately. Like it takes ten days or more for patreon post and over two weeks for a tumblr post. It gets many people antsy especially for those with high hopes. It would be nice to post every 4-7 days like he used to even if its just an update post or preview human or pony. Just the frequency of posting would be enough to hold us over despite the lack of pony projects

@Background Pony #FDAF  
Yeah, from the looks of it, something must have him tied up as to why his posting isn’t as frequent as usual, gaming and animating aside.

@EPPony
 
$40 commissions lol. Also all of those random ideas you saw posting in mass on tumblr. Plus you would think he has a new computer now so he can use one for animator/rendering and another for gaming which should speed up release. Guess not.
 
Also he was supposed to post another and “final” idea short loop according to him along with everything mlp preview he is working on last week in a day or teo. Its been over a week :(
