So, I'm an IP creator, for those of you who don't know, it's something like hello kitty, capoo bugcat, to put it simply I draw comics and animations for my characters, sell their merch, etc
Me and my IP partner decided to get in touch with other IP creators, for connections
We had a video call with one of the IP creator, he's surprised when he saw our face, (we never really showed our face to public) and stated that we could get more engagement by "selling our face".
To put it simply, he said that as a creator, people will be more interested in your work if they see your face and your lifestyle. He said that our face can definitely sell out and help our brand gain more reach.
He then ask for our personal instagram, we gave him. He then said that he's interested to become our manager, he said that beside our current job as IP creator we could be cosplayer and vlogger with such face.
"You both have beautiful faces that can sell out and definitely increase your brand reach. But Flowergurl (me) is fat, u need to fix that then you'll be perfect"
I'm kind of conflicted and his word kinda hurt my feeling. I never really want to show my face, I don't like it when people judge my art based on my looks, my mentality is not strong enough too if people leave hate comment on my appearances.
Throughout my life, my face do have some good points that my country consider to be good, double eyelids, large round eyes, defined nose, thick eyebrows and long eyelashes etc. But my body is not what they desired, especially in the cosplay community, u know, busty, curvy body, thick thighs, short body, short compact legs.
I'm not overweight, my weight is normal, but then again the beauty standards in my place prefer underweight girls than the normal one.
I'm conflicted, should I sell out my face, as what he mentioned it will increase my brand's reach, but I'm not comfortable with it, what should I do??
