artist-lounge

[fallen lance]

aye go for it

[untold crypt]

I mean, you do have experience in pinging mods.

[hollow wraith]

I don't have anything ready though

[pliant falcon]

[fallen lance]

[hollow wraith]

I'm supposed to be asleep

[fallen lance]

whatever you post will make us proud, dont worry

[hollow wraith]

I see

[soft moth]

Riiiiiiiight

[hollow wraith]

well, guess I'll make something tomorrow

[fallen lance]

[formal temple]

oh i didn't realize it was that easy to get the artist role now

[noble pecan]

Slip iz for the weak

[formal temple]

back in my day you had to put effort into making a couple high quality pieces to get the role

[noble pecan]

I am weak now

[formal temple]

or win the art contest

[noble pecan]

Gn

[pliant falcon]

same

[formal temple]

night

[shell cypress]

I guess the standards were lowered to anyone who can draw "something"

[pliant falcon]

it was dark souls of getting role

😂 👌

[formal temple]

deadass

like it took me 4? or 5 months to get it after posting stuff that took actual time anf effort

i should've just waited an extra 5 months

[red venture]

who do you ping for the artist role

[shell cypress]

Thing is I know if I do any artwork it will suck, since I know I don't have the talent for it, and if I somehow tried and got the artist role for my crappy work then there's a problem

[untold crypt]

All of the mods, constantly

[soft moth]

[formal temple]

you don't ping there's an application form somewhere

[red venture]

bruh

[hollow wraith]

What's the criteria?

[red venture]

I HAVE TO APPLY TO BE A ARTIST

[formal temple]

well it used to be

[soft moth]

Actually be good

[formal temple]

like 3? high quality azur lane drawings

[soft moth]

Yes

[formal temple]

but now i guess it's apparently if u can scribble you get it

[soft moth]

Well, it’s still like that

[red venture]

dang they have to be azur lane

[untold crypt]

"""High quality"""

[hollow wraith]

Hmm

[untold crypt]

[soft moth]

You can also win Yostar art contests

[shell cypress]

High quality? You mean use MS Paint?

[formal temple]

i think there had to be at least 1 azur lane drawing for sure

[soft moth]

WTF NO 😂

[formal temple]

don't you use ms paint

[untold crypt]

Nah you scribble on your phone instead

[red venture]

ms pain

[hollow wraith]

Fuck it, I'm using Mario Paint

[red venture]

wtf is mario paint lmao

[shell cypress]

[hollow wraith]

lemme just order an SNES

Oh wait, I'm broke

[red venture]

nah you gotta draw on a etch n sketch

[shell cypress]

[red venture]

[formal temple]

have a seizure with a pencil in your hand and a paper under it and submit it for artist role

[soft moth]

This will piss off both furries AND anti-furries :

[untold crypt]

You think if there was an AL coloring book you could just scribble on it with crayons and get the artist role?

[soft moth]

Fatass furry sailor

[red venture]

bruh

[formal temple]

i can't believe this mans got artist role lmao

[gray glen]

l should've just spam some ms paint "art" to have artist role years ago

[oak star]

Unlike you all, I was rejected in a brutal way by the staff when I tried to get the artist role

[shell cypress]

Join the club

[oak star]

I had to grind like hell

[formal temple]

the grind is real

[soft moth]

You’re implying the rest of us pinks didn’t work just as hard 😂

[formal temple]

LMAOOO

THIS MANS

[shell cypress]

[hollow wraith]

Yeah, making those manjuu art must've been real hard

[untold crypt]

Here's some art guys.

[red venture]

[formal temple]

someone come pick him up

[red venture]

ILL PAY YOUR 1000 FOR THAT SQUARE

[oak star]

Nonono, most of the pinks here never get rejected

[shell cypress]

Apparently one here showed you don't have to work as hard though

[soft moth]

Hmph

[oak star]

I got rejected

And hoo boy

It was a brutal wake up call

[red venture]

mods didnt like your baby art

f

[oak star]

And that's after so many people supported me

[red venture]

[soft moth]

I been drawing for this channel for 9 months lol

[oak star]

So imagine failing people's expectations.

[pliant falcon]

the art that pass requirement to get artist role

[oak star]

That was before I draw babies

[soft moth]

LOL MOKA

[pliant falcon]

wait that's a bit too hard

[untold crypt]

Yeah, your drawing level is on par with a 9 month old child.

[pliant falcon]

need to make it worse

[hollow wraith]

Make it pixellated

[hollow wraith]

like a poorly censored nuke code

just pixellate the tip

[formal temple]

all that I'm saying is that the majority of the people who got the role put in actual effort as in fully drew out and rendered new pieces instead of copy pasting the same base x 100 with 3 pixels changed between each version

so yes the majority did work hard

[soft moth]

I draw other stuff too...

[formal temple]

i've seen the other stuff lmao

[pliant falcon]

can we get mods to explain these nonsense?

[soft moth]

My manjuus are just a trademark, like Zilf’s babies and Janny’s Seattle

[untold crypt]

Let's see one of your other things, then.

[red venture]

@dense mural can i have artist role pls/ doing a kishiyo study

[formal temple]

nah you can just search his name and then search for photos lmao

[soft moth]

One of them was so inappropriate mods won’t let me upload them

[untold crypt]

Don't ping me.

[soft moth]

[shell cypress]

[hollow wraith]

I apologize

[untold crypt]

sad sad sad sad sad

[red venture]

whis is that picture so dim

[shell cypress]

It's like she's looking at walking garbage while it speaks to her

[pliant falcon]

[red venture]

[hollow wraith]

What software do you use?

