Frequently Asked Questions
>Where can I download brushes and CSP assets?Resources such as /dbag/ are easy to find online.
>How do I schedule my art?Professional artist's schedules are easy to find online, however these may be unsustainable long term and it might be better to use them for references for you to build your own rather than attempting to follow them to a T.
>Is drawing furry or porn profitable? Will it give me clout?It can be, but the market is incredibly saturated and coomers and furries already have artists they want to commission. You will be competing against thousands of people, consider what makes you stand out and if you really want to sink time and effort into something you may not enjoy even a little.
>Questions regarding AIBoth the AI thread in /m/ or the AI Debate thread might be more suitable.
>What is this style called/who is this artist?Use reverse image search (yandex, tineye, etc.) or the Help Me Find thread.

>>2577851It only happened because of some self hating troon snitch that tattletaled on tumblr. Who knows if that gendie is still lurking here, I did suggest that nonas figure out a new tag to identify themselves with earlier before the event started but nothing happened

If that is the case then kek. Dumbasses have no idea how YCHs work, and that we can just set shit up early
anyway. (it is not the case)

How do you nonnas improve your traditional art skills? For example: what is the best technique for coloring with pencils? Or shadow with normal black pencils?
Did you improve independently (self help book and videos) or did someone help you in a art class or one on one? (Or maybe both)

>>2578362>How do you nonnas improve your traditional art skills? I recently got into acrylics. Like,
hardcore got into instead of elementary school tier enjoying myself putting pigment on canvas. Truly the key is to look up stuff on youtube. Just dedicate yourself to looking up random video made by people that are like Bob Ross but better at explaining things and copy what they do.

>>2578424Shape language autists are such a cancer, these ugly designs never look good and instead look amateurish and corporate. They think shape design is the only thing that matters, so as long as you make your character round like a balloon or square like a fridge its clothes or hair doesnt matter. There is a very popular youtube video on youtube that preaches about the importance of shape language, meanwhile picrel is them ''fixing'' a character. The ''improved'' version is the right one that looks like a tranny btw. I dont know how these retards manage to fuck up such a simple concept as shape design, which is meant to enhance a good design.

No. 2579588
>>2578424I blame the obsession with shape language on Tumblr back in the day. Everyone was going through an anti-anime phase and same face syndrome was a popular topic. It turned into those Homestuck character line ups where everyone tried to have the most unique headcanon for the characters (the female characters always conveniently still had a small cute face and hourglass figure though until drawing them like hulking troons became popular) which then infected every other fandom
You can always tell who's really phoning in shape language in their art, there's definitely people who understand it well but I feel a lot use it as a crutch to avoid learning their fundies

Ok so nonna, about erotica:
I like to draw erotica/sexual themes because for me erotica or sexual stuff is either animalistic as in raw action (esp. nudity, I like to draw nudity as the simply state of existing), connection for two persons or simply having fun. Sex and flirting in fun but of course, me drawing erotica gets me exposed to countless moid that like my characters. I only have girl ocs and of course my public pages are public to get engagement but how I can get my erotica art less appealing to moids? So far what I noticed is:
>Moids like embarrassed or surprised situations like uwaah! You walked in me changing! Oh no, this monster is going to fuck me!
>Moids like characters looking at them, not complicity. They like titty character staring at them or at the genitalia of other males
>If it's yuri, they like both girls looking at the viewer
>In straight fucking, only the cock is needed, they don't like to see another moid's face
>Casual nudity has to include a random fetish for them, that's over ly exaggerated (ex. a nude girl but she has weirdly detailed feet)
>Of course, ahegao or weird turtle faces, sweat clouds, overly blushed areas
So far these are my points about what they like but doing a complete 180 on this stuff, puts me into tumblr style, weird tif art. So far my reach got slightly better when I drew confident women that do not look at the viewer but I wonder if anynonna here has some other tips?
No. 2579615
>>2579606And? Yes, I want my miniscule niche, what's strange about it? My question is: how do I make erotica (which is different than straight up mindless porn but I guess that if you cannot tell the two apart, then you probably don't understand what I do) appealing to women or towards the female gaze more? I don't care about popular shit because I already do popular shit under a different name and I know what the average girl/woman on the internet likes, I want to know how to NOT to appeal to men without going full tumblrina/twitter art because not only I don't want to do ugly shit (I refuse to give moids pretty things), I don't want to learn a new artstyle. Is it really that bad trying to fight off this shit? I don't care about how big my public is gonna be or niches, I'm here to get some opinions about patterns and stuff that men don't like so they would fuck off, they aren't even useful but if I block them, I can say bye bye to my career and my side gig, I'm also a crypto so I know what I'm going through, I just want a more curated space.

