I miss the "color the 2hu threads"

>>16653827
>Couldn't find one.
That's because they're made every few weeks or couple of months in order to give some downtime.

This is just bass and vocal MIDI. I'm not sure if I should continue to work on it, some critique would be nice.

>>16653827
I miss the days when flockmod threads were still alive

>>16653845
I made a roll & draw thread but it was deleted for some reason.

>>16654380
Can you post the roll image from that thread? I'm a little bored right now.

>>16654380
Rolling threads are considered "get" threads.

>>16654382
They were an institution in /jp/ with mass participation for years. Maybe it's a recent change.

>>16654384
So are flanfly threads. They still get deleted. Just because you shitpost for years doesn't make it not a shitpost. Roll threads usually aren't allowed on other boards either, but they're part of just drawing threads sometimes on /jp/ so I imagine they get a pass sometimes.

>>16654668
I think the mods want people to actually deliver on what they roll, otherwise it is just wasting posts on nothing. I would rather have just a large image with all of the in game portraits of touhous to pick from, so that way I don't have to go research their dress designs and such.

>>16653827
that first Reimu looks like SRMY.

>>16654890
>a large image with all of the in game portraits of touhous to pick from
Something like this? I did just the PC98 ones as an example. A Windows version might have to be broken into parts, but would this basic format be good?

>>16656194
yes, basically pick a touhou and draw her. don't bother with rolling, since this is not /b/ or [s4s]

>>16653827
Why won't you follow the format?

Drew this 4koma just today.

If there's anybody who's one of those hr and reading this, kill yourself you fucking scumbag useless piece of shit.

I'm feeling it after going to a career fair yesterday, after dressing up and built a damn resume for weeks, only to be looked down upon because of how mediocre my GPA is.

>>16653827
What touhou treats speculative investments like the plague and sinks her entire portfolio into bonds and blue chips that pay dividends

>>16657862
>>16657895
A lot of manual labour like working as a farm hand, catching chickens or shelling crab is still open to basically anyone willing to do it

>>16657862
Think of it like some nerd's wishlist for a girlfriend. They want a 30 year old master chef with a loli body and cat ears. They will get at best a 25 year old OL who looks 25 and will say 'nyaa' if you ask her to. Just apply and show up to an interview as long as you think you can remotely do the job.

>>16659204
What is the point of your post?

>>16659208
"Just take the job even if you are unqualified to. If you're lucky and they have no one who is more qualified, you might get it. If not, tough luck."

Something along those line, as I see it.

>>16659247
This basically >>16659208
If you think you can actually do the job, just ignore what they want and apply anyway.

Applications for counselors with PhD in NEET Motivation is two doors down the hall.

>>16657862
Accidently uploaded the one before I fixed the weirdly parted text on the advertisement.
Here's the fixed version.

I heard of dumb shit like sanitation engineer or sandwich artist but seeing 'Coffee Engineer' was so dumb it got stuck in my head. Didn't even need to make it up, shit spewing retards at hr wrote itself for me. Getting a certification in retails shouldn't even exist. Stating wage is minimum is actually starting wage is above minimum in the real advertisement and experience is 2+ instead of 3+yrs. Just exaggerated a bit for comedic effect.

I had another 4koma idea that I just say it now so I can get it out of my head and not draw it.

Panel 1: After painstakingly filling out profile forms and uploading CV with the exact same details, ends up on one of those multi-questionnaires. The application is for some supermarket chain or those big department clothes stores that sell really cheap clothes.

Panel 2: 5 answers to each question. All very similar and reasonable, no reason any of them could be considered wrong except maybe one super obvious answer. You are given 10 points to divide it among what answers you think deserve the most points.

Panel 3: Spends a hard time dividing points to the answers and overthinking.
18 pages of these multi-choice questions to go through, estimated time to finish is very long.

Panel 4: MC "WRYYYY's" hysterically with tears in his eyes for comedic effect.

>>16659445
This isn't even a real OC thread

>>16660435
this.

