Frustrated

Anyone else have issues with putting hours of work into something for it to get no downloads or upvotes?

    Thank you all for your support everyone. Also yeah I noticed my wind scythe has a bad camera angle I was taking pictures quickly because I was on break at work. I also work off an android phone. Which I've heard the PC is so much better which I'm saving up for eventually so I can build better stuff. I've been even working on my builds putting more detail in them so they dont look so cartoonish. But I lack ideas sometimes. I notice people like the simpler stuff though as well because a lot of people work off mobiles my old account that's all I ever built but I got an upgraded phone with more ram so it could handle up to 700 to 800 parts unlike my tablet which barely held 115 parts before losing framerate. I like building racers and drag vehicles that could do massive amounts of speed yet be stable considering such like the realistic Bugatti veyron or Hennessy venom with its 300 miles an hour any faster it takes flight lol. I spend hours nodding and changing things till they are almost perfect for racing some of my proto types though still need work an I've been getting a little bit lazy with my work on some of them because i lose interest. But i also like criticism on my vehicles because other people can catch things I dont so I can make them better on v2 and v3 or further if they get a lot of likes.

    @Aerofy no matter how much effort you had put into designing a plane realistically, a low effort P51 replica or any other replica with much less detail will get more upvotes. Unless you are a platinum user with a large follower base, in which case you can build whatever you like and not worry about the post getting burried

    @Blue0Bull I worked on a plane for a year and a half and I got no upvotes!

    @Adityo0502 Also, replicas will ALWAYS get more upvotes than fictional planes.

    To complete what @Aerofy said:
    "welcome to simpleplanes. Looks and presentations are everything. and if you are on ios or android, then tough luck lol"

    It’s all about presentation, i’m assuming your recent build you’re referring to is the ‘wind scythe’ which has a default background and an odd camera angle. People will judge from this alone, you’ll need to use a custom background mod if you are on pc or a better camera angle on mobile
