Considering the majority of what you upload seems to be commissions, my guess is, not everybody likes the characters you were commissioned to draw, or all the wild shit with various augments or mutations. You're straying into more niche territory, so of course less people will like it.

If it's all personal stuff, same rules apply. Just hit that balance, you have to enjoy some of what you do, so do it for your enjoyment, not everyone elses.

Interestingly enough a few of the latest uploads i did on my own. As gifts to people in my server. But thanks - less niche things will make sure more people will like it.

Yeah, people have differents tastes and your art has a certain je-ne-sais-quoi to it. Same for me. I don't draw nudity and people tend to only watch other people over one or two drawings. Draw for you and what you like, not for anybody else.

My most popular drawing on IB for example is an outdated drawing of Cream the Rabbit I've made over 5-6 years ago. That's because people over there prefer cubs, obviously. If I don't draw cub art (Which I tend to not really do), people won't be as much enthusiastic over them.

Think of it like this. You draw a certain type of drawing and it will attract certain types of people that like the stuff that you do and those people will remain loyal to you no matter what because they love what you do. Think about those people and most importantly, you instead of trying to cater to everybody else.

...Also, I think IB is dead and thought about quitting the website but eh, that's just my opinion lolol.

I actually post to IB too. And to e621. For more people to see my art. But that is a point i failed to consider. There will be a group of people who will enjoy what i do becouse that is what i was doing for most of the time. I really should value them over the people who just drop by for one or two pieces of mine.

I should specify more about what i want to figure out - what does my art lack. I can always improve the anatomy, the shading, the composition and such things, but there ought to be a thing ive never even considered before. Like in my discord i was told to make the bg emphasize what is the mood of the drawing. And perhaps make said moods more obvious, intense. These kind of advises is what im wlooking for

Hell yeah, there's always room for improvement! I've been drawing for 15 years and getting the anatomy right is still hard to this day. And in my opinion, I don't think Backgrounds emphasize the mood. I think the emotions of the characters are more important than backgrounds. BGs are just additions to the piece you're drawing but again, that's just my opinion.

Just keep on doing what YOU love to do :D The rest doesn't really matter. If you just draw because you want to be popular, you'll end up being a hardcore perfectionist and nothing you do will ever be right because that's what you'll think.

I'd agree with your discord on mood and emoting your characters more. Definitely an area you could greatly benefit at improving on.

Other than that, I say working on dialogue would help as awell. If you were to ask me, it's the one thing that ever falls flat in your pieces.
I don't know a shorter or better way to word this, but sometimes, the things the characters say are things no person would say. Case in point: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/47128651/

To quote:
"Don't mind us~
It's just two herm sisters having public sex...
You're welcome to watch though~"

From what I understand, you wanted the dialog in this piece to convey the following:
•The two having sex are herms and sisters
•The one receiving the blowjob is aware that others can see
•The one receiving the blowjob doesn't mind that others watching

I don't want to sugar coat it, the second line is just bad. It doesn't feel anywhere near as casual as the doodle looks, and the line literally explains what's going on in the piece. She's announcing to the viewer exactly what it is they are viewing. The only way it would be worse is if the text just read "I'm getting a blowjob!"

The good news is dialog, unless hand-written in an art piece is easy to fix. I think here, it would be better if the one who could talk spoke more about the girl giving. She can't speak for herself after all, not with that cock in her mouth.
I'll just spitball an idea for you to give you an idea of what I mean:

"Hehe, please excuse my little sis~
Horny girl couldn't wait until we got back in the car.
But if you felt like watching though...~"

Your art is quite nice already. I believe working on the dialog might be the fastest way to improve the overall ensemble of your works.

It can be incredibly hard to find out what people REALLY love and will spread in a heartbeat, but I'll offer my humble point of view as someone who has been in the fandom for a couple decades. There are a few themes in your gallery that seem to do better and that, as larger trends, seem to be popular among furries for some reason: incestual themes (especially sister/sister or bro/sis), inexplicable horsecock, exhibitionist/public sex, and intersexed characters.

Your style is great. When I first saw a piece from you, the lithe ladies, cute faces, and just *something* about your art style was attractive. I believe this was one of the first pieces I saw and remains one of my faves from you: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/38875233/ Great proportions, very sexy girl, and tones of sis/sis shenanigans, all things I love to see.

This one as well: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/38134658/ Semi-public, the awesome description that shows deep affection between a couple, the sexy pose of his arm under her breasts, her well-sized cock and that amazing cumshot! Incredibly sexy.

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/40473544/ Not much to say about this except clothing bulges are amazing. A clear large-sized bulge on an otherwise very feminine, petite, and cute girl? Out-of-this-world hot.

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/42429988/ This is one of my absolute faves of yours, mostly for two reasons: I love big balls and your drew them VERY well here, and showing that sexy backsack with a cute vagina tucked in on the bottom gal is super hot to me.

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/43576393/ Another most-favorite of mine, a very well-drawn character. Simply well done and attractive, but I REALLY love that dick design. Awesome.

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/46661551/ A sexy hermaphrodite gal pleasuring herself while showing everything and being messy about it? Incredibly hot. Her proportions are great and overall just a sexy design that you drew well in that difficult pose.

I've favorited quite a bit in your gallery and it's been great to see how your style continues to evolve and become ever-more sexy, cute, and attractive. I find myself perking up and really enjoying whenever I see your name in my new submissions.

