@dusk echo probably not suitable for this server, as talented as your drawing skills are
shadow nimbus
considering it's not really nsfw, and it's more just suggestive than anything, I think it should be fine for the server

@proven estuary I know of some helpful tutorials, I'll DM them to you once I get home
ancient wyvern
Tutorials have not been the most reliable source for me and many of my friends, though not all of them. Most of the time I find that youโll get the best results not necessarily drawing what looks real, but what comes to you first
sacred zealot
@proven estuary depending on where you live, attending a life drawing class with a tutor will help a lot. Also an anatomy reference book. it's something that comes with practice and a little bit of knowledge
mellow dawn
@proven estuary I happened to be in an art school. I didnโt take life drawing courses but I had to take animation course before and drew things like bouncing ball. I have schoolmates and gf helping me with drawing concepts.
But i would strongly suggest you go to a tutor or art school if you have time if you are not in one or majoring in it
For anatomy i have a book named anatomy for 3d artist, which is a very good book

Gnolls are beautiful, just... Misunderstood and misguided. If they were raised right, they could be just like everyone else

And I'm sure if you showed gnolls a little bit of kindness- Showed them how they could raise livestock, give them a home, all that, they would be integrated into society like everyone else

Gnolls are smart enough to form societies, their society happens to be vey violent and tribal so most gnolls are violent

spaghetti o's?
neon peak
eugh
I mean, I'm jealous because I'd love to be able to try my hand at casting my own dice
But those just look like they'd stain my dice tray with tomato sauce ๐
shadow nimbus
don't you mean """""tomato sauce""""" ? :p
considering how low quality spaghetti o's are...
somber kestrel
I suspect they were frozen and then coated in epoxy while frozen
meaning that you can engrave numbers, have it be a solid shell but also the rings will slosh around inside which must look absolutely weird
neon peak
In the UK, it's pretty good quality tomato sauce
lots of sugar, but still real tomatos
@somber kestrel Yeah, I wouldn't even be surprised if those just aren't plastic rings in resin tinted orange
neon peak
They look pretty even to me, just distorted by the resin
And the fact that none of them are squished or cut off would suggested they're fairly solid
There's a lot that look like they pressed against the mold without bending
somber kestrel
where would you get plastic rings that are completely lopsided and of unique sizes each
neon peak
none of them look lopsided
and it looks like there's only three sizes really
Also, the fact there are three sizes makes me think they're plastic rings (or rubber maybe) because spaghetti rings are using one, large size
somber kestrel
there are clearly more than three sizes here
and quite a few of these are lopsided
somber kestrel
except o-rings aren't lopsided
neon peak
I don't see any lopsided ones
somber kestrel
look at the bottommost of 2
neon peak
I see plenty that appear distorted by the sides of the dice
Yeah, the two near the point of the d10 in the bottom right?
somber kestrel
yeah
neon peak
Look closely, that's refractive distortion due to the way the resin is molded
You get that in all dice that contain 'bits'
There's a person I follow on twitter that does loads of novelty dice, like with tiny plastic fish inside and whatnot
You always get refraction
somber kestrel
I seriously doubt that you can amount this to distortion but most of all even if it is there are clearly more than three sizes here
neon peak
Sure, there are more sizes than you'd get in a can of speghetti rings
But about as many as you'd get in a set of o-rings like I linked
somber kestrel
you'd have to find some novelty o-rings if a) you want them white and b) you want them as thick and small as the one above the lopsided on at the bottom of the d10
neon peak
I'm trying to find a sauce on these
I have o-rings in white like those
for my ear stretchers
They come in sizes from about 3mm internal diameter to bigger, but the thickness is always pretty consistent
Ah
we're both wrong
somber kestrel
Twitter
somber kestrel
told you they were lopsided
neon peak
But you were right that they were uneven and lopsided
So we were both right in different ways
BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME!
somber kestrel
if I saw these on my toolbox I'd throw them out
neon peak
I honestly thought it was refraction
somber kestrel
man this makes me want to do it with real spaguetti-os just to prove that it is possible
I even have a can of epoxy next to me right now
neon peak
I think the freezing might work
although they might defrost and then cook/decompose as the resin cures
somber kestrel
freeze, chisel, coat, sand
neon peak
Maybe if you did a pre-coat of resin post freeze?
I really need to get some resin molding gear and try my hand at dice making
somber kestrel
the really tricky part would be to get these frozen enough that they don't unfreeze while the epoxy cures
because I'm pretty sure epoxy won't cure if it's near freezing temps
somber kestrel
18c is the recommended lowest temp for it
which is actually pretty high
hm
also about 5 days to fully harden
keen dome
18c is pretty low
neon peak
That's 4 below 'room temp'
somber kestrel
could be easier to just try to figure out a way to solidify a spaghetti-o mix without having to freeze it
neon peak
So I'd consider that pretty cold by people standards
Maybe dry pasta?
Like, drain and wash the Os
they dry them out
keen dome
4 below room temp in the middle of winter, to boot
neon peak
in the oven
keen dome
Yeah drying could work
somber kestrel
room temp in this country is usually closer to 16c if you're lucky during winters
at my uni we frequently have classes in 12c temp rooms
shadow nimbus
I don't use Celsius, so I'm not sure the conversions for freezing and all that
somber kestrel
freezing is 0 for water
neon peak
I mean, 'room temp' has a specified definition I think
Like, there's Room Temp and the temperature of the room you might be in
shadow nimbus
I understand, but it's not really useful for figuring each degree compared to Fahrenheit
neon peak
I think room temp is defined as 24C
keen dome
I think scientifically its somewhere in the 20Cs
shadow nimbus
Room temperature is 72F
keen dome
23 or 25 i think
somber kestrel
72f is 22
sacred zealot
Iirc from my H&S room temp should be 21 to 22C
neon peak
Interesting
The WHO defines the standard for comfortable warmth for suitably dressed adults as 18C
sacred zealot
And no lower than 17C for a length of time
neon peak
Although in terms of science and industry it seems to be 20-25C
somber kestrel
meanwhile I keep my rooms around 26
sacred zealot
16c even
shadow nimbus
18c is comfortable for me
keen dome
18c is real cold
shadow nimbus
I prefer the cooler temperatures
neon peak
It's all very subjective
somber kestrel
18c is not real cold
neon peak
There's no such thing as 'real cold'
somber kestrel
18c is t-shirt weather
neon peak
it's just what you're used to
shadow nimbus
It's 65F, which isn't that bad
somber kestrel
temps are subjective but 18c is not "real cold" anywhere on earth
neon peak
No, temps are objective
somber kestrel
and I live in one of the hotter parts
neon peak
'cold' and 'hot' is subjective
Your cold might be my hot
but the temp will be the same
keen dome
18c is a temp most people in my state will shiver in
neon peak
But we're not really talking arts and crafts now ๐
shadow nimbus
I hate hot weather though. Here it gets to 99% humidity with it already being 90+F