It feels wrong to post programming related stuff for "draw only" threads. There are also no reason to waste one of our 150 thread slots for making another thread for "any kind of oc". Maybe it's time to degenerate and start crossboarding.

Is this the NEET thread?

I've been waiting to post this, not that it's particularly good. On the bright side, it's not particularly bad(i think)!

>>16654381
Let's go!

>>16654380
I like your coloring

>>16662243
Looks good

>>16662288
Thanks, rolling.

Since this is a draw thread, here's one of my not-so-recent drawings.
I'm still learning.

>>16662490
Oh wow, I rolled Marisa.

Anyways, this is supposed to be a redraw of this from a month and a half ago. Didn't realize I flipped the hands until now.
I'm improving very slowly compared to others who I've seen. I'm getting worried.

>>16656428
>>16656194
Whew boy, it took quite a bit of JPEGing to fit it all into 4MB, but it works, more or less.

If you're interested in a cleaner and more detailed reference to keep on hand, I put this image together mostly from this resource collection: https://mega.nz/#!rRl3FLQA!am25JNGroJLQx8heaOFlSrr6qta9bRsHztxy1Fswho8

>>16654243
But this doesn't tell you how to draw.

>>16663930
Take a pen and do it.

>>16656428
I don't know, I kinda like not knowing what I'll get to draw. It feels somewhat refreshing for someone like me who only draw characters I'm comfortable with.


But I do agree that people need to deliver what they rolled.

Also to not make a re-roll just because you don't get what you want.
Seriously, what's the point of rolling then?

As well as using any RNG so that the thread isn't filled with "ROLL", "ROLLING", "RE-ROLL" and stuff like that.

>>16663940
Yes, but how?

>>16664428
I ended up scrapping this, but might as well post it.

How's my Tsuyu?

>>16662288
It feels so outdated now with so many touhou s but nostalgic

>>16662288
Roll

>>16662288
there are very few touhous I care about and I'm pretty sure I won't roll any of them, but oh well

>>16654890
Problem is that even if you specify that it's for drawing touhous and yell at everyone to not roll unless they're committed to drawing what they roll, nothing keeps people from just using it as "roll 4 the 2hu u wil fug 2nite" or something stupid like that. No amount of strict etiquette will keep retards from coming in and shitting up the thread with ROLLAN posts.

Personally I have no issue ignoring those posts, but I've noticed the mods taking on a philosophy of cleaning up anything that might lead to future shitposting. I guess it saves them effort in the long run.

Doing some character sheets and reworking a bit on the design of the mad scientists family I posted last thread.

And another school related stuff with 3 pizza ingredients "mascots" to do, working on the two other ones at the moment .

>>16665309
Why is he swiss cheese if he's a pizza ingredient?

i drew a cat.

>>16665892
fair question, I guess because swiss cheese is a more obvious symbol. I actually didn't come out with the general concept/design, was just asked to redraw the characters.

>>16668229
What's his hero name? The Big Cheese?

>>16668253
And this is...?

Aaaand rolling again.

>>16670168
There's so much information on learning how to draw that I can't even be bothered to look through it. I wish it was like leveling up in an RPG so I could just draw slimes until I learn to draw more challenging stuff.

>>16670491
Really nice style and shading

What can I do if each of my drawings is worse than the previous one?

>>16670683
Realize that you aren't getting worse but you are becoming more objective of your own abilities faster than they are progressing and thus causing a dissonance in between your skill and understanding. Cheer up and keep drawing, learn to appreciate every little improvement and see your artistry as a whole.

>>16670683
who this cock monger?

>>16670578
Thanks! I appreciate the kind words.

Did this with Paintschainer as a quick extra.

Also, rolling again.

>>16670707
I wish I could be this optimistic.
The worst is that I know I'm being dumb, because I draw for a couple days every couple months, but I still sit there and beat myself up the entire time I'm working on something because I don't meet my own standards and I'm going too slow and erasing too much and a million other things.
I always hear it's supposed to be nice and relaxing, but there are few things that make me feel shittier about myself like art does. I just wanna draw my favorite anime girls because no one else does.
I don't feel worse about each drawing I do, like that other guy, I just feel not-better-enough. The idea of being good eventually is why I keep coming back but actually doing it is just the worst sometimes.

