FAQ:
Something's broken, what do I do?

>The site is currently in the alpha phase of development and is being built around us as we compete so sometimes things go wrong. If you ever need any help send me a tweet @LavaFlake or shoot me an email lava@lavaflake.com.

What do we draw?

>Whatever you want. At this point there's no required topic so draw your heart out. Make sure you submit at least a half hour of work or you may get a low effort warning.

What's a low effort warning?

>The goal is to get people to draw every day by turning it into a competition. The low effort warning system is to prevent people from posting last minute, quick sketches when they're feeling lazy. If you receive a warning and it happens again within a month you'll be eliminated.

>This rule has been the cause of a lot of concern amongst newer artists so let me reiterate: this system is to police low effort content and has nothing to do with the quality of the work. New artists are more than welcome.

What happens if I'm eliminated?

>A new Last Artist Standing challenge starts every week. If you get eliminated then get it together and rejoin next week.

How can there be a new Last Artist Standing challenge every week?

>This is a way to let new artists join in and to allow re-entry for the eliminated. Every week a new challenge is started. If you joined on week 1 and make it to week 2 then your daily submission counts for both the first and second Last Artist Standing. If you get eliminated then you're eliminated from both challenges and you'll be able to rejoin next week.

Will I have an advantage if I join later in the week?

>The winner of a Last Artist Standing will be the artist with the longest streak. If you join on day 1 and last until day 85 then you'll have a streak of 85. If there's only one person left in the challenge when you're eliminated but they joined on Day 7 then they'll need to continue on for another week. If they're eliminated before then, you win.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Can we have an erp channel on the discord? I wanna cu~m with all of you!~~

>>2634102
that's too lewd senpai... :s

how do I best a scene where a person quickly jumps away from one position (eg strong superhero jumps with a lot of force)

>>2634102
>>2634106
kys

>>2634108
you have to convincingly show the motion

>>2634128
>you have to convincingly show the motion

i was thinking more abuot the place where he jumped, and less about the guy himself. Basically how do I draw shockwaves and all of that stuff

>>2634132
by looking up how to draw them

>>2634136
try googling shockwave

>>2634132

Go look up some shounen manga and copy the effects. One punch man, dragon ball z , etc

>>2634132
>how do I draw shockwaves
heh, just pay attention next time i pound you're mom

>>2634108
If the superhero is strong/heavy/swole then try show the weight and how it takes effort for them to leap. Anticipation is a very important animation principle but works for comics and other kinds of art too; showing them powering up like a spring or like a tiger about to leap shows the viewer that though they can jump, they're big and heavy and it takes some strong muscle work to propel them.

One more step towards getting lava back :^) >>2634418

>>2634184
I saved this from /ic/ a while back

What made you decide/want to be an artist /las/sies? Was there a particular moment you made a choice? Or you've steadily become more and more interested/invested in it?

>>2634478
I always enjoyed Art and was fairly decent at it. Browsed /ic/ for a while but never put in the effort to improve.

A couple months back I decided I needed to make a real change in my life and start improving myself. I started putting in a lot more effort into my art and work.

My daily time is still fairly low, but at least it's getting a bit better every day.

>>2634184

>>2634478
I always drew when I was a kid and I wanted to be a "cartoonist." ( I liked animated cartoons but I didn't really know anything about animation) But now that the 2d animation industry has been maimed, murdered and repeatedly pissed on in the west, I don't really know what to do anymore. I still enjoy drawing tho so I guess I just wanna git gud even tho I don't have any clear goals in mind.

>>2634478
everyone in my family drew and/or painted so I picked it up and I found I liked it

>>2634478
It was anime and manga. It just makes you want to draw some too. Of course, they made it seem easier than it is.

>>2634430
well, even good artists make mistakes

What's a word stronger than 'hate'? I need to be able to accurately describe how I feel about Lava.

>>2634819
love is always stronger than hate.

>>2634824

I'm glad it's ending because I'm running out of excuses for not getting more work done.

hey /las/ i havent watched anime since 3 seasons ago
did I miss anything worth watching?