Spurt the Kobold
shadow nimbus
kobolds are dragon descendant
and I prefer when they look cuter as opposed to...
Well, whatever the art is for them in 5e
ancient wyvern
What about when you have to kill them though?
lilac warren
I mean, Kirito got it pretty spot on with a lot of features.
I mean, the feet are smol but that is really about it
shadow nimbus
I suppose, but I wouldn't think of kobolds as being as... ragged? They should be smoothly scaled, like dragons, and they shouldn't have rat faces
gentle turtle
I based the drawing on earlier editions of dnd but still trying to keep in mind newer concepts
Trying to stick more dog-like features instead of fully dragon
gentle turtle
(Inspiration art)
ancient wyvern
You kinda need something to differentiate between the reptilians of D&D aside from height & habits though
shadow nimbus
The snout shape is a defining feature
Kobolds have more square snouts, and are a bit more boney in general
ancient wyvern
Thatโs so minor though, honestly
shadow nimbus
Their build is different from the other reptilian races though
copper ravine
Depends on the edition.
ancient wyvern
This could easily be confused for a thin lizardfolk or a sort of half-dragon just through your example artwork
shadow nimbus
well, for one, lizardfolk are much bigger
And they're, as the name suggests
lizards
which have different features from dragons and dragon descendants
They are also built differently. Lizardfolk and more... Hulking? Their shoulder placement is different.
ancient wyvern
Again, in individual pictures, size can be deceiving. And very often, lizardfolk look very similar to kobolds or half-Dragons (see Kestrelโs art for what I mean)
copper ravine
Doesn't really matter. All that matters is that the player is happy with the art they have chosen to represent their character.
shadow nimbus
I guess the biggest detail is that lizardfolk's mouths are much bigger, and the snout slides in closer to the forehead. Far closer
wheat finch
yea in older editions kobolds were more doglike
i like them looking more like dragonlike than rat/dog that is scaled
copper ravine
Yup. Me too.
shadow nimbus
I like them looking more dragonlike, but cuter and less... I'm not sure how to put it. The other side of dragonlike, moving away from the art for them in 5e.
wheat finch
i kinda just noticed that the 5e kobolds still have a dog nose
gentle turtle
I like these opinions
humble turret
mechobald
wheat finch
this is just some 5e kobold stuff for reference to their dog noses and how they still do have a doglike face despite being more draconic
gentle turtle
Swampellow I love you
wheat finch
im just talking about the 5e stuff
gentle turtle
Still
ancient wyvern
Theyโve always been canonically very doglike, just less so in 5E
gentle turtle
I believe that there should be more obvious, defining features between reptilian races/monsters, since without clarifying which is which, it is difficult to tell the difference between a kobold, a half-dragon, a lizard folk, and a Dragonborn. So many dragons, so little time
lilac warren
bรถrk bรถrk goes the kobold
opaque kraken
It's actualy pretty easy to differentiate them with official art tbh
shadow nimbus
I honestly don't think that not having a giant difference between them is an issue
It would make sense for them to look similar.
that being said, I can tell the difference /shrug
wheat finch
Kobold is easy to tell apart from the others
as is Lizardfolk
the only one that would really be difficult is half dragon and dragonborn
as a dragonborn is almost just a human half dragon
opaque kraken
Dragonborn and half dragons look nothing alike...
Half Dragons always have the head of their dragon half so they are super distinct from dragonborn...
wheat finch
i guess i should clarify, by really difficult i mean with any amount of difficulty
as all the others are easy
as a dragonborn can have a yknow, dragon-like head
gentle turtle
Without scrolling higher what race is this? (art by kestrel)
keen dome
given it's kestral, kobold
opaque kraken
Thats a Lizardfolk because i've seen the art already xD
keen dome
no wait yeah
wheat finch
based on official 5e stuff, it cant be a dragonborn
cause officially dragonborn dont have tails
lilac warren
drawing dragonborn head is a pain in the rear to draw
wheat finch
even though everybody ive ever spoken to agrees that them being tailless is silly
although it does give them a distinction when looking at them compared to other reptilian races
shadow nimbus
I'd say kobolds can't have the head "fin" things
gentle turtle
This is the problem with reptilian/Draconic designs (It all looks good but there should be something defining the race)
wheat finch
theres also the whole thing with nonofficial art of artistic license on how people want them to look lol
gentle turtle
Thatโs true
wheat finch
also to consider: half dragons arent a player race
but yea, most people who ive seen with dragonborn characters have them have a tail
opaque kraken
because it looks better
lilac warren
Ngl, I thought they had tails until I read up on it.
And I learned this looks at watch 30 seconds ago
wicked yoke
I am pleased to be the work study of the lizardfolk~

