Better known as LiquidFrogStudios on DeviantArt. Hobbyist artist and entertainer. This site hates me though...
I mostly draw fanart & furry girls right now, but I have a bolder ambition of creating my own multimedia franchise, especially video games.

I'm 99% sure if the person who scouted you was unscouted, your scout is transfered to some staff automatically, which would mean that you were unscouted consciously.
I'm sorry to hear that happened to you. IDK the inner workings of NG too much since I'm new here, but from what I can guess you were probably unscouted due to not being skilled enough?
Looking at your art, you definitely seem competent enough to be allowed in the art portal, but not with every piece.
Ripping off the bandage, some of your pieces are pretty rough. Poor lighting and bad anatomy is showing up quite a lot, as well as a general lack of style on some of them.
But you DO have some nice pieces. My personal favorite might be "Half Mermaid", the varying line thickness, abstract head shape, blue glowing eyes, all work towards giving it a lot of character. Your PFP is also very cute and has a similar charm to it.
My guess is that you got unlucky and a mod checked out some of your lesser pieces. I'm not sure the best way to be rescouted, since you're now banking on a mod having to see your art and decide to scout you, which is very unlikely if you keep asking to be scouted. I'm sorry, and i wish this system on NG was better. You shouldn't be stuck as a second class citizen because you were unscouted. If you were deemed unworthy of being scouted~ the punishment should be on the person who scouted you in the first place, not you.

Yeah, I suppose that's possible. Which is a shame... like you say, not ALL my art is bad.
Thanks for giving me some constructive feedback, unlike some of the other people on this site who would just tell me I suck and don't deserve to be noticed. Yeah, you are right that some of my artworks, especially older ones from a couple of years ago, have rather weak anatomy. Anatomy has not been my strong suit, though I have been trying to improve that over the course of the past year or so by using more references, but I still have a bad habit of reusing old lineart due my lack of free time available for drawing... I'm glad you still enjoyed a few of my pieces though, like the mermaid and my PFP. I'll try and make my art style more consistent going forward.
At this point I'm not really expecting to be rescouted any time soon, but I would at least like to be ABLE to be rescouted again, which is something that even new users have that I don't for whatever reason? I guess I'll just have to ask the staff about it some time soon... I really don't like the scouting system, though I probably should do better to watch my mouth: I've publicly criticised the website on a number of occasions now, and it's possible the staff took that into account when deciding whether I should remain scouted when my scouter was descouted (can't say for sure, but it's a possibility). You're right, I don't deserve to be punished like this, just for accepting an offer to have my art given more exposure shortly after joining the website and wondering why nobody was seeing my art.