>>2635058
meme zero

pokemon xy&z is pretty hype right now though

>>2635058
shirobako, hibike, ping-pong and some might argue for luluco

>>2635072
>meme zero
clown anime for clown

>>2635058
Looking back, the only show I can say I fully enjoyed was Shouwa Rakugo, and the ending arc of AssClass. Everything else ended up being mediocre.

>>2635100

I always end up liking the shows mal hates and 95% of the time all the shows mal likes are meh to me. Then again these ratings are probably skewd by tweens who have seen less than 100 animes and "reviewers" who are assbothered by the cliches because they've "seen it all" and prefer rich wine everytime.

>>2635103
I ignore mal. I do a first episode marathon at the start of the season, anything promising gets 3 episodes, and if I haven't lost interest by the third episode, I finish it.

Only problem is things like SamFlam or Mayoiga last season, where they take too many episodes to go wrong and I feel like I'm too far in to not finish.

>>2635113

Mayoiga was a good troll.

>>2634819

I honestly don't know why I am getting so many views.

>>2636475
Same, I just wanna hit the bed and sleep today =3=

>>2636480
Pretty sure the worst thing I've drawn for LAS has the most views. It has to be people looking for tribunal cases. There's no other way to explain it.

>>2636480
>>2636489
>>2636457

>>2636489
>tfw people like my worst lowest effort drawings and my best get no attention
I feel the same way too, kinda scary

>>2636493
I did, it didn't work mane

Anybody else wished they dropped out earlier? I don't think anybody even cares at this point, might've been fun to go out at the high point of las.

>>2636592
Why earlier? Who should care? Why do you care about the high point?
If your goal isn't to get better at art, then don't let the door hit you on the way out.

>>2636489
>>2636457
>>2636493
I'm new to this, how do you check your views?

>>2636596
by killing yourself

>>2636594
This.

>>2636592
You shouldn't be drawing because LAS tells you to. You should already be drawing everyday, and LAS should just be a venue for you to post some of your work and showcase your efforts.

>>2636592
>wishing you stopped drawing after 3 months because the memes were better
>visiting /ic/

Pick only one or end your life.

>>2636596
Some image hosts have view counters, like da and imgur.

>>2636594
>>2636599
>>2636600
I said quit LAS not stop drawing. I was drawing everyday before LAS and I'm sure I'll still be drawing everyday after. I joined LAS for the community and motivation, it doesn't really provide me with either of those now.

>>2636604
Well, you know where the door is.
There are obviously people still posting in the thread. Instead of complaining about how dead it is, try starting a conversation, making a challenge, whatever. Be the change you want to see.

>>2636608
alright. What are you working on anon? Tell me about your goals.

Please no, it's such an uninspiring topic.

How was the number for everyone? I kind of want to keep it at 100 drawings, but make it clear in the rules that doing less is fine. Thoughts?

>>2636652
I was panicing

>>2636656
oh that's not so bad. I'll make sure I have LOTS of time to upload it next time. I thought 10 minutes would be plenty how dumb was that

>>2636663
try stay on the other side of the deadline
meaning if you submit the thing now, and then always keep to the same time, you'll always have 23hrs or so time before the clock changes

>>2636664
>mfw just uploaded yesterday's drawing as today's

>>2636601
Oh, that makes sense.

Thanks anon

>>2636665
You'll fall down into the 23:30 club in time, everyone does eventually

>only 1 community challenge left and it finishes in 3 days

Anyone got any good ideas for new challenges?

>>2636661
tell me about the anatomy challenge? I missed it

>no one submitted anything to Treasure Map
sad

I've been thinking about starting the animation challenge Level 3 pretty soon. I think the last one drained almost everyone since very few people got passed the first 1 or 2 animations so I've been trying to hold off on making it for a while. You guys still interested?

