I don’t post much on this forum. I’m a traditional artist, but I haven’t shared any of my works here precisely because this type of art isn’t getting much attention. Each drawing requires a lot of work and knowledge behind it (if it’s done properly) and years of training. I don’t think AI is bad or inadequate, but it’s true that among so many pieces, most of them are boring and completely lack that spark that makes us feel something when we look at them.
Erotically speaking, there isn’t much to see either, and overall it’s a complete waste of time. Forty images of Marge in the same pose aren’t satisfying for me.
I think a separate section for traditional art and AI work would be more than welcome. Also, some actual feedback on posts instead of just a “Nice.” I used to draw every day, but now it’s been a year since I last did. It discourages me to see my work fall into complete oblivion, and all my recent pieces end up just filling my computer’s hard drive. I feel like right now they won’t see the light of day.
I also want to say that this used to be an altruistic community, but nowadays you see many artists who, as soon as they gain a bit of recognition, start monetizing their content in a completely selfish way. I avoid those people on the forum as well. Supporting an artist’s work through Patreon or any other platform is one thing, but it’s something entirely different to post just to funnel people into “your great gallery of repetitive, soulless art” behind a paywall.
I hope it’s clear—I’m using a translator.
