>>1823Implying /mlpol/ isn't more than the sum of it's parts
>>1824#notalltans
>>1825bref it's the current microsecond, catch up already
>>1827/d/ is a shapeshifter and /trash/ is an anthro
>>1828but the 2 tans where still human themselves
>>1829Humans don't have tentacles or fur.
/z/ is the only board that doesn't has any human resemble. It's an abomination.
/3/ is a floating head and one of /his/-tans is a statue.
>>1831Don't take that point! Pls?
>>1831Damn it, you found the post
>>1818Stop trying to scare off good artists!
>>1833More like he took away my argument about not drawing porn. Which means I can never draw at my job ever again. Or purposely draw badly so no one will know.
>>1834Or, just don't tell them you're /mlpol/-tan
>>1834Or just try a different style. Weaver/GG/QuestAnon's done it at least five different times, and you'd struggle to find it out.
Or just get better. Honestly, your current art is dirty and unrefined, and not in the good way. Using spray for shading just doesn't work the way you use it. Experiment with brush settings, at the very least.
>>1837I'm not using spray. I'm using the pencil tool on the program I use. What would be a good way for me improve my shading? I mostly do it cause if I don't shade, everything looks too... Colors are too solid.
>>1830Meant /mlp/ and /pol/ are human. thus human baneh
>>1811This took me way too long to notice this is a 5 digit palindrome.
>>1839Well, it looks like spray. Certainly, there have been many artists that used a similar style of line for the better, but in your case it clashes with the inking in an ugly way.
And really, the best you can do is look at other art, specifically from artists in your general category. Drawfags from the 'chans. For example, Tex has a marvelous fucking style that is almost reminiscent of traditional japanese artists, one that isn't seen much anymore. Notice the incomplete lines with occasional harsh breaks, and the way he combines thin lines with darker hues for shading.
http://texdrawings.tumblr.com/ >>1843Hmmm I see what you mean. This style does give off a sense of traditionalism, I do like the way the faces are shaped along with the shape of the bodies.
I'll see what I can do with this, but no promises. I would like for my art to get better, even if it's just my hobby. You seem to have a sense for art as well, are you an artist? If you are, I'd love to have a look at some of your work!
Also, can you elaborate on the clash? Maybe I'm just dense, but I don't see much of a clash.
>>1844It clashes because the pencil gives the shading a texture where there shouldn't be any. It makes every shade seem porous and dirty like... well, like it's covered in dirt. A solid brush with 50% opacity would do much better than one with a texture unless, of course, you want it to have a texture. Even then, shading shouldn't have much of a texture anyway. It's not like shadows or light is so uneven in the real world.
And no, not really. I'd like to draw, but tablets are expensive as shit. I've just been around drawfags enough to have a penchant for nitpicky artistic analysis.
Or hell, just look at the sub's /art/.
https://mlpg.co/art/ [insert loomis, peception/skill, >but it's my style here]
>>1845Oooooh! That makes sense! Never really thought about it like that. Well, I can keep that in mind when the next pages come out. Except this coming up one. I think the dirty solid shading gives it a darker sense, grittier. Which kinda fits since it's a high stress point in the story.
Also, these are the tools I have available to me when I draw. I like using Bamboo Paper to draw, it's free and I like the ability to mix my colors and have a simple to use drawing pad.
>>1846On that matter, there are plenty of tools you can use, each with their own designed purpose and preferred style. Photoshop, obviously, is a jack of all trades but mostly centered around image editting rather than pure drawing, though it also has its own benefits. Cons, it's fucking expensive.
Then there's GIMP, which is shit and I've used for most of my life. Jack of all trades, master of absolutely nothing. Free. Workable. GNU, if that's your thing.
Then you get into the weird shit. Fire Alpaca's been a favorite of some artists I know, along with Painttool SAI, both of which are good. Intended for sketching and drawing, they have some interesting control schemes that might make the process more streamlined. Then there's some kind of gimmicky thing with a fractal canvas that I can't rightfully remember.
Flash and Toon Boom for animation. Graphics Gale for pixel art. Paint Shop Pro as an alternative to Photoshop. I know there are more, but I don't have a memory for that.
>>1847Yeah, but here's the thing. I don't have a drawing thing for a computer. All I have is a mouse for my computer and that fucks up my hand. I just stick to my tablet, since I already have multiple styluses and it's like I'm drawing with a pad of paper like in the old days.
>>1848You can't hook it up? Interesting.
>>1849No, what I mean is, I don't have one of those you hook up to a computer. I use an actual tablet, an iPad.
>>1850Quick googlerino, there's plenty of software that either directly interfaces an iPad with a computer or turns it into a second display, even for Windows.
>>1854>Sudden deathThought it'd go on a bit longer, desu.
>>1856I know. I just thought the feud would last a bit longer before that, since it took a good two weeks before the mods shut it down.
>>1854Yay!
>>1857No, they shut it down early morning April 6
>>1854Your comics are fantastic, and I can't look away when I see one.
>>1860Me like that idea. Ill see what I can whip up.
Also mlpol-tan, Can I make a request for just PNG faces of /pol/ and /mlpol/ ? I want to fish and need to make GR15 friendly bait
>>1865Wait a minute.... Who is that..?
Please let it be nice to our /mlpol/-tan.
>>1867Now I am concerned, but this is because it has a name now and I don't know what it truly means.
>is it good or is it bad? >the images I found wasn't the most reassuring ones.I still hope it is nice.
>>1868Checked! And kek'd at the furry Saytr
>>1865Part 28. Pity party.
Jesus fucking Christ I have been trying to post this fucking page for 5 fucking hours but my wifi is fucking atrocious right fucking now. Fuck.
>>1870Yay!
We thank you for your time
>>1870>5 fucking hours but my wifi is fucking atrocious right fucking now. Fuck.Wew sounds bad either way was worth the wait.
The story keeps going on and on, this is probably the most invested I have been with the board-tans and thats saying something since I go full autist during the winter balls.
>>1870Have you tried using a VPN? If your ISP is throttling your connection, that should resolve your connection issue.
Have a cleaned up reaction image from newest page.
