Yup, a question that has been bothering me for quite a long time.

Let's face the facts that both on D.A. and F.A. my fan-arts are way too popular than my regular works.

For example, a contest entry that I've been working hard on for Cylithren on D.A. has 59 favs and on F.A. only 3, while a fan-art of Michael Bay's Tranfsormers "One Shall Stand One Shall Fall" (D.A.) has 125 favs, and lazily done sketch of Scott Cawthon's Five Nights At Freddy's (F.A.) has 28 favs and on D.A. 26 favs.

I mean seriously, it seems like everyone adding me to watch list only to see more fan-arts from me (it doesn't even matter - Sonic, FNaF, TF, ect) instead of original works.
I may understand the fact of being crazed by a global fandom, I'm fan on multuple fandoms as well, but yet I'm still looking foward on personal fandoms of other people.

No, I'm not mad at those "crazed" ones, but still I always have a feeling that I'm just wasting my time by posting something original/personal that won't get any attention compared to the fan-arts.

But still if the fan-arts shall keep getting more attention than the rest and the biggest part of my art-works then I see no point of posting like anything.
