One. Seriously consider not using social media reactions as a good way to adequately judge the merit of your own work. See point three below
Two. Stylisation is great. My downs syndrome comment was a harsh way of saying the stylisation you were doing at the time wasn't really something I personally would find enjoyable to look at nor would be likely to get you much work "in the industry" since that is what you were lamenting about a bit at the time.
The work you did since then focusing on basics have very clearly and significantly increased your technical skill in a way that just doing those pinups hadn't for a long time. So don't be so quick to dump on something that has shown tangible results.
It's good that you want to follow your own way, that's what everyone should do all the time really as long as they are honest with themselves at all times.
Three. I've been saying this basic message to you about not caring what others think of your work for well over two years dude. Glad you finally seem to be realising it yourself!
