Like, 1 in 10 peoole who look at my works favorite. Here, there, anywhere. I have the skill and I'm backed up by many, but i must be blind to whats holding me back.

I've assumed it was my lack of coloring skills, or maybe my sometimes very low volume of posts; maybe I'm just boring... But recently i think its because i hardly ever make rule34.

I mean--i get it: use popular icons to boost my own popularity--but if you follow me hoping i make more pokemon porn or something, you should know that i consider r34 a crutch intended to attract young people. And not only am i grown (and dont waant kids in particular looking at porn i make because its more relatable to them), but i dont want that to be my drawing point.

I would much rather draw genuine furs over someone else's profitable, intellectual property. Thats not a dig at artists who do but but i wanna be a famous one that doesnt.

Lately, ive been working on self improvement because mechanical skill isnt good enough on its own. And frankly, i should have been coloring the whole time, even if i dont like coloring as much as i like sketching. But I can handle forced regimens.

Anyway, im just wingeing because its been like 22 years doing this. Ive been thinking: a job i hate would just be namy times more lucrative... And there's insurance (which i need) sooo...

EDIT: im not saying i might quit doing this! But i dont think i can capitalize on it.