>>16662288
I used random.org to roll.

I got Yoshika, but then I realized I don't like drawing her so I just did a sprite edit of the jiangshi enemies from Super Mario Land.

Working on this. I do lineart too slowly

>>16662288

>>16671292
Is this why they call her the Okuumisty?

>>16671348
No they call her the クソザコヨスズメ

>>16670748
Wow, really nice.
You have fantastic shading and depth.

>>16671292
Btw any tips on that right hand?I am unsure if the arm is supposed to go that way.

>>16671292
better slow than fast. mine always turns into chicken scratch because I have to work fast.
>>16671553
looks better than mine, add some nails for more detail

>>16671559
Ye I'm planning on working on that hand further. Don't want it to look too flat or stiff.

>>16671561
Mine turn out to be sausages, which I have to cut down and try to make thin like yours. You could at slight muscles to make sure they don't look flat if that is what you are worried about.

>>16670343
This is very promising
>>16665309
Is this the pixelnoodle drawfag? You're really fucking good. Probably you're one of the best artists ever appeared on the jayp oc threads, and trust me I've been here long enough to have seen them all

> Is this the pixelnoodle drawfag?

No, it's goldensmurf.

>>16665309
How do you get shading like that? Mine turns out to be a mess.

>>16671601
Better understanding of shadow/lightning is most of it, along with color theory.

I don't really know what you mean by either of those. Are you saying it's okay even if >>16657862 colors his doujin comic, but not if he tries to publish it as a professional colored work?

>>16664434
you press the pen to paper and then drag it around, and it'll leave lines, that after enough effort turn into drawings. it's like magic.

>>16679024

What's this kind of hair thing where the bangs are pulled back and pinned on top of the head called? I sometimes want to look it up for references but I can't ever search properly for it. .

Why some of your drawings are really good and some, like this one, are complete shit
Are you being ironic or something? what the fuck man

>>16696314
That's probably because you have no idea what "bad" and "good" means.

Its a blatant ripoff so its probably ironic.

>>16696344
>you have no idea what "bad" and "good" means
I'm not an art critic for sure, but just compare the cheese guy with the other two drawings and try to tell me they look on the same level. come on, this cat thing doesn't even have a symmetric face

I mostly draw OCs and stuff like that because I'm a huge autist but here's one of mine, the hair needs work.

I mostly draw OCs because I'm a huge autist but here's one of mine. I need to work on the hair..

>>16696672
>>16696314
The drawings are on the same technical level, but the other one hides the downsides better.

>>16696747
Can you teach me how to draw good, anon?
just kidding, I will never get good

>>16696809
I always say this, the only way to draw good is to draw all the time.
Look at this drawing I did from a year and a half ago.
I spent most of my life being terrible at drawing and that's how I got good at it!
No one is born a good artist.
You have to put some conscious effort into learning the technical side of things, anatomy, shading (which I suck at) lighting etc.
But 99% of learning to draw is drawing. If you want to git gud you have to be bad for a long long time. I draw every day and have done for most of my life, that's why my drawings are kinda OK, if I put more effort in and made more of a conscious effort to focus on the parts I struggle with instead of just drawing whatever I want I'd be a better artist, but I just draw because I love drawing.
So there anon, the only way to be good is to be bad first.

>>16696869
But anon, you have talent.
Just kidding. Talent is a meme for lazy fucking losers who refuse to put effort into something.

Thanks for the words of wisdom.

>>16696869
Wrong pic, here's the before and after ( the one I did years ago and the one I did a couple of months ago) admittedly the bad ones were worse than my actual skill level ebcause I had just bought a tablet that day and was learning how to use it but it's about right.

>>16687966

>>16696672
> this cat thing doesn't even have a symmetric face

The face is totally fine though, you doesn't even seems to know yourself what you're bitching about, the bottom left drawing that is clearly the only one fully shaded is on the same level as the cheese guy.