[red venture]

who

[hollow wraith]

I'm looking for more free software to use

[shell cypress]

I think I now know how he got the role

[soft moth]

Yostar is the greatest invention since the wheel and maybe the computer

[red venture]

yostar invented st lewdis

[gray glen]

is this guy for real?

[soft moth]

[formal temple]

i'm not drunk enough for this and i'm on my work shift sad vibes

[red venture]

numbr one yostar is hard simping right now

[empty niche]

yo are there no standards now? can i get the role too?

[gray glen]

sure

[formal temple]

yeah you might as well apply

[gray glen]

just spam your art

[untold crypt]

Look at that subtle off-yellow coloring, the tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a head plume....

[red venture]

the mods will never notice me

[soft moth]

[empty niche]

just bother them enough

should work

[shell cypress]

Keep ping them until they respond I guess

[empty niche]

just ping all mods

[shell cypress]

Oh God no

[soft moth]

[shell cypress]

Wait

[hollow wraith]

What about the staff?

[empty niche]

Maine here is a proof enough that it works

[hollow wraith]

Is that a requirement too?

[empty niche]

ping staff too of course

[shell cypress]

The staff might kill us for that one

[hollow wraith]

Sounds fun

[shut frigate]

fight the developers for supremacy

[fallen lance]

the real reason he got the role

suck the mods dick enough and you can get anything

[untold crypt]

Cocksucking yostar, man I'd give him the role for a blowie too smh

[red venture]

[shell cypress]

[gray glen]

[formal temple]

ok lads

do i add my kraken cat ear headset

or keep the cool earrings

[soft moth]

[fallen lance]

read that as karen cat ear headset

[formal temple]

i guess i should prob draw it on and then decide from there

[fallen lance]

i think if you've drawn the earrings already there isnt much reason to cover them with a headset but thats just my take

[formal temple]

yeah that's why i'm debating whether or not i should add it cause on one hand i like the earrings but on the other hand everyone who knows me just associates me with the headset lmao

[sullen arrow]

Im not even mad

that manjuu guy got the pink name

even tho i got rejected, but for not having azur lane art

[halcyon herald]

@formal temple give her too many glasses

[formal temple]

hm?

[soft moth]

Yostar is forever in my heart

[empty niche]

i'd at least like an explanation for why Maine got the role

[soft moth]

[sullen arrow]

but @soft moth bruh, no need to rub it in ppls faces, u urself should know how ur art is compared to the other ppl's in the server with pink name

[halcyon herald]

Too many glasses she cant wear them all

[sullen arrow]

its nice u got the role, just dont brag

[soft moth]

I was having fun with old animosities lol

And maybe heal them

[halcyon herald]

What

[fallen lance]

what

[empty niche]

and you do that by bragging... clap

[sullen arrow]

i dunno whatcha talking about

but bragging wont get you anywhere

in any situation lol

well, there are situation that its nice to do it a little

but not here

with other ppl that are not ur, uh, animosities

[halcyon herald]

We jus chillin wym about old animosities

Also what animosities mean i failed 7th grade

[sullen arrow]

animosities are "enemies" but not rly

[untold crypt]

This guy sees everything as a war or in terms of political diplomacy. There is no making up or being friendly; only fully bending to his demands and worldview.

You are all his enemies.

In no way what you’re doing is going to heal wounds

And he wants you to capitulate to him.

[sullen arrow]

[untold crypt]

He doesn't want to heal wounds unless it's on his terms.

[halcyon herald]

O

[untold crypt]

you’re kind of just rubbing the fact that you got pink in everyone’s faces

[halcyon herald]

Mocha u want a cheese pizza

[untold crypt]

nada

[sullen arrow]

can i instead have it

[untold crypt]

of course the difference is that they worked for their role and you kind of scribbled for it

sooo

[halcyon herald]

Ok

[untold crypt]

He doesn't realize that, he has no capacity for an inner monologue.

It's pretty clear by the way he acts.

Towards everyone.

[halcyon herald]

I have enough moneyb

For 2 pizzas

Thats a lot of dough

Literaly

Just found 75 dollars in 5 dollar bills

[sullen arrow]

well, yeah, but everyone's got their quirks

also bag dont eat urself to death

[halcyon herald]

Wym

Smh

I am god i will eat however many cheese pizzas i want

I am god until i get diabetes

[fallen lance]

yo bag you wanna split some with me

[halcyon herald]

Sure

[fallen lance]

bet

[untold crypt]

His "quirk" is being rude and uncaring to everyone else. He sees people as pawns or things to win, as "diplomatic allies", not as friends.

[sullen arrow]

too much cheese is nauseating, i hope u dont turn all of that money into 4 cheese pizzas lulz

[sullen arrow]

[halcyon herald]

About 7 dollars

[soft moth]

Why do I see an American dollar?

[fallen lance]

uh oh, cancuck alert

[sullen arrow]

100 dollars, 10 euros, and whats behind the dollar

[halcyon herald]

5 cad

Aka 2 quid

[red venture]

bruh why does europe money look like that

[sullen arrow]

enlighten me

for i am confused

[red venture]

thats so werid

[sullen arrow]

well we got jesus and animals in our money

[halcyon herald]

[halcyon herald]

Canuck and euro moni coloured

So u can ez find

Dont have 2 read

[red venture]

[halcyon herald]

[empty niche]

color > colour

[halcyon herald]

You dare question mighty overlord prince phillip?

