I post on many different social media plattforms, I have a Youtube channel, I joined a lot of Art discord servers to advertise my commissions but i rarely get any. I also do not have many followers and super bad engagement on social media. Is there anything else i can do? (my X is vxmpyycat)

Have you tried using general furry servers, if I had a fursona I'd draw it myself even if you're a better artist than I am, unless we were friends I guess, but there's probably way more potential customers in the general furfag population than the handful of people who browse art servers to see who's taking commissions.

This would at least get you Twitter followers, you can't grow for shit on social media these days but most of the dudes you'll meet off-site are potential followers.

Not OP but aren't most furry servers private ? They are hard to find

There's a ton of public furry adjacent servers or containment channels where everyone is a furry even if that's not really the point. Take FnaF, Sonic, or Animal Crossing for example : it's not inherently a furry thing but if you check them out you just know every third guy in the fandom is one. They'll call their 'sonas "OCs" but maybe they'll want them drawn someday.

if you are gonna draw lewd, make sure the oc is less chibi. at least 6 or 7 heads to body radio, so it looks less loli and you don't get called a cub artist
if you are a minor yourself, don't draw lewd art, because you and your fans could get in trouble

There's no need to explain--there shouldn't be any minors here in the first place. Stop taking retarded bait.

It depends, how old are you?

if you are a minor:
>you could get groomed, and even if you don't, you could get addicted to porn easier. porn here includes lewd non nude pictures like of your dog girl
>your audience, especially anyone commissioning lewd art from you could be called pedos for supporting your work
btw some people would consider your pic porn and showing it to minors could get you cancelled.