Itโs gettinโ all Phoenix Wright up in this hizzouse
gentle turtle
Thank you everyone for contributing in this conversation
ancient wyvern
So I think yโall should know
ARK and I are on a podcast
We stirred up this conflict for a YT channel
Weโre discussing the controversy behind primarily kobold designs
opaque kraken
go on...
ancient wyvern
I hope you guys are ok with us using context of this conversation on the channel
Weโre small and non-professional, we really just do this for fun
wicked yoke
Honestly, there doesn't have to be that much physical difference between those three scaled races.
I know a lot of people would prefer if Dragonborn had tails.
ancient wyvern
But they donโt though .3.
wicked yoke
Not officially, anyway.
ancient wyvern
They just donโt have tails though, man. Itโs in the handbook
wicked yoke
But they can if you want them to in the world. It's D&D. The only limit is your imagination and the consent of the table.
opaque kraken
Indeed
opaque kraken
I know its a podcast but if you use art used from this conversation, credit the artists
wicked yoke
But I'd say the easiest way to distinguish a lizardfolk from other races is that they often have more real-world reptilian aspects to them, such as frills, bright colors, or crocodilian jaws.
opaque kraken
Also there is one thing some people often forget about dragonborn funny enough.
The dreadlock scales
Beard ones for males
Hair like ones for females
copper ravine
That art is Argonian from Elder Scrolls.
ancient wyvern
Weโre crediting the artists, donโt you worry. Our 60 subs who are just here because they forgot that they subbed will know who made these drawings
Or at least, who posted them.
And where they were posted
Weโre not pros
wicked yoke
Which art is argonian?
ancient wyvern
Any objections to posting the context and some art from this server on YouTube?
wicked yoke
None from me, at least.
opaque kraken
Same
copper ravine
Yes, from Kestrel. They look like Argonians from Elder scrolls with those head fins.
wicked yoke
Another point being that kobolds generally have very thin body structures, where dragonborn are depicted as being a lot more heavy-set.
wheat finch
Argonians are based on lizards rather than dragons
opaque kraken
Dragonborn be chunky
copper ravine
The art says Argonian to me more than anything else. shrugs
wheat finch
so that would make sense that lizardfolk and argonians look similar
opaque kraken
I get that reference. But if we further discuss the differences between the scaled humanoids of D&D we should take that to #dnd-discussion
wicked yoke
Well, given that it is a discussion on the appearance, I'd say art is an apt enough channel to discuss it in.
solemn bay
i do agree that i messed up Doom's nose, after correction he turns out even cuter so i'm happy. BUT i'd like to counter argument that @gentle turtle you gave yours ears ,which they don't have according to the drawings in the manual !

