Like it's been said many times, he didn't ghost anyone. He posted on his, now deleted, website that he got a job offer from one of the big circles on dlsite. As to what position he got offered, what circle that was, and on what he will be working, he didn't say, but he did say that he is going to accept the offer. Shortly after that, he deleted the website and his dlsite circle. I'm guessing he was under a contract and wasn't allowed to say anything.
So yeah... It sucks, but truth be told, I wasn't feeling his latest works. I kinda disliked the newer art he was working on. He said it was a more realistic approach to drawing women but it wasn't sitting right with me. It looked too weird, especially the face and hands.
