Where does one get nsfw commissions in 2024?

Anyone got any discord servers they can recommend? The forum world seems completely dead by now, which is what I last remember being a thing. Is hentai foundry still popular and does it get enough traffic to get an artist exposure/commissions?

You're not getting commissions because your art is beg teir. Learn anatomy and how to draw faces. Your nowhere close to ready to give commissions.

That's why I thought of doing free commissions to get better at drawing. Of course my drawing skills are so shitty that I can't even get free commissions. It's so fucking embarrassing.

Anon, you need a reality check, and I say this with a very good inention: do not post anything for a good year or so. Draw and do not show it to anyone, because its pointless, but keep track of your progress which you'll eventually see. People are not interested in it, and no pro will take you under his wings or redline your stuff. You are at the stage, when you shouldn't even do loomis head, but a shitton of cylinders, and boxes.

I know art in general isn't in the best place when it comes to monetization thanks to things like AI and all, but something that's still making tons of revenue online is content creation, mainly videos and stuff, but social media as a whole. I've never been more than a hobby artist, but I'd like to use my art as a side hustle, though commissions now seem like they wouldn't cut it alone, so I want to make content, videos of timelapses and/or some lessons of what I know perhaps. I know now the main platforms for art are Instagram and Twitter, while for videos it's YouTube and TikTok, anyone here have any experience on any of these at all?

>How does monetization work between them?
>Which one is best for a hobbyist to have at all?
>Which is the quickest to get monetized in still?
>Are any of 'em more unreliable than the others?

I'm thinking of making videos and content for all of them on the side, though I've never done it at all before, and have no idea of what it takes for a real shot at getting monetized, not famous, just a bit of extra money for the month doing a task I don't find too troublesome or difficult. Are there any general tips and words of advice I should be hearing before doing any of this? I know that the chances of me losing motivation and giving up early are high, but I've got a drive and a part of me wants to at least try this out before giving up on the idea altogether. I feel like I could help out a bit too, we can always teach something we do.

I got a positive response so here's the first thread for studying Figure Drawing for All It's Worth by Andrew Loomis. Here's a basic schedule for the first chapter, but feel free to ignore it and work at your own pace. A schedule for the rest of the book will be discussed later.
Start by reading the first 32 pages. Don't worry about copying the drawings yet. Pay attention to the basic proportions pages. When you're done, got to page 38.
Pages 38-49: 2 weeks. Take your time learning the mannequin. Try drawing it in various poses.
Pages 50-56: 1 week
Then spend 1 week going back and studying the pages that were skipped.
Don't just copy! Try redrawing Loomis' drawings from memory after your initial copy, and take note of what you got wrong. Apply what you've learned to photo reference and try inventing figures from imagination.
The book:
https://files.catbox.moe/d2501d.pdf
And here's some refs:
https://files.catbox.moe/7246sw.zip

Good luck!

another thing for mindless exercises is just doodling from imagination or doodling things around you and applying what you know to those doodles, shouldnt take too much brain power if youre not focusing too hard and will probably help you get a better intuitive understanding of the fundementals you know

to answer the question in the picture posted: No, it "reads" As some one who has no idea how to draw very well so it looks like neither and the artist needs to refine there skills before they ask the question.

1: Post a brief backstory if your original character has one.

2: Character design critique and discussion is welcome.

3: Keep it fairly SFW. Lewds are fine but no explicit porn.

4: This is NOT a request thread. Artists ONLY. No spamming original characters/infodumps without proof of prior delivery.

5: Be sure to thank Drawfrens for their hard work as soon as you can, it's just common courtesy :^)

6: Avoid off-topic discussions and DO NOT respond to bait posts.

7: Leave all the chit-chat out unless to thank drawfrens. Draw more and talk less.
