you don't have to be good, you need to be not terrible. coomers have very low standards, especially the more niche it is. if you are doing normal stuff, you are competing with thousands of artists all across the world, so competition is fierce. some of these guys take their stuff very seriously. these days any autist obsessed with a fetish and a $80 tablet can learn to draw, so the standard has gone up across the board.

Sure, getting picky with followers and caring about such insignificant stuff as what people like to fap to is up to you. In my opinion, coomer followers are one of the best people to have on social media. I see them as a gift.

As a coomer myself, I draw softcore coomer stuff all day and I have a bunch of coomer followers on my Twitter and Patreon. They all smash my retweet\follow\share button like there's no tomorrow. I also noticed that they are one of the most pleasant and experienced people to do work with so it's easier to interact with them. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't have gained 50k followers in 5 months.

But that's because I draw coom. If you're trying to make it with your non-coomer art then there are other ways to get noticed. (Or you could draw coom for a little bit, then switch to non-coom like pic related artist.)

And to begin with, you shouldn't be drawing to pursue something as nebulous as a follower count or money. It's a craft you pursue because it's personally fulfilling. The amount of followers and likes should be secondary to that. You shouldn't pick up drawing with the sole/primary intent of money either, because I assure you that there are plenty of other better paying career paths where you'll have an easier time.

You've been talking to someone else, I'm the one who mentioned getting commissions. Only just now brought the site back up, I haven't posted since >>6489383.
So, let me be clear about something. Obviously if I regularly get commissions my art at least has appeal, but I don't consider myself highly skilled. It's just not all about aimlessly grinding and hoping people will care that you did. I get commissions because of networking, targeting a specific niche, and because once you start getting things off the ground, you'll end up with clients who regularly come back. Also, while I'm not opposed to posting work in principle, I do have a problem with the reason you want to see it. I don't want you to look at my art, treat it as some sort of benchmark, and give yourself false expectations based on that. If you really insist I can just message you on Pixiv or something, but I feel like you're risking a harmful mindset that I don't wish to promote.

I think I can probably draw that in about 2 hours.

It looks like you only put out 3 images on average per month. For growth purpose, you might need to consider catering to certain audience and increase release frequencies would help get your stuff in front of eyeballs.

Of course, having high quality always helps, porn or not.The fact that you on the one hand says that "literally everyone" told you that its easy mode and quality doesn't matter, and then says you don't want to hear about people talking about quality feels like you are selective about what you wanted hear. I would never tell you that, you should draw what you are interested in and tailor your approach to cultivate an audience that align with your own.

Its really unfortunate that you are suspended on social, because there is where I get majority of my commission proposals, however unlike the other anon I was not able to dedicate much time to commission because I would rather focus my down time on my personal projects.

[Anonymous No.6489942]

If you're looking for commission work, you're more or less already there in the baseline for quality. If socials are off the table, you would benefit from engaging in some community that strongly appreciates having artwork made on demand, preferably one that lines up with your interests.

Lacks line confidence. You have generally got things going in the right direction but you need to not make composite ("hairy") lines.
>>6489478
>>6489618
For coloring, you need to learn your tools a bit better. That as a completed image should only take you 3-4 hours of work at the absolute most. Things like using masks, auto-color tools, how to paint bucket effectively, and so on immensely helps with that kind of cel shading you're doing.
Try disabling Ctrl+Z for a month.


Basically your problem is that you are taking too long to complete each stage of a drawing. Accept your imperfections with the knowledge that producing art faster makes you better.
Making 5, increasingly-detailed sketches overlaid on top of each other using confident strokes takes less time than the 2-3 you did there using unconfident strokes.

Additionally your commission sheet needs to have its basics easily grasped from a twitter/deviantart/etc thumbnail. Offered levels of polish and prices primarily. Never use "percentages" to change pricing, and discounts look better than additional fees.