>>16696885
But wasn't talent proven to be real?

>>16698010
Some people have an aptitude for certain things, but nobody is born with just an innate ability to be good at something.

>>16696672
>this cat thing doesn't even have a symmetric face
So... what's wrong with that? Asymmetry is just as much of an appeal as symmetry is.

>>16698010
Real or not, "talent" doesn't mean a thing without any sort of nurturing. After all, even a mathematician genius needs to learn what "math" is before being labeled as such.

>>16698458
> Real or not, "talent" doesn't mean a thing without any sort of nurturing. After all, even a mathematician genius needs to learn what "math" is before being labeled as such.

Based on my manga series, geniuses just are incredible at everything at school without ever studying.

>>16698458
>Asymmetry is just as much of an appeal as symmetry is.
I guess this is why people that drew decently left here

>>16698812
People like who? Those ones who drew the midgets with giant tits and penises and called them lolis?

>>16698812
Yeah, with people who doesn't seem to understand artistic value around, it's hard to get a decent respond without them going "I don't like the look of this. You suck".


Anyway, we're really going off tangent here, so let me ask this at least; what, exactly, is wrong with that?

don't start arguing about smurf's shit, he really isn't worth it

How do people in these threads always know artist names? Is there some secret circlejerk where they post their names all the time?

>>16701598
> always

That's just a few recurring names.

>>16701598
These artists are usually more active in drawthreads from other boards, this reason alone is why they are so hated here.

Also some of them are midly popular so there's that too.

I will never git gud enough to draw cute girls and coolass mecha.
Just kill me.

>>16706631

It does look a bit like Akyuu, the day thing is because i'm doing a daily challenge.

Oh, I like this art style, can you post more things you've done?

>>16712022
Thanks! I'm still improving, so this is the only one that looks comparable

I drew everyone's favorite 17 year old

Thats nasty

Quick progress. Gonna stop again for now and wait till my next data cap.
I think I screwed up the arms.

guys how do I meme this?

I can't even draw a perfect circle?
How do I become the artist?

Are those dickhands?

>>16715837
They appear to have dickhands, dickfeet, and a dick hat. Artist should just copy the image.

>>16714935
The arms are quite okay, could've ended up much worse desu
Dem buttocks, though

I hope next time we won't leave out the programmers and musicians

>>16716203
>Dem buttocks
Yeah, I didn't give it much thought since I knew it would be covered by the clothes anyways. Also, I've only noticed just now how the left foot is bent at an impossible shape, like those you see when accidents happen in Olympics. Gonna have to fix that next time.

>I hope next time we won't leave out the programmers and musicians
This is partly OP's fault since he specifically put "Draw thread" instead of "OC thread" in the title.

>>16670683
Oh, here's a quick tip : if you're practicing the same drawing or doodling all day long, try not to compare the ones that came later from the ones that came ealier.
Me getting worse within the same day usually means I'm tired, one quick cup of tea and I'm drawing right again.

>>16711005
That's really cool

>>16653827
Can I make a request please?
can someone draw Rin_Kaenbyou (left) in the same pose and shape as the image on the right? You can trace if you want to I dont really care. Please and thank you!

>>16718907
rin on the right, image on the left, my mistake

>>16718907
Requests are usually frowned upon on /jp/'s drawthreads unless the artists are asking for them, but you can try asking on /v/'s or /a/'s thread, I don't think they'll mind drawing a Touhou.

>>16718961
thank you

Haven't drawn in a /jp/ draw thread in a while this time I drew Kyou from Clannad.

>>16662288
I'm just going to draw on top of zuns sprite with a mouse like the piece of shit I am

Is there anything I can do to improve the body or legs? I'm about to do lineart and it would suck if I got something wrong

>>16721520
I love how you did nazrin's shoes and the whole look of flandre, particularly her hair. All in all, cute and cool

>>16728623
How about drawing just 50% of the nose? Every time I see those drawn that way, I just can't help but think of a site that starts with T.

>>16728623
Is that one of those ff11/14 cats?

