I'll post some long-term unfinished projects and I have one last genuine effort I intend to finish but, after that, at least for the foreseeable future (and outside of some special exceptions), I'm not doing any artwork that requires significant time and effort any more. Almost nobody else cares, even some people who call themselves friends don't care, so why should I.
Even as someone with "a lot" of watchers on this site alone, I've been feeling this a lot. I've, many times, considered stopping posts and just taking private coms or only posting coms as a way to get what little business i get. Seeing pages that are days or weeks old outnumber my follower count is really discouraging, especially if it's an AI chud. I don't care if it's someone who's actually drawing-that's great they're finding success!
Everything feels bad anymore, I've tried doing deep discounts, free art, etc and literally no one cares. It's mostly my fault for disappearing for so long a while back but it's still very odd how little interaction I drum up, even with pics that I thought looked really good (for me.)
I'm really sorry to know you feel this way, but some form of comfort can be taken that I and others also feel this way. I can't tell you what to do but I always like to see your art come into my new submissions and hate the idea of them no longer coming in, but I TOTALLY get it.
