Screw it, I'm posting this here. It's up on my NSFW art Twitter account in case you're wondering (ChaoticLKnight). This is a variant of something I posted to my DA, my attempt to draw myself in a vacbed, but good:

One thing that always irks me with vacbed art is when people don't draw it right. What do I mean? You know when they draw hair, perfectly outlined by the vacbed? Where it more looks like the occupant was painted over rather than being sealed up? Yeah, that. Guys, the latex compresses stuff. From all of the videos I've seen, the bed will make you look bald, for the most part. I mean jeez, you're getting vacuum sealed in latex. I'm not trying to throw anyone under the bus, I'm just saying that realistic vacbed art really gets me going, you feel me?

Bruh, your art ain't perfect either... Yeah, I know. That's why I am working towards improving my art.

So let's talk about what's going on in the artwork. As you can probably guess, the vacbed is Rubbutts' Aislinne. I am not an expert on Aislinne lore, but I have seen artwork of her shape shifted...so why not get creative?

This is also up on DA...the sfw version... The version that sucks. So DA decided to get a bit more "lenient" and now allows you to submit slightly more NSFW stuff to subscriber galleries. The comment section to this announcement was hilarious... Some people actually think this will chase users away... LOL, NO. IF ANYTHING, THAT IMPLIES DA HAS BEEN IN DECLINE. What do I mean by that? We all know DA is incredibly strict, their 18+ section only permitting slightly suggestive poses and themes. Why bother posting there when it's incredibly mainstream and won't allow anything juicy? Hell, I'm constantly scared my account is going to get yeeted for merely using the 18+ filter. This implies, to me, that their numbers are down and they want to bring people in/back. What's DA appeal? Art that's probably stolen from other websites? Low quality, MS paint art from teens? Seriously, for being called DEVIANTart, they're probably the least deviant art site on the web. Why should I even bother with DA and their subscriber galleries when other, more lenient websites exist?

Pardon the vent, I needed to get that off my chest. Don't bother with my subscriber gallery on DA. I'm probably not going to use it.

So yeah, that was my TED talks on why I am losing interest in DA and want to branch out to other websites.
