Social Networking Site for Posting Illustrations and Manga - ART street by MediBang

I have a question

How are you meant to get followers?!

Now I know what you are gonna say. "Ashia, just post a lot of art.". I HAVE BEEN DOING THAT. I POSTED LIKE 24 PIECES OF ART IN THE 2-3 WEEKS I'VE BEEN POSTING AND I HAVE ONLY GAINED 1 FOLLOWER.
Pls help. I spend like half an hour on each of my artworks and I want it to be seen by more people.

Which brings me to another question:
HOW DO U GET UR ART TO BE SEEN??

I can already see a comment being like: "oh just use as many tags with as many uses as you can."
I HAVE BEEN TRYING BRO. I AM PRETTY SURE I HAVE ONE ARTWORK THAT HAS 10/10 TAGS AND ITS STILL HAS LESS THAN 10 VIEWS.

help me pls

  • > -AshiaDraws- Oh good! I’m happy for you! :3

  • > Ephixa that makes sense. i started out on this platform because i wanted to show my art to people who would like it and would rarely ever complain. whenever i show my art to people in the real world, i always get this fear im going to be called a show off so i only really show it to my bsfs and artistic friends and avoid people other than that seeing it. it just makes me feel good to have people who support my art without the fear of being called a show off because showing art is the point of this platform. I realised that getting followers isnt easy so thank you a lot :) P.S. I have also had a spike in followers since i posted this topic so thats also great :D

  • Well my sister Akria has the same complaint, it takes time it’s not fast. And When I first started out I wasn’t upset that I wasn’t noticed. I was just so excited to finally digital draw! And what art I could do with it. So I just kept posting, and overall just enjoyed experimenting with the tools on procreate and I was just overwhelmed with excitement.

Aight hear me out plz

I do this fun challenge that I think other artists should also do.
SO,
you basically just start drawing and all that stuff yada yada yada. BUT, you don't colour the drawing for a period of time like a short period of time. THEN, you ask a person like a friend or family member for random colours. The randomer, the better. AFTER THAT, you colour in your drawing with them. BUT HERE IS THE CATCH:
You have to place the colours in order of the things ur colouring in. I know that sounded really weird but here is an example:

If I was given the colours royal blue, maroon, pastel pink, and chartreuse in that order, I would make up an order for things like skin, hair, shirt, and eyes. So the order would look like this:

Skin - Royal Blue
Hair: Maroon
Shirt: Pastel Pink
Eyes: Chartreuse

That was just an example. I will post a drawing I make with random colours.

P.S. If you don't have friends, then put random colours on a wheel or a name picker and spin the wheel. I explained that really weird so if you have any questions I gotchu just ask me

Have fun arting!
