obligatory post more (delicious) rodents or else

>>3171804

Shit not the dog man. Anything but the fucking dog, Shriney!

>>3171806
If the fucked dog is killed how we will get the shit of the man??

>>3171811
There's no question why certain Lassies have made gains, at the same time its painfully obvious why others suck a fat dick. All you have to do is go through their posts. You can't really lie when 100% of what you post is lazy.

>>3171820

THROW OUT SOME NAMES

>>3171820
Name the lazy lassies.
We need to help them!

Lokki and Sucrose sitting in a tree
D-r-a-w-i-n-g!

>>3171820

Who are the lazy ones? Don't just say something then not name them.

>>3171820
TELL US WHO YOU LITTLE BITCH

hey drawssos, it's n i c h e

the discord link should have expired because of preventative measures, any new members hoping to join will have to paypal me $5 :^^)))

here's the new invite link, once again because of [quality control] you will not be able to post until you have been a part of the discord for at least 10 mins

https://discord.gg/xXWGaCc

Shriney pls update the OP when you get a chance

>>3171907
If you need someone to tell you whether you're working hard enough, you aren't working hard enough.

THREADY

>>3171923
10 mintues of wait? that's nothing if you enter to fuck things up or whatever you mean by quality control.

>>3172021
it's to make it a bit more of a pain in the ass for people to come in and spam together, you've also gotta have a verified email w/ discord, this is a temporary measure as a couple /pol/ tier posters showed up and got banned

>>3171923
That picture, are you fucking telling me not to improve? WTF

>>3172029
mhm, how can i possibly hope to make it if you keep improving? need less competition

who climbs? who stands still? who falls?
and do you miss hazel and tuggy?

>>3172068
The updated one showcased that whoever was making those tier lists was /beg/ as fuck, don't fall for the meme.

Is Cath our Jazza?

>>3172153
why?

Am I gonna make it?

>>3172165
ask 8ball on the official™ drawing.today™ discord™

>>3172165
Yes

>>3172153
Cath here, is this Jazza? I don't like it D:

>>3172206
but jazza is a nice guy and perfectly bangable ;)

>>3172206
Eww why does his skin look so dead?

Anyway, keep working hard everyone!
The new site has really brought back life to the threads and I can already see a bunch of you getting real good!

>>3172211
There are 12 Posters dude, how do we breath some new life into this place?

>>3172217
I'm sure there's some lurkers like me still contributing but not posting every thread.

>>3172217
Start discussions or bring up individual people and talk about their art/progress to entice them to post

Which is your favorite submission for today so far?

>>3172234

>>3172234
Frankychan1's reminds me those early 2000's anime drawings that were everywhere and made me feel nostalgic.

naf you could get a job as a storyboard artist at this point

>>3172068
>Roughly Potential
God, that was a long time ago. Guess it’s time to join back, Drawing.Today doesnt seem too bad. Gotta go buy some ballpoints and hopefully start posting again. See you soon lassos

>>3172242
>ballpoints
my nigga

>>3172068
Tripfag is better than everybody that is ranked 7, this list is a whole lot of fucked up, I don't even know where to start.

I'd put Choob at a 4-5 since we know he can't draw without tracing a photo. He's the equivalent of a fighter who had a decent record only to get caught taking steroids, his whole career is suspect, every decent submission was probably traced.

Ranking him solely on imagination drawing hes a solid 4.

>>3172068
how long do you have to be on last to make the cool kids list?

can someone make another shitty tier list

it might help revive these threads

>>3172293
NO
I'm not ready to be tiered yet!

Naf and Papa are the only 9's push everybody else down to an 8 or 7.

how come most people dont link the ref they used

>>3172306
to look better than they are

>>3172306

>>3172306
you don't need to link it, just write study next to it or from ref. Only absolute beginners can use this as an excuse.

