So im new to the board, and ill cut to the point, I've been trying to grow as a nsfw artists, i started a little bit before ai started. Sometimes I don't feel motivated to draw, and i accept requests from ppl to expand, and I don't really care what I draw, as long as I can take it as a challenge, with a limit of drawing rape, gore, ect. But I've accepted drawing futa, trap, and loli, but I've been feeling like drawing loli might be a arrow to the knee in my reputation, the worst part is that it was the most popular illustration i did by the amount of likes.I know that it's fictional character and there are a lot of popular nsfw artists who just draw stuff like that on the side and just never get shit for it. What is your opinion on this guys
You should go to the /ic board. This is for design, typography, layout etc.
>>459690AI can only copy someones style to a mediocre degree at best. You can still be better if you continue to evolve as an artist and refine your craft, maybe even use AI in limited doses to get through some backgrounds etc. I wouldn't give up but there is a need to adapt to the new market. I think you should start with understanding your target customer base and work backwards. Personally I wouldn't be so eager that I jump into doing loli shit just to make a buck lol to turn this into a proper income you gotta take your time boy and get known. Or if you like to live dangerously you can pull a shadman and ride the controversy.
shadbase pull lol
Map = pedophileLoli = child pornographyJust don't do it for your own sake. If you're debating it, you probably think it's wrong. Nobody's forcing you to do it and nsfw artists still earn a lot either way.
>>459690have you ever considered suicide?
>>459690Bro/Sis, probably you won't be able to afford a living by only doing NSFW in the AI age.However, AI restricted tags (restricted in AI gen sites) can get you a buck.Also, focus on what it CAN'T do well or frequent yet, like lots of specific details, lots of different people, high definition.And third, eat the capitalist reality cookie and accept that the most well payed tags will not be always the ones you like.>I know the furries pay a lot of money for their fix. Maybe scat, futa and other niche stuff pays well too.Research other artists doing specific stuff to learn more about prices.About the loli/shota stuff: check the laws of your country. Make a moral, ethical and political choice if you will or will not go that path and if you do be aware that are a lot of people that will bother you and might even damage your reputation. I won't get in any discussion of ethics or morality [those usually are long], but make this exercise:1) If my family and friends discovered I'm drawing adult characters porn, what would be their reaction?2) If my family and friends discovered I'm drawing very underage looking characters porn, what would be their reaction?I'm saying this because I'm considering become a NSFW artist too. If i succeed, I will NOT do any loli/shota stuff for many reasons.
