Tried posting a flat JPEG instead of a layered PSD preview. Huge difference.

I usually post my finished art as flattened images. Just the final look. But last month I put up two versions side by side. One was the final piece. The other was a screenshot of my layers panel with the lineart and flats visible. People went crazy for the behind the scenes look. Got like triple the comments I normally get. Someone asked how I handled shadow layers. Never got that kind of question from a flat image. Makes me think people wanna see the process, not just the polish. Anyone else get better feedback showing your messy work?

Yeah, people really do eat up seeing the messy layers stuff.

My friend saw one of those and spent like 20 minutes just staring, @stellachen.