>>3172306
Kinda hard when you draw more than 3 things :)

>>3172344
ooooooooOOhh snap

>>3172306
It's fucking annoying to upload them

>>3172206
no offense but
>bad line quality
>same style of shading
>unnatural expression
>symbol drawing
>no improvement

>>3172604
Hey, I haven't even started with the color and shading yet.
I agree I'm pretty bad and my improvement is slow, but could you tell me where is symbol drawing in my last submission? I want to avoid that. Also how could I make the expression more natural?

>>3172745
>yet
there's no such thing as too soon for colors or you end up with the equivalent of dumbasses who can draw beautiful heads, and retarded mittens for hands

>>3172757
I thought you were referring just to my last submission. Here's a full colored piece I did this summer and that It's ok, I think.

>>3172773
>that shitty tree
>that difference between character and background
Forget what I said, It's shit.

>>3172773
Ah ok i misunderstood

that looks allright

>>3172757
Wouldn't it be better to properly understand values first? I find otherwise some use colors as a crutch much like they do with polishing a turd.

>>3172853
art is not a linear progress

>>3172774
The tree is the least of its problems because it's not supposed to be focused on

get back to drawing

how's life been treating you lassies doodies chums?

>>3173093
pretty bad m8, it's about to get a whole lot worse if I don't finish these drawings on time

>>3173093
Good, since I have talent

>>3173093
i'm regretting going to school an extra year to upgrade my credentials. now im stuck cause its too late to get a refund. all i want to do is learn art but i have to force myself to write reports about stupid shit i dont care about

>>3173093
How do I stop talking to people who are wasting my time by talking with them?

>>3173132
Punch them in the face, that will make them don't want to talk with you.

>>3173093
I think i will stop drawing ;<

>>3173251
see you again next week agemo

>>3173443
not him but i kinda feel the same :C
But i hope you guys will make it even if i won't GL

Here's a list of everyone who is hopeless and should just give up:

>>3173473
>tfw you never get mentioned

>>3173476
nibl, arxeny, mahgeeta, boo, agapa, wiinter, decentatanatomy, flyingskin, nirest

you are all hopeless and should just give up

>>3173476
You're never going to finish that embroidery and Umar is too good for you.

It's kind of a shit list though. Some of those people have good potential and you didn't even list the worst people on DED

>>3173561

That wasn't a list, that was a drive by shooting. But you want a list? I'll make a list.

>>3173093

its hard to keep drawing when i want to give in to depression

Good night lassos.

the website should have a like/kudos system so you can like posts and inflate the ego of those who get them

>>3173716
Good light nasso.

>osomatsu yaoi fanart
one of the two people in our community who is capable of such act has come back

>>3173728
I wanted to 'like' a lot of the submissions but im realy glad there isnt a like system. Comments are much better.

>>3173783
i've only ever seen w comment on something

>>3173783
what I want to see is an options to display number of comments in the thumbnail so I could check if someone commented on something because im a nosy fucks

>>3173515
this is shite, I don't see Choob on here so just ignore this list.

>>3173515
lmao first time anybody has mentioned me in an /ic/ thread. Not gonna give up though, gonna keep posting half assed sketches till I can be arsed to continue reading loomis.

>>3174774
I didn't submit then, what a stroke of luck

>>3174782
yeah lucky for us that we didn't get an extra bad submission

remember to link the ref of your study :)

>>3174799

>>3174798
How do you know? I could be anyone right now
Or do you speak in correct guesses

woops he did post yesterday, sorry I'll delete my post

>>3174841

>>3174844
That's what happens if you don't submit, dummy

>>3174872
What's your problem?

>>3174881
what do you mean

>>3174886
Why do you post pihori's submissions with these weird stickers

>>3174898
They're scratch and sniff. We go over this every time.

>>3174915
Please refer to
>>3174881

>>3174916

And I'm saying what's the problem?

>tfw all your drawings suck all the time

>>3174935
Me too - I'm trialling the skill to make the wrong thing

>>3174935
>all i wanna do is draw cute anime girls why must i suffer this mediocrity

>>3174982
Only drawing anime girls is the definition of mediocrity, lol. But hey whatever floats your mediocre boat man.