>>2636667
>tfw Week one and been freeman ever since

>>2636675
I'd love to join in on an animation challenge one day but traditional + beginner + travelling abroad soon'll be the death of me ( ノ ﹏ ヽ )

I think keeping it as a monthly thing and letting people hop on and do the level they're on is best, like how the comic challenge resets every month

>>2636675
I had to actually look up the exercises to see if I'd be up for it.
I'll give it a shot, but there are more than last time so I don't know how easy it will be for everyone to complete...

>>2636681
I think you can start at level one if you haven't done the other challenges.

I just made a new challenge, it's a study plan for dynamic wrinkles and drapery by Burne Hogarth

still angry i couldnt get my FUCKIGN drawing in on time thanks to FUCKBOY imgur

>small brown crush - I don't know what it's made of but it holds a fuck ton of water, I use this for things like skies that need loads of water

LAAAVAAAAAAA
RRRREEEEEEEEEEEEE

If we pray to lava, maybe he'll come back

Our Lava, who draws in hospice
hollered be thy name

Fun simple ones in between the heavy fundies challenges. It seems like every time there's a potentially fun challenge, there's some added clause that makes it no longer fun. That or it happens right when there's a bigger challenge for studying.

>>2636967
Second.

FUCKING CANADIAN LEMUR COME BAAAAAACK

shh, no lemurs, only tears now

Lava where the fuck are you

>>2637225
you missed a verse. contacting nuns right now to crack your knuckles with rulers.

>https://picarto.tv/SubCryo
sub and namefag stream

>It was my 30th birthday a while ago and my mom wanted to surprise me with a birthday cake. I guess she really wanted to surprise me because when she arrived, instead of knocking or just letting herself in, she lit the candles for the cake out in the hall outside my apartment. She also decided to use like 30 candles. Little did she know she was standing right beside the fire alarm/smoke detector.

>She didn’t just set off the little smoke alarm in my apartment. She set off the one that sounds off throughout the entire apartment complex.

>I was asleep when she arrived because I’m irresponsible and my sleep schedule is always a disaster so I was awoken to the sounds of a fire alarm and my embarassed mother holding an inferno of a birthday cake. It was an ok cake. She visited for a couple hours to hide away from having to walk through the smoke filled hall.

>The alarm had been set off earlier that month by another resident and the fire department had to come turn off the alarm. I don’t know if since then the landlord learned how to handle the situation because thankfully no firetrucks arrived.

>That was the most exciting part of my birthday. I’m old now

Somebody make a challenge to tell Lava to FUCKING COME BACK AND GET IN CONTACT WITH ITS FUCKING COMMUNITY HOLY SHIT

>>2637277
>neuroplasticity completely drained

>>2637278
As much as I want Lava to come back, I don't think he will. Lava's goal was to get gud, not create a website. We were his side project, which would've been fine if he were healthy, but under that much stress it's easy to abandon things you start on a whim.

I just wish he'd take responsibility and pass it on to someone more involved, or at least share the burden.

>>2637279
>not getting all lassies to submit in order and have each thumbnail be part of a giant lemur picture

Pitiful desu

Also you want Lava back so bad, but what specifically do you want him to do to the site.

FEED MORE VIRGIN LASSES
SACRIFICE MORE WEAK ONES
IMMOLATE THE FLAWLESS
OFFER UP YOUR TOKENS

>>2637287
Not him, but I just want him around. I don't care if he does jack shit.
Kind of like Moot. What did he ever do? Not much, but he at least made appearances and hung out with us.

Had yet another nightmare about being eliminated lads

My family started making fun of me and I started throwing things and REEEEEEEEing them to get out my room while my dad called grandparents to tell them I failed at that Russian hacker website's art challenge I'd wasted all year on, and that I'd now be stocking shelves at a "real job" or be thrown out

>>2637757

All I wanted was to make it into the final ten. NICE. I'm not planning on dropping out, but if I fuck up at least I'll have made it this far.

>>2637764
>placing me not even top ten
it hurts

>>2637780
It depends when you dropped out familyman, that's just the order they fell, VitaminNeko first.

