I can understand the separation a bit.

Pinups are more there for the appreciation and the enticement alone, while fetish art is purely there for shameless indulgence, often to extremes.

As for the art burnout... maybe take some time to draw up more personal stuff instead of commissions here and there? I know you said you don't have motivation for art, but that's all I can think of for advice.

As someone who prefers to use FA since bsky and twitter isnt as great when it comes to browsing galleries, I hope that you'll eventually upload it here as well. I gave you a watch on your other account as well, just in case that happens.

Yeah, gallery sites with folder systems are the best. Can't stand scroll sites.

Honestly, with FA's proto-tagging/blacklist system, I could probably get away with uploading whatever I want just on this account.
Still, having the strict account separation is useful for keeping things super ordered.

I’m for preg stuff once in a while. Did some tasteful pics with a few of my ladies being pregnant and a couple a bit more spicy! ;)

It makes sense you want to give yourself some passion, though pregnancy isn't a (degenerate) fetish in and of itself. It's how it's drawn like other content.

I suppose what's happened is what happens to many artists who become successful, and it's up to oneself to decide how much one wants to do commissions versus their own content. I'm fully in support in you wanting to draw more for yourself over others. I get it's an income thing as well since it may be covering many expenses like rent and vehicle stuff. So there's a limit.

The most important thing is to give yourself some time and space to process it all as your health and livelihood is what's important over drawing everyone's characters. It's honestly nice seeing you draw more of your own characters. I worry some artists just become commission artists (drawing and posting mostly or only commissions.) feeling similar feelings you do where it becomes more work and repetition over a fun hobby.

Ba da ba ba baaaa, I’m preggin’ it~ 🎶

lmao

Good idea! But I do think you should do something with the FA account, I'd love to support that art but have none of those socials-

Same here.

I think changing things up will help to some degree, I know what helped me was doing some personal sketches and just leaving them unfinished, moving from one idea to the next, getting it out and moving on because I could always circle back to it later if I wanted to clean it up. This is actually something I learned from a friend of mine.

yuh was gonna ask the same as a few others, will the new art be posted on your main account on fa? or a new account? or just on X/bluesky? I'll give a follow on bluesky at least :) but FA has a great gallery layout, but definitely like both sides of art. there's a spot for classy pinups that are suggestive and not just nsfw

I'd love to see your preg stuff! <3 I hope you do upload at least some here to FA, as I don't have a Twitter or BlueSky. And that's a tough thing about doing what you love to do for work... eventually it just feels like work, the passion goes away. I'm sure you cope with it in your own way, but I always tell folks dealing with burn out to take some time for yourself and draw what you like, whether it be a project, doodling nothing specific, whatever, even if it's just five minutes of doing what you want.

I wouldn't consider pregnant to be degenerate but I'll see what pops up, hoping for lactation and watersports, but not holding my breath for the latter.

Degeneracy is in the eye of the coomer.
I heavily sexualize/idealize the state/process and figure it probably ends up in a heavily unrealistic place.
Believe it or not, I've never been around a pregnant woman, but I get the feeling it's not like what I see under the e621 tag lmao

And you are correct, pee isn't for me.

I hope you find something to help with the burnout! Maybe taking a long break or something? Exploring some new hobbies? Getting back into old hobbies?

i would love to see pregnancy art from you here...!

If it provides a safe home on FA for it, then I'm all for an FA account for pregnancy fetish content! And of course, I'd love to help populate that gallery one day.

I think tagging, blacklist and some folders ought to be enough but I can see why some might want a separate account.

Dipping back into preg again? Nice!
