You're welcome! You've been watching me for a pretty long time I think, and you've also drawn many pictures of my fox character. After all that time you're still hanging around, even if i haven't really drawn sonic stuff in a while now.
So far you're the only one who commented on my newest deviation; sometimes I feel like people only care about my sonic fanart. :(

Watching you is the least I could do. It's probably long overdue anyways, I think you make very good art.

Oh, that's so..
I'm just really love your style and find it quite unique regardless of what you draw, really :)
At that time, when I was just starting to follow ypur works, some of them you even inspired me sometimes, though.
This is contrary good that you're trying to draw other things that don't belong to Sonic, but apparently many people don't understand that..

Thank you, it always makes me happy to know that my stuff inspires others. c':

I remember a few years ago, I would have many views and comments, but now it's like almost all of my watcher have died. XD I have over 500 watchers but my deviations have only 40 views. I guess they only like my sonic fanart. It's a given that fan art will get more attention than original art, so maybe it's not that surprising. ><
It's not that I care about being popular or anything like that, but others' interest in my drawings is what motivates me to draw. If people don't like what I do, sometimes I wonder... why even bother drawing at all? (That's mainly just a rhetorical question; I would still draw even if I had 0 watchers, only less frequently since I would have no incentive to do it.)

So what you said does mean a lot to me. :D

Just remember that the first thing you draw for yourself and you like it, and not for someone else.
I'm glad (:
