>>12262906
don't i know you from somewhere...?

That jp when a more than half-decent artist makes the op and your simple shitty cute oc doodle girl isn't enough anymore.

>>12262942
You don't need skill to be a beloved artist, just style.

>>12262942
I know that jp dude

>>12262949
Skill is the medium that carries style. If you don't have skill, you won't be able to express any style (well, except that ``toddler tries to draw something'' style most adults have).

>>12262949
Without skill, any 'style' you try to show will be sterile and unattractive. They go hand in hand, sorry.

>muh style

LOOMIS AND VILPPU NOW.

Spare us the sob story and just post your drawings.

>>12263022
Wow, that's pretty sexy. Looks like that creature Aids Hirano voiced in Gatchman Crowds, except with purple hair…

>>12263022
I have an idea from some request I got on /tg/.

It's hard to explain but the main elements are powersuits a long dead planet with little life yet it is extremely dangerous at night filled with scavenger creatures. Anyway just imagine a loli in one of these suits, I may draw it up if I get bored I don't know.

It's a shit idea, but I'll look for any accuse to draw little girls in giant mecha suits.

>>12263038
Nice samurai toe slippers, dude *snicker*

>>12263070
I suck at feet mang, I need to look into the anatomy better...Also I got kinda lazy around that end.

Fuck my laziness.

>>12263038
noice, try post this on /m/ anon

Does anyone else here have anything to show?

It feels like show and tell in primary all over again.

>>12263038
thanks for the free imagination dude

>>12263242
I wish I had some of that imagination right now, because I can't figure out what the HECK is going on in that picture.

>>12263287
you need to look beyond what you see

I have learned that I absolutely hate scripting and flow graphs.

>>12263291

>>12263291
Whatever, dude.

>>12263293
Are you making a little girl simulator anon?

Because I'd play the shit outta that, I'd go around school smacking bitches on the ass.

>>12263362
No, he's making a road rage simulator where you run over little girls in a van. If your van is destroyed, you can also get off the van and kick them in the groin until they explode into gory chunks.

It's an amazing game.

>>12263367
That's unacceptable.

>>12263293
Cryengine 3? What are you up to anon?

I tried asking for advice on how to fix my code so turning isn't so weird and glitchy but that agdg place is full of weirdos.

>>12263468
Well what's wrong with it and let's see the script.

>>12263468
cute

>>12263468
a cute!

>>12263478
If what you're referring to is how it appears to jump 180 degrees when you attempt to move forward or back, you need to rewrite your movement algorithm.
For example, if you used WASD to move the character forward, backward, strafe left/right based on camera position, what you're supposed to do is interpolate between the character's current bearing to the direction she's supposed to be facing.
For example, when facing camera south and attempting to move camera north, you can favor one direction and have the character slowly move forward (still southward at this point) but have her quickly interpolate between 180 degrees to 0 degrees, and boost her velocity as she gets closer to the intended bearing.

>>12263487
It would also be nice if you constrained animation speed with movement speed.

>>12263478

It's mostly this one, the motor.
http://pastebin.com/xK235BVJ
(I put this one here in case you're curious)
http://pastebin.com/Uzbp9gbc

The issue specifically is the rotatingPlayer function. I need to find a way to separate the value that's initially received, the move vector, to something else and then have the look at function do it in increments.

I don't understand how and I left the comments in there so you can kind of get an idea of what isn't working (Slerps don't like constant input values)

>>12263487
Oh. I was using the axis command. I don't think I want anything like velocity change or anything complex just to stop the first issue.

>>12262906
Next time wait before making a new thread. we don't want this to become like /a/ ones

Those limbs are probably fucked somehow but dammit I don't even care anymore. It's a cute girl.

>Your image contains an embedded file
What the fuck, 4chan, I'm not trying to hack you

>>12263106
I do, but it has nipples, is nipples acceptable on /jp/?

Oh I also did this to practice rendering. I like those pikimin images that koki person did so I tried to work on improving my rendering skills to match it. Still need to improve.

>>12263551
Do you start painting with the light or the dark part?

>>12263664

The base color and then the shadow.

