Do you like fanart of your characters? I have definitely been inspired to draw them but have never done so because I wasn't sure if it would be well recieved. I know some creators don't like it when people recreate their characters or add headcanons or ships or anything. What is your stance so artists like me know what is or is not welcome?
Short answer: I love it.Long answer: I’m probably not going to love all of it?
If I’m honest, nsfw art of my characters without my direct permission is a huge no-no. A big reason is I don’t know your ages, I don’t know the ages of your followers, and frankly I don’t really want to see genitals in general.
An absolute no-no is shipping incest or underage, racism/antisemetism/nazi content, white-washing, straight-washing, bigotry, or homophobia using my characters.
I’m not a fan of your ocs shipped/interacting with my characters but I’m not stopping you from doing that. Just don’t expect me to always like it because in my mind I think of my characters to be in their own world outside of the worlds of other artists on here.
Feel free to ship my characters with each other even if the characters aren’t canonically together, but again there might be ships I won’t like.I might not like it if my characters are really out of character (OOC) but also feel free to message me asking how they’d behave in certain situations. I’ll gladly help you out with it.
Also if you’re looking for a reblog, I might not reblog it. I’m very particular about how I curate my blog so I can be very critical of what I will and will not have on it. Please don’t be offended if I don’t reblog your fanart.
Also, always @ me! If you’re using my characters, I need to be credited and if art is found of my characters without me being credited, I will ask you to remove it, and if you fail to follow up, I will have tumblr remove it. The @ also helps me see it faster and appreciate it sooner.
I think that’s all, I’d love to see your work and I can put this on like a Fanart FAQ page or something. This all may be subject to change.
