Nerissa Ravencroft - September 2024's Reward
Added 2024-10-14 17:06:26 +0000 UTCI am very sorry that this piece took so long to complete. Real life business is one thing but I feel like my mind is trying to hold me back.
Currently, I basically lost all my methods to pr myself so I am kinda disappointed. My artworks have been in the border of lewd and SFW but it also causes problems that it is always mixed level and doesn't be very attractive to any sides. Besides, all SNS will shadowban you very hard if you are mixed like that. That is why although I tried my best for 7 years, my SNS still has low engagement, low followers. Well, It's just all my fault because of my indecisiveness that led to my current state.
That is why I have been thinking what I should do next in order to change the current fact. First, I want to test some new skills from other artists on twitter on my next artwork so that I can improve the progress while keeping the quality at some level that satisfies you guys.( I really need your feedback so please drop some comments on my next work ) Second, I must diversify my contents so that you guys come to support my works not just only for franchises. Last year was a failure but this time I will try to pick hot trends to do and it must be focused on lewd so that I can get more inspiration to do. Just drawing Hololive within a few characters really kills all my creativity. I think you guys have also seen that problem for a long time so thank you very much for continuing to keep supporting me. Also, I will try to reuse old simple backgrounds like this time. My style will feel very off without them so I think I will design a room then use it. Hope you don't mind this. I just use it when I need everything done fast. If time is not the issue, I will find something new to test just as always ( another 10 days haha )
I still draw Hololive so please don't worry. I just need to draw more waifus to find back my inspiration and passion. I can't stand outside the game for too long. All my pixiv and SNS are dead at this point so the change is needed.
I will come up with a new lewd after the deadline ends. Hope you will keep supporting me.
Now it's time for experiment ! Shiori next. I will see you next week. This time it won't take long again.
Thank you for supporting me !

2024-10-15 05:53:25 +0000 UTCI completely understand. That kind of pressure is tough, and it can make it more difficult to commit one way or another. Just know that I will continue to do what I can to support you, whatever you decide to do. I'm glad that my long comments help, it makes me feel good to know that and that's part of why I write them; genuine encouragement and appreciation are wonderful things! Thanks again, and good luck! You've got this!

2024-10-15 03:51:03 +0000 UTCThank you for always taking the time to write long comments to cheer me up. It's a really hard decision but what needed to be done had to be done. I need to accelerate the progress without dropping too much quality, then take that free time to research other things that help me grow in the long run. For whatever ways I choose, improving service quality is what I am aiming for so maybe you don't see my artwork being too great like it used to be but you will receive something else in return. To be honest, this is very risky because I don't know if it would work for everyone. Besides, I am the only income of my family right now so any wrong moves will have a great consequence. That is why I hesitate to change when everything already changed but because of that I lost even more. Well everything is in bad shape right now so I really want this time it will be successful. I am back to my work now. I will see you next week with my new experiment then. Let's look forward to it ! Thank you for cheering me up !

2024-10-15 03:33:35 +0000 UTCAs long as you tolerate it then I will do it. As an artist, I really want to bring you something new on every illustration I make. But as I said many times, art really needs time and it's not good for promoting myself because algorism doesn't support that. All actions like cutting BG or recycling like this really hurt pride as an artist but still better than standing still and being left behind. I will try my best to make compensation by coming up with better lewds and settings or eventually I can't forgive myself. This is a hard decision but I will do it so that we can have better things. Thank you for continuing to support me. Let's look forward to my next artwork. P.s: Please give me the names of some subthreads. Themes should be Genshin, Honkai Star rail, Blue Archive and Nikke. I will find and join them myself. Thank you very much !

2024-10-15 03:22:02 +0000 UTCOhhh I really love this piece! I like how the angle and the pose draw attention to gravity in a way, like you can see how her hair fans out behind her when it hits the bed, or how the fabric of her clothes lies flat against the sheets. The pose itself is very inviting, and Nerissa looks extremely cute here. I think your plan is solid. Trying out new things is never a bad idea, whether you love or hate how it turns out you'll learn more about yourself, what you like, and shape your style accordingly while developing your skills. I will be sure to be extra attentive with the experimental works ;) As for the other thing, I personally would be okay with you drawing literally anything. I like your Hololive work a lot, but I also like your old Fate stuff a lot, and at the end of the day I'd love to see any and all characters and places drawn by you. There are so many good and fun designs out there that I'd love to see in your style ^_^ and I'd also be happy, if this was something that interested you, to see you come up with your own characters and draw them, too. I really do love your background work too, and I agree that it feels like a key aspect of your style, and from what you've said in other posts, it seems to be part of your workflow too to an extent. I actually think coming up with backgrounds that can be recycled is an excellent idea. You can come up with new or complex backgrounds when time allows, and then pull out the reusable assets when you're really tired or short on time. This gives every piece a background without driving you crazy or making you feel like you're diminishing the effort of a particular background. You could kind of over time stockpile different angles or locations in the same room even, so that you have different options that were still easier to make because it's the same place. I think Ultra's suggestion makes sense, Reddit could be a pretty good place to post things and garner attention. I do think as you draw more variety of characters and stimulate your own creativity, that will draw people in as well. Passion is so important. We feel it in the things you make, and I want you to be enjoying yourself as much as we enjoy what you make! Thank you for the update! You can do it, cheering you on as always; excited to see Shiori next!

2024-10-15 01:54:57 +0000 UTCBeautiful piece! I love it, especially the setting the pose you gave Nerrisa. Very lewd invitation position with that leg spread she has there haha. It's one of my favorites to see. Amazing work! I think your new plan going forward seems good! Diversity in your content can help a lot + that new thing you have going for your next project. I also think reusing simple background is a good idea to reduce the time on each piece. One suggestion I have is posting some of your lewds to Reddit. I know you post the SFW versions on there but I think your NSFW work will do great there too