>>12263668
and for base color you mean the one in the middle, I guess?

>>12262906
I just wanna say thats a cute drawing that the OP uploaded~

>>12263678

Yes. It was a random shape I made that was a blob of flat color then I rendered shadows onto it to try and give it depth.

>>12263687
I'll try doing that too later

>>12263686
This thread theme is "draw you're imouto"

>>12263550
As long as you upload it to imgur or something and link it here. That way your post won't be deleted!

>>12263468
>>12263492
Does it really bother you though?

I don't think most gamers even notice stuff like that anymore because it's so common, and it's common for a reason
It's ok to sacrifice a little bit of realism to have better feeling control over the player.

I hate games that do that interpolation stuff that this guy described >>12263487
There's 2 ways to do it, 1 is to have your actual movement be completely unefected and you only interpolate the animation not the player position, but then it's going to actually look worse IMO. People don't just instantly start walking backwards as they slowly and smoothly spin around, in the games I've seen do this it always looks less natural than an instant 180 degree turn
Or you could interpolate the players position rather than just the animation to force them to spin around slower. This is probably the most realistic way of doing it, but it will feel like your player is walking on glue

>>12263969

Didn't mean to quote that anon,
just meant to post an image I drew to be ignored /told it is shit

>>12262906
I really hope that isn't supposed to say womp rats, fucking retard.

>>12264093
>fucking retard
But he is a good artist.

>>12264093
Why would you think that? Wombats is something that exist, so why the accusation and name calling?

>>12263487
I think the best solution for you is to implement a turn animation whenever the character has to move >60 degrees.
Not really sure how you'd do that.

No one responded to my drawing...

>>12263524
It looks like feet aren't on the same plane as laptop. Her right foot (left for the viewer) should be lower. Build a grid every time you're not sure how your planes and perspective work.

Also, her legs have about zero volume, you should probably look into that too.

>>12264123
tell me which one it is and I will talk about it

>>12264093
You seriously don't know what a wombat is? But you feel free to insult people in a great display of stupidity.

that feel when you want to write anime esque stories, but never read any because they're boring or trash, and therefore don't know how to write a compelling anime esque story. I guess I'm just gonna trudge through stuff on wattpad to see what is anime and cool. Or maybe young adult novels will suffice. All I know is that the literary stuff I enjoy reading is rarely ever liked by "otaku."

>>12264157
Shut the FUCK up kid.

I drew my first nude person, it's Remilia, tried to make her look like she just woke up, how did I do, /jp/?

I went for canon accuracy here, you see, according to Sacramento Seacrest in Bohemian Red, Remilia prefers to sleep in an empty, grey void, devoid of any and all life, because she can't draw an actual bed or a room, how about that?

>>12264335
Thank you anon, this was very helpful.

Reminds me of MegaMan Legends.

>>12264344
5/10 yer getting there! But Remilia's charm is best brought out with lots of frilly clothing and a childish haughty attitude.

>>12264083
republic of Mustard & Ketchup?

>>12264424
5/10 on what scale? It looks like complete garbage if you rate it against anything actually good.

>>12264431
5/10 in /jp/ scale
its "50% taken easy" on imperial system

>>12264431
Well, considering Zun is 10/10...

>>12264344
Disrespectful/10

>>12263969

The only part that bothers me is that is how sometimes if you press one direction in quick succession she may sometimes snap back to the 0,0,0 origin. I think it has to do with the axis resetting to zero every time you begin a completely new input. and it not updating fast enough to keep the new direction.

I need to somehow keep my last direction value and then use it to then find the difference between it and my new direction and then have the lookat function increment (not like a tank but maybe just 3-4 frames to help add a little spin to it)

I love you /jp/ drawfags.

>>12264678
I love you too.

Why does your sister have blonde hair when yours is black?

>>12263719
Cute butt, dude.

d-d-dan-tan

>>12265478
I like your style, its a nice change of pace.

I tried to clean up apple girl which involved doing some new stuff. I found a website that actually uploads game models so I got a few PS2 models and pulled them apart. It's really insightful to see. Hopefully the next models will look even better.

