I am writing a lewd IRC bot in Haskell.

I've been slowly working on a retouched version of this, but I can't get the first half to sound how I want it. I'm probably going to extend the second half because I like it more.

Do you think it would be possible to write a bot that roleplay as an online girlfriend of sorts? I ask because a friend of mine may be interested in something like that...

>>8699718

There is, actually. I stumbled upon one of those bots in some cyberpunk-themed site some time ago. I don't remember the url unfortunately, only that I was searching for AI-related things at the time (particularly the ELIZA program, which emulates a Rogerian psychotherapist).

Drawing comics is very hard. It's complicated to fit story into 4 pictures, even if it's short story. It's my first attempt!

I want to create one of those launch flash games based on /jp/. Maybe someday...

>>8699781
At least make it NOT IN FLASH. Learn HTML5/<canvas> or something, now is a very good time to do so.

Someone made a KS one and I shamefully enjoyed it.

>>8699656
Yes, I am.

why did you make 2 pixiv accounts you big nerdo.

>>8699803

...what.

>>8699772
On that note, do not follow Liefield's school of anathomy.

Or McFarlane thought bubble monologues.

>>8699800
Okay ^^ I played the KS one too, the music is pretty good rumba rumba rumba rumba www

I'm still trying to steal vn scripts so I can make a vn or something, I tried to ask my steamfriends but no one is able to write one or don't want to share 'em. Maybe they don't like my shitty art. Uh... Did I mention steal I mean borrow your stories.

Is it alright if I make a request?

Many artists have 2 accounts to separate R-18 and usual work. Despite my fetishes I'd actually rather like to shy away from ending up on the R-18 ranking most of the time, so I just made another account to separate my BE/megatits/futa stuff from Touhou/Anime/vanilla work.

>>8699870

You shouldn't even make that shit to begin with.

Been trying to draw my own fap material lately.

>>8699963
All I really did was get rid of that gloss at the top of the eyes I used to do, and started changing the color of the eyelashes.

>>8700346
Super busty Reimu is great, but I didn't want her to outshine Yukari or anything, I guess. I don't like to draw her wearing a sarashi, so much bigger and there'd be a lot of sideboob to see.

>>8701102
Her eyes look a bit weird, but good work otherwise.

You can't fap to your own work.
It's prohibited.

It just reminds me of that awful comic /a/ likes. It's Not My Fault I'm Not Popular or whatever. Goddamn I hate that comic.

>>8701332
Actually Tokiko, it's called a manga.

>>8701345
What's the problem with calling a comic a comic? It's not very weeaboo to call manga ``comics," sure, but there is no difference between comics and manga.

Impaling characters with spears...? This is relevant to my interests, please do elaborate.

>>8702401
So cute

>>8702401

Aren't you the same person that does the miku pictures?

>>8702410
Not too long ago he'd draw some waifus from some of the /a/ folks and draw them committing suicide or impaled by a spear of their choice. Now it just seems he tries to draw 34 using references and has probably temporarily stopped causing grief to the folks on /a/.

I just installed the Ivory VST.
Tell me an easy touhou song arranged for piano.

>>8701321
What the fuck is up with this image? The eyes are shitty, the faces are wonky, and don't even get me started on the rest of the proportions. Leave it to a nigger to fuck everything up.

>>8701321
Yukari's arm is like half the size it's supposed to be.
Also, the perspective makes it look like you fucked up Reimu's fingers.
You should see if you can fix that, either by covering it more, or less.

>>8702959
Yes.

>>8703026
>>8703029
There's a lot in that picture that's pretty horrid, and I'm not happy with it at all, but it's not worth fixing at this point. I learn some things and move onto my next disaster.

>>8703518
That looks like shit.

>>8703518
I love your coloring, so bright and fun. Good job.

>>8703522
Why not offer advice on how to make it not shitty instead of acting retarded towards the artist?

Yes, a filthy nigger.

>>8703586
I'm guessing it refers to Drawing on the right side of the brain by Betty Edwards.
Put shortly read the whole thing if all you care for is superficial progress.
If you actually want to get better only do the exercises or, even better, find another book.

>>8701322
yes you can. i do it all the time.

kinda have to too, since there's no porn of many of the characters i like.

