The stamp says it all. You got the message now ?
EDIT :: OKAY PEOPLE. FIRST. When I used the "I" in the stamp, I din't meant "me" "arsenicsama" but "me" "the one who'll use the stamp". I THOUGHT it was OBVIOUS..... + I'm not posting that stamp because I'm jealous of Kishimoto and others. I'M JUST SAYING THAT ORIGINAL STUFF SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED LESS VALUABLE THAN FANDOM STUFF. Geez, Naruto and stuff... they are like commercial products. Just browse a bit around deviantART if you dare. + OH REALLY POSTING THAT STAMP MAKES ME ASKING YOU TO WORSHIP MY STUFF? Where is it written? I MEAN EVERYBODY'S ORIGINAL STUFF SHOULD BE MORE APRECIATED. I know other artists that are, like me, not much of a fanart-maker that have the SAME frustrations. + And YEAH. I'm a lil' frustrated to see that all my popular deviations are FANARTS... and mature deviation. I bet this is the same for other artists. WHAT ABOUT ALL THE ORIGINAL IDEAS WE LOVE AND ALL THE STUFF WE CREATE ON OUR OWN? Garbage? One fav? No comments? But I'm drawing a famous character and that's crazy. WTF. C'MON. I'm not AGAINST FANARTS. I like them. BUT PLEASE. GIVE ORIGINAL STUFF MORE CONSIDERATION. You don't like my opinion? Don't use that stamp. |

Sure, draw Naruto.
But maybe use a different style, or shading technique, or even mix and match artist styles. Maybe you can use exaggerated foreshortening or do things from a different point of view. If it gets someone thinking about the fandom they take for granted, then I think it is immediately more valuable than traced-artwork or just generic stuff.

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.
But still, I just think that.. there's too much.

I do draw fanart. But it's mostly in-jokes, boredom doodles, and illustrations for (my and other people's) fan FICTION.
I'm a character concept artist-- I draw OCs, fan characters, and renditions of canon characters not really in composition but for concept.
But yes. There is too darn much Naruto floating around. If you're going to draw a ninja, unless you're illustrating YOUR OWN scene or something, why not make it your own ninja? O_o
I don't get people.

I really do prefer fanart other people OCs if I get to do a fanart.
And I need to admit that sometimes I find frustrating that my most popular deviations are ugly drawing I did years ago... but they are seen because they are mostly Naruto fanarts. I love that serie, really. I'm just tired to see opnly fanart. Art is not only fanarts.

But good browsers, if they see something really cool, they'll check out the rest of the gallery.
Eh. It's just that most people are not good browsers. *goes to check out your gallery for the sake of interest*

Yeah but I mean... most of the people are watching me in the hope I'll fanart again. But really, well.

It's sad, but I will admit that I tend to only draw fanart because I know it's the only way people are going to look at my stuff, that's the way it seems. The few attempts that I've made at my OCs have failed, and I feel like it's a waste of time to put so much love and effort into a character and no one out there gives a shit. I will say, though, that the fanart I've drawn is for myself and my own personal interests. I'm not selling out, I don't think, because I'm not really drawing it for the popularity, I'm drawing it because I love it.
Then again, you have these devartists who are known for whoring out said anime fandoms, and they gain popularity that way, and then, when they do put there OC out there, suddenly everyone in the world gives a shit.

"Wanting to be someone else is a waste of who you are."
- Kurt Cobain 1967-1994
But there's still a few artost like me that are trying their best to support original art from original artists. Maybe I do fav some fanarts sometimes, but I'm trying to look at the stuff poeple create themselves. Maybe I'm a bit of a fanart-hater, I don't know... but, I mean, original stuff it's something more. When you create the design, the character itself, its personality... it's even more valuable to you yourself to have favs and views on that piece of art than on a fanart you did because you liked some super-popular anime character. The feeling... it's not the same.
Thank you for your opinion. I really apreciate reading here and there that I'm not the only one thinking that way.
Have a nice summer