But of course, I'm just one person. I'm also quite a recluse at that, so discovering the mysteries of how to get that popular reach to many people will probably always elude me. But unusual characters and extreme hyper themes (cock/balls, breasts, other body parts, etc.) can be pretty niche and won't always draw a crowd, but some artists are extremely popular for it. The few hyper pieces you do appeals to me, but might not to many. It's easy to *say* you should draw what makes you happy, but that doesn't always pay the bills. I personally think your art and gallery is very attractive and I really enjoy almost all of what you crank out. I'd love to commission you someday, but my life is also going through some important change and I don't get art often anymore.

Continuing to learn and evolve is a great condition to have and I love seeing your art evolution through your gallery here. Keep it up, you're providing a great gift to your fans! One thing I might suggest is posting across a wide array of sites to get more exposure. Programs like Postybirb can make that much less tedious these days, though I don't know much about it.

edit: I see you're already using Postybirb, so nevermind that. XD

Damn... Thanks a lot. This will be very helpful and glad you like my arts~

For me, personally, it just has to do with the content and characters in the piece. Do I like the kinks/situation of the piece? Are the characters appealing? The latter being a major factor. If I’m not a fan of the character I usually won’t like/fav something.

Very reasonable. Thanks for the input~

Im not sure if this'll be of any help, but I really enjoy the amount of expression that you are able to put on a character's face. That and the particular style that you have just attracts me to the work. I always look forward to a new work from you as well. I don't really know what to recommend for improvements as I'm not an artist but I think some pieces could be more popular because of the character or scene unfortunately. Much of it may come from simple personal preference which is really hard to determine and hard to work around. So I say keep improving at what you want to and try a bunch of different scenes and stories. Hope this helped a even just a little bit!

I tend to lurk more than actually fave which is a bad thing on my end but one of my favourite features of your art has always been scenes/comics/mini stories. Love stuff that has context and/or dialogue.

Of course multi-character scenes have always been something you've done very well.

It really boils down to kinks and they are so varied that it is tough to hit it on the head everytime.

I, personally, tend to enjoy herms doing herm things, so to say, preferrably when both sets of their genitals are visible.

There is no way to predict which pieces are going to be popular. Ever.
Even if you start making every picture a piece of MLP:FIM fanart and deliberately submit your art to a pony porn advertiser you still won't be able to guarantee that a picture of a popular pony will do twice as well as a picture of a pony that's half as popular.

The best advice I have is to read HBeats' blog about being an NSFW artist and learn about how to be good at this line of work. https://hbeatsart.com/category/blog/ They've been doing this for quite a while now and have generously written up a bunch of useful and interesting blog entries about how to get on in this business.

Do wanna see more herm sisters fun

'w'! Oh! Draw what you find enjoyable. I'm a writer, so I don't get much attention at all; this holds true for the taboo stuff twicefold.

So do what you enjoy, and if people enjoy it too, consider that a victory on two fronts. If you do commissions be wary of who commissions you. Not just because scammers exist, but because some furs have friend groups that can overwhelm you with commissions, or will judge you for not getting something right. These kinds of toxic friend circles are the ones you need to try to keep out of your life, because they're not worth the effort to deal with.

The themes you focus on also attract a certain group of watchers. Voyeurism, Exhibitionism, Incest, and Intersex all are usually some degree of taboo to a majority of the fandom. If you did more vanilla stuff you might get more watchers, but if it's not fun, is it worth it?

'w'! I think your work is unique, and I enjoy your style. As I said before, I want to see you grow and see you enjoy your work.

Looked at your submissions going back about a year and... I'm going to guess the theme of your most popular stuff is "guilty pleasure". The themes Junkpaw just listed all contribute toward that point. I personally found you through searching "enhibitionism" on E621.

As others have mentioned, futa stuff is generally liked. However, the more niche the subject, the less audience it'll get, but that smaller audience will stick around for longer. Because everyone draws futa, but someone discreetly tentacling their shy friends in public under the table? I will follow you forever just for that. That said, I ended up favorite-ing that on E621 since that version has the full sequence in one image.

Take that as you will. I'm just one perspective and on the internet, people who don't comment are the majority.

I favorite a majority of your works. I suppose I am into what others are calling your niche.

There are so many factors involved in a pieces' popularity, including those that have nothing at all to do with the quality of the work posted (like the time and day of the week you post, world events, etc.).

My advice is:
1) Draw what makes you happy in the hopes of attracting an audience that enjoys what you draw.
2) Post semi-regularly.
3) Engage with those who comment meaningfully. Take the time think about and respond to those who took the time to think about and comment on what you posted.
4) Take notice of those who've not commented before or who watch you based on the posting. Visit their profiles and take a glance at their galleries and favorites to get an idea of who your audience is and what they're into.
5) This is not one I necessarily follow myself, but I have observed that you can build a following if your works share a common thematic universe. It doesn't need to be a comic or series, but having a stable of characters that shows up regularly gives an audience something to relate with and become attached to. People will then look out for works involving their favorite character, no matter what they are.

Damn... there is so much input. Thanks guys! I didnt expect so much of it and so many sound pointers. Im gonna use your advice to the best of my ability and hopefully will enjoy what i do even more and produce better art, which is the whole point of this journal

I personally find a lot of enjoyment from the description of the piece, the short stories or quips of information about what's happening in the art make it a lot more interesting. I love it when you try new concepts, recently one of your arts had a charecter with a malfunctioning cybernetic dick, that's a wonderful concept, but without the description, the concept would've been lost, and with it, the piece would have been more bland. A little dialog can go a long way towards making a good piece great!
