/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

I want inktober to be over reeeee

>>4175934
I regret dropping out, I have been in an art slump ever since

I am repeating this to get final proper confirmation on whether this will be a problem for anyone.

The current plan is this:
> Maintain the current cap of 10 MB filesize. Lower to a minimum of 5 MB if this is an issue moving forward (this likely will not happen).
> Implement file resizing to a minimum between 2000 and 4000 pixels in any dimension. Special considerations for unusually elongated content will be made.

Please let me know if you take any issue with this before I act upon it during the weekend, and apologies for all the inconvenience.

Anyone remember this?
If I recall correctly, it's been a whole year and a half already (site was actively usable in April).
Any new guesses?

That's so sweet anon, I really like that a whole lot, it's also very cute. Also good morning to you too!

>>4175916
Wow cute OP girl.

new thread new tierlist go go go

>>4175980
I think it's a good idea desu. I say go for it Banoon!

why did dad channel get nuked on the discord?

I read all of bananas updates even though I never commented.

>>4176091
I'll make one today.

>>4176091
I'm on it!

>>4175980
DO IT
JUST DOOO IT

>>4175980
do it

>>4176146
This is The Thing (prequel) tier

>>4176146
is this what bunnyburger looks like except dog version?

>>4176146

Jesus christ what the fuck

>>4176107
the las discord has long since stopped being anything about las let alone dad

>>4176107
On unofficial discord #sketches: use your dad nickname, post your work, and shout "PICK ME UP!". You'll eventually enter the official.

>>4176207
I thought the phrase was "FUCK ME DADDY!"

>>4176208
It works too. Perhaps, it will be even faster to get you in.

>Please comment on each other artwork because DAD's children love attention

No matter the daddy, I remain ignored

Banana, you should really just code some kind of tierlist on the site. If people don't want to be on the list just have an opt out button.

>>4176311

>>4176233
do you post everyday?

>>4176233
Maybe you're just that boring.

>>4176233

>>4176340
I didn't know /dad/ was part of a theatrical circus.

>>4176345
t. drawaboxer

>>4176346

What is that?

>>4176351
The kind of person that fills the page with straight lines, boxes and ovals.

>>4176355
So you're making fun of me?

>>4176356
Welcome to magic circus.

You're just jealous of my drawaboxer.

this thread is a bully central, where is my safe space you ignorant ass crack sniffing wrist drawers

Typical tier 1 behavior.

>>4176377
post names

>>4176146
holy cool. Please give me your social medias, I need to learn from you

I thought las threads were supposed to be comfy

Bully tier list when?

>>4176385
we also need a tier list for the victims

just name names already stop beating around the bushes

>>4176383
escape to the discords while you can, threads are bully territory now!

I need more drama!

I'm sure when the Tribunal comes around you'll have all the drama you want.

tfw will be tribunaled off of dad entirely if it ever gets implemented

I am so grateful I joined dad
I am aiming for a year to begin with and im getting there but I think I've come quite far already from day 1 and I couldn't have done it without this site and you daddies and the challenges and even these threads. Even if no one actually looks at my work, cause I certainly don't know, just being with you guys and gals makes me wanna push through to outside my comfort zone and keep trying, even if it frustrates me or makes me sad. If I fall back in, I do my best to leave it again, to try my hardest, all cause of you all.
I love you guys!

pick it up daddies, you have exactly 2 months to improve so that your work doesn't look less than 30 minutes tribunalable

>>4176426
*beating your bush*

>>4176441
Same. If not for DAD, I'd still draw only once every 3-4 months

is uploading multiple images frowned upon on dad? not sure if cba to resize everything and stitch together into single image.

>>4176462
not much, it's quite a regular occurrence, but if you spam like 10+ submissions in a single day it'd probably raise some eyebrows though, especially if they're small individual submissions that could've been easily stitched

whose is next birthday?

>>4176483
no more birthday challenges

>>4176483
Mine is in 2 days, actually.

>>4176483
Me!

>>4176486
Happy birthday!

If I submit something today will you crit me daddies?
I know roughly what is wrong, but I don't know how to fix it

Pic related, it's me while trying to figure out how to fix my drawing

>>4176490
post it in a discord crit channel and/or add in the description of your submission that you want a crit and maybe some kind perusing daddy will see it AND be willing AND able to crit

>>4176490
what this >>4176494 anon say
I trust you anon!

bananaaa, when's the tribunal?