[sullen arrow]

cor

[pliant falcon]

u guys changes o to ou?

might as well calls it coulour

[empty niche]

saying armour should be banned

[sullen arrow]

i honestly never knew that color/colour were murica/british

[halcyon herald]

Armour

Honour

Neighbour

At this point its reflex

[untold crypt]

Oui mate I'm Bri'ish we say with an ou

[halcyon herald]

I didnt choose to be briish

[sullen arrow]

i just spelled color cuz its easier than putting an U

[halcyon herald]

Prince phillip took my soul and sold it for a £3 Tesco Meal Deal and a pack of Walker's Crispy Mumbly Lovely Jobily Munchy Bits

[shell cypress]

In America we took out the U because we wanted to be free from U

[formal temple]

i have to make christmasy covid graphics for work lmaoooo

and i made one example and they're like

''yeah we like it!! can u also add christmas lights tho?''

like bruh idk if it's supposed to be that cheerful but sure

[sullen arrow]

draw covid virus glowing like christmas light]

[pliant falcon]

:kekw

[sullen arrow]

or covid-shaped christmas balls

[formal temple]

LMAO well it's not exactly that

it's like the covid safety precaution shit

like this is what i sent in

and they're like y e s but actually yeah add lights

[sullen arrow]

perhaps make the shading not with black

[formal temple]

and i'm here like bruh where do you want me to put lights

there's no roomo

[sullen arrow]

more like a saturated dark green

[formal temple]

the shading isn't with black

it's a dark green

[sullen arrow]

whot

[formal temple]

it's because it's against a blue background lol

[sullen arrow]

perhaps its blending too much with the blue behind

the shading

yeah

[formal temple]

yeah the shading doesn't matter it's a quick government graphic they don't care too much about that

it's something people are going to scroll past within a second so attention to detail doesn't matter much

[sullen arrow]

prolly, yeah

[shell cypress]

Try using red if that's the case and with a green background maybe?

[formal temple]

it's government you're not allowed to deviate from colour palettes

it's not the same as art where you can use whatever colour you feel like in graphic design there's usually specific palettes you have to stick with for companies for their branding

[soft moth]

[red venture]

use complitmentary colors or something

[formal temple]

if you start adding in random colours to their palette or removing the signature colours it's confusing

[red venture]

i dont think the green is working well with the blue

[formal temple]

i can only use blue, green white and black lol

those are the colours of the campaign

[red venture]

bruh

[formal temple]

it's been the colours since last year

i can't just jump in and be like hey you guys know that campaign you started with this palette? people on the internet are telling me to change them mid campaign lmao

[red venture]

[shell cypress]

Yeah change your colour palette

[formal temple]

yeah no i'd rather keep my paying job thanks

[shell cypress]

Only joking

[formal temple]

but nah like when you're working graphics for government you don't get to choose aesthetics most of the work we do is ugly as fuck cause we don't get to do our own stuff majority of the time

it's usually people from other departments that know nothing about art that are like hey use these colour palettes and add this

[shell cypress]

Well that sucks

[formal temple]

and you're just forced to do it and try to make it work cause at the end of the day they're the ones paying you and giving you benefits lol

if you're doing freelance design it's different though

or doing design for a place that doesn't force you to do their vision

[shell cypress]

It's like that one video where on guy draws something on another guy's back, and they draw something on a nother guys back, and the last guy draws what was supposed to be what the first guy drew

[formal temple]

i mean kindaaa but it's more like being given a broad idea designing it in a way that actually looks god

good* and then having them revise it 100 times till it looks like shit in the end

[shell cypress]

[formal temple]

it just b that way sadly

but still a fun job so aye

[shell cypress]

Hey as long as you enjoy it

[formal temple]

everything is so formal and templated that i can just listen to music or documentaries and go braindead for 8 hours

[shell cypress]

Ah yes, autopilot

[red venture]

your government needs a art department smh

this color scheme should of not been approved

[formal temple]

we have an art department but we had no say in the colours

again, higher ups tell us what they want and we need to work with it

we're not allowed to change things just cause we don't like it lol

[warm ingot]

Tfw wake up and read chat logs

Wilin in here

[formal temple]

everyone was #brutallyhonest this AM

[warm ingot]

Hell yeah

[formal temple]

no regrats

[sullen arrow]

i mean, i just woke up at 4pm after coming back from night shift

and i had to see that shit

[warm ingot]

Lol

[formal temple]

we all had to. we were all in it together

most active the lounge has been in a while lmao

[sullen arrow]

i think there werent enough ppl online to put their thought into it

[formal temple]

i think most if not all would have agreed with what was being said

[warm ingot]

I def did, i think they just

Hit accept on all of the apps without looking at anything

[sullen arrow]

as much as i try to be nice with everyone, it is annoying seeing that guy

[formal temple]

maybe they did it as a christmas present just accepted everyone lmao

[warm ingot]

Well, maybe they also fixed dashboard so now i can drink the pepto name color

[formal temple]

mmm p i nk

[warm ingot]

[formal temple]

mm sent my stuff in time to get back to my drawing

[soft moth]

Lol Aku

[sullen arrow]

but he aint wrong

[warm ingot]

He absolutely isn't

[sullen arrow]

also
16/12

uhm no

its typical every artist in art lounge lol

not just him

its as i said before dude

i think u dont realize the difference in ur manjuus to the other ppl with pink names

[soft moth]

This was honestly the most active this channel got in months

[formal temple]

which probably says something

[sullen arrow]

probably because ppl who were taking this for months got their baloons bursted when u bragged about getting pink name

[soft moth]

Moka said something I never gave thought to until now which I should

[sullen arrow]

a toilet can only hold so much shit before overflowing

[pliant falcon]

calm down guys

i mean just think about it

mods is so tired of all this clown bullshit they just give pink role to make him shut up

[fallen lance]

singlehandedly crashed the value of the pink name

[formal temple]

it's just a tad offensive to the people who had to actually prove themselves still but