Actual question; why are skinny and tall/elongated drawings of humans universally seen as more attractive? As soon as it's any level of stylized/cartoony like fashion drawings or in anime it just looks better to people if the character is skinny and super tall. Usually what in reality would be comically long legs like picrel is just accepted as normal and attractive. It seems weird because people don't usually yearn for comically long legs the same as they're into big boobs or whatever. Like proportionally so much of the body is put into the legs… idk I'm definitely overthinking it.

No. 2579630
>>2579627Not only that but most women into self-sexualization are super mega pickmes who would cancel
nonny at the mere hint of misandry. The only way to appeal to women is drawing pastel pink moeblobs with big fat tits like that ugly shit super sonico. But that's also going to attract tons of moids.
No. 2579671
>>2579625Yeah I also noticed that men don't like women just existing out of their ahegao fantasies kek
>>2579631I already keep my proportions realistic (or maybe on the more cartoonish style but always balanced because I don't draw realism) but the fact is that they see shit where it isn't. Just like I don't believe in modesty shit, I don't believe in only drawing fridge bodies with a bedsheet would make them scram but since they always rely on fantasy and since I'm not a porn brainrotted moid, I wonder what kills those fantasies without limiting myself. We already limit ourselves too much for moids (in the industry, people told me to not too make bodies too detailed or drawing nipples in general because men would harass irl artists because they would come up and say weird shit at signing sessions like what the fuck lol)
I just really, really like women and I like bodies. I like to allow them to exist in my art in a non pornified way and if you,
>>2579632 , believe that all sexuality or sex is porn then I'm sorry for your sad view of it, if you actually believe that two people having intimacy that's carried on by feelings and mutual attraction is the same as coomslop with titty characters and tentacles, I'm sorry for you. There's a difference in being antiporn (which I am) and being sex negative. Sex is fun, can be a nice moment, can help people discover themselves and that's the vibe I want to give in my drawings, that was my question and you said abloobloo you want to cather to moids ablobloo as if they're the only ones to enjoy sex kek and pretty drawings are not only for men, stop kicking your own box because the differences are there, I just asked how to make them more obivous.

You are stupid if you think men see the beauty in the female porn. Playboy didnt show bush in their magazine until the 80s and even then most centerfold continued to be just naked women. Its still porn. Sorry to burst your bubble but it's the truth. Women who enjoy sex like sexy husbandos, not looking at naked women.

nonny, yes. erotica and sex are connected because they are the same thing. Erotica and porn is NOT. Porn is a manifactured product that's aimed at a consumer for their pleasure only, if there's a sex scene in a book or movie that portraits, even explicit-ally (I'm an esl retard) two people being invested in each other or just naked, chilling, doesn't automatically mean porn due to their nature. Nudity isn't automatically porn, women's bodies aren't porn, rape isn't porn because everything needs, again, CONTEXT. If you can't grasp the CONTEXT, then you are media illiterate, that's it. Sex is a natural part of humanity, as well sexual attraction, porn stemmed from puritan views and weird moid projecting their shit morality. We are born naked. Yes, our society got pornified, no, having sex and drawing it is not automatically porn. I'm feeling like I'm explaining this stuff to a retarded kid, I'm tired.

