a while ago, someone asked for advice on gaining popularity on social media. The person gave some advice. but one part of the advice was join pixiv and use hagtags or something like that


Did anyone get that image with the advice on it? Or just any advice in general


(the artwork was just to get your attention, and no I don't know the artist)

>> No.7146584

I have been drawing for 3 years and I've got 2.8k followers in Pixiv. The tags are what brings you the viewers. First of all, people searching for art in Pixiv search their sought tags in search. You can only have 10 tags so make them count. Notice that if your post is R18, the R18 tag takes one tag meaning you have 9 tags to go for. I draw female wrestling so my most used tags are #wrestling and #catfight and their japanese counterparts. Ryona both in english and japanese are good too. But if the pic fearures popular character, I dont use #ryona but instead both japanese and english version for the character and their game/series.

The tags also affect if you get recommended in similar works of others and in the recommended artists.

When you tag your stuff, check the tags that applies to it. Use tags that have more works under them. When you search an english tag, Pixiv also suggest its japanese version. If you need to make a pick between english and japanese tag, japanese is usually better but do check which one has more works under it

Do any of you use your art to further important political movements, like a free Palestine or democratic socialism? How do you draw inspiration for that work! How do you make sure it’s seen both by supporters and, more importantly, opponents? What makes for a compelling piece that influences others?

I'm autistic, with ADHD. I can't focus on trying to get better at all or even come up with anything to draw without just giving up and going back to looking at my phone and doing something else.
I've legitimately never been able to commit myself to any serious hobby and have gotten lazy over the years with my only actual one which is writing and the only reason I'm good at writing is because I wanted people to be able to understand what the fuck I was saying and I wanted to write good stories because I thought I'd never be able to make them in a visual medium, but that's it. I've never been able to commit to a serious routine, schedule, or anything. I just sit in my room online doing basically nothing.
Everything I try doing looks so daunting and impossible. I tried learning Source Filmmaker as a teen and I gave up immediately because it looked too complicated. I tried learning how to make my own games in game maker, gave up immediately and never touched it. Even something like drawing just looks so complex and impossible. This is what it's like for everything I try doing.

>There is one thing not to do, and that is simply to drift along with the daily routine, making no extra effort. You will soon find yourself middle-aged, having done nothing more than routine jobs, and being little farther along than you were years ago. The extra effort is the difference between the great mass of mediocre artists and the comparatively small group of very good ones.
>And in Art, study can never stop. You will find sketches galore in the studio of the good man, with the paint quite fresh. The mediocre artist's sketches are old and dusty.
>I have seen so many middle-aged artists still hoping, whose samples are frayed at the edges, and thumb-marked with time. Sometimes it has been a matter of years since they sat down and actually did something to give their hopes any promise. They are plodding their lives away at something they hate, and doing nothing about it. These are the men who never seem to have had a chance. The truth is, they never seized a chance.

J.P said it'll basically fuck you up so bad you'll kill yourself or do rot away.

I have been sorta avoiding drawing even though i'd like to get good at it. I feel very insecure about my extremely lacking artistic ability, though, which is why i've been putting it off for years now.