I think I may have lost a little bit of the chart of the original hair. If I can fix that somehow I will but she is a lot cleaner now. I also tried doing a but of what Kingdom Hearts does with its painted textures by making it slightly softer than the hard edges.

>>12265583
You need a way to hide her hands

>>12265583
when I first saw your original apple girl I was actually disappointed to see her turn around to reveal a little girls face instead of more apple.

>>12265583
She could at least get some lashes and blush to make her face look more feminine. It looks like a little boy to me.

>>12265591
I prefer it that way.

>>12265478
Where are the extra faces? Like Sakahagi, extra faces are Dantalian's charm point.

>>12265518
It is, isn't it?

>>12265585

Why?

>>12265587
Well I am thinking of adding characters that aren't just fruit people so maybe I'll add some weirder things soon enough!

>>12265591
I'll think about it. She is hard working and has no time for makeup.

>>12265615
you could probably look into different positions.

as far as i remember, every character you posted here had the exact same pose.

>>12265642
I posted this yesterday?
>>12264083
Is a point, though.

>>12265643
ok, almost every/female.

i remember you posted some stuff a few days/weeks ago and they had the same pose.

>>12265646
It is a good point.
Next drawing I'll attempt some thing different.

>>12265646
How dis?

>>12265686
I'm extremely sorry

>>12265686
pose's different so that's nice. are those arms inspired by popeye?

>>12265720
It looks shit?

>>12265724
>are those arms inspired by popeye?
Got carried away.
Am I completely talentless would you say?
Some people just can't hack it?

>>12265744
nah, just practice your poses to be more dynamic, interesting. it's one of the harder parts of drawing. if all else fails, get a camera (even cell phone one's fine), set it to auto shutter and pose yourself.

other than the arm size which probably should be fixed, you've got an unique style which might be why some people hate it. it's probably too western looking/not uguu enough for them or something.

>>12265744
no such thing as talent, only hard work and dedication.

>>12265783
did your mom tell you that

>>12265784
people aren't born special, everyone's born incompetent and without training they won't get anywhere.

some have better hand eye coordination, more vivid imagination or such, but that's just a little headstart in training, not a magical fairytale called talent.

without training you'll still only draw preschool-tier scribbles, no matter how much of this magical, ever-elusive talent you may have.

>>12265802
of course you need practice, but people with talent will get good faster and can reach higher levels of skill than people without talent

>>12265819
Maybe that talent just means that these people just learn in a smarter way.
Whenever I see "talented" people do something they seem to be more playfull and less narrow-minded, if that makes sense.

>>12265802
People that peddle blind optimism to feel good about themselves are sub-human.

>>12265751
>you've got an unique style which might be why some people hate it. it's probably too western looking/not uguu enough for them or something.

I hate it because everyone looks the same and has the same fucking face(which provided, along with the hair, the artist is decent at drawing). Most of them also have Unzan behind them for no real reason. Are they supposed to be Stands or something? The hands also don't look stylistic but more like the artist is too lazy to bother drawing them.

In fact, the hands, clothes, coloring, halfway shading, and body shapes make it look like the artist got tired of drawing 1/3rd of the way through instead of being stylistic. They can keep their muscular features but the artist needs to work on their anatomy somewhat and put more effort into their clothes. Even the hatching coloring gets lazy at some points and looks more like smudges.

>>12265846
>>12265856
So are people that peddle blind pessimism.
But the blind optimist has a higher change of getting somewhere at some point.

Personally, I find both annoying.

>>12265859
I'm the person who drew that, by the way.
Never intended to offend you by drawing it,
just some thing I do as a side thing.
>Most of them also have Unzan behind them for no real reason.
Just thought it looked interesting.
There is no real point to any of the drawings.
>In fact, the hands, clothes, coloring, halfway shading, and body shapes make it look like the artist got tired of drawing 1/3rd of the way through instead of being stylistic.

Even the hatching coloring gets lazy at some points and looks more like smudges.
I'll try and spend more time on each drawing.

>>12265862
Blind optimists are lazy dumb gamblers incapable of learning from mistakes, they're no better than pessimists.

