/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Took long enough.

One day I'll contribute to OC thread

Some day I will have my "Youmu-alternate-clothes" drawings complete. Until then, I'm sorry X(

I made a myon.

I made a myon.

>>10431061

It...looks like sperm.

(I'm sorry)

>>10431002

Out

>>10431061
I just shot a few million of those not too long ago.

>>10431091
wow wtf dude...

>>10431061

What an unfortunate shape for it to take

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EP5M5AsFA

I'll post something when I get back from uni.

So uhm taking some advice I went a bit more AMBITIOUS and did this the other night, comments would be appreciated.

>>10431188
nice koishi

>>10431188
Looks awful. Her face is ugly. You fucked up the roses. I think an epileptic chimp could do better.

Looks nice anon. I'm jelly of your skill

>>10431181
That's pretty mean.

>>10431188
A definite A for effort. The rose vines and heart look better than the Koishi though.

>>10431188
Looks nice enough style-wise, but your anatomy is shit, you really need to work on it. Also her left arm's sleeve looks really flat.
Sorry if this is harsh.

>>10431188
The face looks odd, but it's nice overall.
Would consider saving and putting into my Koishi folder if coloured

does this count as oc? first time i tried to make a mob model for minecraft.

i'm no good at the code so she's not much different from an old version of the zombie, just walking up to you and attacking you through collision.

>>10429974
You have a really nice style, do you have an art page/gallery/blog somewhere?

>>10431319
>harsh

No, not really this is what I was looking for, thanks a lot bro, will take all the tips in account!

>>10431325
That looks really good. Is it available for download?

>>10431428
That looks fantastic so far, did you do the lines free hand?

I've been thinking about making a VN that's loosely based off of various fairytales/princess stories since 2010. They'd all be transposed into a modern setting, and would lose the magic. Plus there'd only be one Prince, which is you.
Here are some quick pictures of the girls, I have a few more designed besides the ones here. Their modern stories are also figured out for the most part, just not formally written out.

Would anyone be interested in something like this? Or should I just ditch it for good?

>>10431322
Oh by the way, why did you give her kneesocks and hat these lightingspots? It makes them look like they are made out of leather

>>10431406
i can upload it.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/62600417/rno_1.4.7.zip

it's a modloader mod, so it works with just dumping it into mods folder. should work with forge too.

no idea about compatibility, but i'm guessing if there's another mod that uses the same ids (31 for enemy cirno, 32 for friendly cirno) it'll conflict.

you can lead the friendly version around with sugar.

>>10431453
>Rapunzel
>Short hair
0/10 would not play.

>>10431506
What is a braid you can't see?

>>10431506
Also Beauty was a rich bitch, why would she be an indebted worker?

>>10431507
>you can lead the friendly version around with sugar.
That's really cute Anon.

>>10431510
He lost his fortune and became indebted to the Beast, she was only rich again when she goes back with the beast. I made the chart quickly/just came up with some descriptors, so everything is subject to change.

>>10431506
It's a braid.

>>10431526
Back to the beast*

>>10431249
Are you going to finish coloring it?

>>10431428
It looks good, but is it just me or are the hips like, really fucking wide.

>>10431553
It's not just you.

>>10429974

>>10431428
Hey mags, what are your pen settings? those lines are very clean

An incomplete version sample page from the mini-comic I finished today. (Don't want it to spread around too much...)

>>10429974
Like the other anon already mention, you have a nice style. I would love to see more from you.
>>10431553
You make it sound like that's not the main point of the drawing and not completely intentional.

>>10429974
Very nice indeed. Sketchy, edgy styles always have a certain special touch to them.
>>10431188
Not really into your style, but that's just me. Anon said about everything you should work on.
>>10431428
Amazing. Clean lines, superb proportions and delicious legs. Coloured version please.

Did some stuff again, but failed. I really need a scanner, for I don't want to use my tablet for such drawings. I really suck at the tablet.

>>10431702
Don't give up. man! A digital tablet is a really handy tool once you get hang of it!

>>10431428
Man, how does one make such clean lineart?
I can't lineart for shit.

>>10431453
It'd be cool if you make it a dating sim

>>10431428
Exaggerated proportions are nothing but mindless fanservice, it makes me sick. Feel free to hate.

>>10431646
>>10431578
>>10431702
Thanks.

I don't update it very often at all, though.

>>10431453
I like this, please don't give up on it. I already have a favorite girl.

>>10431752

>>10431453
With text only it seems pretty lame but after taking a look at that chart it seems very interesting and cool, allthough it reminds me a bit to KS

>>10431880
Because that's the only VN you've ever read, right?

>>10431453
I was wondering, what would be a good VN program for a beginner with no real programming skill, novelty?

I essentially want to drop in all my text and a bunch of shoddy/placeholder images so that I can coax someone into sprucing everything up later.

>>10431880
It has nothing to do with KS. VNs follow this patterns very often. You must have some mental issues.

>>10431892
I remember reading about a program called Ren'Py on some forum. It probably is shit, but you could try it out.

>>10431892
Ren'py.

>>10431917
>>10431918
Woah.

>>10431917
>>10431918
Trying to summon uncle Mugen, guys?

>>10431917
>>10431918

Thanks Ren'py mind. I'll look into it.

>>10431930
Get the fuck out.

>>10431548
Eventually. I have a lot of other pictures I need to get finished. I just wanted to do a quick little sketch for now to cool my head.

>>10431901
>>10431890
Actuallly I never read KS, this concept just reminded me to it because almost all of the girls got a mental disability.
Only VN I ever read was Ever17
Stop getting so defensive, I didn't even say that as a bad thing

>>10431325
added an eirin, and made the friendly ones hide in the houses during the night, like the villagers. same link as >>10431507

>>10432086
That's adorable Anon.

Keep up the good work.

>>10432057
Pointing out when someone says something stupid isn't "defensive".

Does a MTG block based on touhou count as original content?

Drawing Flan-chan is fun because she is the best Touhou.

>>10432417
Deeds nipples, more pussy-detail and pubic hair.

>>10432417
Needs nipples, more pussy-detail and pubic hair.

>>10432431
If you say so.

>>10432279
Don't post images that aren't OC. This is not /a/, so don't post reaction images at all.

>>10432449
Wow, very beautiful! Good work!

>>10432311
I like it.

>>10431751
It would be, the only non-dateable characters would be ones based off of non-romantic stories (Jack & the Beanstalk, Hansel & Gretel, etc.). You could go after any girl where the prince and princess live "happily ever after".
All the girls would have a bad ending where they weren't chosen.

>>10431852
Wow you made her look adorable, thankyou! I love this.
She's my favorite too.
I'll try to at least get a demo out, now that I know there's some interest.

>>10431880
>>10432057
Sleeping Beauty and Princess&the Pea would go well in KS, maybe Rapunzel too. Most of the girls aren't disabled. just fill certain roles/archetypes commonly found in anime (plus some extras since only having archetypes is boring). If you want to associate them with one another then feel free. Since it'd be made originally in English, most people would associate them anyways just because of that.

>>10432730
Why don't you make it a VN? These fairy tale characters have moer than enough material for you to create an intricate and interesting plot.

>>10429974
Nice work but only fake suspenders would take the shape of the breast like that. I like to think Mokou's choice in suspenders is practical rather than cosmetic.

>>10431061
I like how /cgl/ claims it doesn't look like sperm at all when /jp/ is quite certain of it's true form.

>>10432742
>/cgl/ claims it doesn't look like sperm at all
Huh? Nobody said it didn't.

>>10431453
I like pea hime

https://soundcloud.com/ganjameistemilky-holmes-lovely-girls

Remix of the Milky Holmes S2 ED. Basslines are fun.

I just found that on pixiv

Maybe it help someone else

>>10432734
I was thinking a simulation would suit it best. Since there are so many characters (fairy tales provide a lot of options) having a good amount of them unlockable.
It's still in the planning stages though so it can go either way! I can't program the statistics, and it'd mostly be about retelling the stories (and all of them are romantic, so it'd fall under the dating genre), so a VN would work just as well for it.

I have yet to come up with a good central plot. Up until now I've mostly been thinking of the characters and individual routes (which are still pretty loose). Any suggestions are more than welcome though.

>>10432851
First, remember the golden rule of any /jp/ project. Take it easy. Make it simple. Seriously, don't try any too funny ideas. It might end up too hard and you'll give up on the project.

>>10432730
You should figure out a way to work in the girl from Rumpelstiltskin

>>10432449
Sweet! Please draw Ran! For her bigger titts, ok?

>>10432816
thank you anon

also, someone knows any way to practice poses?
not the generic ones, I want dramatic poses with dramatic angles

>>10432896
I've heard that posable figures make for great reference material.

>>10432896
http://www.posemaniacs.com/thirtysond
Just pick a time limit and start drawing.

>>10432896
Use manga, movies and classic paintings. its the best way.
I swear!

>>10432856
K, I'll try to just make it a Ren'py VN for now.
Which fairy tales would you guys like to see most in the demo?

>>10432877
I'll try and figure something out for her, I'll post it here when I do, provided the thread is still up.

>>10432796
Thanks!

>>10433095
Little Red Riding hood. She could be a kemonomimi-ed girl.

>>10433095
>Which fairy tales would you guys like to see
I never saw a shitstorm about this.

>>10433095
Snow white is da cutest, so her. I don't like Rapunzel because she reminds me of that Anzu cunt, but she seems popular, so you should put her in too.

>>10433095
Beauty and the beast sounds interesting, though it may be a bit difficult massage her story into a contemporary setting.

>>10432460
I drew that.

>>10433095
pea hime! or another.
...can i choose mokou?

>>10432449
Very nice.

>>10432449

>>10432449

>>10433208
No, you didn't.

>>10433118
Is this a good kemonomimi design for her?

>>10433186
>>10433195
>>10433233
So Snow White, Rapunzel, Beauty&the Beast, and Pea-hime so far?
(Sorry, no Mokou!)

>>10433195
I was thinking something like this for their story:
She's working at MC's dad's company, where MC was forced to work by his dad, when his mom/stepmom got the great idea to have him help out (the witch's curse). He thinks it's embarrassing, being the son of a wealthy family. He chooses to be the mascot (the beast) so no one will recognize him. Beauty starts working there too after her dad did something at the store, and couldn't pay them back. She's also his senpai at school, but she doesn't know it.

>>10433466
Yea, looks adorable. Go for reverse trap.

>>10433466
It seems kinda weird for the magic to be removed yet for red to have cat ears that aren't just attached to the red cap.

Does she have 4 ears or 2?

>>10433095
Gerda, that little girl from the Snow Queen, would be very nice. She's one of those rare heroines who actively save their love interest, plus she does it by turning her breath into an army of angels and leading a crusade against the snow bees with her steam-powered divine legions. Her breath literally solidifies into a horde of angels, I can't stress this enough. She'd be a textbook goody-two-shoes class president type, I suppose.

That one girl who marries Tam Lin was great too, since she goes toe to toe with a fairy queen and wins (while Tam Lin himself is not only useless, but actively malicious in some variants - his aim is to save his own neck by substituting his child as the fairy tithe). But Tam Lin is more of a legend than a fairytale so I guess it's out.

>>10433501
Rape and NTR with Gerda!

>>10433467
Reverse trap it is

>>10433486
Yeah, she'll just wear them for one of game's CGs then. In which case she'll have 4, 2 real, 2 fake.

>>10433501
I haven't read either of those before, just read the Snow Queen and it's really sweet! There are some points that would be hard to put into a modern setting, but the main problem would probably be point of view. Since you're the MC, either she'd probably have to tell the story to you after saving you. Goody-two-shoes class president, childhood friend, love-conquers-all type girl. The world has become negative and jaded, and has changed her love as well, when he's taken away by a relative to live with her in a far-away city. I have no idea what the angel breath would turn into, though.

I'd have to read Tam Lin before figuring anything out with that, it's still in the planning stages so it could include folklore or legends if the project were to grow big enough (like >>10432856 said, I shouldn't make it too hard initially.)
If it were added in, the girl could be someone he met while at the Snow Queen's castle? We'd have to leave out him having a kid until after the story though.

I think the MC from Saya no Uta got some of the troll mirror in his eye though

>>10433512
No. If it were an eroge, their route would end with consensual sex in the missionary position on their Wedding night.

>>10432877
Thinking about working in stories now.. I can see her having a story kind of like the MC from Aku no Hana. With blackmail and tight situations.

>>10431639
That looks great, are you going to sell it when you're done?

>>10431061
I tried to make it less spermy this time.

>>10434042
That looks really spermy.