Getting drunk as we speak, prepare for shit submissions and next generation bullying.

Nothing stops you from denouncing them in this thread. Speaking of, I think mathias has been submitting old work.

>>4176526
He has.

>>4176526
I think he's been finishing up old stuff, which is fine.

new challenge!
https://dad.gallery/challenges/101

Prestige: 3. Sure.

>>4176536
Cool challenge!
Afraid I can't participate since I don't know how to do landscapes though...

>>4176554
Never gonna learn if you don’t try

>>4176524
25th december

>>4176554
the site's purpose is to learn, stand up to the bullies nerd

dad - army bootcamp edition

>>4176554
It says you can also draw a room
Also, how do you expect to learn drawing landscapes if you don't draw them?
Hope you join friendo

>>4175916
What will a tribunal do? Judge art pieces or progress?

>>4176580
Judge submissions that break site/challenge rules/guidelines.

Low Effort = Less than 30 minute submissions (if that is the only submission the artist has submitted that day)
If found Guilty = Death (or token loss when they exist)

Cheating = Like uploading other people's work/old work
If found Guilty = Death Death Death

Incorrect Content Level = You said it was Safe but really there are NSFW bits so it's Questionable or Explicit
If found Guilty = Content Level gets corrected

Incorrect Challenge Submission = You didn't follow the Challenge Guidelines (like posting early in the New Year's Resolution challenge or submitting 5 minute random doodles for the Prestige 4 Mecha challenge)
If found Guilty = Submission invalidated for Challenge

>>4176594
a low effort case should gather all the artist's submissions of that day for review

>>4176594
There should be an "off topic" for people that submit work that isn't DAD related, like math equations, kanji or random photos

>>4176607
I dunno. That's why blogs exist. The purpose of dad is improvement by daily (or weekly) activity.

>>4176655
I think they were talking about a tribunal category for those submissions, not talking about allowing this content on dad

>>4176662
This

>>4176483
mine's today

>>4176673
happy birthday daddy!

>>4176483
Mine's next week.

>>4176536
I like this. It's far out of my comfort zone, and that's exciting.

why is the challenge badge so big? new update?

>>4176486
>>4176487
>>4176673
>>4176695
You should've made challenges

>>4176761
Nah, I'm good. Had a nice dinner with my parents and sister, going to see a friend next week. Hopefully I'm past needing this now.

>>4176761
I'm not that much of an attention whore

>>4176761
I'm ok with just a greeting

Is bestiality allowed?!!??

>>4177114

yes

>>4177114

no do not do it

>>4177114
woof woof

>>4177114
owo what's this

I am currently working on some image and database re-processing. Please be patient.

>>4177177

wtf why aren't you working on the tierlist

>>4177178

I believe in you tier:
everyone

>>4177180
when I make it, I'm going to tell everyone it was because of you

>>4177181

Thank you, but I can't take credit for your own hard work, or for the notion of the site itself. I'm merely the third torchbearer for an idea that I believe strongly in, nothing more.
Keep up the good work.

oh merciful christ i think i figured out the massive obstacle in my way
i can't oversee the image processing tonight (it's like 2 AM), but i'll perform and oversee it tomorrow
sorry for the delay

>>4176932
That's so dumb. No one cares about who made a challenge anyway

>>4177117
Alright I'll submit something today

>>4177276
is this golden kamuy

>>4177282
no it's a daddy

>>4177276
Stop posting pictures of me

>>4176526
Yeah I am posting old work that I have been working on. People also might've wondered if I reposted the hulder I did, but I fixed the major proportional issues after reviewing it.

Bessiebee, yes!

>>4177370
Yummy

>>4177370

Well at least you're a man for admitting it. But you're ranked down on the tierlist.

>>4177382

*do half of a tierlist*

How do you pronounce wacom and huion properly?

>>4177734
Wackom and Whoyon apparently
Though waycom sounds better imo

>>4177734
huion is chinese, consist of the word hui which is pronounced "h-whey" and on which is just "on"

Never hear anyone pronounce it correctly
in english though so who gives a fuck

I wish I had cute daughter to teach her how to draw and overcome my failure as an artiest.

>>4177792
Then get yourself a wife

>>4177771

How long did LAS and DED last?

