Do you enjoy drawing more fanart or original content?
I really enjoy doing my own thing. Also for some reason I always feel like my fanart just isn't ever good enough compared to my other work.May 1, 2021

i prefer original stuff including art for other peoples ocs, fanart feels like theres less creativity. Sometimes i feel like i get influenced by the art style too so it just becomes copying ε-(´∀｀; )
•
•I used to draw only fanart but now I enjoy drawing my ocs even if that means losing followers 
•
•I like doing fanart when I just want to relax. But, it is nice to have something original.
•
•I prefer original content, I just feel like anytime I draw fanart im unable to properly draw it. I just can't seem to implement my style or mimic theirs and im just stuck erasing over and over again lol. Workin on It though
•
•Fanart! I just do art for fun, and I have the most fun with characters and scenes from my favorite series. Sometimes it takes a few pieces to get the feel for a character I haven't drawn before.
•
•Original, but I actually like doing both, I like drawing characters i like but i always try to make sure they are in my style but overall I have to say i’m more into my own original art :33
•
•I get more inspired by existing media than my own ideas. Trying to work on that though!
•
•im definitely a big fanartist, i prefer getting invested in and loving stories that other people have made, and its taken me a lot to feel any of that investment in my own characters? like ocs are never really a thing ive done, are they even worthy?? but im finally starting to feel more comfortable with them too~

I enjoy drawing fanart coz I suppose I can add my own original twist to it and I like how with fanart you can interpret the person you are drawing in anyway !! But I would like to get into original work but my imagination is not where I want it to be
•
•Fanart but Im not posting it here to break the habit bc I neglect my own stuff I want to make.

I prefer to draw original work mainly because whenever I draw fanart in my style it doesn’t look right to me!! I do fanart very sparingly
•
•I like drawing a good mix of both. Since the fan art is of different fandoms so it brings in different people and my original art is more of what my style is and how I like my art.
•
•I prefer drawing original stuff, because it's nice to get all my ideas and characters out there for people to see. But I like dabbling in fanart sometimes, just because it often reaches a wider audience.