>>10434042
Much better

>>10434042
It looks like a whole spray of jizz now, sailing artistically through the air

still better though.

>>10431061
Wow thats a really big sperm

>>10431061
>>10434042

>>10434042

You know, I think it would've been better if you made the "head" more circular than bulb like, instead of making the head smaller.

>>10432750
Wow, this is the second time in the past two days that I was sure something happened on 4chan but the archives have proved me completely wrong...

I suspect a conspiracy.

I've been bullied by another board. they didn't complimented with me enough for the drawing I did ! I've spent more than two hours (not consecutive) on that! its a lot of effort! and it was months that I didn't draw anything!
...you're always here for me, /jp/...you're my best friend. thanks.

>>10434042
how are you doing these anyway?

>>10435558
It's super simple, just cut out of two layers of fleece the shape plus 3/8 inch seam allowance, then sew with your basic straight stitch around the edge leaving maybe 6 inches open. Turn it inside out, then stuff fiberfill into it and whip stitch the opening closed.

how do i smooth

>>10435549
Shut the fuck up.

>>10435970
I've been watching this thread waiting for someone to say that, took you long enough. Almost did it myself.

Catch it easy!

>>10431442
Yes, I do it free hand. I think vectors lack 'oomph' when it comes to linework.
>>10431580
I didn't really use this tool to line until recently, but I do like it. http://puu.sh/1VWWh
>>10431750
By wasting several hours of your NEET life...

>>10436486
Have you ever thought of doing a doujin or something? you guys of the drawfag club are pretty good, but just doing a pretty pic after another is kind of a waste if you ask me.

>>10436655
Why would it be a waste? That doesn't make any sense. It has as much value as some random doujinshi.

>>10436267
Nue kinda looks like a dude.

>>10436486
That's some retarded looking hips.

>>10436486
Yeah, I tried using vector lines seriously for the first time and it came out well enough after coloring, but I still had to touch them up quite a bit freehand to get them looking alright..

I drew a bunch of stuff today out of boredom, in class. I was feeling pretty good about it until I came by here.

Now I'm just depressed for ever thinking I could draw.

>>10432449
More please!
I like your draw-style and it looks very sexy.

>>10437380
Don't be such a pussyassnigger

>>10437475

If I made an OEL eroge with a Japanese setting, do you think it would bother people much?

And I don't mean story-based game with some ero.

Would it be too weeaboo?

>>10442130
>And I don't mean story-based game with some ero.
What, you just mean an outright eroge with no purpose? Depends on the quality of the ero and the gameplay of the game.

>>10442130
I don't think the intended audience would mind all that much.

>>10441665
Is that Kratos?

>>10442130
>Would it be too weeaboo?
Yes.

>>10442264
Not if it openly mocked Japan.

The cover content is embarrassing. But I couldn't think of anything else to write.

>>10442190
Well, an eroge has got a pretty concrete purpose, doesn't it.

>>10442195
Bu-but I want /jp/ to like it, too!

>>10442264
;_;

>>10442273
I don't really see how I could fit satire without compromising the atmosphere I'm aiming for.

>>10442296
It's probably shit anyway.

>>10442130
>OEL eroge with a Japanese setting,
If that isn't weeaboo enough I don't know what is.

I hope it has decent art at least, the setting is already ruining it a lot.
Unless you've lived in japan long enough to actually be able to portray it properly.

I can't draw shit on my tablet so have some legless Futo on paper taken by phone camera

>>10442296
>I don't really see how I could fit satire without compromising the atmosphere I'm aiming for.

Make all the characters super stereotyped subcultures.
Tanned makeupped Gal
Super edgy gothic lolita
Insane harajuku(?) type covered in shit that would make a raver puke
Some shitty lazy fujoshi piece of trash who makes you cosplay (maybe as some super girly guy, maybe with her dressed up as a guy too, maybe with her behind you)
Some sort of slutty loli schoolgirl prostitute

>>10442396
That doesn't sound particularly funny or interesting.

>>10442415
Please regale me with tales of the concepts that will be implemented in this new and innovative, plotless nukige about boffing girls in Japan that you came up with, then.

>>10442455
Oh boy, you managed to fit both completely missing the point and "don't say bad things about it if you can't do better" in one post!

>>10442455
I never said it's going to be new or innovative.

In fact, it's going to be utterly derivative.