[formal temple]

def agree with this one

also added the headset

i think i need to fix the face but ig i'll do that after i line background

[pliant falcon]

i mean what's other possibility

[formal temple]

the simping got through to em

[pliant falcon]

so yeah instead of jealous, people should instead feel pity

[warm ingot]

Lmao

Also i remember when that headphone design first came out

[pliant falcon]

the headphone is cute

[warm ingot]

Then instantly copied by a lot of knockoffs

[pliant falcon]

but it's kinda weird

[fallen lance]

oh those headphones are cute

[pliant falcon]

the audio quality is average at best

we just paid for model

[warm ingot]

Its more fashion

Yeah

[pliant falcon]

and idk why there's a speaker in that cat ear

[formal temple]

wait do you have the cheap ones or the actual quality ones

cause there's two versions of the headset

the shitty one and then the actual decent one

[warm ingot]

Iirc, the original ones were from some ancient webcomic i think called 'fish eye'?

[pliant falcon]

it's still good, but i think with the pricetag it doesn't justify the quality

[formal temple]

https://www.razer.com/gaming-headsets/Razer-Kraken-Kitty/RZ04-02980200-R3M1
cause this is the pair and the sound quality and everything is pretty good

[pliant falcon]

it's mostly for fashion

[warm ingot]

Also i dont have em, but i remember wanting them for a bit back then

[formal temple]

sound quality is better than my beats which were more expensive

[warm ingot]

Beats are actual meme

[formal temple]

though i don't have this specific model i have the original rose quartz kraken+cat ear attachment

[pliant falcon]

oh i thought u talking about axent wear

[formal temple]

nono my entire setup is razer

[pliant falcon]

idk about the razer one

[formal temple]

but the sound quality and mic quality on the razer one is really good

[warm ingot]

https://www.deviantart.com/yuumei/gallery/51518646/axent-wear-cat-ear-headphones

[formal temple]

i want the new kitty set but it's like 100$ more just for rgb ears.. LMAO

oh those are hideous wtf

[warm ingot]

They kinda started the whole thing lmao

No idea about quality on them though

But razer is p good stuff

[fallen lance]

i have a 4 year old of krakens and its good shit

the bass is phenomenal

[formal temple]

i've spent like 400? dollars on my razer setup and i have zero regrets

[fallen lance]

shame the software sucks ass

[warm ingot]

I replaced my old razer headset with a v moda xs couple years ago

[formal temple]

When I was building my pc a few years back I wanted pink peripherals and razer was the only quality company that had them

[warm ingot]

But i still use a razer m+kb

[formal temple]

So I’m sticking with em

[halcyon herald]

Man everything u have is pink

Even discord

[formal temple]

My entire apartment is pink and white actually

Like deadass everything I own

[halcyon herald]

wow

[formal temple]

Clothes to towels to bedsheets to shoe mats to kitchenware

Everything lmao

I even have an alcohol shelf that’s strictly pink items

[halcyon herald]

R ur pots pink too

[formal temple]

I have a pink pan but that’s it the rest is lagostina or whatever so just regular silver

[warm ingot]

Discord icon: pink

[halcyon herald]

Damn ite

[formal temple]

i'd send pics of my apartment but it's not art

wait actually

i'll just overlay them on top of my drawing

for i n sp o

[halcyon herald]

[north sky]

Wait so has the standard of art for the art role changed

[formal temple]

yes

[pliant falcon]

just call it "my art station"

[north sky]

Damn ok yea im reading thru all the messages now

[sullen arrow]

there's a game designer server with a "workspace" channel

[fallen lance]

holy shit you werent lying

[sullen arrow]

for posting ur workplace

[red venture]

we call them battle stations

[sullen arrow]

looks like my apartment when i was living alone

[formal temple]

pink pan and coffee thing

[shell cypress]

[halcyon herald]

Damn u aint wrong

[sullen arrow]

but cleaner

and prettier

[halcyon herald]

Also ur bed is so tall

[formal temple]

if my setup wasn't super dirty i'd show my desk too

yeah my desk is like4? ft tall

i have to jump to get on it

or use the stool

[halcyon herald]

???!??

[sullen arrow]

[warm ingot]

P ink

[sullen arrow]

are u short or is the desk too tall

[warm ingot]

I remember having a bed that tall

[formal temple]

i'm 5'4 the bed is just really big

[sullen arrow]

4ft doesnt seem tall

[warm ingot]

It was such a pain to get on

[sullen arrow]

121cm

looks like an ideal height for me

[formal temple]

it's cause the mattress was like a foot and a half tall? and then the actual frame was like 2 and a half feet tall so combined it's LORGE

but i have zero regrets my bedroom is the best room in my apartment and when i'm not on my pc i'm vibing in it lmao

[warm ingot]

Ye, mine had those dressers underneath

[halcyon herald]

My bed used to be a bed frame on the ground

[sullen arrow]

i didnt even have a desk in my apartment

[formal temple]

mine doesn't have dressers but i bought storage units to store some drawings and paintings and whatever under my bed

[sullen arrow]

it was even smaller

i had to bring a small desk and put infront of my bed to be able to use notebook

[warm ingot]

Im mattress on a box thing now

[sullen arrow]

but i loved how everything was so close to eachother

[warm ingot]

Perfect for collapsing into

[sullen arrow]

id just stretch my arm and i could reach my sink and fridge

[warm ingot]

If i didn't have my wfh set up in the way atleast

[sullen arrow]

the issue

was that ppl could literally listen to me in the bathroom when i forgot to mute

but

UwU's apartment

looks rly neat

[halcyon herald]

How do u mute ur bathroom

[sullen arrow]

