Interest check - Character Interactions w/ My Characters?
5 months ago
Hey what's up I have questions for you- yes, you personally.
Sit down, stay a minute, enjoy the communal salt lick.
Alright, now that you're comfortable,
Every so often I see an artist who will do things like draw YCHs with their character included, or offer character 'dates' and whatnot. I think this is kinda cute, and it's nice because the artist gets to drawn their own character more while still keeping things varied with other character designs and themes. It seems like a happy medium of fresh and familiar.
I'd like to do this potentially, but I'm not sure of the reception it would get.
So, opinions?
When you see artists offering to draw their own character with yours, does it seem fun or does it soil your opinion of the artist? Does it change if money isn't involved? For example, a free "share your character and I'll draw them with mine" vs a paid YCH? Is there any other things that you feel changes the dynamic, like how well known an artist is, or how much people like a specific character?
Whatever thoughts you have on it I'd like to hear, since I find the idea intriguing but don't know how money being a part of it affects/doesn't affect things.
If you have no strong opinion on this but wanna respond anyway,
whats your second favourite colour and do you know any fun tongue twisters

A "Interact with my OC" kinda thing or a "Ask my OC" then I doodle the answer
Altho I never got around to it
I do like the Ask my OC ones, but I'm not sure how well that format works on here?
Seems more like a Twitter/Tumblr/Bluesky thing, none of which I post to an an artist
For FA you could always use the comment section for the questions, be it a submission or a journal ^^
DeviantArt, even way back years ago, felt like just yelling into the void.
theres actually another upside, its sometimes easier to decide if you want to get the ych when its not an entirely blind pick
It seems like maybe I'm just over analyzing though, and worrying for nothing.
I hadn't actually considered that, but it does make sense. Especially since with ychs the whole point is you already know what you're going to get.