>>3174915
Bitch, I can't scratch my screen. Besides, I've never heard of stickers like that

good night lassos

>>3175063
>Besides, I've never heard of stickers like that

Your teacher never put stickers on your classwork in 1st grade or something?
>Bitch, I can't scratch my screen.
you have to imagine to sent

>>3175067

> good night lassos
> right now

you live in a SHIT part of the world you FUCK

>>3175079
We got toffee and lollipops not weak shit like stickers

>>3175090
You're lucky. Oh, now that I remember...back in kindergarten I went to a preschool/kindergarten school that my mom worked at (she was a teacher). We would have these games where we won prizes. I won a game and some black guy called me a faggot for wanting some other prize over a jumbo pokemon pencil. I don't recall what that item was, but if you'd ask me I'd think the pokemon pencil was a faggot choice. The pencil was pink and had blastoise and pikachu on it.

okay not my blog

Fuck does anybody else suffer from not trying hard enough unless trying something new? Always when I am trying to consistently do something I start to stagnate.

>>3175121
I know this feeling

>look up to lassos that are way better than me but lassos that are slightly better than me piss me off

>>3174872
Holy shit what? Pihori got suddenly way better? What kind of magic is this?

>>3175186

it's a good thing I'm hiding my powerlevel and posting year old work

>>3175186
It's that feeling of knowing you could do better than them but the truth is you don't and won't.

>>3175241
Except I will

yfw Naf is as good as he will ever get, and many of you will pass him in a few years. I've seen it happen time and time again.

>>3175258
>tfw will pass Naf but that still doesn't mean will make it

>>3175258

I realized this today. He sucks at drawing people but a god (in my eyes) at perspective.

>>3175258
>cursing another artist to stagnate forever because you haven't gotten good yet
Pretty mean, senpai. You can still improve your craft without shitting on someone.

>>3175279
go back to work jollibee

Lost my first streak of every other day, trying again with every day. Wish me luck guys.

>>3175279
a version of Naf always stagnates years down the line, its how the world works, go look through some old CA sketchbooks if you don't believe me. All of those Massive Black guys suck ass compared to alot of the kids who were posting at the same time as them, people get lazy and others stay hungry.

>>3175283
No.

>>3175290
Not familiar with Massive Black as a whole or their origin, but Even Mehl Amundsen is pretty good. Do you have any examples of their peers outpacing them despite being quite weaker in skill initially?

Anyway, to say that people who are skilled (relatively) early on eventually burn out or regress seems pretty counterintuitive. It happens, but it seems like most of the pros respected on /ic/ honed themselves early on and just never gave up. It seems weird to peg any lassie or other d/ic/k as preemptively getting outpaced.

>>3175307
Ruan Jia.

>>3175320
>Ruan Jia is also a product of the golden CA era
Whew, had no idea. Also, I'm super skeptical of him somehow being an underdog. CA's website never fucking loads attachments for me, but his first post on CA is followed by a ton of posts saying he's amazing.

>>3175279
It's not enough that I succeed. Others should fail.

>>3175342
Naf is in a contest to prove he is the best as we speak. He is one cocky son of a bitch.

>>3175258
>>3175279
>>3175352


Not that guy and I'm not hating on Naf either but he'll probably stagnate for 2 reasons. 1.) He's already an advanced artist, going from beginner to intermediate is one thing but going from advanced to mastery is a lot lot harder. And when I say advanced, I mean in terms of his drawing ability( anatomy, perspective, etc). He could probably still make big leaps with his painting if he focused on that but I'm guessing he won't. Second, he's going to college for engineering or something so he'll have a lot less time to devote to art.

I am feeling very tired and moderately stupid right now.

>>3175105
Why does it matter in your history that the guy was black?

>>3175686
are you saying that you don't care about black people?

Is arma our next pihori?

lokki and sucrose trade arts and draw themselves as a lesbian couple
I feel so lonely, how is your love life lassies doodies chums?

>>3175686
Sorry that was subconscious. I browse /pol/ too much that I refer to my own race in 3rd person when posting.

