Should I post more than just my characters/stories?
4 years ago
Hey, everybody! I have a question for you all.
As you may have noticed, all of the stuff I post on this account is either art of my own characters or stories I've written. Back before Tumblr set itself on fire, this worked well, since this account could be focused just on that while my Tumblr would act as a collection for all of the art I get regardless of who's in it. However, ever since Tumblr's porn ban, I haven't really had any other accounts on sites that would be suitable for general art galleries. Lately, I've been wondering if I should start posting everything to this account, and not just my writings and stuff of my characters.
This is where you guys come in. I'd like to know your opinion on whether or not I should start adding two categories of stuff to my occasional upload sprees:
1. Art that isn't of my characters. This will mostly consist of generic characters and Rule 34 art, although it may occasionally include others' OCs if they give me permission. This art will be properly categorized, of course, to keep my gallery easily searchable for people who just want to check out my characters.
2. Art I've drawn. I've been dabbling in digital art since last Spring, and while the quality still isn't all that great, I feel like I've improved to the point where I can start posting some of it publicly.
So, what do you guys think? I'd appreciate it if you guys could leave a comment below, so I know what the general opinion of my watchers is.

As for your digital art start up, I think you should definitely go for it. Even if the quality isn't as great to some people, you should keep a positive and constructive mindset. Say something like, "I have room to improve, I can do better," instead of, "Man my art sucks, I should quit before I embarrass myself." Don't let other people bring you down either.
