I feel like I'm cheating though. Most of my watchers came after I went hooves first into ponies and equestria girls a few months ago. Before that I only had about 20 watchers. I do like drawing them though.

So unless you sell your soul to draw either furry pony or fanartshit, you're stuck being a nobody and unable to gain profit online huh?

I guess I'll choose the lesser evil and begin on fanart, I can't stand furry and I've got no desire to read up on some ponylore nor do I want to draw that simple shit. I've got a question for people having viewers, how do your viewers deal with you drawing something original?

No, if your style or art is good you'll get fans.
But if you're mediocre or slightly not shit you will get a lot more attention by drawing something people want to see.

As a side note, it will be easier to get views because people will be actively searching for league of legends fan art as opposed to random anons oc.

In the end it's all fanart. Just pick something you're legitimately a fan of. There's nothing wrong with it, especially if you pace it with original stuff.

>I've got a question for people having viewers, how do your viewers deal with you drawing something original?
On the other side of that coin. I found someone with a neat style because of fanart and I continued watching them when they fell out of the fandom. Though most of their current art is not what I normally look at, their style is good enough to keep me.
>>2041571 Is right. Less favs because the subject isn't my thing. And I don't mean it superficially in that it's "not fanart". Also means I have less to comment because the only thing constant that I like is the style.

I pretty much stopped being active on DA roughly 1/2 years ago. Most of the people who actively watched me slowly left the site or just became uninterested in my work altogether. Namely after I did some mlp fanart. The pageviews, the comments and favourites started rolling in like mad. And then I stopped making ponies because fuck that shit, I'm not gonna do that shit forever and ever - and then I find out nearly everyone that watched me simply ignored everything nonpony. Was pretty much the last straw, since I was already sort of fed up with that website and its toxic community.