>>8703625
It's a great book for beginners, if you do the exercises instead of getting all autistic about the reasoning, which is, you know, what the books tells you to do - it's explicitly stated in the book that if you have a problem with the right/left brain thing just ignore it.

Those last 15 posts or so..
Get out of here.

>>8703859
Get a better font. Spent about eight seconds working out what "srief" was.

>>8702990
Link to said pictures?

A yandere trap.

>>8703518
This one looks pretty good. The only real problem I have with it is that the right leg is kind of strange. The base of the leg near the ass doesn't seem to quite follow the angle of the rest of the leg, perhaps it's simply a problem of depth.

>>8701321
Gotta agree that there are a few things about this one that look pretty strange, although it's visually appealing picture otherwise. Maybe you were doing some experimenting here? The way you drew Reimu's mouth and made her elbow a bit of a toothpick doesn't quite seem like your normal work.

Yukari's arm looks like it has a bit of a foreshortening/perspective problem. I'm not sure how much mathematical precision you put into your art, but this seems like it's been a consistent problem for you so I wonder if you couldn't benefit from trying to work a little more math/geometry into your work.

But this is all just somebody who doesn't know anything about art rambling, so don't take it too seriously.

>>8703970
No clue if they're in the /a/ drawthread archives or but I didn't save any of them, I'm afraid that I didn't like the drawings. A tad too depressing.

>>8699765
That was cute. Please make more.

>>8699962
Nice coloring

>>8701368
where is the silly hat?

>>8701321
Its beautiful. but please fix yukari's arm.

>>8703983
Nice concept.

Also, can someone color this /jp/ touhou?

Anyone here tried any formal art education? Planning to join a handful minor courses.

>>8703518
I love the tits and how shes using them as an arm rest.

was gonna make a bunch of comics of Aya taking pictures of things in Gensokyo Touhou land with the help of her friends.

>>8701950
Thanks man, you're my hero.

>>8703518
>>8702401
>>8701321
You should really practice more on your proportions, perspective and anatomy.
Try to use more (real 3DPD) references as well.

Most of your stuff looks like you spent too much time with rendering to cover up the mistakes of the figure itself.

I do like your style, but it looks too much that you learned from animu instead of real life.
Another thing I do like is that your style is very distinctive.

If anyone recognizes me, I posted here half a year ago and I think I got somewhat better again. Well here's my Youmu. I realize I need to practice a lot on different things but I'm content with me so far.

>>8704645
Not sure how you could draw the huge tits he draws and have real world anatomy. It doesn't seem like hes going for real world anatomy either.
Also mags is getting a lot of shit from people as of last thread. No one says any of this stuff to anyone else but him.
Even if their pics suffer from the same problems you guys says mags pics have. It just seems unfair to the guy. At least he wants to improve unlike most people that get criticized.

>>8704645
>Try to use more (real 3DPD) references as well.

What would you recommend?

>>8705160
i dunno about others, but i like his drawings, especially the black haired mmd chick.

i want more of her.

>>8705160
It's just their way of showing affection.

>>8705160
It'd be nice to have my stuff criticized too, but you know, people Don't criticize bad drawings, they only try to criticize the folks who are popular. For everyone else it's "Go learn anatomy." and nothing else. Pretty bullshit that Mags get all the criticism but nobody else does. I mean, at least say something about the other shit posted.

>>8705268
How does one learn anatomy anyway?
Do I look up pictures of naked people and use them as reference until the proportions become muscle memory? Doesn't make much sense to me because 2D girls have different proportions...

>>8705268
There's usually no point because the errors are so immense you just don't know where to start. At least with a little experienced artist you can simply pinpoint a few problem areas. With someone who literally just made his first drawing, the best advice you can give is "Go study anatomy."

>>8705282
you can probably start with drawing human figures as sets of lines and circles to get the right shape, and only then draw the actual character over it.

eventually you'll be able to draw without those circles, though it takes a pretty long while.

>>8705304
Ok I'm going to try this. Thanks

>>8705286
I guess there's truth to that, but there has to be more a person can do than simply say that. Perhaps say something about an aspect that they will probably have to work on more than the other parts of their work. Or shit I'm sure some of the folks would like a comment that says something about at least a few of the problems in the work, It doesn't even need to be them all. Sometimes it takes a bit more than just telling someone to read a few books to help them improve.

>>8705173
Dunno about him, but I recommend porn. Preferably pics that have nice lighting and shadows and girls with obvious muscles.