I was in love with someone's art style many years ago, it was unique and soulful to me but she changed it to one that skinwalks a catalog of popular coom artists. I want to keep her old style alive, so I stole it (technique, not actual works). She's been inactive for years and deleted her old work, whether that makes it better or worse. Picrel is not her, just another artist with copycats. Hope she's doing okay but if she isn't using it anymore, it's free real estate.

Please let's bring back bullying in art spaces. 2 to 5 years ago, these "autists" didn't exist and everyone adapted and grew up on a silent etiquette in art spaces, losing art sites like newgrounds, deviantart and tumblr (yes this is still up at a fraction of what it used to be) and making everything social media based created these entitled monsters, this one in particular believes that you have to be her friend but at the same time she is taking a social media break, what the fuck. I can give you countless examples of people that do not understand that artists are merely workers and not random people that are your friends, I miss less connected times and people being more on the shy side of autism instead of being entitled. I have these problems with (surprise!) furry customers (they're the most paying people and I'm cleaning their dirty money by putting them in my terf piggybank) but oh god, after years of art being not only art but useless and weird conversation, I'm totally burned out, we need another space to simply be.

>>2579940I agree with the point about the faces being cropped out in the earlier image. That and the fact that the women look like twins and have the same kind of "cherubic" face.
Women seem to like detailed, expressive, unique faces more than men, who prefer having more generic or minimized faces (hence coomer art styles typically having super-detailed bodies and tiny heads with cartoony faces). Men also like more childlike features on women (gross), whereas women who like women seem to prefer more mature features (not speaking for straight women, some seem to want to project on tiny cherubic women, but just speaking from a f/f perspective). Though anon might think having unique facial features are too TIF-y lol, having adult-looking and well-characterized faces in focus is something men tend to find offputting.

>>2578695NTA but the "overdesign" is easy to avoid, as I'm very sure Genshin and other gachas do it on purpose to make the character look expensive. It's different if it's something ornamental and decorative, but excessive on a story-backed character.
Detailed or simple, the design of a character should serve to tell their story, either their own or the world around them. The Genshin and similar gacha designs don't do that; they're designed to rob an addict's wallet.

who is a tif but honestly I loved her art too much to care became best friends with another tif with an artstyle comparable to that of a literal ten year old despite being in her mid 20s and a very outwardly spedtard tier way of writing the characters from the fandom they were in and I watched as she parasitically sucked away at everything that made the admirable artist so great- her letting her insert her shitty writing and headcanons into all her subsequent work and her artstyle plummeting to boring tasteless shit despite it so unique and inspiring before. She fucked off and barely posts anymore but I’m addicted to checking on her friend to see whatever new shit she has to pump out and seethe about it. I’ve been doing it for a couple years at this point and have speeded about it at great lengths on this site before. I also wish I could stop but I’m still too autistic about the characters she ruined

>>2581206maybe i think this way to hype myself up or cope with the loneliness of being gc in a gendie fandom, but there's something so powerful about being a
terf and consuming… even enjoying! content by gendies. my main fandom is a webseries with a HUGE gendie fandom, like it's expected for you to become a person of gender after being in a while (which is so fucking sad!) and some fans eventually went to work on the webseries, soooo many of them gendies, eventually adding their poison in the content (which is so fucking bittersweet!). it reminds me of homestuck in that context, so i kind of see myself in that girl. and of course there's the constant overflowing stream of trans gcs and fanart and memes and it's all so fucking tiring… but at the end of the day i think it's kinda funny i can enjoy their shit, make silly little fanart (that doesn't get any attention because it isn't coated in thirty layers of poorly designed pride flags) and just pretend to go along with the tq+ stuff, meanwhile these pussies would absolutely explode if a friend or idol of theirs liked a microsecond of a harry potter movie, how ironic!

