Sort of tested my skills. I rarely get so motivated to finish a picture in just one day, dunno what came over me.

So is it any good? I'd like to think that it is somewhat fine, but I can't trust myself, so the only sure thing is to post it for critique.

I think it looks good, but I'm not a pro at anatomy recognition.

Looks good to me!

I'm not great at judging art.
But I like it.

Do you think it's good enough to try to self-upload it?

I think it looks good enough to upload to e621. The anatomy is good, the coloring and shading is very nice, and that wrench looks odd until one realizes it's specifically made for a mouse working on human-sized machines. Give it a shot.

Well here goes nothing.

Thanks!~
The Twitter reaction was in contrast quite lukewarm, to say the least.

Congratulations! Can't wait to see more from you.

Your art is great! Stay inspired no matter how hard it hits you! ;)

Well damn, no wonder it was. I've raised suspicions when I saw my tweet doesn't appear in the search results, checked, and it turns out I've been shadowbanned. What the hell?! Can I escape that, or my career on Twitter ended before it could begin?

You might want to open up an account on FurAffinity, Inkbunny, and/or other gallery as a backup. Twitter doesn't seem to be well designed for use as a gallery site, and if they go Tumblr, you'll still have a footprint elsewhere.

Also, welcome onto e621. We might not always be high-falootin' art, but we know what we like. :p

I thought about it, but I don't think I'll be drawing a lot of furries (Even though I appreciate a lot of furry art, I'm not a furry myself, I think), so I'm not sure if my art will fit the format of these sites, since it will be mostly hairless apes. Besides Twitter and this here establishment, I only really know a couple of rule34 booru-style galleries and Newgrounds as places where you can post lewds.

Newgrounds and Pixiv are good as gallery sites if you plan on a lot of human stuff. NewTumbl is a good site for timeline stuff like Twitter--and more searchable to boot.

And yet so many people seem to use it as one. It hurts me.

I've started the next picture a lot sooner than I've thought, lol. What do you think of it?

Deviantart is a good middle ground. Lots of artists from both the non-furry and furry sides of the fence. And they do allow explicit stuff, as long as it's tagged properly, so it'll be hidden from those who haven't deliberately changed their user settings to see such things.

If I remember correctly, they don't allow anything that goes past the "character is nude" levels of lewdness, even if it's tagged as nsfw. And then there's that lots of people are saying that deviantart is dead.

Fair points. Was just making a suggestion, was all. Though, I could swear there was at least a point in time when they allowed full-on porn...

"They were shit at enforcement" is not the same thing as "they allowed it".

I've finished another picture.

Do you think I can post it on e621, or it's better not to?

I'm seeing elf ears and plant tentacles, so it looks fine.
