>>>>He does have a new dg pic up celebrating the fifth anniversary--nearly two weeks late, but I imagine the guy's probably pretty busy. I've seen this happen to any number of other artist sites over the years... I assume you've browsed the web for a long time as well, and if you haven't then it can't be all that surprising to see a talented artist turn his attention to other endeavors. Some of my favorite artist sites have, at times, completely disappeared off of the face of the earth...
Many of these artists are character designers or layout artists for software companies or gaming developers. Some artists have left the online world of drawing jerk-worthy images because their job is much more lucrative... and who wouldn't? Other artists stop drawing free jerk-worthies and turn to doujinshi; which I'm sure most 4channers are aware, of when you go to an artist site and there's no "gallery" section... just a doujinshi section.
I'm looking for one particular artist site now (sample image left), and have been doing so, which was a favorite of mine for some time... but it seems to have vanashed. After sparse updates for two years, I'm guessing the artist just decided to move on. It's a fact of life: Porn and Hentai may last forever, but certain/specific Porn and specific Hentai may not.
Another example, is [http://dagashiya.sakura.ne.jp/; sample image right], which seems to have vanashed out of thin air. The artist seems to have just pulled all of his files from his terminal... lord knows the speculation we can do as to how/why this happened. Another example is the artist's "azz" site whose artwork was always in-progress... sample image middle.
Shit happens.
