>Ahhh I'm going to delete my drawings!
Fuck every schizo who does this shit. Both eastern and western. Even worse if they keep making alts under different names.
>>
This has happens mostly with pixiv artists for me just randomly one day account is gone no explanation. I cant understand why delete everything when you could just abandone the account
>>
Idk sometimes I wanna see if I got the skill to make it without my pull. Sometimes I wanna try something new. Sometimes I wanna be free of identity. Tbh, you're not an artist if you're attached to your identity. Being pigeonholed into a niche by fans leads to artistic rot.

It's worse when they are still active on the same account while deleting past drawings that got them to where they are now.

>>7969641
Ironically, they care way too much about identity if they do something like this instead of completely changing their style/content on the same account regardless of what their followers think.

It's usually done by people who want to have a clean record without others seeing their past drawings that they are now dissatisfied with.

I mean I could easily argue in favor of the exact opposite thing since ego is the element we're both dancing around and both ego and non ego can result in this whole thing we're talking about
>>
>>7969637
I blocked everyone that does this
>hurr durr my doodles are a rare currency
Yeah nah piss off.
>>
>>7969645
Personally, I think the only real non ego option is to abandon the account like the first poster said. Deleting everything is the fake idgaf option.

You wouldn't get it since you're a /beg/

It's mostly an asian thing, I've noticed. Who knows what the mindset is that causes it.
Then again, asians are also quite against emulation and piracy, even when it comes to preservation (as in, the product isn't available anywhere anymore), so I think they're looking at it as purely the artist controlling their work, whereas westerners see a released work as being partially owned by the public - 'death of the author' and all that.

>have art account
>can't actually do art but have to be a brandâ„¢ with your scribbles wich is the antithesis to art
>normies won't have none of that
>realize it's just a game of slop
>stop uploading on the account, maybe even delete it
>draw the shit you want
normies turned even art into corporation slop where even at the lowest level it's demanded and expected to upload content like some corporation because why go outside when you can simulate the real thing?

>>7969637
This is the based option though, who cares about people, you are the one that has control over your account and your drawings.
If they like your shit, they will archive it and save it themselves.
If they dont, then nothing of value was lost and you did the right thing by deleting everything.
>>
>>7970091
then dont whine when people reuploaded your deleted crap
>>
>>7970098
I dont? Only the asians do that because they are pussies.
>>
>>7969637

i noticed people deleting all of their art when they go industry after drawing porn. selling their soul to the devil means giving up your artistic expression. they deserve it.
