Style Poll

This is a poll to see how do you feel about the styles I'm doing and which one you prefer. Don't vote just becasu you like the character, try to think just in the style ^^ (Don’t think about me while voting, just chose your favourite)

Old Style - A

This style is more focused on "Draw a pretty girl" It's less expressive but more detailed. It's more techincal. Not very popular on social media, people are willing to pay more for it than for other styles but it was getting less audience.

Examples:

New Style - B

This one is more focused on the character personality, less detailed but more expressive. It's fun in general. Kind of popular on social media, but I feel that attract less patrons or maybe is too soon to know it.

Examples:

Old Anime Style C

This one is focused in the character's sexuality and is "poster" like. Designs made for wallpapers or yeah, posters. It's more braindead, I can do it without thinking much. It's so so on social media, sometimes yes sometimes meh, maybe because sexual content is kind of banned. Well payed if my posts on socials are not banned (which is difficult) xD

Examples:

One thing I've noticed is that the new style generally has more favorites in my posts here than any other previous style, even though I have fewer patrons now than before.

So what I understand is that people like it more but wouldn't pay for it, which is a little confusing to me.


You can choose more than one option~ You can also make some suggestions ^^

Comments

I selected A + B. The big difference between A and C to me is that C is more "here, look at some T&A" while A has more style and personality, which is also what I like about B. Your kitsune/gumiho/huli jing/fox-girl pictures are what grabbed my attention, because you showed a wide range of sexy, wild/fierce, and cute/sweet. This is why I contacted you on ArtStation last night about a commission; one of my three main characters is a kitsune and I wanted to make sure I found an artist who could treat her right.

Adam Borgeson

I have been following you work for several years, and none of the has been a disappointment. I enjoy seeing how your style evolves, and can say each is special in their own way. Please keep pushing yourself, and I will stay for the very enjoyable ride!

David

Some of my favorite drawings from you have less sexualized nudity, particularly https://www.patreon.com/posts/picture-36140070 cause Ahri. I think the closest style would be B, though I would prefer less simple backgrounds. I'm not aware of any other artists with drawings like: https://www.patreon.com/posts/cat-38752380 https://www.patreon.com/posts/w-i-n-d-o-w-38539958 https://www.patreon.com/posts/f-l-o-w-87502428 I am hopeful there is an untapped market there.

Sparfox

all the art styles are really pretty. But think i prefer b the most

Kiko Nirvana

I love all of your styles so It's hard to pic one. But if I had to, it would be Style A, followed by style C. I also do see a place for style B within your community, so I hope that it stays.

Duality Fox

C。I don't like B's style.I subscribed to you because of C's painting style.

I love A and C Styles, but I favor A style because I enjoy more detailed art, to display on my wallpaper. But don't worry about what social media thinks. Most of them are just trolls with an agenda with nothing better to do with their lives.

GregKun

That’s important too dw

NIXEU

The style that brought me here was your "original" style in the early 2020s. But in general, I think it's important you do what you love the most :3

Lyly_arts

Style C for me

Zebra

None of them are bad, but A pops more to me and is what got me here.

Tamashi Toh

Generally prefer A but I would really want you to go back to the work you did around 2020- mid 2022

Nytri

I generally love all three of your styles Nixeu. Your art is always amazing!

Doctor Dean

In my opinion, Style B makes the characters look visually generic, almost lifeless, although I really like the poses of the characters in the shots, especially the first work in Style B. Style C is impressive with its details, and as for Style A, there’s nothing more to say. You can confidently take those works and frame them—which is exactly what I did.

Queen Vi

I would ultimatly love the rendering of a with the character and personality from B and C buuuut thats a LOT of work so my overal vote is A

SMM2 - TutorialZ

I really like both the A and B styles. Style A is just absolutely gorgeus on a technical level, but feels very "modelled" pose- and expressionwise. Style B, as you said, a lot more fun and feeling much more natural, but often times a hit or miss. Some pieces I absolutely love to bits (like the third example), others don't really catch me. Style C looks good, but somehow doesn't really catch my fancy either. So in total, I think I would love to see more of a Mix between A and B. Combining the expressiveness with the artistry we know you for, I think would create some fantastic pieces. ^-^

Legengerry

Feel like the last drawings you did have more identity. They are more expressive, more alive. It's mostly what you said, but I really like looking at them, they are attracting my eyes, I look at them way longer than A and C. In the end I like anything you do, but If only one may subsists, I'd choose B style, even if I discovered you via A, as said I like all your arts.

Nuiji

I like all three. A and c are more you but b is where you experiment and have fun with new ideas. So keep using all three styles on different pieces

Frederick Crow

I like both A and B and I'm sad I had to choose only one in the poll :(

Alice

I'm usually pretty picky when I have to choose, I don't really like having a lot of choices, but with your work, it's just so hard for me because I love all your styles. It's kind of like that song 'Just the Way You Are' by Barry White, where I just love everything about you:)

wimpix

Personally, I'm here for all three, but (A) is what first made me a patron. Is that helpful, I dunno! But I'm not going anywhere.

