Let's have some serious talk, shall we? I honestly want to hear some opinions.

1. Quality vs. quantity

Some of you might notice already that nowadays I don't post detailed artworks... It's because most of my serious artworks are contents for books. Of course i can't submit the contents until I'm not selling them anymore.

But I'm aware that my account is pretty bare nowadays. I try to submit some doodles or speedpaintings, but some people might expect me submitting detailed DD-worthy artworks on this account. To tell you the truth, I rarely draw seriously outside making the books, because I'm slow on drawing and need months to finish one book (unless it is collaboration).

Any thoughts? Are you okay with me submitting often, but with less serious artworks?

2. Style
I don't really have fixed style. My style on coloring or in general sometimes change, a few times I feel like my artworks are drawn by different artists (you can see on my art summaries, like the newest one> 2014 Art Summary by Narurinya )

Maybe because I experiment a lot and prone to get affected by other artists, so I color things differently on each drawing. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Like, if I consider making commisions in future, maybe the customers like to see fixed and unique style.

Should I try more fixed style? (Because honestly I like experimenting and it might be difficult to stop the habit)

Personally I'm totally fine with you submitting a bunch of less serious stuff. Your less serious stuff is still really good haha
And I also don't think there is anything wrong with experimenting a lot. I think eventually you might find a more "fixed style" that would work for you and that you liking doing, but I don't think forcing it would help. It's much better to draw how you want to draw, is how I see it I guess?
Either way, I think I would be happy with w/e you decide to post.