>>4177831
lemme just dig up this extremely old calendar of LAS events

>>4177838
las2.esy.es SUURRGGEEE!!!

>>4177838
who of the current daddies has been around since the very start?

just curious to see the progress

>>4177838

So DED lasted 4 months.
LAS lasted 1 year and 8 months (9 if you count the DED period overlap).
So if DAD makes it to Christmas, banana beats the record.
Also this calendar makes it seem like nicnac made the DAD site. I thought they all started from scratch when banana hopped on.

>>4177853
these were the last week oners still alive during LAS (week oners are people that had been using LAS since the first week of its creation that had not yet been eliminated)
some users may have changed their names in DAD

>>4177853
banana :)

>>4177860
oofers

>>4177860

I was week 1, day 5.
I will always wear that as a badge of pride no matter how low or high I climb.

>>4177838
Oh was it Fluffable who was the last flawless, I thought it was Cath
Is Fluff still around?
>>4177853
I've been here since the start, here's one of my submissions from early 2016, you can see my current art on DAD site. Saucy btw

>>4177864
god, imagine being a week 2er from those times, zero recognition ;_;

>>4177771

> all these indefinite votes
Are you guys just insanely optimistic or do you really believe in DAD/banana that much?

>>4177853
Not the very, very start but I was here fairly early on on the first iteration of Las. I think I made two accounts on it, one called Huginn and another one that had something to do with Moose. Kiddo me lost her shit because I got thread header twice at the time. It was pretty dumb but I remember it fondly. I'm under KazooKD now. Pic related, some old stuff from that time I managed to find.

>>4177875
insane progress

>>4177853
>>4177859
and here are the day 1 people, the flawless
this pic was only made like 40 days in though so a bunch of other day 1ers had lost their streak or dropped out

>>4177880
I wonder where eldrick the redeemed is now

>>4177880
Santi and Saucy have been at it for a while, huh.

Seems like it truly works, thanks for not making the circle jerk so closed as it could have been by the way, I feel quite welcomed even though I'm a fresh face

not gonna tell who I am though, else the bullies will smell my emotional weakness

Whenever I open up a new canvas, my head is as blank with ideas as the white page. Any tip on unclogging the mind juice?

>>4177903

Motivate your work with a question.
> What am I trying to study?
> What should I draw to study that?
> What do I like to draw?
> What do I feel like drawing?
> What is the maximum number of grapes that could I shove up my ass in one sitting?

This should help you at least have an idea.

>>4177865
honestly not too bad, your new work looks a lot better but I kinda liked the charm and texture of your older pieces

>>4177890
I bet you're one of the beginners.

>>4177890
Tell me now or you'll be the first one to be tribunaled once that feature gets implemented by Banana.

>favourite dad stopped posting

What the hell even happened to the furry five? We need replacements ASAP.

>>4178003

> Wilbe isn't as active as he used to be, plus the only one on the list that's still a /beg/inner

heh

I drew today but no one noticed. AGAIN.
I've had enough of you guys, I'll show you what I'm capable of and you will beg for mercy as you cry "oh I wish I had mentioned that daddy".

After much deliberation, I've concluded there's enough space in my ass for about a tree fiddy of grapes in my ass.

>>4178034
*merrily skips you*

>>4178049

>>4178034

>>4178073

>>4177771
I think DAD can go beyond 4chan and become its own thing. There should be a way to donate to the site.
Or maybe a subscription for some silly badge.
I LOVE BADGES >:)

>>4178133

> donations
never
so long as i can pay for hosting myself, i refuse to have ads or donations
if DAD explodes in popularity in some way or another though i may change that policy (and I may no longer be qualified to run the site) but i think the majority of people enjoy the currently very intimate nature of this community of ~150 semi-active artists

i'm so sorry nirest

rip Nirest

>>4178149
>>4178146
This is what happens when you don't comment on daddies submissions

>drawing for mentions and not for your own self improvement

Daddies...

>>4178192
I want to receive mean comments from daddies so I get motivated to improve more.

>>4178192
Fuck off tier 1'er, I do whatever I want to.

>>4178158
F

Alright, so, laying down some ground rules.
Please do NOT do this.

I was doing some image processing and my job kept getting stuck, and I thought I had bugged it or something, but no, it's because some people submit very large images. Which, fine, yeah, its good from a learning and production standard to use large canvas. However...

