Surprising Results
Added 2022-03-22 11:37:01 +0000 UTCI got to admit that these results were pretty surprising to me. Especially on DeviantArt, where the most popular TG artists are the ones doing transformations based on magic.
Does it mean that this style is a little saturated? Or maybe I have a different niche? I'd love to hear your thoughts about it.
By the way, I have a finished work ready to be posted, I'm just waiting for the client's approval. While that doesn't happen, I'll be sketching some new works.

yep, non-magic is more relatable

But a realistic transformation shows the transformed person’s agency as either really, perhaps subconsciously, wanting the change or being seduced/persuaded into accepting it. That is both more realistic and more satisfying to experience vicariously through the transforming character.

2022-03-22 16:15:25 +0000 UTCThank you so much for your comment! Using the tools I have on DeviantArt, it seems that when I post a work involving magic, it gets more views and interaction at first. But in the long term, the ones involving realistic situations tend to be liked more. On Patreon, it's a bit harder to have control over that since I don't get as much interaction as on DA. But judging by the poll results, it's easier to guess what the public here in its majority is looking for. Nonetheless, I'd say I'm pretty happy with this, considering that I'm not a big fan of magic transformation pieces.

2022-03-22 12:18:44 +0000 UTCwhat are your most popular works? magic transformations or realistic transformations? is there a popularity difference between your works on Deviant Art and Patreon? I think you have a talent for realistic situations, that might be the reason why your fans prefer realism.
