(Anonymous) 2014-11-10 01:17 am (UTC)(link)I was actually having this discussion with an artist friend a while ago and they could knock out a decent piece of artwork - say a 3/4 character piece with a reasonable background - in about a fifth of the time it would take me to write a decent-length oneshot. And I'm not an especially slow writer.
Depending on the fandom/characters, my fic would get about a fifth of the notes their artwork got. But I do it myself. It takes seconds to like a picture you find good, but many people including myself don't always have the time it takes to read a fic thoroughly.
So I agree with both points; there does seem to be a discrepancy between fic and art but they're also two very different things that demand different things from a viewer than they would a reader,

A video or a decent, as you say, fanart takes about three days, while a long chapter takes a whole week (and then perhaps goes to the beta). If someone works on it on evenings, that is.
