>>3887340
what's the indian graveyard story?

man dad I started a new job today and I'm so tired. I was full time before but this new job is 99% sitting in front of a screen and it just saps everything out of me instead of my last job where I was (still sitting in front of a screen most of the time) but actually doing shit.

I know it will be better for me and my career prospects in the long term but this isn't for me and I'm just waiting for something better to come along. Maybe one day I'll make it

>>3887479
Do you create flash games?

What are some good sites/programs to stream online how I'm drawing?

I think that it would be really motivating and I would push myself even harder, if people could see exactly what I'm doing in Photoshop and judge me (and bully me if I'm slacking).

>>3887541
What about me? Do you miss me?

>>3887543
I was using Xplit to stream my language sessions. It works very slick and easy to use. There is also OBS but I found it too hard at first.

If I'll start streaming how I'm drawing disgusting furry porn (I really want to start earning money with my art), will you guys join?

Is picarto.tv any good lads?

>>3887566
I think Kazoo is already doing this. Draw anime instead. Remember: Anime>furfags.

>>3887566
Why not draw appealing furry porn instead?

>>3887576
Furries > Weebs

yea but why are you making a new site

god i'm so tired of going two steps forward, realizing my methods are off and having to take 3 steps back

>>3887576

And who would buy that? Weebs weren't nearly autistic enough last time I checked.

>>3887580
>Why not draw appealing furry porn instead?
I'm not good enough for that ;_;

>>3887566
Last I checked picarto was a bit of a ghost town and most artists streamed on twitch, but if you're drawing porn idk

>>3887585
Kemono is just anime girls with a button nose

>>3887594
Would hold hands and have missionary sex with

>>3887595
Because it's fun.

And as much as I like Banana, previous experiences have made me anxious.

did runnerman1 ever learn how to program?

>>3887576
Goddamnit, I'm not a furry. I stream my commissions and assignments, some of them are anthro animals, don't bully.

>>3887566

I prefer Twitch over Picarto (though I only streamed on picarto 3 years ago, it may be better now) so far, but picarto will probably have a larger audience.

>>3887639

so this is just in case then?
are you worried tha banana's gonna die or abandon us? or just because hes kinda incompetent

>>3887693
It's mostly because I hate being dependent on some anon, and the rise and fall of previous las editions have strengthened that feeling.

Plus it's a fun exercise that will be a useful experience for my day job.

>>3887697

so are you going to release it publically when it's done or wait till DAD/Banana kicks the bucket

>>3887703
I don't know yet.
I am not far enough for such things. I haven't even found a good solution to one major problem and that is image storage.

But otherwise it's just a fun project, maybe I'll publish it on github or something.

>>3887715

no i mean are you going to have the site hosted and active while DAD is still up

i need to know if im going to have to migrate or double post on both sites or whatever

>>3887720
I don't know yet.

>>3887129
then why did you stop posting, you do realize no one posts anything here right?

@banana just a thought here, but could you make it where submissions that are 3D related support sketchfab or marmoset viewing instead of just a picture? or is that impossible?

>>3887737
also on that thought, i think it would be cool to have multiple submissions under one submission hierarchy so that people dont have to spam.

AHHHHHHHHH

>>3887324
>>3887639
>it's not in my favorite language therefore it doesn't exist
/beg/ programmers in a nutshell.
If you're anxious about banana, then you should help with his project.

>>3887697
You don't have to be dependent on him, since his project is publicly available, and you can always just deploy it if he fails. Short of dying, there's a pretty good chance he'd be willing to help migrate the content or something, though you'd probably want to ask him to verify that.

It's also worth remembering that we know banana's name, so he's not quite as much "some anon" as you, who is literally anonymous.

Teamwork also tends to be much more useful experience than a solo project.

>>3887715
>not GitLab
It's generally a good idea to post the code so that people can contribute or take over if you die. On the other hand, maybe the next person will be like you and spontaneously decide to overthrow you while working from scratch on some new project.

>>3887730
You definitely shouldn't, unless you have some specific reason that banana's site isn't going to work out. You probably shouldn't even then, since so long as an issue is fixable (and it is, because his project is publicly available), it's virtually always better to fix an issue than to migrate, or even worse, split in half, a community.

t. currently writing a new site by myself when alternatives exist in an ill-suited language to split a community in half
Feel free to ignore everything I said.