>>2581829No it's definitely for real, though the point is that they don't notify you. Usually they try to play it off as just random glitchiness, and when they do admit shadowbanning is real they often claim it's only meant for bot accounts and any human who gets shadowbanned has been the
victim of an unfortunate error. Anyone talking about how shadowbans are used deliberately to silence legitimate users is smeared as a conspiracy theorist. Alternatively some have admitted they use shadowbans against perceived "trolls" and otherwise "harmful" users, and if you complain then you must be a troll too.
IDK about twitter's implementation but shadowbanning is verifiable on reddit and tumblr. New reddit accounts start out shadowbanned a lot (probably to do with whether they like your email domain (anything not gmail must be a throwaway for a spammer, right?) and your past account history), so if you post something and check it while logged in, it will look normal, but if you log out and check, the comment isn't there. If you message the subreddit mods (and they're decent, competent people), they'll usually tell you outright that your account is shadowbanned sitewide and manually approve your comment. On tumblr, users who are shadowbanned can't send messages or mention other users, and their comments and asks aren't received, and their blogs don't show up in searches, and when they interact with any post they don't show up in the notes, and their original posts won't show up on their follower's dashboards.

Twisted Disaster did another video and even though she started out fine, she still ends ups saying something dumb and even delusional in her case. For starters, it's so annoying how she says that the world is currently on fire. She's been saying this a lot recently, more than likely because she kept hearing it from her retarded zoomer friends or is just spending too much time on Twitter but nonetheless, I can't stand when westerner people say this because it's just tone deaf and not true. I'd understand if she lived in a place like Iran where things really are unstable and scary because of the war but no. Granted she did have the California fires but even according to her, her area wasn't affected by it as she didn't have to evacuate at all so I mean, I just can't help but feel like she's just being an overly dramatic dumbass.
As the video kept going, she talks about AI and her take, while not anything special, was okay but then she sprinkled in some delusion. She talked about how frustrated she gets when she talks to people around her age or older about what she does for work which is "being an artist" and how these people don't tend to take her seriously and would say things like how it's good that her husband has a real job to bring stable income into their household and she says that she's been doing freelance art for a decade and has been making enough money to cover her bills and to that, I call bullshit as someone who does listen to her streams from time to time.
I don't deny that she probably has been able to make enough to cover things like her phone, internet, and insurance but let's be real, if her husband didn't have a decent high(er) paying job, there's no way her art would cover her expenses to where she'd be living as comfortably as she does. She lives in southern California near Los Angeles and I know the rising costs of living there is ridiculous, even she's complained about that a good few times.
Anyway, I just think it's pathetic that even after all this time, she still feels the need to lie about the reality of things in her life. If her art really was able to cover all her costs consistently, she wouldn't be trying to find an actual stabler job which there's no shame in but seriously, just own it, it's fine. Most of us are doing just that working a conventional job while doing art on the side. I think she just has insecurity because her siblings actually got real jobs and are doing quite well for themselves as I think she said her brother went to law school and her other brother works a conventional job that he's moved up in and they make enough money and more to have a stable lifestyle, at least much more stable than her own and I can understand feeling a little insecure there but flat out delusion isn't the way to go.
That aside, you get to see her abuse the symmetry even more so er, enjoy? kek.

It's very easy to read and enjoy Homestuck on its own (not the epilogues, not the sequel, and not the dating sim slop) as someone who doesn't subscribe to gender ideology. Meanwhile these children shit their diapers when Karkat says retard or John calls Bro white.

