Yes, there's money involved just like all things porn. The problem here is: if you have to ask, don't worry about it. You need to get involved with the community in some way to see your market.

'>>7150318
why is furaffinity bad for exposure?';

Because there really is none. You post a thing, it's on the front page for maybe five minutes, and then that's it. Unlike Twitter, where every single post you make can be possibly picked up by metrics and pushed to millions of people at a time.
FA is a gallery site, not a social media site.';

choose a spot where the light is coming from, shade the opposite of what it illuminates';

'>>7151577
>>7151806
Not the greatest advice. This leads to people painting those weird crescent shadows on everything. You're shading forms, the shadows should be shapes dictated by those forms. It's sometimes better to treat shadows as another form of cast light; after all, there's rarely a complete absence of light (in which case, you'd just paint black).
Another thing you can do is, instead of painting shadows, paint light. Make a layer, fill it with the shadow color, and then erase parts. It's more intuitive sometimes to think about where the light is cast, than all the intricacies of what creates a shadow.';

'>>7151828

lights can have hard edges too, you made every light smooth

'>>7151828
I tried to keep it simple, if he wants to do it the hards way he should make a separate layer outlining the 3D forms of every body part to paint shade over areas but I assume he's a beginner artist so I don't think he should jump right into the advanced stuff