Justin Lee

I also would like a mix of style, but no idea if that would be good or detrimental. My favorites of the last months would be CP Miku and Kraken in August - regardless of character attachment

Conaiz

This will likely be biased because many of us signed up for style A, so obviously we'd favor that one. At least that's what I'd think haha

Stoia

I have a huge slideshow of your art as my desktop backgrounds, big fan of your work!

Androles

I personally signed up because of style A, but I really like style C too. I don't dislike style B, and it's refreshing to see it thrown in, but style A and C are just soooo good.

Androles

I subscribed because of style A, and while I support every style you do and enjoy them all, that one is the one I like most!

Mir

I like them all, but I think I like style c the most.

Skaarsol

I really liked that style but I’m glad you aren’t in that phase anymore!

Lilisionnach

When i think of Nixeu's Art, I think of great detail ( example A is the best example of this, while C is little bit less detail but still very much detailed). I don't feel that Style B represents that as well as the other examples (although, i understand that is by design choice)

Joe Johnson

I personally want you to keep creating the kinds of artwork and characters that made me subscribe in the first place. For me, that was the style C illustration of 2B—I still love it! But I also really like some of the style B pieces, even though they have a different vibe, so it’s tough to choose, haha.

Kamatan

Hard to choose. A and C are definitely more "you", but I also like B since, despite being less detailed, I like the way you play with face expressions and your more relevant traits are still there and, as an artist is good to try new things and broaden your possibilities. Readig your thoughts, maybe you can draw on style A for higher tiers and B for lower ones?

Fernando Palacios Suárez

A > ___ MICA's Comics ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡ ___ > B > ___ Study Drawings ___ > C

stdnk

I won’t, the good thing about learning is that in the end you can always come back and draw all of them ^^ More knowledge is always the best option <3

NIXEU

The three styles are good but in my personal opinion I prefer A and C🙂‍↕️🙏

Daedric

Haha yeah I get that, and I do like the variation! Honestly with your skill I feel like you can't go wrong with any style, I love them all and if you want to switch things up every now and then please do, you have my support ^^

SirElnath

exactly sorry. the less detailed style is appealing to a wider audience but detailed is more appealing to a smaller core audience (at least for me)

Serku

I see, well that's a reasonable. I hope you don't lose the "Old Style" Identity. Because I know and admire your art from that style. Keep up, I'm still learning so I can paint an art like you and other artists

Kemas Bagus

That’s was in my very dark phase omg, I remember the moment I drew it, everything was going so bad x’D

NIXEU

Aw I’m glad you like it ^^

NIXEU

You will have to explain that “I had to” I’m interested

NIXEU

I think you mean that the new one is strongly stylized in comparison to the others. Stylised is less realistic and more free anatomically and with the color selection.

NIXEU

I've always been a fan of the styles in A. That was also what pulled me to follow and eventually join Patreon! Now I have some of your pics as backgrounds on my screens as I enjoy them so much(silvervale is one of them).

Willass Maximus

It’s like I can’t never get stuck on sth, after a while I have to change and try new things and then come back to old styles haha

NIXEU

I felt the same way, When i think of Nixeu, I think of great detail (mostly A, while C still lives up to the idea). Style B doesn't capture that as well.

Joe Johnson

A>C>B (A being the best in my opinion)

Joe Johnson

new style is less strongly stylized so its appealing to a wider audience but not very much for people like me who like your og style. its not different/unique enough to keep a buyers interest so i chose a/c

Serku

I chose A because I had to, but I love all your work. Honestly, I think I’m falling for you.

wimpix

The problem of drawing with standard colors is that a some point it becomes really boring doing the same process over and over, that’s why I always did different colours versions; (AI) is based on real artists

NIXEU

My favorites are A and B, but I'm going to vote for A, but I would really like you to still keep different styles because they are beautiful.

Mr. megriv

It's been fun watching you experiment with different styles and while the old style was what made me a fan of yours in the beginning, I absolutely love the new style ^^

SirElnath

I really like your style A/C artworks. They're why I followed you. I have to say that I was kind of disappointed when you change your style into style B

shang yao

Old Style A, I like it because it's looks more natural while the other pretty much looks like an AI. I've known you because the way you color is natural realistic color.

Kemas Bagus

I like seeing a mixture of styles. They all end up looking good. I do miss seeing these older styles at times though: https://www.patreon.com/posts/69955408?utm_campaign=postshare_fan

Lilisionnach

Makes sense. They are all good to be honest! I like the Ahri one a lot. Nice to see an example of the AB too

Thrownaxe

I said anime to be understood, but I didn’t draw anime yet. Let’s see bigger eyes, because in general, if we talk about rendering, it’s practically the same in all three styles. I did a combo of AB before it was an Ahri drawing from a few months ago, I think in November or October

NIXEU

Or some combo of mostly A with a little expressiveness from B. Anime style is all over the place. Don’t need ultra realistic but I think more realism is better. Just my humble opinion though
