Half of these artists don't even animate porn anymore and some like Riz and Gerph never did animation in the first place.

I know it's a crazy thought that people who express humanity include sexuality and fetishism in that for whatever reason but that is a part of our nature and the castration complex of states and corporate entities shouldn't blind you to that truth.

I've always wondered what happened to the artist SaberZelgrath. I didn't know him when he was known as Sacred Gallant, but I know his fursona used to show his entire body, and I even think he drew NSFW content. He also drew his OC in underwear or a jockstrap, and I think he even had another OC who was his adopted son, but I don't know if he drew them having sex or anything like that. But when he changed his name to SaberZelgrath, he deleted all his NSFW content, and now his fursona had futuristic metal armor, making his account SFW again. It wasn't until 2023 or 2024 that he uploaded NSFW content again. Does anyone know what happened?

This guy is a retard but it's the same shit as other lefties I see on Discord. They've never been to Hungary, don't know where it is, had no idea who Mr. Magyar was until three days ago. But oh boy do they have opinions on the Hungarian political system as if they've been following it for years.
I feel like I did more research than the typical lefty commentator since the first thing I found after looking at his Wikipedia entry was that he defected from Orban's party because of a pedo scandal. It's just Orban's party without Orban.

how do I make art friends when I'm a drawfag for 4chan?
I once mentioned I occasionally to draw requests on 4chan to a "normie" artist and they ended up blocking me
am I supposed to keep that fact to myself when I'm in contact with another artist? and only message other drawfags from this site?
should I use the word "faggot" in my drawings as a dogwhistle to other anons? I saw someone else do that and immediately knew they were an anon
>>
>>82275754
absolutely
>>82275871
I have more friends than I can count since I go to a shitload of cons
a majority of artcels don't go outside and there's only a few cool ones. I only hang with the cool ones. anyone who looks at 4chan and still thinks it is a icky hacker thunderdome because Fox or CNN told them so is a fucking tool so they only did you a favour
>>
I despise other artists so much. They are fucking insufferable. Never want to talk or meet other people, I have 15k and I still get treated like a common rat begging for rp. Their communities are nothing but weird nobody fans and the actual artist never shows up besides the at everyone ping for self promo. How the fuck do you make it when you have to network with these cunts and they never want to interact with people outside their little clique??? Fuck these people

regardless, this is why you avoid FOTM at all cost. anyone appealing to normies, and especially artists who just show up to post artwork and leave, are all leeches and narcissists. Find people who post niche content or problematic shit, you'll quickly find people who aren't insufferable dicks about everything sooner or later.
90% of the people i see on baraag are generally cool and a lot less retarded than the cattle you can find on twitter, barring a few exceptions

I'd just shut up about it. You do you, do what you feel is right, but if your income depends on it you're probably better off holding your tongue.
But also.. why do you want to advertise that? Like, legit curious. You've got your comfy spot on 4chan with people that mostly aren't memespouting dipshits but everyone outside 4chan typically is your usual drooling "I'm so good at shitposting I'm simply epic" troglodyte. Those are the only types you'll hook. "Fuck niggers hah us fellow 4channers amirite?" is about the best you get. I don't go flocking to people outside 4chan that mention it.

That shits corny dont do that, unless you want to attract other corny fags.
Just post your socials in the draw thread and in /dig/ and the /ic/ furry thread. Other artists will follow you and you can talk to them there.
I got invited to a lot of discord servers with other 4chan artists just by posting my socials then they DM you on those sites. From there you meet other people and get invited to other servers.
You can show your power level a bit and make some edgy jokes to weed out the people who think 4chan is a scary place but if you're constantly saying nigger faggot and rape jokes nobody is going to like you except other annoying faggots.

He should be irrelevant, but a lot of US right-wing politicians like Brendan Carr, Ron DeSantis, and Vance tried modeling their politics after Orban and even endorsed him recently. So him losing is a testament to people being disillusioned with those types of politics. And they should, it's a poor country with low wages and birthrates. It showed that right-wing politics don't improve the material conditions at all, even by their own standards, despite having complete control for decades. Funnily enough, banning minorities made that fact more obvious.
Liberalism isn't perfect, but it is better than a far-right one. You end up hiring white people who are 10x more incompetent than DEI hires and they end up having a huge ego from being stuck in an echochamber. They brand any critic or grievanced voter as a communist or terrorist, so they won't bother to improve societal conditions at all.