Aren't you projecting a little too hard?

>>10442470
Well then yeah, it'll be weeaboo and shit. Don't bother.

>>10442386
Aside from the hands, I think it is okay.

Is there any drawfag here willing to take a request?
Anyway, I'm requesting cute Arcueid doing cute thing.

>>10442370

moar

that's not nearly enough from you

>>10432086
i forgot to mention it before, i added a sakuya to this thing.

also made 2 more characters, but they're not really /jp/ related so yeah.

>>10443111
Those are extremely well done man, good job.

>>10443111
Do you have a site or something where I can follow development?

>>10443111
>Pram

>>10443111
>>10443252
I'd like to know this aswell!

also, texting bird.

>>10443252
>>10443433
nope, no site, i just posted them here.

i only started doing this few days ago, cirno was my first attempt to make a 3d model, and something for minecraft that wasn't a regular block-based structure or custom skin for player character.

though to be honest, the program i used (Techne) makes it super easy to make those models, making stuff out of cubes with 11 parameters (14 if you count the rotations) is far easier than real 3d modeling.

i doubt i could make a real 3d model without months/years of practice.

>>10442584
I doubt this is what you had in mind... but I made it for you anyways.

>>10443532
Cool/cute. oc threads need more non2hu stuff.

Music For You~

>>10444511
They lyrics and melody sounds like it'd be fitting if a girl sang this instead.

>>10444511
It sucks. You sure got some guts to even consider doing that.

>>10443111
>Pram
>Lenneth
Mah nigga.

>>10444096
>oc threads need more non2hu stuff.
Ain't that the truth. You guys need to make more original shit, like a series or something.

>>10444511
I really like your songs and your voice (it has character even if it's flat) but I think you should work on composing music a bit.

>>10445032
More than a few of the regulars have their own original characters. Maybe not a series, but certainly characters.

I've been watching the threads for a while, but I've always been too shy to contribute. Since it's a new year though, I figured I should at least try to get my feet wet...

It's not really anything special this time, though.

>>10445500
I think it's rather cute, your style is distinct, though it sort of reminds me of Utena, or a very early animu style.

>>10445500
Looks promising, keep it up!

I get depressed everytime I see an underaged drawing better than me

http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id202698552
that girl is 15 and she's like 2 year better than my draws, and she's not even a prodige

>>10442386
now that's a cute futo

>>10445621
that's why I never look up at the age thing

>>10443532
cute

>>10445621
See that third picture titled 'Alice' in that artist's recent bookmarks? That girl just turned 18 two months ago.

Well, if that whole drawing gig doesn't work out for you guys there are plenty of successful writers that started with grey hair.

>>10445651
I just do both. I'm certainly 100x a better writer than I am an artist.

>>10445621
You'll beat her sooner or later, don't worry.

She'll grow up, find a boyfriend or a dozen, get a job, get married and have kids, and somewhere in the midst of it all abandon her art.

You, on the other hand, have no such distractions, and can continue to improve at your own pace until the day you kill yourself.

>>10445638
but Rella is an prodige, she borned with talent

>>10445667
No, she is just very lucky. She goes to art classes as an almost live-in situation. She basically breathes it--not just anime, either. She studies the classics, and does plenty of traditional work to further hone her skill. She is very good, no doubt, but even she had to work for it, optimal situation or not.

>>10445687
So, in the end
It's all money

>>10445707

Thank you! I really enjoy older shoujo,Year 24 Group stuff especially; it really influences my writing style and design habits, but I hadn't really thought about my drawing itself.

I'll try to keep it up! Bodies tend to be my problem area so I'll have something more adventurous next time.

>>10445500

>>10445727
I would get someone that knows what they're talking about - meaning not me - to tell you whether or not the right eye in both of your images is floating high on the face.

>>10443532
;3

>>10445621
it's because she started drawing earlier than you

age is no measure of skill, the only thing that matters is the effort you put in

now stop feeling sorry for yourself and go draw

>>10445771
Who would start drawing with 10 years old?
she must have some pressure from her parents or something
the avarege starting point is around 17

>>10445792
What? People start drawing from all ages. It's really normal for a child to have more interest in drawing than other kids before 8 or something. Sure you're not just pulling that out your ass?