You forgot Mimi-chan.
If you don't know Mimi-chan, it appeared in the Marisa ending for PoDD.

I'm not exactly drawing anime, my man.

The second character in progress, still need to color it.

>>16730897
>I'm not exactly drawing anime,
What are you supposed to be drawing then? Or are you one of those "not Key style = not anime" types?

>>16731021
he's drawing in his own style

I'm drawing someone's cat

>>16731032
I am more than capable of drawing anime

>>16731032
You need to learn how to stylize. "Anime" style doesn't have a lack of nose details for nothing, it's because too much lines on some parts of the face just makes it ugly. It works much better in your screenshot because while the nose exists it's not anywhere near as emphasized as with your lines.

>>16731051
It's fine, this isn't the final product anyway. I'm not going to make the nose stick out like a sore thumb.

Some quick laboratory work.

Kinda finished that characters sheets work wit the mad scientists family.

>>16731129

>>16731097
Nice 3d perspective, although the middle part somehow seems "off", but It's not really noticeable though.

>>16705329
I love it

>>16731032
How is that not anime style?

>>16731040
This is less anime looking.

>>16702416
Cutest in the thread.

>>16732304
How exactly do you think anime should look?

>>16733513
>How exactly do you think anime should look?
Anime style looks like anime style. If to you, "anime" just means big eyes and faces with exaggerated angles and "realism" means smaller eyes, then I don't think I can explain it to you. FF14 is anime styled too.

Drew up a new character design for a magical girl last night

>>16724519
This is really good.

>>16733740
Reminds me of that Iris rabbit witch girl thing from that game I never played.

>>16733740
Cute
Are you planning on coloring it

>>16733780
Who?
>>16733832
Probably, I plan on making that outfit IRL so I need to know the colours of fabric I need.
It's more of a finalised version of a magical girl character I've been drawing for a while.

>>16733849
http://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=list&tags=irisu_kyouko that girl

I thought you were that artist who was obsessed with her at first.

>>16733701
You should explain yourself, then. I come to these threads for constructive criticism.

>>16734421
If that's what you want, I think you should fix the catgirl's nose too, although I don't think it's that horrible, just that it should be defined more by shading than lines. I also think her hips are a little too narrow. She also only has marks on one side of her face instead of on both. Double check a picture of someone in that pose.(I mean crossed legged and sitting) if you want to be sure you got the pose right. I don't think you should be able to see the back of the leg on the right side though. It looks completely sideways in contrast to the foot being forward.

That smirk also looks weird. I thought that before but after seeing the actual image, it looks really weird without her winking, which I suppose is why it looked so weird to me. Furthermore, while her head is tilted in the screencap, it's straight upright in the image you made, however it's only the chin. Either the face is tilted or the head is supposed to be tilted but the chin isn't tilted with it. Most likely the latter.

Re: >>16731040
It doesn't have that "I traditionally draw with inkbrush" feel where ends of lines have serif like marks and meeting lines have extra thickness and lines generally end somewhat sharply. The whole thing is too thin lined and made of short broken lines too. I think her facial curvature is too exaggerated and her eye on the right side of the image is over too far. I also think she'd benefit from having at least implied lower eyelids (and at least a little of a chin), and it's hard to tell because it gets messy, but I don't think she has enough head above her eyes. It kind of looks like it flattens out above her eyebrows and the hat is just on top of it. It sort of makes her face look higher up on her head, which lowers cuteness.

She also has 5 crystals on the far side and 6 on the near side. It's not a perspective thing either.

There's something inexpressible about her hair too, which is okay because hair varies wildly so it's probably just opinion. I think I could sum it up with something like "there's too many straight lines instead of gradual curves" or that the hair is "made of triangles instead of crescents". It's not universally that way, but it's noticeably more that way than the catgirl image, which is entirely smooth curves.

Finally I get some real criticism. It's hard to improve my art when everyone around me is below my level.

>>16734735
It's good to finally have decent criticism. People I meet online are usually below my level so I don't get any real tips. (My other post sounded condensending so I deleted.)

