seiga.nicovideo but the navigation seems fucked up

All other sites suffer from awful layouts to navigate around or from being too dead to sustain an actual community. And in like 90% of the cases those end up used to repost pieces that were or will be posted on their pixiv/twitter.
Off the top of my head I can recall: seiga.nicovideo, plurk.com, pawoo.net and nijie.info.

Go browse futaba's oekaki board if you want something underground.

fc2 or hatena blogs but id imagine you'd have to dig really, really deep to find someone who consistently updates.
i've also seen artists who post exclusively on instagram, mostly traditional kind of works for niche fandoms outside of touhou. mostly kids or fujos.

unfortunately for most artists, for them to reach the average person they have to congregate on "mainstream" sites. like sure you'll have people posting on smaller platforms but like who's going to go there. it's like advertising in the middle of the woods.
if your goal is to just find people who draw specific things, use the search tools available on those sites or just lurk around. there's always one person who has like maybe 10~ followers and pumps out crazy good art.

fediverse in general is a good place to find jp artists, but you'll have to sign up for lots of instances to fully see everything because of gay mods and blocking server shenanigans.

In the early 2000's I went really deep down the OekakiBBS rabbit hole, before even 4chan.
There used to be so many of them, with so much fantastic art. I bet the elves still have some active communities.

Oh, all the magical hours spent drawing Love Hina and Digimon characters with a mouse.

Never forget how raw and unfiltered the early western oekaki community was. Never forget all the cub scat, muppet cannibalism, powerpuff girl abuse and pokemon murder.

Yeah, it was a great time to be on the internet. I remember how having a drawing tablet was everyone's wet dream.

>pokemon murder.
Fuck, I remember an artist who only ever drew shit like this. Bronzecatworld. Turned out to be a pedo. Not a lolicon, but an actual pedo groomer.

Every now and then I see anons bring up the "animecore" people antics and it's like being reaffirmed that I wasn't hallucinating all of that insanity.