>>8705160
Proportion and anatomy aren't dependent on the "real world", but a certain sort of consistency. It's the reason why two arms of a different length are anatomically wrong while a chest of fantastical size necessarily isn't.

>>8705368
>while a chest of fantastical size necessarily isn't
As an addendum, he does tend to utterly ignore gravity like a motherfucker and that does irk me.

>>8705268
stupid nigger, never gonna learn

>>8705380
Where do you need gravity anyway?

>>8705392
tits i guess. they're always floating in air like balloons, unaffected by gravity.

I've been experimenting a lot lately but getting tunnel vision sometimes, and my proportion/perspective fuckups are getting even worse than usual. I've always liked those pointy elbows you see a lot in ero manga, so I've been trying to make the stylistic change along with thinning out my bodies in general...

>>8704645
>>8705160
>>8705268
>>8705368
I did learn more from anime than real life. I think part of it is that I know some things, but when I try poses and angles I don't know well they're executed poorly in a way that makes it stick out pretty badly compared to what I do know fairly well(I'm guessing here, I'm pretty oblivious to my bad shit). I don't mind taking all that criticism, even if most of it's negative. It's not going to stop me from drawing. I actually like it, it makes me want to improve faster. I will start doing some gesture drawing with 3D models, though. I've known I've needed it for a long time, but it was kind of a step I was a little afraid to take for some reason or another.

>>8705380
>>8705433
I -do- draw up those balloon tits on purpose. I'm really fond of them, but I know I really need to stop that, too.

>>8705461
It's not the fact that you're being criticized , it 's the fact that nobody else is getting much at all. It's a bit unfair to the ones that may want some help, or at least a comment.

>>8705461
>balloon tits on purpose. I'm really fond of them, but I know I really need to stop that, too.

>>8705461
>I'm really fond of them, but I know I really need to stop that, too.

Even though I follow the path of the lolicon, I see nothing bad in particular about oversized, gravity-defying breasts. If you like drawing them, then by all means do draw them.

>>8705461
>I -do- draw up those balloon tits on purpose.
Did you misunderstand me? I critized the part where they float in midair, not their size.

>>8703518

Well I hate to admit it but the second guy is right ignore that first asshole though, the important thing is you realize your mistakes, don't makes excuses for them and improve I like you hell do you have a gallery or something i'd like to see more of your work.

it does seem you're getting some trolls for some reason but you seem to be able to tell actual critiques from trolls so it's probably not a problem

>>8705531
Oh sorry, I didn't notice the word "up" there. I need to sleep.

Anyway, I do admit it makes certain aesthetic sense not to make them sag so much. Ignoring gravity is nevertheless still much more jarring in my eyes than the 10 gallon tits alone.

That's a good mindset, I'm glad you're willing to listen and act on your mistakes rather than just stop at where you are.

You clearly have skills and potential, you just need to refine it. Once you learn how the human body works and looks like, it will be easy as hell to deform it to the way that pleases you while still making sense.

If you want to draw mountain sized breasts go for it.

4chan's /ic/ sticky has a good amount of resources to get you started, give it a look.
Avoid posting there though, you'll be insta shat on for animu art.

>>8705793
Stop that. Why are you broken?

>>8706492
Just curious.
Do you use vector layer or just the usual brush/pen for the lineart?

Oh Lord, this thread. So much white knighting and cocksucking, it's like I'm really on DA!

>>8699696
I'm pretty sure this isn't your intention, but the first half made me want to take a shit and fart violently. Low octave tends to do that.

As for the composition itself, I really don't know what could be said about it. There's a distinct lack of rhythm, so it's not really memorable, and some of the breaks flow a bit illogically. Also you should work on your drums.

>>8706492
Drawan but not streaman? I'm disappointed.

>>8706492
If it makes you feel better the only reason I still lurk on this board is to look at your art and bide my time until hollow is translated.

I was once a somebody.

>>8706492

>>8706576
>etc.

>>8706544
>white knighting
but that's... well, nevermind. there's no way anyone really believes that. either way, i don't see why you would say something like that; he's getting his fair share of criticism where appropriate.

>>8706492
is this what you did with that himari pic you were starting the other night? the face/orientation looks similar.

>>8706492
Have you totally given up on the month of small breasts? I wanted to see how far you could take it but...