>>10445800
then why all these drawing love kids don't grow up into professionals? I bet a lot of persons in this thread might have start early but none of them was an star when teenaged

>>10445760

Probably because I never draw the lower eyelid, but I see what you mean, Anon! I've gotten that before, but I guess I just got better about ignoring it instead of fixing it? Oops.

Does this look a little more level?

>>10445848
so, let me get this straight, you think art skill is something inherent from birth

go fuck yourself

see this image? the person who drew it is 16. but two years ago she was making trash like this: http://shinigamiwyvern.deviantart.m/art/Cosplay-Couple-LassXArme-1799941?q=sort%3Atime%20gallery%3Asnigamiwyvern&qo=98

she's good because she put the effort into improving

Someday I will have something to contribute to one of these OC threads. But not today.

>>10446721
requesting Magister x "Someday I will have something to contribute to one of these OC threads. But not today"-san lewd art

So I drew this face, but I can't seem to shape a head and chin around it. Can anyone help? This happens to me a lot.

>>10447058
how would you depict them? i remember magister saying lily is his self insert character, but no idea about the other guy.

>>10447092
just use simples shapes instead

>>10436655
I've collaborated on a full doujin before, but...it's a lot of work.

>>10439616
I recently swapped to an Intuos4L from a 4M.

>>10440680
You mean one of her legs? I just like impossibly wide hips and thighs.

>>10447058
>>10447096
Random faceless anon? I don't really know.

>>10447092
Any of these help out?

>>10447151
would lily be the one getting fucked, and if so in which hole, or the one fucking anon with a futa dick/strap on in the ass/mouth and depositing her load inside him?

asking some info on your idea of her personality as far as she goes, in case anyone wanted to tackle it.

>>10431428
What ethnicity are you?

I swear only asians draw like this

>>10447092
Maybe it would help you to draw the facial parts after the head... Because that's the usual order. Maybe then she wouldn't be cross-eyed anymore.

>>10446090
Talent doesn't exist
It's all hard work

>>10446721
damn, that's really really cute
are you going to finish that?

>>10447235
No.
>>10447281
change "hard work" with "having fun", and you're close to the truth

first time doing animu stuff

i think im going about it the wrong way, my lines suck ass

Alright /jp/,I'm all pumped up and I need some professional critics on this quick Kyouko sketch I made on how to make it more "real" anatomy-wise. I don't care how you do it, comment or sketch down on Kyouko with different ink colour. I'm tired of getting these "looks good" and "cute" comments bullshit.

Also any tips on how to draw in different camera angles? I need to stop drawing people facing the same direction.

>>10447603
Cute.

>>10447603
Looks good.

>>10447603
Looks cute.

>>10447603
Good.

>>10447603
>I need to stop drawing people facing the same direction.

Why? Are you drawing an action comic? frontal, sideways, behind, and rotated to a side is all you need. How much art do you see that's way above somebody without being dramatic? How much do you see that's below them without being fetishistic?

>>10447603
http://www.posemaniacs.com/

>>10447693
>Why?
Maybe because they want to? The better question is why would you limit yourself to a few poses when the body is capable of such a larger range of motion.

>>10447151
Reimu's face is delicious.

>>10447283

>>10448564
Okay, I've always considered you a pretty mediocre 4chan artist, but the latest drawings are making me change my mind.
I will not give you any advice, because at this point, I'm the one that have to learn.
bravo.

>>10447990
>The better question is why would you limit yourself to a few poses when the body is capable of such a larger range of motion.
Do you sometimes stand on your head while using the computer for shits and giggles? Do you do yoga and gymnastics? Do you draw with your toes?

Why would you contort a body into unnatural poses unnecessarily? It won't look good even if you do it perfectly.

>>10448564
thank you anon
she even more cute now

I wish I could kiss you for finish her

>>10447357
>having fun while drawing

Really? Every time I draw something, I end up getting extressed with lines, poses and all stuff
I can't keep doing this for 1 hour or more

>>10449006
Then you're pretty shitty at it. Why the fuck are you doing something you don't enjoy?

>>10449033

#FirstWorldProblems

>>10449044
That doesn't make any sense. If anything, you have a much larger range of potential hobbies if you aren't in a third world shithole.

>>10447231
Lily would be the one doing the fucking. She's a proud, energetic, overreacting tomboy with an inferiority complex. I'm not up to doing it myself, though.