[sullen arrow]

my mic, not the bathroom

[halcyon herald]

Oh

[formal temple]

my apartment is not neat atm though it got super bad cause i was working 50hrs and then also doing 40-60 hours of school weekly

so i didn't have time to upkeep

[sullen arrow]

oof

[formal temple]

but now i have 4 weeks off from school so gonna tidy up

[sullen arrow]

cleaning

the worst part

[formal temple]

i actually enjoy cleaning for the most part

[sullen arrow]

[formal temple]

i don't like picking stuff up cause the bending down and getting up makes my heart act funny

[halcyon herald]

Spitting

[formal temple]

but washing stuff and all that is 10/10 for me

[halcyon herald]

Fax

[sullen arrow]

my issue

is with sweeping the floor

[halcyon herald]

I like it wehn i use chmiceacls to washt he bathroom

[sullen arrow]

and brushing stuff

[formal temple]

^^^

[sullen arrow]

[sullen arrow]

i almost choked to death once i did tis

[formal temple]

just throw toilet bowlc leaner in the toilet baking soda in the bath wait ga bit

sparkly

[sullen arrow]

since there were no air escape

and i turned on the hot water in the shower to ease the cleaning

with the bleach on floor

the chloride went up

[halcyon herald]

[formal temple]

exactly^

life hax

[warm ingot]

I like cold weather, i get to wear all the cool clothes

[halcyon herald]

Also is there superstore in manitova

[sullen arrow]

i like cold too
but cold here only lasts for a week before we start melting

[halcyon herald]

Mom wants me to go to university in eastern canada so i am arguing that it too cold

[sullen arrow]

all i know

is that i need a reserve drawing glove

[soft moth]

I’m opposite of you

@untold crypt Can I DM you?

[sullen arrow]

mine is slowly unmaking itself

[soft moth]

California is like Australia lol

It NEVER snows here

And it’s like summer all year

[sullen arrow]

sounds like brazil

[shell cypress]

You won't survive one day in Florida my good sir. It's kind of like Brazil lite

[sullen arrow]

florida cant be that bad

at least im used to 40ºC+ in here

[shell cypress]

Bruh, I live there

[north sky]

Floridas got that wet hot air

Nasty lol

[sullen arrow]

its cuz of the coastline

[formal temple]

aight guys does the perspective for the desk look about right?

[shell cypress]

The seasons we have are, hot, pollen, love bugs, and hurricanes

[sullen arrow]

seems fine to me

[formal temple]

my brain is numb and it feels like something is off

[sullen arrow]

looks like here, but exchange hurricanes with floods

[olive kernel]

angle looks fine....legs look kinda off though

[halcyon herald]

ur knee

do the

[formal temple]

yeah leg angle is screwed but the part that doesn't look right is covered by the desk anyways

so it's not worth fixing

like once the desk is done basically only the feet will be visible

[warm ingot]

Lmao

[halcyon herald]

feet

[formal temple]

f e et

[warm ingot]

🦶

[olive kernel]

lol yea the feet will look off lol

[formal temple]

oh well

[warm ingot]

I think tje far end of the table could be more level but i also dont know

[shell cypress]

Feet is just as lewd as handholding

[formal temple]

oh yeah it's just fastly sketches so the actual thing isn't leveled

mostly just talking perspective wise

[olive kernel]

[warm ingot]

Er, level with the front

[formal temple]

front?

[warm ingot]

Like the far end is raised too high a little

[formal temple]

like this?

cause the front is curved

[olive kernel]

or just hide the leg completely lol

[formal temple]

it's like one of these

so the front isn't going to be level if that's what you meant

[halcyon herald]

i woudlnt be surprised that was your room

look gouche

[olive kernel]

[formal temple]

nahh for the desk i'm using other peoples rooms for inspo since mine looks pretty ghetto until i move

[halcyon herald]

ah

[formal temple]

same with the chair like my chair irl is black and white but in the pic it'll be pink n white

[formal temple]

can't buy the good stuff until i move

yeah so you're straightening the curbe

[warm ingot]

The desk curve is fine

[formal temple]

curve* oops

[warm ingot]

Im on my phone

[formal temple]

OH

you mean shorten it down?

[sullen arrow]

can i have some help too

i got no idea what color to put in those

like, base color

[warm ingot]

Uhhh i guess yeah, i think the far end was raised too in relation to the screen front but im also baby so idk

[formal temple]

like this?

[warm ingot]

Yeah

[formal temple]

aight aight yeah that does look better

only issue is now i gotta figure out how to add in the keyboard since there's not much room

[warm ingot]

Wym

[olive kernel]

also here

[sullen arrow]

i dont know what color to put there to make it blend nicely

its a medieval fantasy setting

but

[formal temple]

oh no i know what's wrong and how to fix it it's just not really worth redoing for me

[sullen arrow]

i dont feel like using brown pants

[formal temple]

but thanks

[olive kernel]

ah ok

[warm ingot]

Oh, well im fanart so i just look at the original tbh but i guess consider materials

[sullen arrow]

or her armband could be purple, but it doesnt blend with the rest of her clothes

its all leather as i see it

[warm ingot]

Hm

[formal temple]

well you could just make the pants or shorts a darker shade of purple

like brown would've probably worked best for the pants but if you don't want to go with brown

[halcyon herald]

u could make the wrist

silver

[warm ingot]

Yeah, or also some black with slight red

[sullen arrow]

lemme try brown pants to see at least how it looks

[minor verge]

IBUKIIIIIIII

[warm ingot]

[sullen arrow]

dunno if it works

[warm ingot]

Thats not bad

[halcyon herald]

make sure u check ur value

and stuff

™️

[sullen arrow]

black with a tint of red

i think its also brown

its weird to pick a color value for brown

but i think this red one looks better

[warm ingot]

Nice

[halcyon herald]

ye

[warm ingot]

For the sleeve thing i think the purple would be fine

Did you hand draw those chains

[sullen arrow]

yep

[warm ingot]

King

I just got some brushes off deviantart lmao

[sullen arrow]

i dunno about this, doesnt blend with the rest

[warm ingot]

Maybe a lighter purple

Like the ones on those stockings

[sullen arrow]

oh those arent stockings

[warm ingot]

Or socks i guess

[sullen arrow]

picked same color

[sullen arrow]

its her actual leg

[halcyon herald]

try silver?