thank you @solemn bay but like I pointed out I based mine on both 5th edition and the first edition art. ur boi looks cute lol
solemn bay
do you have a ref of what the 1st edition kobold illustration looks like ??? i would LOVE to see that !!
gentle turtle
solemn bay
THAT was from the 1st edition ??? damn. i thought you picked that up from a old tapestry drawing or so ... i'm done complaining about the 5e illustrations hahaha
opaque idol
A product of its time... Very much like a product of 300 years before haha\
sacred zealot
I kinda like the quality of those older drawings - the line work is very clear and comic like
I wonder if the style was more to do with getting something to print cheaply and legibly.
opaque idol
Probably. But it does set the mood i think
neon peak
The art was praised at it's time. I bet in 30 years time, when algorithms can generate photorealistic images of any scene, current art will be treated with equal regard
opaque idol
I mean, id hope so.
sacred zealot
back then you would have used offset lithography and only needing 1 or 2 plates instead of 4 for CMYK is way way cheaper. the illustration style also conjures up associations with medieval woodcuts and almanacs
today's digital paintings have more in common with early C19th Romantic paintings

I have a question, for miniatures (like ones you custom make thru HeroForge) what type of paint best suits them? I got a few characters of mine I want to paint but I wasnโt sure what type of paint to use.
agile rock
Acrylic paint for sure, you can use cheap paints (make sure to water them down or use a wet pallet, you can make a wet pallet yourself using tupperware, paper towel and parchment paper) -- but the best paints you can get will be hobby paints. I personally have a preference for the brand "Vallejo", which you can get at most game stores, but lots of people like "Citadel" more.

Itโs a Yuan-ti Hell Knight (Conquest Paladin of Dendar) who wants to claim herself a place in Yuan-ti society. Her malison mother (whom she despised), fell in love with a human and was forced to leave before Querila was born. So now she has rejected her parents, and pledged her service to the Yuan-ti gods (the reason she is more beastly than a standard pureblood is because she despises her own 'humanity' so has been attempting various ancient rituals to try become more snake-like).

One of my players named their raven familiar.. Strahd's mother's name
He.. wasn't amused.. to say the least
cold goblet
our characters found the tome and then freed ireena so he had made it clear he wasnt playing with us anymore, so when he got my chara alone i went "well its been fun" and 1v1'd him on the ride to the castle. didn't win, but DM admitted i came close
stone sundial
(killed the familiar, rushed to the player, watched as some barbarians rushed the PC and beat a heavy armor wearing noble woman to the ground then Strahd killed her and raised her as a zombie for the party to find )
cold goblet
go off strahd, show them how its done