I wonder if the one who made the song in >>/jp/thread/S10913321#p10935670 is still around. I was listening to it again while playing the early build of lolisim in that same thread and I was wondering if they've posted more. I'm not good enough to identify the /jp/ music artists though, since I rarely listen to the music people upload.

Trying to get better at SAI.

>>12266034
SAI is fun.

>>12266034
Accidentally rotated that but you get the idea. Not going to fill thread up with another picture. Copy paste into image editor of choice please. Sorry.

I tried to believe in both training or talent, but I'm still terrible.
fuck blind peddlers

>>12266140
it took me over 20 years to get to half decent level. have fun if you think few months is all it takes.

>>12266154
Post something you've made, please.

>>12266154
I'm like 30 and I started drawing before learning to walk
where is your god now?!

>>12266162
i'm also 30 and started drawing when i was at preschool. i just never had this magical fairy called talent so it took lots of time.

>>12266156
i used to post scanned pencil sketches from time to time. i only started learning how to color a few weeks ago when i got a tablet.

http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=287125

>>12266174
>i'm also 30
taking in consideration the time you took to reach that level and the fact that you define it "half decent" I'm convinced more than before that talent actually exists.

>>12266201
maybe it was just dedication.

i needed 2d porn, and i had none because no internet.

then internet was shit because 56k and by the time it got good enough to have pixiv, boorus and other sources of good porn i was able to draw my own stuff.

i must've used over 100k a4 paper sheets and countless amount of pencils/erasers until now.

>>12266174
>30
>when I was at preschool
>20 years ago

wait wait wait what

>>12266270
that's why i said over 20 years ago.

i'm not sure when i started drawing, just that recently while going through some stuff at my old place i found some shitty drawings i made while i wasn't even at school yet.

but since my memories from those times are nonexistant, i can't say if those were single things or if i used to draw more shit.

i'm pretty sure i started churning out picture after picture once i hit puberty though.

>>12266285
>nonexistant
Wow, you are illiterate.

>>12266233
No, you got it wrong. I didn't mean you're good, I meant that you should be ten times better than this, and that stuff is nowhere near "almost decent".

>>12266289
english isn't my first language, sorry.

>>12266293
What does that have to do with spelling things like a retard?

>>12265626
She has extra faces and eyes in her true final form

>>12266292
oh, ok. all i needed it for was 2d animu porn so maybe that's why you hate it so much.

>>12266289
different grammar, different rules, and you can't really shake your primary language's habits that easily when you only learned it to browse the net and watch foreign cartoons over satellite/cable because occupying communist government didn't approve of american propaganda on their own tv channels when you were a kid.

>>12266292
Harsh. Its decent stuff, but he should definitely be better than that.

>>12266314
>all i needed it for was 2d animu porn
Yeah, there are people out there who actually put legitimate effort into this and then there's this guy who thinks he can excuse himself from being garbage because "it's just porn".

>>12266326
ok, so they have talent, i've got none and hard work will still give you nothing of worth.

>>12266336
ha ha ha ha

I forgot that good artists started out that way and never had to learn how to improve.

>>12266351
it's hard to improve when all you have to work with is "you suck lmao".

>>12266351
Yeah my mom told me everyone is born equal.

>>12266354
Self-instruction is the best path to success. But you really sound like the kind of guy that needs everything spoonfed to you.

>>12266369
i meant if you never get actual criticism other than "you're shit" ones, you'll never see your problems.

if you did, you'd never make them in the first place.

>>12266374
>i meant if you never get actual criticism other than "you're shit" ones, you'll never see your problems.
Stop trying to assert your own experience as if it applies to everyone. Real artists can assess their strengths and weaknesses by comparing their work to the works of others. But I see you have a pitifully low amount of bookmarks on your pixiv. Obviously if someone limits their view to their own work and the generic crap I see in your bookmarks list they'll think they're an awesome artist until someone specifically has to tell them otherwise like they're a two-year-old.

Its all Dan Kim's fault.
curse you Dan!

At first I read "wombats" in OP pic as "womb rats". I don't even want to imagine what the fuck that is.