THE ORIGINAL DIMENSIONS OF THIS IMAGE WAS 11632 x 6336. For a single figure drawing in the middle.
Please practice good submission etiquette and crop your images. Thank you. I will be adding a pixel count error based on the findings of my processing job, as to reject a certain threshold past which the uploader is at risk of stalling out.

>>4178213
who the fuck did that lmao

>>4178213
WEW lad

>>4178213
clown world

>>4178217

Not to speak ill of the dead, but stars one of the culprits. My job spent a full two minutes and twenty seconds resizing this formerly 12400 * 6700 image. This is why I have to manually watch over this running process in lieu of doing something that requires my full focus (coding / art).
This is somewhat rare, but please do not do this. Depending on how frequently this comes up in the future, I will add "very poor cropping" to the list of submission tribunal offenses (when its released, at least).
Do note, this individual is not the only person to have done this. So I'm just throwing it out there: please exercise good cropping etiquette. It doesn't matter that much if your submission is like 1920*1080, though, or something reasonable. Submit all the white space you want in that case.

>>4178213

>>4178269
>>4178297

what is this
what's happening

>>4178213
Is this the T-posing of daddies to establish their dominance?

>>4177232
Yo nana do you make these gifs? They're really nice

>>4178305

I really wish I was the one who made them.
They're made by a /co/ native named Kazerad who does an MSPA-esque interactive webcomic set in the Elder Scrolls world about a mostly incompetent Khajit who finds herself in wacky and awkward situations. He does plenty of these "video game-esque character gifs" and they're all really cute.
You had no idea how happy I was when I found out these existed, though. They're great.

>>4178309
>video game-esque character gifs
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I always thought they were supposed to resemble the sprites from Homestuck flashes?

>>4178325

That's what it's based on, yeah.
The dialogue is graphically structured similarly to some of the interactive portions of Homestuck from what I know (the webcomic itself even uses the [S] thing to denote sounds), but Kazerad does deviate from it a bit in his TES webcomic.
And while as far as my personal tastes made Homestuck fairly unpalatable, Prequel has been really solid, actually.

to the person who was going to make a "potential to make it" tier list
please do
i want to know if people believe in me

>>4178437
what would making it even mean, I'm sure there are plenty of daddies who aren't aspiring to become professionals or break into an industry, daddies who might have already made it on their own journey just by being happy with their own work

>>4178227
>>4178244

How many gigabytes do your project files take up if you work on these kinds of resolutions? I work on 4K resolution before I export, and that still feels like a lot of file space, should I be using higher?

A sketch I be workin on. I like games for to play.

>>4178437
Wasn’t it supposed to be potential in general not just “gmi” potential?
There’s a difference between having the potential to just improve currently and being able to make it professionally.

>>4178158
I'm shy so I usually only give compliments in the thread, maybe I should try be better about that.

>>4178146
>>4178149
>>4178158
Don't worry dads, I drew yesterday and just forgot to post. That's fine and being eliminated is my own fault. I get plenty of comments and feel very appreciated by the community, it must be someone else that feels lonely.

I will never make it daddies, it's over

>>4178758
Why daddy? What's wrong?

>>4178758
I believe in you!
You will make it daddy, never give up!

>>4178758
Do what really makes you happy

>>4178763
I keep drawing shit I'm not happy with, which I'm too insecure to post

>>4178784
then go weekly, like me.

>>4178785

I mean, if not counting the daily meltdowns, this is a pretty decent way to force someone like me to learn to draw, as I will do it for hours fueled by the anxiety alone. I do enjoy it, in some weird way.

>>4178309
We should donate to banana via commissioning more of these gifs
I wanna see one where adine is getting railed offscreen and it's just hear thumping back and forth with aheago

*picks teeth with bone of baby daddy*

D:

How do people like bunnyburger, tekkyJ, and grabstien etc somehow find the will to draw everyday but improve very very very very very little? I'm jealous of their will to keep going while I have a serious self defeatist attitude.

How do they do it?

>>4178878

this is some thinly veiled bullying
i'm going to have to take you to the tribunal anon

>>4178878
That might be the biggest passive-aggressive backhand I've seen all month, nicely done.

>>4178878
Hurt the cute bunny one more time and I'll kick your teeth in.

Who are the most daring daddies?