>>2637784
well sure, but being eliminated from your week and dropping out of LAS is two things
it's the amount of days that matters after all

Weekwunners dropping like flies too. Here's a map with the last 10 flawless marked out.

Fixed so the halos don't cover any name tags now.
This is week one chart with the final 10 flawless highlighted.

The mental image of this is adorable.

LAVA DO YOU NOT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT US
WHERE ARE YOU

lava please respond i love you

Someone give me tips or a video on doing greyscale coloring

>>2637878
What part of it do you need help with? Knowing which values to choose? I recommend you look at some greyscale photos for reference. Use contrast in values to make things stand out.

Or do you mean coloring a greyscale image? You can do the values in one or more layers, then have a color mode layer above them and paint on that, it'll add hue without changing the values. But personally I think it usually ends up looking pretty shitty, so if I paint greyscale first I only fill in rough colors on the color layer and then paint directly with color on a layer above that to refine it. Either way, make sure you have variation in your hues. Coloring with a color mode layer over greyscale is like shading with black, it looks flat and crappy.

You were crossed out today almonde

>>2637978
Nevermind. Turns out I just didn't realize I missed a day while I was in the hospital =/

A bit depressing, but oh well.

>>2638013
Ganbatte Cyan, at least you're sticking around unlike other flawless who missed a day.

I drew for six fucking hours today and instead of just uploading early I just had to finish my piece of shit drawing. Some friends showed up unannounced and I completely fucking forgot. End. my. life.

I only realized it an hour ago and I was so upset I just went home. I'm so mad.

Stay safe Milwaulkee bros

Lassies are thinking

( ⇀ ‸ ↼ )

can you delete your old submissions
like the ones a week ago etc.?

I regret this one thing I drew and I want it out of my blog

no penalties for that right?

>>2638442
No of course not, go ahead!

>>2638442
if its on ur tumblr just delete it? link on las wont work anymore

>>2638442
There are no rules covering it, and plenty of users have dead links in their submissions, it's a gray area. There aren't any direct penalties however there was the case of Santi v. The People wherein a dead link was used as evidence in the tribunal to convict, but it turned out to be due to deviant art's link fuckery and the tribunal ruled in Santi's favor.

Week1 here, it has been fun but I got bored of the site, today I will lost my token, and tomorrow I will be eliminated.
See you soon.

I was going to rejoin today, but I'm not happy with what I drew :^(

>>2638589
please be true

I want to be good at arting but i don't want to practice

>>2638598
Who doesn't ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

>>2638598
lazy lazy do you think you'll make it being scuh a laazy daisy? get off your ass senpai

>>2638598
It wouldn't be a skill worth having if it were easy. I want to sweat and struggle and despair until I finally reach my goals after years of hard work.

>>2638639
This
But make sure that once you reach your goals, you set new ones.

>>2638639
>>2638678
my goal is to be able to draw zoro in really cool pictures like this one doign really cool things

currently reading loomis

>>2638679
I think that's a nice goal
I believe in you anon

>>2638682
thank you anon! do you have a goal?

>>2638598
you're pathetic.

>>2638687
alright big bollocks, what's your goal then?

>>2638685
My goal right now is just to be able to draw appealing looking characters that fit my preferences.

Ultimately I want to design creatures and characters and put them into interesting settings that tell a good story. I have some comic and animation ideas but I have no idea how long I'll be holding onto those.

Things like pic related I love, because on the surface it's pretty, maybe even with a hint of emotion, but it's the type of image where you can look at it multiple times and notice something new.

>>2638697
I like this goal, it's similar to my zoro one I think. If the artist to your image heard you talking about it like that I think he'd be really flattered, I hope one day people will say that kind of stuff about my art. I've got a really long way to go.

LIST YOUR GOALS ANONS!

I want to be a master animator. Once I git gud my short films will revitalize 2d animation in the west and everyone will wonder why they thought animation was just for kids. Oh and I also wanna make some dope ass comics.