>>12262906
where can i follow more of this artist? it looks cute

>>12266174
Wow, have you never opened an art book in your entire life? Because you have a really poor understanding of anatomy. Even by anime standards.

>>12266387
i use bookmarks mostly to make it easier to search the character/author tags for any new stuff, since the one on main page is limited to pitiful 10 tags.

i save everything i like to my pc.

>>12266400
I'm not sure who it is.

>>12266396
>womb rats
Nazrin is pregnant again?!

>>12265583
Cute.

>>12266387
So basically you don't know.

Is it too early for me to release a crossfade for my C86 release?

>>12266537
who are you!? Please identify yourself!
maybe you are one of my favorite artist/producer

>>12266537
Its not if you do instrumental metal

>>12266552
I doubt you've heard of me, I'm just a /jp/er trying to make music not some big well known doujin circle

That's bullshit.

it is a bit fast I guess you didn't want to do extra frames

>>12262906

>>12264424
Thank you Anon, I sketched the pose for this before I decided which character I wanted it to be (A habit of mine that I've been trying to kick lately), and before long I shaped it into a Remilia cause I like her
>>12264431
No need to be rude Anon, I've only been doing this for about nine months, what you see is to be predicted of my meager drawing expertise...
>>12264709
You're probably right, my vision lacks a certain clarity when it comes to head size and the like, I'm not sure how big to make them...

I guess I'm sort of creating OC

It was fun.

Some weird things you will encounter while restoring the garden.

I don't think the weird spider will be a tenant so much as an undesirable invader species. The same with the conch.

>>12266798
Don't mind me, I'm just borrowing your girl for a bit.

>>12266400
>>12266405

Your best bet is following these threads. The last time OP's pixiv was updated was 4 months ago.

>>12267030
That hair style... could it be? No, it couldn't possibly be the retired Janitor from few years past!

>>12263378
Making a video game that hopefully some people around here will try and break. Once the story line is finished and bug tested I can start working on making the side exploration area and creating all new assets.

>>12263468
I like it that way. If I want to go south instead of north I don't want to wait 2~4 seconds for the person to turn around. I would continue working on the game aspect before you start trying to fix minor things. I find it much easier to make a to-do list of items I want to go over again later and continue working on the larger picture.

>>12267260

Okay. It wouldn't be anywhere near that long. I was thinking more like half a second spinning. You'd still be moving as you rotate too.

>>12263468

megaman legends 3?

>>12267346
Can you post wires of the apple-girl model?

>>12267371

I'm not sure how to do that so I tried to pull apart the objects as best I could.

>>12266929
Study some anatomy. Either check out some of your favorite artists on pixiv for a sense of "manga proportions" or study from life/photos.

haven't drawn her in some time

I love you.

>>12267455
Dan? Is that you?

>>12267520
You're bad at this.

>>12266990
Well I'll be damned, these look great. I'm hyped now.

>>12267506
I think the biggest issue here is an unnatural pose.
Plus, your central object is way off center.
Hope it helps. Don't give up!

>>12264344
she looks boyish; cute.

>>12264709
i'm not going to say that it's his style, but damn, i actually like the big head.

>>12266990
Your crow merchant looks more like a goose.
Not that it bothers me much. I like where this is going.
>>12267563
>your central object is way off center.
That doesn't has to be bad if he would knew a bit about composition, so
>>12267506
I advice you to add composition to your list of things to learn.

>>12267696

Thanks. I did decide to change it to match more of a crow. I've never modeled wings before so trying to add feathers to his arms is tricky. I also have no idea how these are going to fold when his arms go down. It's probably going to be a nightmare to do.

>>12267811

Please, spare yourself.
I'm no modeler, and I don't know how to explain this properly, but please take a look at this.

Oh. That is a good idea!

>>12267696
These books are completely useless. Thanks for wasting my time. Jerk.

>>12267847
Not the jerk you're referring to, but that's because you clearly don't feel the composition. You've got to feel the composition, man, gotta feel it, gotta feel the flow of your picture, gotta let you picture flow how you feel it, why don't you feel it 420 everyday.

