@cheryxshug I’ve had ponysona’s of all kinds, I change my mind every time I make a new one, current is unicorn even though I’ve never thought that unicorn fit me but im in my unicorn era now, be whimsy be free do what sparks the most joy 🦄
I haven’t been super active on wctwt but I’m brainstorming a possible brightheart map idea… I know there’s interest in beginner friendly projects so I think I’d open it to anybody with less than 5k subs on yt and it would be pmv favoured over animation 🤔 any interest?
@fawnlingstars Yeah definitely a slightly different audience since my content is mostly OC stuff now I have a limited perspective on this I just thought sad brought up a good point that I hadn’t seen talked about yet
@fawnlingstars It’s all about the views, it is a fun thing to participate in and it’s not wrong to want more opportunities I hope the community does band together and make it better I’ve just been ghosting this whole discussion as it appears on my tl
@fawnlingstars This is kinda the part where I mean I don’t have much to say because I haven’t been active here for a few years, I know there’s more to it than what I’m talking about I’m just referencing the part of the conversation I’ve seen but I definitely don’t want to imply that
@fawnlingstars I think it has changed a little bit in the past couple years, I’m seeing people get more ambitious with their first projects and it’s awesome but I still have the same conversation about it every couple months
@fawnlingstars I have a discord server where I share my wips and a lot of people ask me for advice about my process which often leads to this discussion and I’ve heard a lot of artists say they think they have to wait to get an audience in the map community before trying solo projects
@fawnlingstars Encourage people to give their solo ideas a try, longer projects are better for the algorithm and it adds examples to the portfolio without waiting around for someone to give them permission to start, that way they can get into even more maps if that’s what they want to do
@fawnlingstars To get views on their work and Ive never benefited that way from map parts, everyone deserves to try their hand at collaboration but if its an issue of trying to grow an audience which I know many people are trying to do (not to say it’s the only reason ofc) we should also
