has anyone ever thought about becoming a youtube artist as a.. profession? I mean, people can and do make a living out of it. I have seen youtubes of artists who only have digital speedpaints with background music and have 200k+ views on each, as well as artists who put themselves more out there, do reviews, talk about art shit, etc. Surprisingly or unsurprisingly, most of them are pure shit at drawing. Draw with Jazza is an eyesore, Baylee Jae draws like a 10 year old, and sycra... so it's not like the bar is set too high.

I hate to break it to you, but 200k subs is not going to be enough to make Youtube a fulltime job. You can make a little extra money on the side, but it will not be your job.

The thing about them though is that it takes a good 3 or 5 years for your channel to build up, and that's only if you're doing all those gay chalenges or drawing popular things. Bonus points if you're a artsy girl. But even if your channel has blown up do you really want to be doing that kind of shit for a living. And there's always the risk that your fanbase just moves on to the next channel or youtube fucks your revenue up, then what are you going to do. Maybe if you're good enough you could offer other services like mentoring or gumroad type shit.
I think about making videos all the time because I'd probably enjoy it. But I don't think I'll ever make much, if any, money on it.