Jokes aside, try putting someone in the doorway.

A mockup eroge I just finished. Maybe one day I will actually help make one. It's not a game or anything just a picture.

>>12267881
Reimu wants to have a word with whoever decided on these library fines.

>>12267847
I didn't advice you to read any book, I did advice you to learn about composition. I'll stay away from giving you any advice in future, you rude person.

>>12267986
Sorry, it was supposed to be a dumb joke about composition books. These are blank books that people write whatever in, school notes, diaries, once in awhile, an actual composition. Usually, nothing useful.

Maybe I got a little to in character drawing Tenshi. Once again apologies, you're not a jerk but a wonderful person.

Why yes! The fine rabbit who sold me these -- the very latest "tek-nolo-gee", says it is the fashionable way to use these when web-surfing! She even added a "Bonzi Bunny" and "Antispyware 2012!" Most generous of her!

The roleplaying is really awkward.
Anyways here's a basic tutorial on compostition. I know it says it's for photography but it still works. It's also not the only way to do things.

>>12268213
Shouldn't the lines be at about 2/5 portions and not 1/3 portions?

>>12268242
You're probably refering to the fibonacci series (1/2, 2/3, 3/5 (or the opposite, 2/5), 5/8, etc.) wich is close to the golden ratio (or more correctly, get's closer the farther it goes). That's a valid way but in photography they generally use the simpler "rule of thirds". There's also other stuff, like positive and negative diagonals, how the eye generally moves across the image, "balance", where the portrayed people look and where things point and other stuff. Good composition can make a dynamic picture more dynamic and a calm picture more calm. Bad composition makes the image look wierd.

>>12268102
I think I like your wierd humor but this is too much roleplaying for me. And what was scrap120_a.jpg?

/jp/, how do I draw genki things if I don't feel genki desu-ka?

Get a good illustrator for your story and they will gobble it up.

Doesn't even matter if the story is shit.

>>12268598
There's still a free seat on the no willingness boat?

>>12268654
Don't do this.

Shit story + great art = shit
Shit art + great story = great

>>12264161
How do you want to write an anime esque story if you hate anime? Don't bother if you're not going to do it properly. Some super westernized "this is how I would make a harem story" or even worse, a "parody" of the things you hate about anime will just be a huge pile all the way through. Go for the generic route and make something that follows some anime you actually like. Don't be scared to make a stereotypical story as long as the feeling is correct.

You can even do that thing where they take some story and make it anime style. Choose something people like like Beauty and the Beast or Rapunzel and use those themes in your story like how Japan loves the shit out of Red Riding Hood and Alice's adventures in wonderland.

I should probably smooth him out a little too, hes really pointy.

I am not very good with buildings. I'll try to rework it later. I should probably research dome huts.

>>12270426
it doesn't look that bad. just add some small detail to make it look like cloth

>>12270428

Yes. I will most certainly be redoing the main texture, and moving the log.

>>12270426
what size is it going to be in the end?
Remember, if you add too much shit to an object that will end up occupying a small portion of the screen its gonna end up looking like a clusterfuck of fuck. depending on the size maybe simpler is better.

>>12270002
Those are some doujin tits if I've ever seen any

Man, why drawing is so hard when you don't have a clear image?

If this works like reverse pregnancy, she can apparently get about 270 mice inside her womb.

They will be squished together and quite uncomfortable, though, and she'll look like she's pregnant with triplets.

>>12265431
OP must be Japanese, blonde girls are really common in Japan!

I decided to redo the building completely with a sketch. I'm not sure how to model this though. Box modeling has not helped.

>>12271755
It does look a lot more interesting. I think mostly because it has multiple base colors, nice amount of detail and an unusual silhouette. You can apply everything above to your previous model, too - just saying.

>>12271905

I'm not sure how to tile textures. I have some models of wind waker buildings and it seems they didn't tile textures. I was hoping to make a cobblestone texture for the bottom part but I guess now I have to create a strip of stones.

ok, i'm working on a vocaloid song. doesn't have any lyrics yet, but i have a melody recorded.

>>12271947
Looking forward to it, anon.