>>82283910
Diapers are visible and a marker of regression that people associate with pedo stuff and can just cause a scat level disgust response, Meanwhile fatal vore is insidious and hidden under multiple layers (including a dedicated culture of ambiguity gaslighting that puts scatfags and their purple fondue to shame), people casually dying also is normalized in the western media landscape and that extends to the fetish stuff made.

I'm gonna sound like a retarded schizo but I don't really like it when porn artists go into sfw spaces.

But damn near everytime this happens I didn't know it was a porn artist UNTIL people were pointing it out and/or posting that one despicable me gif.

I guess I'd just prefer if nsfw artists just sticked to porn and nothing else.

Slayed really has got a fragile ego cause ONE guy said he fell off to which he makes a post with a pic of him getting sucked off as a sort of "comeback".

The problem is that nsfw spaces and monetization always get shut down whenever nsfw artists try to make it their main profession, so they usually have no choice but to enter sfw spaces to make money.
Besides, a lot of nsfw artists created a lot of influential SFW work like the Fifth Element and Wonder Woman.

>>
>>82285690
The moderation allowed them sometimes, it was retarded and it was literally 50/50
There is also an artist "shiin" that got one of those tags that are all about edits. I remember that sometimes those uploads have shit like "deleted: edits not allowed" while +800 still fucking exist, like why then
>>
>>82272463
Personally. I enjoy porn. I'm a strangely erotic, but not erotic person. If I drew SFW I would draw porn of it on the side. If I drew NSFW I would draw mundane SFW shit of it on the side. Can't really have a fully fleshed out scenario without it. Porn for the sake of porn is boring.
Money is also nice, but technically I could make more money being far less directly erotic and start publishing joke comics and get on webtoon or something.

Then you're most likely suffering from some other dense faggot who did step out of line and the artist is trying to keep the peace by making it not obvious that THEIR commission was the one that broke the camels back.

Why should artists be barred from the industry because they expressed fundamental parts of human nature such as sex, eroticism and fetishism? What leads to this line of thinking? I get god is a bit of a jealous bitch about idolatry / fetishism but I think there is a strain of thought that is distinctly Islamic/evangelical that takes this castrated route which is way more statist or corporatist than anything to do with humanity and our fundamental essence.

because gender norms fucking suck and the entire world tries to force them down your throat in real life outside of the internet. defying those norms and being able to be free and accepted on the internet for who you actually want to be instead of being shoehorned based on what's in your pants is a great feeling, whether it's your own expression or just wanting to make a character without the creative limitations forced upon media for the past hundreds of years where the only time a character acted out of the norm was to be made fun of and put up as negative example. being able to experience those dreams society keeps telling you against is how you can really be living free

I’ve found that most mexican artists view their art in a pretty cut and dry factory kind of way. That is, they view it more as a product they can produce and sell rather than an artistic endeavor that pushes their skills. They don’t give a fuck about the process or the minute details. They show you a picture, you give them money for it. Plain as. Anything beyond that adds more work to the transaction on their end and pisses them off greatly because they think you’re wasting their time/getting free extra work from them. It’s why a lot of them boast low prices and really fast turnaround. Get it done fast in one shot and then move to the next.

Always ask for a timeline, even if you end up with a "I'll have a sketch for you sometime next month", that still gives you an in for reopening a dialogue a couple months down the line when they haven't done anything.

The artist who draws NSFW is also a horny fuck, especially the more niche artists because they are often motivated by sating an unsated kink they can't stop thinking about. So a requester that requests shit that just adds to the generic pool is going to piss said artist off. So if you want them drawing your OC you better like that OC being subjected to whatever weird pet niche kink they fixate on.

Sfw artists largely amount to doing nothing with either their characters or their work. I could fill the Pacific ocean ten times over with content that has no secondary draw to itself beyond "this is nice".

I genuinely believe most of the potential of sfw art on social media lies in humour, and sifyro has realised this when he started just posting cat drawover memes instead of fully using his artistic potential to the fullest. to appeal to the algorithms and crowds that don't actually care about art, you have to either do le funny, or porn.

Ya' know furry artists make a lot of sense

i'm not sure what the other anon is talking about but I do think people who hop into things like discord groups purely to drop their own content and disappear with 0 interaction are leeches who often are just trying to get more engagement rather than caring about socialising on a social app
though I dont give a shit if you just drop art and leave without yapping if youre on an actual art site. but it feels absurd on an instant messenger where that isn't even the point of the platform, and invades a community of people wanting to share art around people they actually know

>You're not owed interaction.
The mere fact you're going to join a place for another artist solely to advertise your stuff and do nothing else is proof enough that you're not in it for anything but money or virtual internet points. you are a soulless leech who contributes nothing, why even join the community in the first place if you're not even going to try and network with the artists in there?

posting art there is networking. If someone is interested in my art or subjects, they'll reach out. If not, they wont. Why are you so upset? are you just mad that you're lonely?