Pretty cool style of coloring and in general. I don't get the pose Flan is striking, but it looks really nice anyways.
>>16723824
>>16724519
Simple and cute. The colors have a light Terajin-vibe.
>>16731097
Looks good, but also somewhat off. The perspective is confusing the shit outta my eyes, especially if looking just at the thumbnail. Otherwise nice. The dirty, garish look is fitting for the characters.

Tiiiiight. Very well done, dude.

I compiled a few ideas for a Touhou Metal arrange. I'm taking a Prog-gy approach.

That's clearly not by him, look at the jap text.

I honestly could've polished it more but I got a commission coming up.

>>16693880
Seriously? It's so much better than all the other ones.

He's horrified not because it looks bad, but for a different reason.
I'd be horrified too if I had to work Phantasm hard just to get that good.

The 4th one looks the best. the 6th one is awful.

>>16744368
If you're not aiming for some slight realism, that is. 6th is just too detailed.

>>16654243
I wonder why seemingly every time online artists do this, their handwriting is hilariously childish. Is it that it's not possible to write well with those tools?

>>16744648
6th is just bad stylization; lIke how those guys that thinks adding details and realistic features to anime stuffs will make it better.

>>16745509
As a general rule people with beautiful handwriting can't draw and vice versa.

>>16745285
Pretty nice. Is the beginning supposed to sound off beat?

>>16747914
Hmm there's three answers to that.
The musicbox and guitar following different rythmical patterns is on purpose, yes, but the drum pattern will be changed as I couldn't come up with something satisfying for now.
As for the musicbox itself... no, gotta admit. I didn't bother retaking or quantizing for now so it sounds terribly off beat at the start. WIll fix that in the later version, though.

Also, nice pic. Though I gotta say her feet really are a tad too small for my tastes. The tan is a nice touch, seems like she works out a lot in the sun.

>>16745285
Although the beginning feels unsettling, it sounds good overall.

Anyway, this might be a little off-topic, but how does soundcloud's streaming work? Is it like youtube where it will pre-download the entire video into the cache all the way? Or is it like when a train is running along a track that is being constructed along the way?
The former hurts my data consumption real bad. I just hope that it runs just like how I described it in the latter because I have problems with data caps.
I usually listen to Touhou music on soundcloud while drawing. I don't want to suddenly realize that I can't save my work online because my data is all used up just from listening to music for hours.

>>16751429
Why don't you download the msic?

>>16751599
I only have an ipad. I only use it to draw, listen to music, post to 4chan, and games.

19 days after rolling, I'm still not finished.
I've decided to say "fuck it". I'll get stuck to this if I keep this up.
I'm just gonna add some cheap shadows tomorrow and then post the finished work. After that, I can finally move on and draw something else.

Don't procrastinate, anons.

>>16755981
Why are the skirt and shirt different colors?

I like how absolutely crazy her expression looks though

>>16756953
>Why are the skirt and shirt different colors?
Oh, thanks for pointing that out. Halfway through coloring, I realized that the current Marisa no longer wears black and she doesn't have a braid anymore too.
I just can't help but draw them with smiles, or it will feel wrong.

>>16755981
>>16756953
Finally! Fucking finally!
I'm done. Time to move on. I'm just gonna fix my mistakes some other time.

page 9, thread's dying, where's the new thread?

Version without the black things on the side, because it looks better this way.

Good stuff. I hope you practice more and procrastinate less.

/jp/ doesn't and shouldn't have permanent, continuous drawthread generals made right at the death of the previous.

And for the love of goodness, someone make a proper OC thread next time.

>someone make a proper OC thread next time.
I agree. We left out the anons who make games.

I still miss the flockmod threads. They can't exist at the same time as OC threads, apparently.

>>16759643
I see them get made, but they don't seem very /jp/ though.

>>16759669
They become extremely /jp/ once everyone starts drawing 2hus.
Too bad the mods don't like seeing flockmod and OC/Drawthreads at the same time.

This thread is dying, now is the perfect time for that usual anon to make a flockmod thread. Because both can exist as long as flockmod gets made first and already has 20 or more posts.