Liste, it took me 5 days because I did it by combining 5 different pictures.
And some of those references aren't anatomically correct so I had to take reference for my reference
Look at the hair for example. There is no interaction between the legs and hair because I back then, cannot figure out how and it would take me 2 more days to figure it out.
(I know how to do it now, though)

Of course copying would just take hours.

Should be pretty straightforward. If you're looking to do NSFW, for example, mingle in fetish communities. There's plenty of people out there with disposable income looking to have work done for fan art, original ideas/characters, or whatever niche interest they can't satiate with a simple google search. Just depends on what you want to do. Whatever platform you're comfortable with; forums, discord, w/e. Share your work there and you can eventually pique someone's interest.

It isn't though, and even worse you're stuff doesn't even have the appeal to hide your errors. You're bad and beg. A dangerous combination.

This. I personally know artists with less than a thousand followers, yet they insistently land industry gigs and find art buyers on the regular. People obsess too much with finding easy routes when none such truly exists, or assume you need a certain amount of followers to land a certain kind of income. It's complete nonsense.

Imagine seeking validation from other artists. Take the degenpill and start making money unlike 99% of those "artists" you worship. After you're done drawing for yourself, art only has value if someone cares about it, and you got somebody to care.
Go to some incel art fair if you want to show off to other artists.

It depends from artist to artist. I've known quite a few coomer artists that have either stagnated, or regressed in terms of artistic skill, grinding out porn.

It is important to remember that your work and the audience it attracts is a reflection of your values and interests. If you're feeling unfulfilled with the audience you're attracting by drawing porn, it might be time to reassess what kind of art you want to create and the message you want to convey through it. It's okay to explore and experiment with different themes, but it's important to find something that truly resonates with you and aligns with your values. Additionally, it might be helpful to consider the kind of audience you want to reach and what kind of work they are interested in.

How do I advertise paywall porn as an otherwise sfw artist? Posting cropped images? Make nude versions of normal images? Just have an inconspicuous link in my profile?

pyw, saying this nonmaliciously. Very curious what kinds of work attracts other artists.

I was pretty much in the same boat, though strangely after I left NSFW and rebranded, I was starting to get followed by some pretty big personalities. One with over a million.

You are both right and wrong. You need talent regardless, because if you didnt need talent, your job would be filled by more less skilled retards, this works not just for porn, but in basically every aspect of our society. Just look at AI slop, it has its audience and yet most AI troons are not nearly as successful as the average artist that draws, because their job is easy so their market gets oversaturated much easier. Yes, coomers have generally lower standards then people searching for art that is not coomery, but to be successful coomer artist you still need at least some talent and make your pictures at least somewhat appealing. If you were not doing coomer art, you would get 0 or 2 followers instead of 50, your art just sucks ass and making the competition easier wont lift you from the bottom of the barrel. You have to either grind, use tricks, be creative with fetishes, give your characters lot of character, or some other stuff. Coomers might coom to bad art, but if there is somebody who draws the same stuff as you but better, they will prefer to spend time watching their coom, hence why your only followers are coomers that favourite every single picture they click on that does not kill their boner.

Good advice anon is good advice.
I'd add, if you watch /ic/ makes a pretty good baseline for "Do I really want to attract this audience?"

[Anonymous No.6507592]

Wait wait wait. So you mean to tell me you did art because you wanted to do something you wanted to do - and then drew only things that you didn't?

Real bum move there.

Pretty much the reason I stopped creating NSFW content. That, and seeing the people I once respected and how they acted on discord servers.

What type of art tends to attract other artists.
I assume its the type of stuff that tends to be pretty difficult to draw, like an artist looks at it and goes "darn he is skilled" because he knows the piece was difficult to draw, something like "a woman standing in a weird pose, drawn from below, fish eye lens also 2 glowing angler fish like antenaee but curved and act as the light source for the drawing, also there is a very reflective ball (similar to M.C. Eschers auto-portrait in terms of reflectiveness)"