>>3887754
tl;dr

Is it fine to participate if i take very long time finishing my art? This would mean posting mostly not fully finished stuff most of the time.

>>3887929
Yeah, you're allowed to post WIPs, generally the idea is to spend least 30 minutes drawing anything, so if people can notice an appreciable difference of that amount between each WIP you're not going to get tribunalled (not that the tribunal exists, yet)

If you guys are working on an art study site might as well come up with a new concept, maybe one more intetractive.

Something other than "draw every day".

>>3888351
how can we mechanistically encourage daddies that die to get back on the horse again?
persevering even when you lose everything is an important skill and a great deal of DADs just cba after their initial large streak gets fucked

>>3888530

I thought the seasonal challenges would be a good motivating factor, and to some extent, they have helped with people feeling "left out" because they didn't start early as well as people who want to schedule their breaks/commitment in a more flexible manner. This has been reflected in seasonal participation amounts, which have hovered around 200.

If you have other retention ideas, I'm open to hearing them.

>>3888531
What about a counter for the cumulative number of days you've been submitting to dad?
Like, if you build a 100 streak, die, take a few months off, rebuild a streak of 34, die, take a week off, and rebuild a streak of 82, all that time you'd also have a built up separate cumulative counter of 216 days submitting work to dad. Give it a set of badgers that you can win too, then dads that never lose their streak and dads that keep losing their streak will both have something else to always aim for that they know will not be reset upon death (a higher cumulative counter)
drawing as many days as possible becomes the goal rather than a long string of uninturrupted days

>>3888531
hey banana, unrelated, but I've been wanting to ask for a feature that can download a user's entire gallery in one click. Maybe into a .zip or something. I think it's a nice way to collect inspiration.
What do you think? Is it viable?

Im a bit confused about the Grid Masters challenge. Like i was thinking of either doing pixel art for it or doing something with inkscape (with "snapping to grid" toggle turned on).

What im confused about. Is that in the first part of the challenge, we are supposed to post our grid. Neither of the options i was thinking of doing, require me to spend any time or thought, when it comes to making the grid. So i was wondering. Why the challenge was split to 2 parts and why we have 2 weeks to come up with a grid? Or is just meant to give time to the traditional artists to manually draw their grid?

>>3888757
Pixel art and the inkscape thing is pefectly valid. Just screencap your grid, if possible.

>why we have 2 weeks to come up with a grid?
Option 2! For traditional artists or those who want to make research on grid/comp and eventually submit a complex grid. Example: Enter "carsten nicolai grid index" in your favourite search engine.

No problem, if you want to post your grid on day 1 and your drawing on day 1 too.

>>3888554
I'd like much more difficult leveling, but you retain the levels if you miss. If you break your streak, you go back to the beginning of your level. For every submission period you miss, you lose another level.

You could also try another metric that factors in consistency over time, not just raw streak. How that should probably work:
* A high streak with a couple misses should count for more than a low streak with none.
* A streak with a few recent misses should count for less than one with more old misses. Old submitters who miss a submission period should be placed pretty low, but eventually be able to overtake most of those newer submitters again, even if they don't miss.
* Missed days should never go away entirely, but diminish to nothing as your streak gets longer.

I'm not sure exactly what that algorithm would be, but naively, probably something along the lines of `sqrt(submission periods passed) * accuracy` where the accuracy is something like the sum of `period(periods ago) * 2^(-periods ago)`.

You could probably even have a total submission count comparison too, I dunno.

Any of those things would keep missing brutal, but not as damaging as an old-timer missing a day (though the first one would keep that progressive difficulty essentially). Diminishing returns on longer streaks (by bigger level gaps or the second system) would keep constant competition between the longer streaks, but still make newcomers feel more competitive, because the longer you go, the closer your score comes to the older user, even though you'll never overtake it.

Just some ideas.