[sullen arrow]

(too lazy to search the finished picture)

[warm ingot]

O, i forgot she is some kind of frsnkensteiney thing

[sullen arrow]

it could work if i made it metal

using the color of her shoulder pads

[olive kernel]

wip

time to struggle again to finish

[sullen arrow]

ganbare

i rly like the composition

[olive kernel]

thanks hopefully it turns out well

[red venture]

ayee this is poggers

[formal temple]

looks amazing so far

[halcyon herald]

Looking good maye

[grim beacon]

Any advice for trying to draw faces with a mouse?

[fallen lance]

dont

lol

if you're using medibang just zoom in and go really slow

[warm ingot]

Suffer

[fallen lance]

usually it'll smooth out itself as you go along

[grim beacon]

man and I thought it was bad when I used to draw by hand
jfc my hand is numb

[fallen lance]

[olive kernel]

i mean its possible with vectors to draw with a mouse it might take longer though

[red venture]

get a tablet what are you doing son

[grim beacon]

[red venture]

[grim beacon]

ending myself thats what

[red venture]

same

[grim beacon]

making a Val for my bunnies
so I need to make the plane
then both girls
and the plane has been pretty alright but idk how to shade to well so I might just yolo with the colors
but ummmm, I've never actually draw girls, only power rangers So I actually have no damn idea on how to do faces to well so I have like all of the art I have open for reference

Only on paper too
and I'm keeping my promise by going to hell for this

Cause REM wont give us Nitro

[halcyon herald]

What is a val

Like that russian assault rifle

[grim beacon]

thats a Fal

[halcyon herald]

The fal's belgian

[grim beacon]

Achai D3A1 Val
Japanese dive bomber

[halcyon herald]

Ew

[grim beacon]

[halcyon herald]

Imagine having fixed landing gea4

[grim beacon]

they are cute as hell bro

it was either a Val or a Kate

But kates have a 3 man crew

[fallen lance]

stfu tea lmfao

[halcyon herald]

I aint never heard a man call a plane cute

[grim beacon]

and there are only 2 for Vals

[halcyon herald]

Idk i believe in swordfish supremacy

[grim beacon]

Soryu is the pilot and Hiryu has the bomb sights

[halcyon herald]

Ok

[formal temple]

keyboard h e l l

i eat oreo icecream sandwich to motivate

[grim beacon]

I play sad music way to loud and cry helps me deal with these dam pixels

[pliant falcon]

imo if u using mouse, just do pixel art

it's easier

[formal temple]

i mean i drew with a mouse for years

[pliant falcon]

and actually good for the long run

[formal temple]

it's just not worth it

[pliant falcon]

that

[formal temple]

it gave me severe carpal tunnel

[pliant falcon]

i used to draw with mouse, until i realized it's not even worth it

i'm drawing my pixel art with mouse

[formal temple]

like this pic was done with a mouse

so is most of my stuff from last year

it just takes double/triple the time and feels absolutely awful on the hand/wrist

[pliant falcon]

yeah and carpal tunnel syndrome is not a joke

[warm ingot]

a small tablet is like, $40

[fallen lance]

[warm ingot]

i think it's worth the investment if you plan on doing more art

[formal temple]

^

[fallen lance]

draws better than me with a mouse lmfao

[pliant falcon]

@trim agate used to draw with phone

what a madlad

[fallen lance]

but yeah drawing pads are fucking great @grim beacon if you're gonna do more you should really consider buying one

[grim beacon]

Rem you know what I'm here for

[fallen lance]

do it for me

[formal temple]

hm do i draw myself drinking an energy drink

or just pretend the other arm doesn't exist

[warm ingot]

hmm

[formal temple]

everyone who knows me irl and online knows my energy drink addiction

[warm ingot]

its giving me some real "🤔" energy

[formal temple]

so i feel like it fits

LMAOO

i mean the face is going to be changed later cause i actually hate it

so maybe it'll give a bit less of that energy and instead give depressed artist who craves the sweet embrace of death enegry

[warm ingot]

lmao

[formal temple]

god drawing clothing wrinkles is torture

[warm ingot]

atleast its nice to look at

[formal temple]

i'm hoping my second year courses are going to go over clothing textures and all that

i know for architecture you learn how to draw fabrics

so hoping fine arts will also have a class that at least covers it in some way cause oof

[warm ingot]

i imagine they should

[formal temple]

aight back to break then i finish shift then ig i figure out how to draw the arm

then back tot he torture of drawing keyboard

[gray glen]

F me and my unnecessarily complicated hair syndrome

[formal temple]

i feel that

[gray glen]

[warm ingot]

making up outfits is hard

[red venture]

oh my god bruh you did that with a MOUSE, why are you torturing yourself

[gray glen]

wait

what the fuck

[formal temple]

yeah i used a mouse until around summer of this year

[gray glen]

[formal temple]

it would take like 15+ hours for one pic

which is why i never drew backgrounds

[gray glen]

you draw that with mouse?