I don't even know what I'm drawing anymore. My fetishes have spun out of control.

I was working on a cute little STG a while ago. The important parts of the engine were pretty much finished, but I gave up because of some lag issues I couldn't sort out. Guess that's what I get for working with XNA. Lesson learned, I'll move on to SDL/OpenGL.
This was one of the bosses. I drew the head, bangs, body, etc. seperately so I could render them in layers and make them move/tilt slightly. The head movement and eyes follow the cursur.
I also tried to copy that shader effect from the neptunia android app that makes it look like the character is breathing.

Something I'm working on for a friend of mine

>>10449520
You seem to have some promise, but you lack technique.

Don't get lazy and you might get somewhere someday.

>>10449501
XNA is dead and buried anyway, so yeah.

>>10449562
>You seem to have some promise, but you lack technique.
Eh? Please explain, I'm always open to constructive criticism

(Also my picture is a WIP, so it's obvious that it's incomplete lol)

>>10449564
MS might revive it (XNA 5) for the 720.
Why can't Sony be as cool as MS and give away free devkits?

>>10449592
Because only does proprietary formats.
Besides, the coding for the PS3 was a mess.

>>10449591
Oh, it was just a general comment - the hands and the unsteady lines betray you as a relative beginner, but the bold use of color, use of space, and the (subjectively)cute character make me think you might be pretty good once you get more practice.

>>10449592
Nuh-uh.

http://gamasutra.com/view/news/1854/Its_official_XNA_is_dead.php

>>10449636
Oh, okay. Good riddance, I guess. Also time to learn GLSL.

>>10449501
I was once writing my own engine with OpenGL and also ran into some weird lag issues that I could have fixed but couldn't be bothered to spend the countless hours needed to fix it.
OpenGL is a huge mess and picky about how it works with different systems. At some point you have to ask yourself whether you want to make a graphics engine or a game, pick one or the other.

Also SDL sucks.

>>10449636
It's funny because in the same article they quote Microsoft as saying they still support it, and then gossip about how Microsoft therefore doesn't support it. What added value would an XNA 5 bring other than support for their unpopular Windows 8 platform?

>>10449501
>OpenGL
No anon, don't!

>>10449489
Good, good...
You needn't control the fetishes, let them control you!

Very cute. Would pet.

Made something while practice
nothing very important, but I'll post to contribute


>>10452200
I would pet too

Way too cute. Dangerously even.

Its just me, or lately the board is awfully slow?

anyone knows any good tutorial for coloring?

I feel like my way of color is too... weak

here's an old one

>>10452788
>>10453105

>>10453105
best way to learn to color is playing around with real physical paints, I think

it's a lot of fun too

I started making a /jp/ tabletop game in the vein of vampire the masquerade. I've just got basic ideas down for now but I think I'm going to go to /tg/ for help with rules and balance once I have all my ideas sorted out. it's based in a world that is supposed to be /jp/ personified.

>>10453188
>it's based in a world that is supposed to be /jp/ personified.
lol epic XD

Please kill yourself.

>>10453188
Make sure to add a MMO lover class.

>>10447092
Here you go bro.
This should solve all your problems.
No need to thank me.

>>10453437
Pretty good.

>>10453437
10/10 would imouto

>>10449489
>My fetishes have spun out of control.

Just as planned

now draw Lily pregnant

Speaking of coloring, I guess!

I keep trying to make myself color a single thing each day so I can develop a consistent style (I do it so infrequently I always forget how to, oops), but I always get busy with classes and forget.

>>10453188
No.

>>10453451
And Himari as a monster girl.

>>10454012

over the line, I don't know if he'd be capable of drawing something like that anyway

>>10453451
>>10454012
geeeeez...

>>10453451
i'd rather just see lily being bukkaked by someone. can be anyone, even dickgirl himari or jadf's girl.

I'm testing coloring methods. Which one looks better?

>>10455567
The right one.

>>10455567
The left one.

>>10455567
Too many good and bad parts of both. The left one, to make a choice though.

>>10455567
I like right method more, but left has the character stand out more from the background color wise

>>10455567
Both are shit.

Most importantly, that's not how steam works.

>>10455567

Oh, another new guy. left is better, the right one is wrong.
nice job, by the way.

No thanks.