>>4178888
dare

>>4178888
Dare

>>4178889
who?
>>4178888
Checked

Stop bullying /begs/ who are grinding fundies instead of polishing turds.
I do wish some of them would do more rendered work once in a while but it’s incredibly telling how many untrained eyes are here based on how people think rendered work = automatically “good work”.

>>4178891
check dad.gallery

>>4178887
>>4178884
>>4178883

I'm serious. I don't mean to bully any of them. It seems the "tier 1" people have a lot of stamina and drive while the "upper tier" dads have a lower streak/drop out often. I want what they have in terms of energy.

i can't believe inktober is nearly over

>>4178878
one must imagine sisyphus happy

desu, I really respect those type of people. the people who get really good fast are not as inspiring.

>>4178894

That's not stamina.
The whole pathos of DAD is to help you develop a habit until you don't need it anymore.
Upper-tier DADs don't consistently post, because at that point, they'll practice however much they need on their own time without the structure of the site, or they're too busy because they're sometimes taking commissions, taking supplementary classes, or have reached a level they're satisfied with (hobbyist) and have moved on. When people meet a certain threshold, or maintain good drawing habits, they tend to advance beyond the site.

>>4178892

Alright, so let's ask a different question.
The following is the latest list of tier 1s:

tier 1:
the1banana xiaoandtell Gronko QuattroHS burnit Mango ulsanloos EerieAnesthetist Negakona Herodotus StarLab Ravioli Vastian zamish awful Seal Alex Herodotus sola Varsils Beretboy Zeke vovi psiekier EngeeEmI psiekier Eddin rhomphy koki Hermit Beanhead guespiere Notosh Valley TEETHLIKEGODSSHOESHINE AlmostGoodAtAnatomy bunnyburger tmart11 Grabstein huhnchenz

Assuming each one of them has an idea of what they want to do to "make it", who here actually has the potential to do so?

>>4178893
It's a pun. Dare means who in japanese.

>>4178894
engrave the habit of drawing everyday in your soul and build a well trained sense of discipline
discipline is a skill that can be honed and will carry you through the fickleness of motivation.

>>4178901
oh nicely done

>>4178897
>they tend to advance beyond the site.

maybe that shouldn't be a thing. I think DAD is the closest ic has to what conceptart forums meant to people. you had a ton of pros and highly skilled artists there that would post and critique long after they made it.

>>4178894
It’s because higher tiers spend more time on their submissions?
Lower tiers might spend 30-60min on a gesture drawing session which is their submission for the day. Higher tiers might spend 2hours+ on something rendered or else they’d just be submitting sketches or wips which they might not want to do.
I think tier 1 just needs to increase their intensity of what they’re studying to improve more. Again, just assuming they’re only spending an hour on gestures, they should then spend another 3+ hours on a rendered model study afterwards if they really want to improve more.

>>4178892
It's because all they have to do is just draw. The site is not called improve at art daily.

>>4178900
zeke

>>4178906

I agree, but unfortunately, it has to be the experienced users who step up and maintain a presence.

it's time

>>4178900
banana and everyone else under 150 submissions.

>>4178918
Under? Do you mean over? And why banana?

>>4178913
Why zeke?

>>4178907
>It’s because higher tiers spend more time on their submissions?

Sure but they still manage to post something everyday. Even if it's a sketch on a napkin.

>>4178915
*nervous laugh*

>>4178900
I see people who are better than me in tier 1. But anon put me in tier 2. What a shame.

Also I see a small but definite progress in their works and I do not see progress in my work at all.

>>4178963
I feel like there’s certain people in tier 2 from that list that are like 2.5 or something. Or there should have been more people in tier 2 put in tier 3 and more people moved to tier 4.
I don’t feel comfortable reworking that list because I was put in tier 2 so I might just be a tad delusional.

the1banana: he's busy with the site and he hasn't gotten serious yet after his change in mindset. I'd say no but time will tell.
xiaoandtell: I can tell he's been drawing for a while but it seems he doesn't really care about it. Probably no.
Gronko: Not enough submissions to tell, but he doesn't look new. Probably has potential.
QuattroHS: He had some nice hands in his fist submission but his copies look pretty bad. Probably, can't tell.
burnit: Looks new but has nice dynamism. Probably will if he doesn't stray.
ulsanloos: Doesn't look that new but can probably advance without much trouble.
EerieAnesthetist: There's something about the lines that tells me that there's potential.
Negakona: I think he has potential, but also has the potential to get stuck. Time will tell.
Herodotus: Time will tell but I lean toward the no.
StarLab: For sure, if he focuses on the right things.
Ravioli: I think he can do it.
Vastian: Not saying you can't advance but I lean toward no.
zamish: Same.