you fucking madlad

[red venture]

almost done

[formal temple]

yeah it was a super complicated process but i made it work lmao

[gray glen]

damn son looks dope af

[formal temple]

ayee looks great so far looks super close to the original

[warm ingot]

nice

[red venture]

[warm ingot]

also wtf how did I miss that mouse drawing

wild

[formal temple]

lmao i thought everyone knew i used a mouse

[warm ingot]

well, i did come here more recently i guess

[formal temple]

ahh that explains it

[warm ingot]

maybe like oct or nov or something

[shell cypress]

Going to say it looks like she was a character design straight out of a manga character design page. Nicely done

[formal temple]

this was another mouse one but i didn't feel like fully rendering it out like the other one

so it's kinda bland compared to it

[warm ingot]

[formal temple]

took a solid like 3 years to get to a point where i was confident showing my work with a mouse though

everything prior was trash tier

[warm ingot]

iron patience and a deft hand

[formal temple]

patience def cause for all shading and everything i had to line it with the curve tool fill it in merge it done to another layer then use like 4 diff tools to blend it out

rinse and repeat for all shading

every piece had over 100 layers

[warm ingot]

jesus

well, when i started i had like 100some layers too

[formal temple]

i still use quite a bit of layers but not nearly as much

tho my valiant drawing was like 200 layers LMAO

but that's just cause i'm not as confident drawing digitally so i just abuse the hell out of layers so i can go back and fix mistakes

traditionally for some reason i'm not as scared to screw up idek

[warm ingot]

yeah thats pretty much 90% of the reason why i use layers

"I'm probably gonna fuck this one part up and fix it later"

[formal temple]

yep

that's why all my lineart is on diff layers as well

every separate part is a separate layer lmao

[warm ingot]

ive atleast started putting lines on one layer, unless i got some stuff going on like transparent clothes or w/e

i just cheat and put lines under those in a separate layer with lower opacity

[formal temple]

oh i hate my linework and am never confident with it so i need it to be seperated

[warm ingot]

i used to hate lining, but i'm liking it more now

all the dumb complex line art paid off i guess lmao

[formal temple]

lmao i mean i actually do enjoy lining i'm just bad at it

aight keyboard done so guess i'll force myself to do arm now

[warm ingot]

💪

[sturdy radish]

Only having a mouse to play with is the main reason I can't do digital art beyond a certain resolution

[warm ingot]

christmas is upon us

[red venture]

https://app.magmastudio.io/1tqoi745

do you want to join my group drawing?

[grim beacon]

[formal temple]

mm drimk

[pliant falcon]

it's all vampire

[north sky]

Always has been

[halcyon herald]

Boomer drnk

[grim beacon]

ok thats enough planes for today
time to do bunnies and cry

[fallen lance]

[pliant falcon]

ok here's how my game project starts

mc and her friend(the cat girl) leaving her village and traveling to the capital city to become a hunter(it's like a group of explorers). too bad nobody want to accept them as guild member.

then she's approached by the merchant (a pig girl) from certain guild, that she can help them with guild problem. But first they need to help the merchant girl.

So basically the guild treating this merchant girl unfairly, and she can't do anything about it because her family got a debt from this guild, and she afraid that her 2 little sister will get into trouble if she didn't obey the guild.

blablabla some plot text here i haven't thought of

at the end, she left guild and join mc making their own guild.

i need some polish/feedback/something especially why the merchant girl need to stay at that bad guild. and what problem they will get if they leave the guild. and how the mc resolves the problem.

incase people forgot how the character looks like it's the top one, mc, cat girl, pig girl

i'm thinking that the mc send pig girl's little sis to be taken care by mc's mom at the village

😂

[fallen lance]

especially why the merchant girl need to stay at that bad guild.
you could have it be her only source of income to support her family?

[pliant falcon]

well that works, but isn't that mean she can just leave and find another guild since like.. day 1

[fallen lance]

hm

could be a family run guild that she's forced to be in

[pliant falcon]

i'll take that as list of feedback

gonna collect some and pick whichever sounds best

[fallen lance]

[pliant falcon]

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe45Llq-vOuIX3dzWorzKEPBOXazWTxS0Ftm6fxLPXI74N_3g/viewform?usp=sf_link

o btw i'm still opening a form to add your own character for my game project. (maybe, if i feel like it, or it suits the world setting)

[grim beacon]

could have it be an honor thing

where she feels she cant actually leave due to her culture or like a promise

[pliant falcon]

oh i forgot to mention the merchant girl is poor

and maybe orphan

also she has 2 little sis, reference for 3 little pig story.. you know, that straw house, wood house thing

[fallen lance]

have the guild take her little sisters captive as some sort of recompense for a debt, and she has to work for them to pay off the debt

[pliant falcon]

well that works, but it kinda too dark

or maybe i just have bad thought for that

also that sounds like r18 doujin material

[fallen lance]

aye

[pliant falcon]

keep it PG13 pls

[sullen arrow]

sry moka, but i cant think of this setting without having lewd thoughts

[pliant falcon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/752268174296219658.png?v=1

make it less obvious

[sullen arrow]

poor
orphan
2 little sisters
Oh boy its a full plate for not-very-friendly lood

[fallen lance]

i mean tbh sounds kinda like recettear

[sullen arrow]

nah, recettear she has no sisters

[pliant falcon]

isnt recettear just a not responsible dad leaving her daughter with debt

[sullen arrow]

yup

[pliant falcon]

like bruh

[fallen lance]

pretty much

[pliant falcon]

i want to make her having debt and the guild just "paid" her debt so she forced to work in that guild

[sullen arrow]

God damnit this is getting even more lewder

[pliant falcon]

no

it's an adventurer guild

[sullen arrow]

"You owe me so u gotta do whatever i say" - Random Ugly bastard

[pliant falcon]

yeah no

the guild saw her as profittable cuz she have artifact that seemingly useless but she can calculate any item's price

[untold crypt]

[pliant falcon]

well i mean it's basically useless

[sullen arrow]

so she's an accountant?