Is it really that hard for artists to be nice/compassionate people who aren't ego driven condescending fags? Like how do you fail THAT hard at understanding where the frustration is coming from. I don't even fully agree with that anon, yet i see where his anger stems from. The art community sucks at building genuine connections and relationships despite it having the weird "obnoxiously positive" image, cause people qre very opportunistic.

Can't forget about most artists chomping at the bit to dunk on another artist that has allegations of dumb shit or another artist is being problematic. The "accepting everyone" and "super positive" crowd will dogpile and oust you the second it gets them brownie points and views.

Who was that one artist that was vehemently defending mothdusky or whatever for using AI, and the moment people brought proof that she did, they IMMEDIATELY switched sides so fast and went to shitting on them?

Venting online within your fursona and posting vent art is corny and goofy af.
"I am going to kill myself and I did self harm btw here is the character that represents me in the form of a pinata dog tearing out confetti his own arms."
It's grimderp. It's a parody comedy of yourself. It's professional clown behavior

There is no group that would slaughter it's own kind more than artists. It's mostly to kill competition, though you'll never get them to admit it.

It's less about you and more about the crowd that problematic people attract. /pol/tards are parasocial and move in droves to spaces that have "based" people. They lack basic social skills and do nothing but talk about Jews, Jesus, and transgenders 24/7. Additionally, they shit on other creatives in your group for having chub, vore, shit that doesn't have "cool anthros" with skulls/plate armor/gasmasks, etc. They don't respect the boundaries of others as well and will leak/screencap shit constantly, they make political incorrectness their main personality instead of a minor quirk so people draw the line at that.

Is Loona a gem or coal? Does she deserve all the art of her or is she just a lame generic furry slop character everypony draws for easy engagement?

A lot of popular furry women are one-note flat characters with zero development, but that's why they're popular with men in the first place. No surprises, you get what you see.
You give them actual personalities and development like you do with male characters, and men end up hating them because they aren't waifus or mommies who act nice, perfect, or agreeable 24/7.

She definitely is used as a lame generic furry slop character for easy engagement, but while she doesn't deserve all of her art, I think she deserves at least a decent portion of it. She's cute and moody and had a rough upbringing, it makes her endearing, at least to me.
I'd say she has more shitty OOC generic bimbo art than she deserves, though I am that flavor of autist who is offended by egregious mischaracterizations in cartoon pornography.

posting art alone isn't networking if there is 0 follow up interaction unless people are genuinely heads over heels for you and suckle up to you without you having to do anything.
networking is social requires interaction in some form

rule 34 is banning users who discussed about me getting banned and getting my posts removed for "art standards", I decided that I will never upload my art again until I get better at art, because looking at my art right now, they all look fucking horrible, and wished I never uploaded them, and I didn’t know there was a rule against personal stuff until I read the forum tos, now I almost lost my interest of drawing thanks to that asshole named kielan, he won’t restore my posts that included art by zaddymaddy and other popular twitter artists that were mistakenly removed for falling under "art standards", how is that art of charlotte in a bunnysuit (picrel) under art standards if the art itself is too detailed to be considered low quality? And kielan still refuses to restore them, I sent the same email thought different emails to see if he would accept my ban appeal, and I don’t get a response since, it’s like if kielan didn’t bother to read my mail or he went radio silence, it’s fucking bullshit! I never seen a email support this bad, someone had the same case with his paheal account being ghosted for some reason and the staff telling him to shut up about it instead of accepting his ban appeal, this is just bullshit behavior and my friend talked about this to a artist named NEC-12 and he wished I would get unbanned, I had been banned since April 4 for uploading bunny x jean francois yaoi ms paint art, because I didn’t care about the art quality until now, and I now understand why my art got removed for "art standards" they had anatomy issues and didn’t have smooth lines, it’s because I draw using my phone, I don’t have enough money to buy a decent graphic tablet because my country is in crisis right now, and i struggle drawing anatomy even on paper.

IIRC you cannot even copyright species as standalone in the US, they need to be part of a completed work like a game, novel, etc. You can own individual instances of your species the same way you own any OC but if you make, say, a capyhuahua anyone else can make one/well derivative ones unless you meet the aforementioned requirements.