I started to feel bad I'll stop here.

oof

did any poster go from /beg/ to decent since las was a thing?

Can we have a tierlist for only tier 1s

>>4179009
saucy, vusta, and sharkvore

>>4179024
sharkvore's an oldie?

>Completely ran out of ideas for what to draw for some reason even though I haven't had this problem before

How frustrating. I want to draw something, but I also don't want to just make random doodles.

>>4179024
sharvore's not beg?

>>4178992
>I started to feel bad I'll stop here.
Continue or your streak will die in her sleep tonight

>>4178992

I like this honesty.
I will say that running the site and needing to get certain core features up and deployed has been time-consuming, but beyond that, when it comes right down to it, I really need to work harder with regard to everything.

>>4179043
please leave her alone, she's innocent!

>>4179043
Too bad. I already posted.

>>4178992
Vastian's drawings are coming along nicely, it's his paintings that need work.

I would much rather be bullied than not get feedback, anon. That is the worst form of bullying.

>>4179444
I think everyone that wants feedback should ask for it instead of waiting for it to come. You know how it goes. Give names.

>>4179447
the10thbanana

>>4179470
Where are the other 8?

>>4179488
they all made it, and promptly left

tier 2:
ThomasAto nyroc Fuggit dare 7b7a2f AutoReiv Creatue Paganini retard Bessiebee Choob dranandrom konsui 10A Nirest CGraphite silvemis sharkvore oneironaut Whizzard MysticLog Cath tabascoshrimp gottagitgud Pawn

Now that we listed the potential of some of the tier 1's, what about the tier 2's?

>>4179492
oneironaut has 0 potential. I think that's clear.

>>4179494

Agreed. Anyone who throws such a thorough shitfit and attempts to just drag everyone else through the mud just because they got a middling reception on a tier list is devoid of potential.

Don't worry, bud, you're tier 5.

replace talent with skill so it hurts more next time

talent is default, can't change it

>>4179536
>>4179492
wait, autoreiv and tabascoshrimp are t2? who tf made this list.

>>4179541
Talent should hurt more because you can't change it. Once talentless, always talentless.

Why are Daddies so mean to each other

we need a JMGN tier

>had no streak when the tier list was posted and didnt get ranked
nice

>>4179545
personally, even if it stings a bit sometimes, I find all of this stuff incredibly motivating

>>4179551
>stings a bit
>stings
>a bit
We need the bullies to bully even harder.

>>4179536
This seems a bit arbitrary... I like silvemis’s original stuff, and retard is copying anime girls half the time?

nobody in this thread will ever know my true daddy identity, therefore I'm safe from the bullying, checkmate

>>4179559
Sometimes I get worried about people figuring out who I am by the way I write.

>>4179561
shut the fuck up kazoo

>>4179558

It takes a lot of talent to copy anime girls.

I still don't understand what this DAD thing is and I've been a lurker of /ic/ for like 2 years, just never got interested on this, what should I know? what is this? what should I do? Do I have to participate? Can I enter even being beg? waocwo awa wa w aw cowo cowac oawc cow

>>4179545
hurting others boosts their egos

how do i kill my ego. I think it's holding me back.

>>4179583
>what should I know? what is this?
Drawing every day is just... drawing, something, each and every day. The website is just a tool to hold you accountable to yourself (because you can't lie to the clock).

> what should I do?
Draw something, every day.
If you want to post to the website linked in the OP you can. It might motivate you to draw again tomorrow, and the next day.

>Do I have to participate?
Yes, or we'll tell the art police.

>Can I enter even being beg?
Yes

whoa what awesome anon
can you separate the tiers for tier 1? like, tiers 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5?

>>4179621
Don't feed it.

>>4179627
Is it only drawings or are all forms of art allowed?
What about animations? 3D models/sculpts?

>>4179634
Maybe later

>>4179562
What the fuck man. That wasn't me.