>>3175287
Good luck anon
Stop being a lazy shit

>>3171801
WAIT WHAT? WE CHANGED THE SITE? what happed with the old one? I hope is still there, got to get home to check the link

>>3175792
the new site is pretty tight imo

>>3175796
I might check it out once my right hand recovers enough

>>3173515
can't get mentioned if I am only a lurker

>>3175800
cant git gud either

>>3175105
Why does it matter in your history that the person was male? Please use nondescript, generic identifiers from now on, thank you.

These threads have actually gotten shittier than it was when nobody hardly posted anything. Is DED luring new people to the thread? I don't even know if all of this dick comparing talk is serious or somekind of ruse by the discord circlejerk.

>>3175748
I channel my loneliness and sexual frustration through my art of course!

>>3175803
Sorry, I will be more careful as to not just assume 1 of the 95 gender identifications, not including the 140 unofficial LGBTPQBC registered genders, in the future.

>>3175808
ok pedori

>>3175806
do you want people to post their sketches and submissions in this thread?

What's your end goal lasser chum doodles?

Do i want to people to ask proper questions/advice without shitposting?

Yes.

it will arise organically, no need to force

How can we mascot when you cant even make up ur mind on our name

>>3176074

Above and beyond that would be doing art for a living without worrying about money all the time

I made new challenge, prease join.

>>3176935
I.. have to come up with a cool magic bearer first!

Does anyone else struggle with consistency, I can draw something one day and it looks breddy gud, but the next day I can't even get face shape right.

>>3176950
yeah all the fucking time
and i sweat the uploads i dont want people to think that im getting shit

>>3176950
that's me every day

>>3176733
I love you too

does anyone else hear music when viewing profiles

>>3176975
i thought you were memeing me but its real

wheres my profile music eh

>https://drawing.today/profile/19

>>3176985
Is this the web dev equivalent of shitposting?

>>3176985
What the fuck
Why is it only suzukacircuit?

WHY IS EVERYBODY SUDDENLY A FURRY!!?
FUCK OFFFF GET OFF OF MY WEBSITE!!

>>3177051
I like to believe that in some ways I caused it

I WANT PROFILE MUSIC TO REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAHHHcouchhackweezEEE

>>3176985
>>3177112
W-why? What did I do? What should I do?

do you guys use multiply and color dodge layers for coloring?

>>3177237
not if i can help it

>>3176985

Kek i thought someone was XSS memeing but seems like our dear admin is at fault.

Now i kinda want to find out if the comment section has XSS holes.

>>3177237
if i'm doing a cel shade look or trying to mimic markers/water color I use multiply layer for shading and sometimes an overlay or screen for highlights. The multiply effect on a brush gives it a good watercolor/marker effect too.

>>3176762
At least we know it's an animal with all you furry fucks

>>3177253
it doesn't :^)

>>3177111
I'll add a upcoming/ongoing challenges thing to frontpage soon-ish.

remember when some lassos didn't want people to critique submissions?

>>3177339
back pats =/= critique

>>3177116
I cheked all the alive user's profiles, only Suzuka has it, are you lying?

W likes pedoshit :3

>>3177352

Guess it's time to start drawing pedoshit :/

>endorsing pedophillia while hating on furries

Beanhead, I checked some other users and I can hear it on theirs too.

>>3177388
link???

>>3177390
Wait it no longer plays anywhere now.

Here I am trying to have some fun, hoping it would go unnoticed for a while, but you guys found it in less than 24 hours. Too many people on suzus profile even tho posts once a week.

No fun now, removed.

>>3177395
you need to give music to posters who reach a certain streak say 50 days as a sign of prestige, but they don't get to chose the music but it has to fit their style.

so it can be a blessing or a curse

>>3177394
>tfw too late to hear the music
Fucking dev hours.

>>3177400
nah, music's annoying

>>3177395

> not letting users specify their own cancerous theme music

>>3177395
All it would take is the one lasso who looks at everyone's profiles every single day because he has nothing else to do.

>>3177404
come on now, nobody does this

>>3177403
A-are we bringing back being able to change our own page's theme with HTML and CSS too? Just like Myspace? Those were the great times!