>>12271950

alright, here we go:

http://www.mediafire.com/listen/hhtuw6ddu6j1tmp/Guitar+Sample.wav

I plugged in some nonsense syllables to the vsq make it sound more interesting (words mean nothing at this point).

Also, the guitar is recorded off of my phone lol. will be using a legit mic for a final version

>>12271955
that's surprisingly good dude!

>>12271955
Shit, that's pretty promising.

Do continue.

>>12271967
>>12271973

thank you, thank you. I'm waiting to get in touch with my friend who speaks japanese to write the lyrics haha.

If you guys have any ideas, let me know.

I'm still newish with vocaloids but I've done a decent number of covers and a couple originals.

No, he is alive. And this will be his house.

I just need to finish working on th textures. I was trying to get that old cottage feel but my roof (which is also the wood texture) doesn't look like thatching. I only just found out what that kind of roof is called so I will have to fix it.

I'm also not sure what the black lines are for but I've seen them on some cottages and it was a nice way to try and get a texture onto the body of the building, which still needs work too.

I didn't expect it to take so long to make one building...

>>12272564
I like it.

>>12272564
The white oval looks like a head of sorts. The cottage is almost as unsettling as the birdman, I wouldn't be surprised if it grew chicken legs and walked around while nobody was looking.

>>12272588
Baba Yaga is a 2hu

Better than expected. It would be nice a little more of contrast in the middle.

:D Thanks! That's super motivating. I'm making today a dedicated music-making day.

Still don't have the lyrics together for this song, but I have another one I'm trying to do in English that I'll work on and hopefully get close to finishing. (Miku v2 sucks w/ English tho =\ )

>>12273195
you have my support dude !

>>12272248
Thank you for sharing your art, it's just too cute!

>>12273177
Oh, I also like drawing this kind of thing. But you are better at it!

>>12271935
Just shoop some textures on it. I dunno what app you are using but likely it did come with some tuts and sample objects and textures look at those for ideas. That drawn house would be a fairly easy object to make depending on poly count of course as you will have to make that tower. Id also suggest looking to see if the entine your modeling for can manage smoothing groups, this will help with foolery in the textures to hide low poly objects.

>>12273180
>>12273310
>But you are better at it!
its like totally not true, that's just a gordian bundle of ass-wriggles that go wild in the rage cage when the tablet don't want to go where you want.
thank you for your support

>>12272564
I absolutely adore that style and the colors also look great!

I actually started getting into Blender yesterday, it's really fun even though Blender is really complex.
Creating more complex stuff like you do looks like it takes alot of time and effort. Do you know any good tutorials? I would love to get a little more into this kind of stuff.
Picture is a cute box I made today. This UV mapping stuff is really confusing. I tried using the UV texture I made also as normal map, just to see how that would look.

>>12271955
Holy hell.
I really like this.

>>12271955
This is really good so far

>>12273177
Really cool! Do you have a pixiv/blog/etc?

>>12273333

I don't have any normal maps because I didn't think they'd be necessary. I don't really have any tutorials because I've never followed any outside of these https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-P2o4M-hRgA

The best way is to make seams and unwrap the object in a way that makes sense. i.e.a box like that would only be 3 textures. (the logo side, the blank sides, and the sides with the holes in them.)

took me a while
trying out background stuff
still need some more work
enjoy

>>12274087

I went ahead and wrote a new song today haha. This one is gonna be in engrish, the other will be Japanese but I need to wait on a friend for some lyrics.

No words are in the vsq yet, but I wrote all the lyrics already :)

Here's the song with temp guitar recordings and a bunch of "doo doo doos" for lyrics lol

Shit dude, that sounds normalfag as fuck. How normie can you get?

>school rules everything around me... SCREAM, time to study. Dolla dolla bill, ya'll. Anybody have some studying tunes to suggest? #dying

Ya, thought so. Quoting his tweety. Don't you have bitches to plow at DA CLUB or some other normie shit to do instead?

This is taking a long time. Although now that I think about it. I can create subsequent buildings with the same two textures and and it'll be faster.