[pliant falcon]

but since the guild is collecting stuff to sell, they know what good stuff to sell

she's adventurer

also i need name for her, calling her pig girl sounds sad

[sullen arrow]

wait guilds in ur world are smol

not big companies

[pliant falcon]

yep

[sullen arrow]

if they were big they would leave piggy to accountant work while other ppl bring stuff to her to evaluate

but since its smol

makes sense

[pliant falcon]

imagine it like..
she just forced to tag along in dangerous ruins and guild member be like
"hey what's this thing price?"

[sullen arrow]

yeahhh

uh

even as small

[pliant falcon]

and ofc she didn't get any share

[sullen arrow]

might as well leave her at base

do guilds have a small building for them or something

or are they like hobos

[pliant falcon]

hobos 😂

[sullen arrow]

i see

[pliant falcon]

no no

i'm laughing at the hobo word

they have their own house, not too big, but atleast it's a house

and the girl not even allowed to stay at the house

[sullen arrow]

so basically

[pliant falcon]

poor girl

[sullen arrow]

its Bofuri's system

[pliant falcon]

tf is bofuri

[sullen arrow]

anime

[pliant falcon]

oh

[sullen arrow]

shield schoolgirl anime videogame

like sao, but slice of life and moe

and no kirito

[red venture]

todays group drawing

[fallen lance]

lmfao

[oak star]

let me tell you something@pliant falcon

You should let people playtest your game

Don't do full art first

Make some sketches and some random dialogue s first

At this rate you are going, getting the game out will be suuuuper painful.

[trim agate]

cant make dialogues when we dont have a solid plot to base it with.

[oak star]

It's been months

Doubt there isn't a base plot

There's a story Moka wanna tell that's for sure

Even if it's chapter 1

[trim agate]

things arent that easy y'know.

[oak star]

Oh I know that first hand

Which is why I said that some random dialogue is needed, by that I meant it to be unpolished

For example villager a could be saying.
"Trying to convince MC to spend money on the goods"

[pliant falcon]

bruh

[oak star]

Or the main character could be saying "Insert uplifting dialogue here "

[pliant falcon]

in rpg game you need a script first before making a game

you can't playtest a hollow game

it's like, hey let people playtest your VN, you can think of the story later

[oak star]

True, but RPG also have the gameplay.

[pliant falcon]

i think the most efficient thing is to do the story first instead of giving people nothing to test

[oak star]

Also it's easier to adjust your dialogue and story after putting in placeholders

[pliant falcon]

there's a planning step

you can't skip it and just jump to the developing

i'm sure you know what's SDLC since you're studying game making

[sullen arrow]

those are 2 different ways to make things

and both are valid

[oak star]

Planning step isn't as simple as fully focused on planning to fully focused on developing to fully focused on fixing stuff.

It's better to put a whole lotta place holder.

Something easy to remove

Something easy to add

VNs have placeholder dialogues following a road the author planned that is not fully detailed.

[pliant falcon]

zilf

let's say you want your VN be reviewed

[oak star]

And I'm not sure about you, but I will feel burn out if I don't see the game working.

[pliant falcon]

would you rather give your manager some page of your script of what's your gonna do

or just "hey boss, here's bunch of square moving around"

you need to keep a document first with plan and a vision

so you won't overscope your thing

[oak star]

People don't play the full vn, you make a road map for your game designers to check. After that you build by chapter or by parts within a chapter so that people can playtest and estimate the scoping of the project.

[pliant falcon]

so in this logic you would rather give your manager a placeholder VN filled with "insert text here"

rather than just give them a script of summary

[oak star]

Are you telling me that months in and you don't have a summary of part 1?

Like maybe the first village?

[pliant falcon]

i just started this though?

i scrapped the idea and start over

[oak star]

No way in hell you just start it

Wtf

If you just started it then I am in the wrong.

I assume you were at least done with the road map summary

[soft moth]

I’m not used to seeing Zilf as purple

[pliant falcon]

i reuse some of my old art so i don't have to redraw them

[oak star]

And had your first village sorted out.

But yeah, just spam placeholders.

Treat it as though you have a boss who wants to see a pre pre pre pre pre alpha.

Trust me, your manager rather see a placeholder vn with unpolished, dumb or placeholder scripts than nothing on the table.

[pliant falcon]

zilf

i'm literally brainstorming placeholder script right now

and you want me to give a demo of a nothingness?

or in this case a "playtest"

[oak star]

Typically usually even if it sounds dumb, people can see some weird pathetic gameplay progress in a week.

But since you're probably busy with school

I'll give or take within one month, a dumb prototype would be possible

Oh right, this is called prototyping

It's not a playtest

It's wayyyy before alpha

But on the other hand this being your personal project is true, so take your time then.

But as long as you are confident you won't have your interest wavered too much.

I know I sound like a stuck-up sonovabich right now, but let's just say I made enough games and this is just me being bias and worried.

[formal temple]

aight lads i be done for tonight. gonna redraw keyboard+legs tomorrow and then add some tacobell wrappers on the desk for maximum me vibes

[warm ingot]

Hell yeah

[soft moth]

Nice monitor

[formal temple]

sadly monitor isn't actually mine lmao i just decided to add it for the c o o l factor

[fallen lance]

appropriate amount of energy drink