>>3177395
I unironically have all the anime posters profiles open at all times in my tabs.

>>3176985

I think not...

Where the real degenerates at?

What the fuck? But really which lassie is from Florida. I don't know the other one because burgers don't know their European countries on a map.

>>3177582
No, that's the UK right?

>>3177582
>>3177583
Yeah it's the UK, it's accurate to cities, cant really expect more than that based on IPs. I have no way of telling who's actually who tho.

There is an excruciating pain in collecting experiences, reflecting on everything that leaves you awestruck and paralyzed by bright-eyed fascination.
Yet to be ugly inside and out, while yearning so desperately to contribute to the beauty you have found in the world.
And to do this, only to find how inadequate your inchoate skills are, and how impossibly distant the goal of contributing even slightly to those wonderful parts of the world, the same things that have tempted you a sense of wonder and ignited your futile ambition.

Masque here, thank you for that...
Hi guys, I hope I don't fail big time

Already some nice submissions today lassies keep it up

ohai

daily reminder that you should check out moderndayjames for drawing lession and marco bucci for painting lession on youtube

https://youtube.com/watch?v=8FzHV2h29zE

https://youtube.com/watch?v=-ZknWKTpc90

plus they're both cuties

>>3179356
Thanks avatarnigger!

>>3179356
>an IRL person just recommended me to check out moderndayjames
Hm...

>>3179366
totally me 2bh

>>3179366
what do you mean?

what is with that guy that doesnt improve? literally every drawing has the same mistakes

>>3179486

That guy you're looking at will outshine many lessos and deddos beyond the sea can sea. They are a diamond in the rough just waiting to be pulled out.

>>3179486
maybe he should draw directly over a photo and sample colors from said photo.

>have an assignment in class that involves replicating an artist/studio's style in your own work and then researching their background and influences
>someone picks Ghibli
>they show me the drawing they're going to study
>50% confident it wasn't a Ghibli product
>look for the art back at home
>sure enough it's fanart
Should I say something? I feel like I should before we actually start working on our drawings but I don't want to seem like a creeper.

>>3179612
Tell them before you embarrass yourselves

Man I'd really like to offer critique to people that request, but I feel like I'm not good enough to. I think it would help if they requested a specific aspect to critique, most of the time I feel like you could say "everything needs work" and I would be pretty accurate.

>>3179678
>but I feel like I'm not good enough to
because you aren't

>>3179664
Thankfully this is a solo project but yeah, I'll give them a headsup. I just feel weird explaining to them I googled it later over the weekend because being incredulous of anyone at Studio Ghibli drawing it bothered me.

>>3179678
Approaching critique from "what can they fix now within reasonable time and their means" might help. It's a lot easier for people to remember lessons from critique about specific elements of their drawing than the rote "read loomis perspective is easy etc." comment.

Also I get you. I'm not good or anything, but I feel really uncomfortable about being asked to look at less experienced people's drawings because my standards for acceptable art are so warped. I sound fake as fuck trying to gush over their art.

>>3179695
Just tell the person you noticed something looked off about the piece to you so you looked it up. Shouldn't be much of a creeper move, just your professional curiosity.

>>3179732
Actually don't even have to say it looked off, can say you liked it so you wanted to look it up and then found out randomly.

>>3179735
Damn, thanks, anon. That's smooth as fuck.

Think I fucked something up earlier today. Don't use 'www' when going to the site for now, you'll just be stopped by invalid https certificate warning. Hopefully nobody dies as a result.

THE SITE IS DOWN EVERYBODY PANIC

telling finlay not to fuck up is like telling jerry to stop making the same mistake again and again

>>3180159
I seriously think that jerry is retarded. Like an actual condition not a slur.

>>3180116
It's about an hour since I made this comment. Time to upload

aaaaaaaaaaah

I don't understand how letting out a small amount of digital poetry by typing "aaaaaaaaaah" is supposed to rectify your pain

Heh...
I'll just draw 20 days worth of art in one day, then post just one bit of it a day to keep my streak...