>>4179644

>>4179651
CAN THE REAL KAZOO PLEASE STAND UP

i debated on whether not i should post or tell you this but fuck it, i'll do it anonymously here
kazoo, if you're in this thread, you are legitimately the first person i've developed even a faint amount of romantic interest in
that being said, i'm aware you're in a relationship. just wanted to express that you're a kind and delightful person, and that i love your work. i hope your journey in life and art is fulfilling.

>>4179655
I wish a girl would become romantically interested in me, it's always guys.

>>4179668
its because guys are the ones who think with their dicks, girls think with their wallets

guys how do i get out of being such an average tier 2'er.

>>4179642
Just make art

>>4179673

wait hold on, fuck off with that right now
the reason i like kazoo is because of who she is; i've literally never met her in person or seen her face before
be it on the discords, the site or even in the threads, she's always been, without exception, someone with a really good heart.

>>4179674
Give name and I'll give you personalized advice.

>girls think with their wallets
no, I think with my gains

>>4179676
i didn't even reply to you????

kringle
why

>>4179680

i mean, mate, claiming that guys think with their dicks and girls thinking with their wallets is pretty cynical and reductive

I didn't give you permission to draw me kringle.

>>4179704
n-no

>>4179682
I like that design the best, the middle woman reminds me of a character in some hip middle school biology text book circa 2004. I like the idea of the guy on the left but he seems a bit TOO squished.

>>4179708
desu i also like jerrys design best, the chick in the middle is 100% just there to be big and hot so your 100% on the money with that. also yeah fat guy is kinda too squish, but i was willing to go through with it for the payoff of him being so stupidly small compared to everyone else.

ty for your feedback! ill keep it in mind for my next set of character designs ^u^

when's the next kringle crit stream ? :(

>>4179627
THANKS A LOT
I draw daily but the way the posts are formatted made me think it was some kind of weekly contest or something by the likes of it

I love drawing but lately I've just been feeling awful about art. The satisfaction I get out of making a piece I am happy with is so fleeting, sometimes I wonder what's even the point of it. I feel so burdened by the fact my art will never be good enough.

>>4179536
>Lots of talent
T-thanks

>>4179873
There are "challenges" as a feature of the DaD website. You don't have to do them, but they might offer ideas when your motivation reserves are running low

Why is it when I play with a gamepad for less than 20 minutes my arms stiffen up in pain? Should I get checked out for this? It could be something just waiting to screw me over in the future for drawing.

>>4179944
You’re probably just unconsciously in a weird position. Does it happen when you draw? If not then it’s probably just the position of your shoulders/neck?

>>4179944
Change your position

>>4179965
No it doesn't happen after I draw. It could be the position I'm in like you say or that I'm putting too much stress on pressing buttons. Or it could be I'm no longer used to playing with gamepads.

>>4179984
Even a slightly wrong posture when repeated can really fuck you up... I’d just try to adjust your seating/posture when gaming.
If it still hurts or starts to effect your drawing then maybe you might want to see a doc, but more than likely you’re probably just tensing some muscles weirdly.

>>4179629
>Just Missing soul/needs to grasp a few more things
>7b7a2f
Very valuable opinion for me, thanks! I noticed that all my works are technical/lifeless/soulless. I am not sure how to fix this and that bothers me. But I have some ideas tho. If you have any advice, I would love to hear it.

>>4179536
>Not very talented
This is the last thing that bothers me. I like to think that my current level is what I have achieved myself. With help of other dads of course.

>multiple people do tier 2s
>tier 1 not even half done
that's just rude

After having seen it for a bit I like the activity feed on the site front page, but I still somewhat miss the thumbnail of the most recent image. Sometimes I would see something interesting when I wasn't particularly planning on browsing submissions at the moment.

>>4180107
I agree with this, the thumbnail for me was how I checked out a lot of artwork from daddies I probably wouldn't have otherwise looked for.

>>4180110
It's quite the opposite for me, actually, I've found myself looking at art of daddies I never have because I don't recognize a name or am just curious.
I do miss the image coming up, though. I think both an activity feed and an image of most recent would be ideal.

>Skipped on comments
>Skipped on lists of people with potential
>Skipped on lists of people with skill, or lack of it
>Skipped on absolutely everything, every time

I-it's okay, I-I do this for my own enjoyment, h-haha, getting noticed is unimportant haha

>>4180168
feng zhu always says don't do art so you can show it off on social media for likes etc.

this is the same shit, while it's really nice to receive comments about your work(especially critiques and praise). at the end of the day it's really just ego masturbation, you're probably less likely to make it if you constantly get showered with affection

>>4180172
Thank you for the nice words daddy

>>4180168
That means you're so average that you're unnoticeable. At least you're not a scrub.

