So here is this thread to come and save the day! Maybe. Not sure whether this'll actually develop into anything or not, but I feel it's most certainly worth a shot, especially since I haven't seen anything like this in the BBS before.

If you're an artist who makes great art and you feel you have an unacceptably low follower count - or whatever the case may be - consider this thread your new home! If you want to interact with your fellow underrated artists about your crafts, your work ethics, why you create the art you create, your future plans for where to take your art, career choices, hobbies and other non-art-related things, whatever ends up happening! Let's try to make this a friendly chill zone where everyone is welcome.

I'll kickstart this thing off by pinging a whole bunch of artists that I personally consider underrated in hopes that they will heed the signal and flock on over! Feel free to ping artists you consider underrated yourself! I'd recommend not pinging anyone with more than 50-60 followers, but obviously this is just a general guideline. I'm also well aware I'm pretty much only pinging those who are primarily active in the Art and Movies Portals because that's just where my expertise is, but underrated game devs and musicians are most certainly welcome here too!

Anyways, let's get this thing going hopefully.

I am summoning you to the ancient realm of newgrounds BBS to hang out with a bunch of other artists on newgrounds!
Enjoy your stay, the soul snare activated five seconds ago.

There's a discord link on page 6 but if you just wanna rack up posts which show up on profile stats you can do so here.

Okay I am looking for the discord link because this thing is all crowded and I don't know if I am supposed to delete all the stuff above the stuff I am texting now

I sometimes feel like I missed the boat on all the online stuff as I'm bloody old now, like 30s now. Sometimes I feel like I was pulled in different directions, lowered my quality to hit demands (mentally, mostly), and ultimately made me unhappy, so I've stripped back a lot of that and I'm focussing on what's good for me now. So really appreciate the kindness you've shown in the shoutout, it helps me figure stuff out and where I should be heading in all of this.

I made another art. Do people like this one? Am I cool yet?

That's pretty good. The breasts look a bit weird but that might just be the outfit lol

I’m a woman who draws sfw and nsfw. Whatever I’m feeling honestly. I dump everything on NG because this place is great and I don’t feel censored. My sfw stuff is more horror based but I’m just experimental in general. Think liminal spaces and dream like scenes

I make paintings, both traditional and digital. I work back and forth. I also crochet and knit a lot of little pouches I sell

I got into art when I was a kid. My dad painted and I watched a lot of cartoons. I went to a magnet art program in middle school, art high school and art college. Art is my life now lol

My goal would be to be able to live off my work and just have a great network of artist friends. I’m a bit of an introvert but I’ve been tryin to put myself out there

Great stuff! Sounds like you're quite capable with all these mediums. Looking forward to that calender project of yours! :)

thanks! I’m here to support anyone else on their journey as an artist. I found that newgrounds helped me realize my own passion through people who came before me. I feel humbled by other artists who have inspired me to just pursue it and I believe in anybody else who chooses that. I mean it was really only other artist friends who encouraged me to start showing my work. It’s a network of support :)