>>3180747
You're only hurting yourself so go ahead

>family cutting my internet

ah what a blessing...no more distractions

>>3180754

You shouldn't jerk off so loudly my boy.

>>3180747
at this point I don't think anyone but the top streak box people give a shit about streaks

>>3180756
i kinda care about streaks, but i joined way after the site was made
it's only to make sure im still drawing, not to pretend im hot shit

>>3180757
>it's only to make sure im still drawing
same

>>3180758
im pretty sure that's the whole point of the website anyways, just minor incentive to keep drawing and a community that doesnt want you to stop, right?

>>3180759
>and a community that doesnt want you to stop, right?

Well you see back then there was something called week 1 and then...

Fixed the security warning when visiting the site with www finally. That was :sweaty_palms: for a bit. Nobody complained tho it seems, so that's good.

I'll remove the stream box on frontpage for now and replace it with upcoming/ongoing challenges. Probably pushed to live in about an hour (haven't started yet). Seffy's halloween challenge starting from tomorrow and going for 12 days. Hope you all got some spooky things to put out. Haven't really been doing anything with the site lately besides the little change to the top bar, no new functionality, cause I'm a little bored/burnt atm, but that'll probably pass soon enough. The site is self sustained tho so I don't really have to do anything besides pay attention to error log (which have been very few thankfully) to fix any bugs and add new functionality when I feel like it.

As far as new users go, the initial burst of new people visiting have tampered off, but the people visiting every week or every day have been very stable throughout.

Page views site-wide has now hit 55 000. The last number I gave of 10 000 was wrong, I just looked at the last month, not all time. :') There's about 1 500 - 3 000 daily views from what seems to be about 100 unique frequent users and 600 occasionals.

>>3180759
For now at least that's probably the only thing it has to offer yeah. I read all the comments (about 300 total now) and submission descriptions and it's been pretty healthy as far as I can tell. Naf getting his dick sucked quite a bit but that's fine. If you have any ideas as to what other benefits the site could offer I'm open to ideas.

>>3180771
daily challenges could be nice, but i'm not sure anyone would do them

i'd say contests if the site was about anything other than drawing

>>3180771
Where are all those number coming from? We don't even have that much /ic/ users just from going off the number of posters and strawvote threads.

>>3180791

I bet someone is linking stuff somewhere

>>3180791
Dunno, besides 4chan, there are some referrals from tumblr, but not a whole lot.

Here's the amount of comments everyone's gotten if I remove comments they made themselves. Maybe that's interesting to someone, idk.

>>3180830
the official popularity list
1-2 comments: art nerds
3-5: cool guys/gals
>5: las stardom

>>3180837
it's niggers like you who ruin the fun for everybody on this website

>>3180837
comments are only for critique, so it implies the more comments you get the more SHIT you are haha!

>>3180830
Is there an easy way to see if you have any comments on any of your submissions?
>tfw not on the list

>>3180841
>naf is the shittiest haha!!!

>>3180844
box bottom right on front page. you probably dont have any

>>3180841
Except Lokki and naf from this adage

>tfw i had to delete 50 gb of porn to make room for erik olson's perspective

>>3180849
>you probably dont have any
I'm still beg-tier and my submission are often a bit meager, it still hurts a little bit.

;_;

Wait: if I fail I die and I'm rewarded with eternal sleep? If I mess my streak up again I'm going to drink a bottle of absinthe, I win either way

>>3180840
so you dont want me around anymore

>>3180857
i love you avatarnigger, don't leave

>>3180857
I was really upset when you left the first time, please don't do it again!

>>3180854
>think anon is joking
>go check my olson file size
>43 gb
I forgot I actually downloaded that much. Jesus, how did I do it? I don't even watch all of his videos.

>>3180856
No; Tibetan Buddhism states that if you continue to care about your success in the Arts instead of practicing dharma you'll come back to life as a hungry spirit (or maybe just an animal)

>>3180857
You contribute absolutely fuck all, so yes, begone.

>>3180862
>starving artist
>hungry spirit
so the only difference is that we can haunt things?