>>4180168
sometimes anons critique everyone who posts that day, are you a baby daddy or a weekly poster or something?

>>4180168
you're in the very boring category of not being good enough to be noticed but also not being bad enough to be noticed

It's a good thing, it means you're not /beg/ atleast

>>4180168
>literally every single dad has appeared on at least one bully/crit/tier list in the last year
Who the F U C K are you?

>>4180027
Tier 1s just need to draw more. Tier 2s are the ones that need the most help.

>>4180168
Even crit streams? Are you a weekly? 51ip and kringle have hit wednesday saturday sunday and monday, which day do you submit?

the only explanation is that he is a babby daddy.

Food shouldn't complain.

fresh daddies are so yummy

*licks lips*

>>4180247
>Tier 2s are the ones that need the most help.
What about us tier 3s? Nobody even bullied us

>>4180306
You guys are on your own :)

>>4180306
*Most* of you guys have found your way. You don't need much help.

banannaaaaaaa

tier 3 is the worst tier, you know you're good but you're not good enough to impress anyone

>>4180306
Tier 3 is like being in the middle of a maze. we're lost as fuck

>>4180369
I feel the same at tier 2.
It’s just like being tier 3 but more mediocre then.

I says we need monthly tierlists

>>4180393
But who will make them

>>4180393
I say that giving substantial feedback and judging your peers so methodically is much harder than being on the receiving end, there's a good reason most promises to give a new tier list soon end in ghosting.

>>4180393
MONTHLY RATING CHARTS!
ELO SYSTEM!

I'm tired of tierlisters that don't post their own work.

>>4180393
Making one after every season would be more reasonable. Also it doesn't make sense to make one every month when the list wouldn't change much, if at all.

>>4180393
Honestly if there was some sort of website integration for a monthly tierlist system that you could opt in or out of that would be kind of cool. In theory anyway.
But like the other anon mentioned, looking critically at others’ work is easier said than done.

>>4180366
What about tier 4 and 5

>>4180393
how about weekly tierlists!

>>4180407
I'm tired

People would burn me at the stake if they knew I was the one making tier lists.

>>4180447
I bet it's the anime usersss

>>4180447
now I need to know

>>4180447
Oh everyone assumes anyone rating other people is on that Dunning Kruger mountain.
But people getting upset are also near that mountain. Or else are outside of the mountain and think people are getting bullied overly much.

You're always curious how you're perceived by others, though. I think that's an innate human trait.

>>4180450
I think I'm a bit biased toward anime.

>>4180447
Can you put me on the tierlist? I wasn't in the newest one and I feel in need of a reality check. I am Nessie

>>4180457
Tier 4, better than 95% of daddies.

How about a soul vs soulless tier

>>4180457
Soul aside, I think you're a low 3, but if I had to do the list again I'd rearrange all the tiers.

>>4180464
Do it.

>>4180465
I'll do another in January if nobody else does so you've got until then to prove your worth.

Some of you guys are alright
don't submit to las tomorrow

>>4180507
The current tier list seems wierd to me because it has j in tier 3

>>4180523
this is dumb, if you're a /beg/ but you have an art related job then you skip straight into professional tier

>>4180523
can you even put anyone into the professional tier?

>>4180487
Oh, don't get me wrong. I think you're pretty strong in areas that other daddies aren't, mainly shape design.
I see there have been some issues with figures you've been trying to iron out, but at the level you're at, to answer your question I think what you need to do (and other daddies in your tier) is to think about what your end goal really is so you can be more focused with your practice. I don't want to resort to giving generic "advice" like study anatomy because that doesn't help anyone but it's hard for me to tell you what to exactly do since it's so stylized. Sorry if I was unhelpful.

>submit shit now when the tier lists are in the works
>submit polished turds later to rise up the tier lists

absolutely devilish

I wish we could categorize our gallery so studies are separate from challenge drawings/rendered work.

>>4180533
dad.gallery is not a gallery

>>4180515
I misplaced j because I was looking at his older more finished looking work, which tends to be somehow worse than the rest. He's been making some real gains recently. He's def a 4.