I wouldn't mind a token, you never know when u spend all day tdrawing, think you submitted, only to find out the next day you actually didn't

>>3888930
Another idea: you could also allow back-submissions. By posting shortly after you miss a day, you don't lose your streak. Instead, you have to draw twice as much to make up for that missed day, and lose a massive score proportional to both your current score and (exponentially) the time passed. Assuming a daily submitter, posting a few minutes late will only remove a day or two. Posting a day late might remove an eighth of your streak. Two days, a quarter. Three days, half. Four days, and you're done. Or something like that.

Some way to have planned breaks would also be nice, but I don't have any good ideas for dealing with that.

>>3888930

Oh yeah, I forgot you need to do that

How do I learn to draw with my shoulder? Should I be able to do tiny lines too with it? How much control does shoulder drawing actually give you, is it just for long sweeping lines?

Should I just draw solely from my shoulder from now on in order to learn? I'm not sure I can do it without actually going insane though

I do have tokens / vacation days coming up as a feature.
As for retaining your levels, your account still has a record of the highest level you've achieved (used for site privileges). Perhaps part of the issue is that it could be more transparent (only shown on an on-hover dialogue over avatars).

>>3888557

I mulled this one over and was playing devil's advocate ("oh, people are gonna dig up dirt on everyone") but it honestly just makes things easier for people who want to archive their own stuff or get references of an artist they like.
I'll consider it. I don't know what this would technically entail but I'll be working on it sometime in the future.


>>3887737

Given that there's web support for viewing 3D models, it's not impossible by definition, but I've never worked with something like that before and I'm not sure how valuable sinking time into something about 5% of the userbase would actually make use of is a useful allocation of time.

>>3887739

What's yours look like? I was throwing around some thoughts on what I wanted and didn't want in LAS, but I've kinda thrown the project aside for now. Made the basic idea for the dashboard and a gallery. I was thinking of a way to do challenges differently, basically changing them from starting on a set date, to being persistent challenges you can do whenever you want, kind of like duolingo lessons. Say the way duolingo has languages, here instead you have different skills like anatomy, landscape, whatever, and in those skills there are defined a set of challenges you can do to level up that skill.

wake up daddy its time to draw!

Hey Cath.
I saw your last submission and I have a question for you: why the fuck are you ignoring the sticky, you lazy bastard?!
This vomit-inducing, uneven rendering was understandable a year ago, cute even (in the way it's cute for a retarded dog to struggle with getting a long stick through the doorway). But now? After almost 400 submissions? It's just embarrassing. Are you really so dense that idea of blending is too much for you? I swear to God, when I look at your newest submissions and your oldest I don't see any difference at all in terms of shading.
Stop sucking your own dick, get out of your comfort zone and learn how to render you faggot.

>>3889375

I was admitted to the hospital yesterday. Doctors found something strange near my heart. Hopefully it's nothing and I can go home soon. It's times like this how one starts to reflect on life.

Hey Menes and Derp. You died. Again.

>>3893012
You can choose. On the site there are non-official challenges made by other DADs that you can join in (you need to preregister on challenges that haven't started, you there's no function to join ongoing challenges yet).

Thank God nowadays there's fetish for every part of a body; it makes finding refs so much easier.

>>3891286
Chill dude, I was with my friends this weekend and I didn't want to put more effort. Thanks for caring though.

>>3893032
>this weekend
You missed my point. I'm mad at you because you generally didn't improve, not because of that particular submission.
It's alright and I completely understand not doing your best once in a while. But it's not OK and I'm not alright with how stagnant you are, with how little gains you have. Even the best piece you did this whole month isn't significantly better than the best piece you did at the beginning of dad.
I also understand not having any improvements within a month, or two, but a year? Clearly there's something wrong with your study methods and you need a wake up call.

Is Furry art practice (non lewd) allowed to be posted here?

>>3892987

>>3893041
ya, you can submit that shit to dad just fine, pretty sure there are furry artists there already

>>3893041
Yes but use the site instead, people will meme on you if you use the thread for that, plus you can post lewd fur on the site too.

>>3893041
no, only lewd furry is allowed. Otherwise, you're a filthy closeted degenerate.

>>3893041
You cant post it in the threads because people report it but it is perfectly fine on the DAD site

I wanted to do a sort of 30 days long anatomy challenge where each day you wold focus on different body parts and muscles but have trouble coming up with what to draw each day.
Obviously I consider repeating the subjects at least twice during this month so an artist could see his progress or if not progress atleast strengthen his understanding of the subject.