>>12274324
your guitar stuff is great

You know, I think it was better without the roof on the egg thing.
by the way, I want to see mr. crow from all sides.
what he's supposed to sell also?

>>12274456

I might get rid of the roof later. I just needed a way to tie it with the rest of the building it looked too out of place.

I don't know what he sells yet. The idea is you retrieve these crystals that have items encased in them and he somehow can break the crystal encasing. So then you can go plant the trees or whatever to restore the land.

Kind of like what dark cloud did but with a lot less dungeon crawling.

>>12274459
Actually it looked good because it was kinda weird.
>he somehow can break the crystal encasing.
crows are the smartest birdies. probably he have a chemistry degree or something

>>12274473

Right. That's why he's a crow. They are very smart.

>>12274497
Actually, crows are the best.

I stopped working on the serious game and found a whole new type of fun. I'm going to try and rebuild a stylized version of the city I lived in when I was in Japan, except you need to outrun all the Yakuza.

>>12276056
The fun comes when every single place you want to hide can be destroyed, and maybe find a gun to help destroy it yourself.

>>12276061
Make the ass bigger

I think I'm going to use this camera view. Here's a basic scene quickly done. You only move left and right and beat up enemies.

The camera would stop moving in areas where you're fighting.

Ignore the texture, I baked it, normally I'll draw the textures and shadows myself. There's no normals in the model or lighting enabled.


>>12274443
Do you have any tutorials you could recommend for texturing? I don't get how to UV map well so I end up with a weird looking UV map that I don't know how to draw over to make the texture.

>>12275417
hard work. stop sitting around bitching about it and look at what you like and learn from it.

Is firealpaca an ok software to start out with if I just wanna doodle? I don't have any artistic background and it looks simple to use.

Usually age does not matter for me in art or drawing. If people eventually work hard, age is irrelevant.
>>12275419
I am in college, but then again age does not matter.

>>12276710
Age matters in mood, not mechanically. I have
to admit that when I see younger guys making
progress faster and surpassing me despite all
the hard work (theoretical because its been
more than a year from the last time I tried
putting some effort in it) I feel pretty disheartened too. I mean, at some point you
accept that you won't become a pro like in your
dreams, but being reminded still hurts even with
that peace of mind.
*worded like shit

what the FUCK happened to your post dude.

No crying, dude!

One day I will contribute to one of these threads.
but not today.

I know that feel...

>>12277469
I really like this, the lines look nice. The lightning (?) effect in the fourth panel is really distracting though.
>>12276451
Anything should be fine if you just want to doodle.

Does Firealpaca have to connect to the internet everytime you want to use it (because of the advertisements)? Is it a decent program? I just want to use a free program and not feel guilty. I already tried MyPaint and didn't like it.

>>12275348

This gives me hope to improve

"what a weird plant."

I guess I didn't stop working on this after all. Although now my day consists modelling or coding and then turning drawing when I get sick of doing work.

Hopefully I can keep it up and finish one background a day like I originally planned. 3D modelling is weird because now all the rooms have thick black bars along the edges. If I can fix it I will make it just for this one area. Tomorrow I'm going to try to do all of the crow merchant store inside.

>>12277956
is that a pic of you?

>>12274422

well, ya got me. took part of the chord progression from a Bob Dylan song, guess that makes me a filthy normie lol.

>>12274446

Thank you :) The final version of the song has a guitar solo at the end, which was super fun to record. I'll release it with a PV on youtube, using art that a friend of mine is drawing.

>>12277778
>>12277865
Cute. freezex is cute.
>>12277929
glad you continue working on that.

>>12277140
I also have that same disheartened feeling when I see younger artist way better than I am. But if a 12 year old or a college guy can spent time study about drawing and practice everyday ,why can't you? I always ask this question myself. Cause I know for a fact that if I don't work harder, despite how young/old they are, I will never catch up. Age simply does not matter, as long as I know how to get back up from the fall.
Please do not give up, every stroke and mark is a progress of your goal. You have no idea how many potential you have until you reach your goal. If anyone rly need help, come by #drawfriend on Rizon. Getting disheartened is not an excuse to give up, it's an opportunity for improvement.