>>10455949
whats wrong?

the game's development is slow as dump!

i am the only active developer

>>10455955
I think what (>>10455949) is trying to get at is that, judging by your "kyaa~!" the IRC channel is probably full of people who put xD on the end of every line they post, which is unsatisfactory.

>>10450605
I...I really like Maruchiro, too. I really couldn't help it.

>>10453451
>>10454012
Lily is more likely to get you pregnant. I am totally ok with drawing Himari as a monster girl.

>>10456180
Well, if you really want to take the holy path of super goodtimes bodymods, you have all my support.

>>10455567
So I guess the left one wins.

Which is better in this one?

>>10456378
it always depends on what impression you want to make

meek, sad, calm=
-low saturation
-or mostly cool colors
-average to low contrast
-low key in general

and exciting, emotional, strong=
-saturated colors
-more warm colors


>>10456378
i like the right one because it accentuates the back so well, but it really depends on what it's used for.

>>10456378
1. totally not related. I mean, completely totally.
2. they're both pretty bad
3. wow, that's pretty awesome.

>>10456180
I just wanted to say I greatly appreciate this drawing and the colors you gave it.

>>10456180
Hmm, something about that face...

Why don't you usually do more expressive faces like these? It adds a lot more to the drawing overall when you do it in this manner. Even when you do something like a model pose.

>>10456525
Thanks.

>>10456743
I've been trying to do more faces that aren't just ":D". I really need to try and improve the expressions I give.

>>10457421

Use the right one but with the middle one's bangs.

Left my comfort zone and did something other than a head today. Feeling appropriately uncomfortable.

>>10458106
long as HELL legs, you're doing well though

>>10458106
Cool.

Didn't have $90 to get a sukusuku plush off of ebay, waited way too long to get one from Japan...so I made one. And I like Momiji more, so I made a Momiji one.

>>10458912
also thinking about making a collection of them...
Once I get materials for it all, I'm thinking of making one of Cirno, Chen, and Mokou.

>>10457021
Oh, so you're friend of Dan Kim?
I guess its only natural for great artists to get along

>>10458912
It's pretty cute. Keep up the good work.

>>10459054
what are you talking about?
dan kim has no friends.

>>10459054
>great artists
Hehe.

>>10459184
Thanks!
Would it be a good idea to post it on Etsy or something for commissions?

>>10458912
Sorry, but it looks pretty bad for me. I like when people do that kind of stuff though, keep it up.

>>10459539
You should probably make more and try to refine it before trying to sell them.

>>10458912
>>10459539
It's really cute anon! But I'm not sure if it's quite at a good enough level to be sold yet. Keep trying, though, I'm sure you're gonna get there soon enough~!

>>10459539
>>10459592
>>10459545
What do you think I should improve on?
It was the first one I've made so far, so I know it's far from perfect.

Can someone help me redline this? I really have no idea how to approach the feet, it's a concept forever lost to me.

Also critique in general would be nice..it's been a while since I've drawn anything.

>>10460012
also sorry about the horrid quality, all I have is an ipod camera and Instagram to attempt to make the lines darker.

>>10460014
>>10460012
>ipod camera
>instagram
Oh wow. Just wow.

>>10460038
Is there something wrong with this?
I don't have a scanner.

>>10458652

long legs are my fetish, it's an awful affliction. I'm always so upset when I double-check and I realize most people's calves aren't nearly as long as I like making them.

>>10459830
The cheek blushes are kinda crappy. What's the hat made out of? It's hard to tell.

>>10460918
Yeah..I used my makeup for that and the color turned out to be way too dark for what I was going for. The hat is made out of felt, but I had a really hard time shaping it since the tacky glue I had was shit and didn't hold at all. I ended up melting the edges over a candle flame. I'm thinking of using fleece next time. But if I do that, I might as well make the entire thing out of fleece.
I've grown fond of the yarn tail, though..
Also, for the cheeks, I'm thinking of using a lighter blush powder or maybe chalk.

>>10460865
That looks pretty nice.

This thread is on the last page. Will there be another one to take its place?

>>10461527
There always is, but it's a common courtesy to wait at least a day or so--too many threads too fast means nobody has time to create.

>>10461569
Oh, I see.

>>10457021
I like this one, I'm glad you coloured it. I think that the facial expression for this Reimu in particular gives a much more ero feeling than your usual works.