Maybe someone has done it before and has every day planned? If so could you please share it? Or maybe we could come up with it together? I thought that DAD people may be up for it, that's why I'm asking here

>>3893157
You should pick what to do on each day depending on what you're weakest at
Spend multiple days on the same body part if necessary, just don't half ass it and not learn for a day

>>3893157
Somebody did it before but the only rule he set was to study some anatomy every day and you picked and choose what you studied yourself.

>>3893157
surely this should be better structured to get the most out of this, something more than telling people, "hey, study blah, okay? we cool"

This is the list with what I came up regarding to anatomy so far. Any suggestions on what could be added?
Maybe break some major subject into a bunch of smaller ones idk.
What do you think?

>>3893328
legs?

>>3893333
Falls into Hip, shin and feet categories?

>>3893328
I wouldn'y put hip and knee at the same time.

>>3893328
I would say grab a book on anatomy, like Bridgman, Kondrats & Zarins, Sheppard etc. and see how they break down the different anatomical groups. Also, it might be worth subdividing anatomy by Skeletal, Musculature, and Fat deposits, in order to be able to constructively build up an anatomy from it's base. Additionally, something like facial anatomy can be complex enough to take up more than a couple days worth of study. The same might be true for the musculature/tendons for the hand/wrist, especially in elderly people. Also this can all be complicated by looking at how those parts contort in motion or pose; folding, bunching up, flattening out, certain muscles layering in ways that hide or expose other muscles depending on pose. There are a lot of options to consider when trying to organize anatomy for study, I wouldn't rush into making a challenge without considering all of this.

>>3893328
Dicks, vags and breasts.

How do ou guys schedule to not run out of time?
The time is already de synced with my timezone and I have a messy schedule.
I just submited for today but I had to cut the work short because I have to get out to do stuff.

>>3893360
>>3893356
What is there to study about cocks?

>>3893365
Their taste, smell, how to take it down the throat without gagging

>>3893363

submit wips dumbo, cutting something short just to hit a dad deadline is stupid

>>3893363
I'm luck enough that the deadline is past midnight for me so I can always work a bit before sleep.
But besides that, I try to draw throughout the day so I have at least something and am not forced to always draw at the very end of the day, sometimes I'm really tired of work and can't put my head to it, at those times I'm grateful I drew a bit in the morning or afternoon.

>>3893377
That's sort of what I'm doing though. I want to get better qr painting so I'm trying to build a mini portfolio of paintings so someone a bit more experienced can give me some advice. So far I've posted 2 and I might post further work on them tomorrow.
>>3893403
That's a good start. I'll have it in mind. I'm trying to set up a daily timeframe to draw because the schedule is very hectic right now. But going by your idea, I'll try to have a notebook at hand to do some read sketches just in case.

Do you guys have any good recommendations for books/tutorials about drawing environments?

>>3893726
noooooooo oh my god

>>3893796
Thanks daddy Jesus!

Just putting this out there for thought, but what if there was some way to "bring back" old challenges? Like maybe during the challenge's one year anniversary people can vote if they're interested in doing it and if it gets enough interested votes it becomes live again and goes on for the same duration as last year.

Besides Banana having to take the time to code it the only downside I see is it makes badges less "special" but since you can't trade them or anything I don't see that as a huge deal. Meanwhile especially as the site gets older it'll appeal to newbies so they don't feel like they missed out, entice old users to keep going after a failure so they feel like they can try again next year and give them something to look forward to, and honestly I feel like we're running out of ideas for new challenges and just rehashing popular old ones anyway.

Just a 2am thought though, I'm just curious to see what other, more rested people think about it.

>>3893978
I like that idea anon
if the badges could even be slightly changed, created into second/third/fourth/etc edition badges, or something, so those who got them first time around still have bragging rights, essentially
mite b cool

How does banana pay for hosting?

>>3893989
Out of pocket iirc, I'd be happy to support him on patreon or any crowdfunding system if he ever decided to offload the server costs when it grows too high

>>3893998
Damn
I can't imagine doing something like this for others who would use your site for free while you constantly need to pay for it especially that you need a lot of HDD space for your server considering constant uploads to it

>>3894003
Yeah, he's a good banana

>>3894003
Not to mention all of that while the people he cares for abuses him and makes fun of him and calls him a scalie.

