Re: OP of 151...

A lot of the same things apply for fanart. If there are a ton of fanartists doing basically the same thing, you might get less response, or conversely, very few fanartists, because the fandom doesn't know quite what to make of it. Or else you choose a subject who isn't that popular, or a pose that is generic. It's surprising how important context is even in art.

Think of it this way, if you are drawing everyone's favorite character in a straight forward, arms down pose, smiling, your picture (while distinctly yours) really doesn't have anything new to offer. If however you draw your favorite character being tentacle raped by squid -- chances are they've never seen that before. You'll get a lot of responses not because of the quality, but because you've given them something new. (You don't have to do tentacle rape, but maybe having him leaping a stream or attacking an enemy or something.)

It's harder to draw dynamic poses, but also more rewarding.