It's for a 2-bit B/W platformer. I decided to try and go for extreme minimalism. It's animated, also. It's 16*16 because that's how big sprites in Cave Story are. I wanted to know if you could tell he was running and if his run cycle looked OK.

>>8706817

Really, now? Care to explain what aspect of it is 2-bit?

>>8706817

There is black or white and visible or transparent.

>>8706865
You're making yet another shitty So Retro/Deep indie platformer. What's not to be upset about?

>>8706817
That's his run cycle? I thought that was his fighting stance or something where he's bobbing up and down and doing this.

>>8706869

I'm not trying to be retro or deep. The idea is to see if I can avoid color and make animation suffice for it. Don't worry, I'm not indie and I don't think I'm better or cooler than you.

>>8706878
You're gonna have to try a lot harder than that, son. 24 or 32 pixel minimum for more room for detail.

>>8706895

In this scenario, we are going up against both my OCD and my autism. I... I'm scared.

>>8706902
Guess your time is better spent doing something else then. Like writing a shitty VN nobody will ever read.

>>8706871
GO! GO! GO! GO! GO!

>>8706907

You underestimate the market overlap between people who will read a horror VN and people who own a V200 and are willing to read a horror VN on it.

>>8706817
as someone else said, i cant tell he's moving anything but his head even after you've told me. it might be easier to discern if you actually showed the screen instead of just the character. some things are easier to discern in gameplay rather than just looking at a sprite.

Maybe Magister have yet a lot to learn, but at least he's not like other drawfags who spam their drawings anonymously

>>8707008
>at least he's not like other drawfags who spam their drawings anonymously
What? That's usually preferred here, although I don't care either way. It'd be hard for him to hide himself after so many drawings anyways, his style is easy to recognize.

>>8706864
Hilarious.

The shadows are pretty strong for a photoshoot, though. It seems it's a personal thing, but I'll comment that the nipples are a little too cut-out for my taste. I can't really think of anything else to say but that, so good job.

Boredom during car ride led to this one being drawn, anatomy fails all over the place and somewhat wonky lines due to the shitty road, but looks decent still..

>>8707201
>but looks decent still...
On elementary school level, maybe.

>>8707057

I can agree that general discussion of work should not be allowed in these threads because people do not seem to be able to control themselves when they see someone getting attention, but you should leave /v/ language in /v/.

I was criticizing his statement.

It's not completely untrue that discussion other than "It's shit" results in threads getting sent down the shitter, though(note that one-handed criticism is not discussion).

>>8705489
>>8705268
I'm not going to say he's our best artist, so don't jump on me, but if I'm not mistaken he is /jp/'s most prolific artist and has been around for at least a year, so it's sort of a natural consequence that he gets discussed. He sticks around despite verbal abuse and shares frequently, so there's a sense of worth in talking about his work. He won't be gone tomorrow or run off. There's also the fetishism factor, people have a tendency to want to have influence on things that are relevant to their interests.

I'm sorry if you consistently post your art and still don't get criticism. Along the same lines somebody else said, it's easier to point out flaws when the majority is done correctly. I guess if there's a lot to criticize people will expect you to go and compare your work to something decent, thinking the differences are extremely obvious.

>>8707547
That doesn't look very C64-y. Why aren't the pixels double-width, for instance?

>>8707346
It's a matter of balance. If people know that X causes Y and they dislike Y, then stop doing X.

Like I said: don't suck cocks, just criticize the picture/music/whatever.

Your idea of a "balance" is quite skewed.

I'd respond with something more entertaining but you're clearly trying to be irritating since you shoved exactly what I told you doesn't belong here back, so I'll leave it at that and ignore you from here on. Phrases like that belong on /v/, bad fighting game forums filled with teenagers, and World of Warcraft. /jp/ at least likes to pretend it has minimum standards of communication. Or it did, why am I even responding to a particle in the tide of garbage? Right, because OCD/autism/etc. Enjoy your stay I guess.

I forgot to save the underdraft before I went to bed, so I had to redraw it. I had that Kanade picture sitting around uninked, but it's pretty much the same face anyway. I'll be streaming in a bit if you care to watch, the alert at MW is broken right now.

No, I haven't. I'll still be doing majority flat/small breasts for a while, but I really can't resist filling a canvas with tits sometimes.