>>3894006
>calls him a scalie
He is into furry stuff?

>>3894006
Hes a good scalie daddy

>>3894006
kek

>>3894007
Not sure, but he avatarfags as a dragon named Adine I believe, from Angels with Scaly Wings. It's literally got scaly in the name.

>>3894007
He likes them dragons

>>3894011
I remember playing that 'game'
I am into the fandom but even then I would say that his tastes are pretty low to be quite honest.

Do artists draw on really big canvas then scale it down? Pic unrelated

>>3894199

Artists tend to draw on the biggest cintiqs they can buy on the market. If you can't afford one you have to give up.

>>3894204
funny :)

>>3894199
im sure its different for every artist, but the big ones like ruan jia and craig mullins use 10k-20k canvas if not bigger, then export at like 30% ratio. I also see more and more artists that start out with like 700x700 pixel canvas, to get some nice textures, and then scale it up for a nice textured background they can then paint more details on.

>>3894204
*breaks your cintiq*

>>3894199
Yeah

This "flu" is getting worse. Last time I was coughing so hard, I almost vomited. Today, instead of drawing, I've spend almost whole day sleeping under a thick duvet and few blankets with my heater on. Google search of my symptoms says it could be a whooping cough. If that's the case, then it's going to get even worse.

Hopefully eating a shitload of garlic will help me, since it has antibiotic properties.

This is not the first time that this has been brought up, and it is simple to implement. I'll think about it.

For someone who works in a STEM-related job, it's really no sweat. People run personal websites all the time. People freak out over the so and so gigabytes of images I'm storing, but in this age of cloud services it really does not cost much at all with AWS S3.


>>3894006

It comes with the territory. It's 4chan. I've been here since I was thirteen. My disposition might betray my emotional vulnerabilities, but I've been around the bend; stuff here very rarely actually gets to me and sometimes can be pretty funny.
There is a little concern (and people have left because of this fact), that when trying to build a reputation on your work, people might judge me based on the fact that I'm affiliated to this place, but the bottom line is, LAS started here, I owe a lot to LAS, so there's no way I'm turning my back the place that spawned the tool gave me a passing shot at getting decent at art. If I did, who would it even be for? I'm not going to bend over backwards for the approval of idiotic social media users who can't look below the surface, think beyond the initial knee-jerk reactions or judge things on their own merits.


>>3894017

Fair, the art in that game ranges between not good to not bad, and the story is decent though the "dating" things are tacked on.
Doesn't change the fact that Adine is the best waifu I've semi-ironically had. Even fits my online moniker.


>>3894652

Most commonly: Death Grips, Arcade Fire, Noe Venable, Tally Hall, Various Celtic Songs, The Guild of Ambiance, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia


Sorry about the dev delays. A combination of personal things coming up, me trying to draw more often/longer and plain old lethargy has been contributing to it. This weekend should be relatively free if I don't pass out on Friday.

You're not far from the truth- I work in childcare, most of the art I post is stuff the kids there asked me to draw for them. That's why it's mostly pokemon and disney characters (though I do love drawing them), and also in black and white because I want to let them color it in themselves.

h-how do I achieve a manlier art style

>>3895142

I think for starters, subject is one of the pretty obvious things. You know, girls don't tend to draw much machinery or industrial things, military stuff. Etc. Though that's not always the case, and forcing yourself into a subject you don't care for likely won't have good results.

The other thing I think might move it more in one way or the other is the qualities of the line, textures and colors. Perhaps try making your lines a bit more rigid/strong? It's not such a simple thing I believe since a lot of those things will be unconciously influenced first by sex and then by personaity.

where is he now?

What are you working on today lads? Any specific topic/practice in mind?

I've never really focused on environments, so that's what I'm focusing on. I gave myself an assignment: come up with a design of a medieval, dark alley that could be used in a 3d game, a place where MC could meet a seller of illegal goods or get robbed by thugs.
At the same time I'm trying to make it so that it could be used as a background for my new pinup furry illustration. I'm trying to study concept art and do furry porn at the same time.
