heloo, love ur art! any tips on how to get more established in nsfw monster/robot lover community? also wanted to say that i adore ur designs and wanted to know what inspires you?
Hi, first of all thanks kind anon. As for the tips, well..! it wasn't ever about growth and promotion for me, and you can definitely see it in my following, but i can say for sure that if you want to attract like-minded people, you gotta draw stuff that you like first and foremost. If you have a fandom interest, that definitely might help. Create smut that you want to see more of, engage with people who's content you enjoy and support others. I'm very lucky to have some great artists and long time followers to come back to me and repost my stuff although at the beginning i didn't have any connections in this community at all. That's a terrifying notion for an introvert, but to be seen you gotta reach. Just do your thing at your own tempo keeping it in mind. That's how i am with my little blog.
There are some boosting strategies and technicalities like regular reposts of your old art and participation in challenges, fanarts, but I'd recommend not to get lost in chasing views and likes, if it's feasible for u. Having a recognisable character or theme is a good thing as well! Trust me, you're not annoying for drawing your fav over and over.
And ah thanks again! If we're talking about my bots, i enjoy a scrappy and survivalistic vibe and a great part in it played a place where i grew up and gayms like borderlands, frostpunk, titanfall. I'm a beginner when it comes to designing robots, but i can definitely notice that often my references are special uniforms/weapons/big machinery. And war and guns! Guns and war! Yahoo.