I need a second opinion on this nonnas, sometimes i draw sfw artworks and other times i draw more nsfw stuff (nothing too explicit, just spicy) but most of my followers followed for the sfw stuff, and i've been posting more and more spicy content, should i just create a new account to post nsfw stuff separately or continue with the same account and just post whatever i like? I'm torn apart because i don't have many followers on my main already, so growing followers on a secondary account would be a chore.
No. 2583704
>>2583622Depends on the goal. If your spicy stuff is BL, I would recommend making a second account. There's been some weird children online (assuming they're kids) harassing people for drawing BL. Everything else it would depend on if you're
trying to get views and association to your spicy content. It may attract an unwanted audience like how some nonas ITT hate moid followers. That would warrant a second account where you can post to your heart's content without fear of the unwanted attention (selective viewership). If you want to post for the numbers, I say just continue as you are.

>>2583622In my opinion, you should keep it all on one account, just because I think it's kind of based when artists are bold enough to have their nsfw and sfw accounts on the same page. But like
>>2583704 said, a second account can be nice if you care about that sort of thing. Ultimately though I think it's cool haha.

nonas, tumblr nona from last week here. i kinda followed what you all suggested (being more social by reblogging some stuff on the fandom i'm into, being more careful with the tag placement, etc etc). posting on Sundays boosts posts a lot too! and making a fresh post is better than reblog as well. i'd appreciate more tips to conquer this beast though!

>>2584201>it's easier for racists and pedophiles to connect over shared hobbies than it is women who admit sex is binaryHonestly what’s stopping us from creating a discord exactly? I’ve seen lolicon servers get banned because they had channels dedicated to posting porn, some of it was loli and that’s against discord rules. Afaik there are no rules on discord that’s against having
terf views right? All you have to do is just follow the rules and the server should be fine.
Are people just afraid of being discovered and getting cancelled on social media? I’ve said it countless times here before, but cancellations don’t do jack shit. The most people could do is send anon hate and have a bunch of tifs block you, people will forget and move on very fast. I can understand if you’re a famous artist in the industry, or hoping to break it into the industry which would blacklist you.
Maybe nonas can just use aliases when using discord so you don’t have to link to your social media accounts if you’re worried about that, and just DM your socmed usernames to other nonas who you’ve grown close with and trust. I also like the idea
>>2584370mentioned, posting your hand and a drawing is a good way of getting obvious moids out. I know of another anonymous female only board that also made people post their hands as proof kek

also, now that i think about it, there's definitely tranny cocksuckers on lc that stay here on any thread to get dirt on whoever they dislike but jump at any opportunity to shit on a "

No. 2584514
>>2584500not to be accusatory but the timing of the discord being planned on summer and nonas being really quick to approve of a discord makes it seem that many were not around during the creation and downfall of multiple LC discord servers created years ago.
You're better off making connections via the friend finder and making the group from there than starting from scratch and recruiting from a LC thread

This talk about creating a discord is strange because this
>>2584517 thread and the critique thread exist and we are hopefully about to experience the first CowFight event soon, there's no reason to go off-site that wouldn't have similar risks as here. Maybe you guys could email each other using friend finder and see if you actually like each other before starting a server kek.

>>2581271>>2581278aww thank you nonners. i have a lot of feelings about the topic at hand so i suppose it bleeds into the way i use words. here's my last snoopy pic so i don't get banned for avatarfagging kek.
>>2581327i don't play along either. i like to "misgender" nb characters or ignore their existence and none of my tra friends have suspected anything afaik. i'm sure you're not completely alone in your fandom nona, knowing the pushback they'll get many people stay silent.
>>2581916exactly, at the end of the day i'm a social creature and i want to discuss the media at hand with fellow fans! i'm kinda shy of mentioning my own fandom since it's even more riddled with kids than ut/dr. it's supposed to be an all ages series after all, and i've kinda outgrown it but i've been here for so long it's so hard for me to leaveeee kek. it's not the cookie run fandom but think of it like the cookie run fandom, they have a lot of member overlap too.
>>2582081man she's a fucking loser and i thought she was some outspoken stacy. sigh.
>>2584080i'm lucky that the friends i've got are fairly normie, at least normie compared to the majority of the fandom. and also we're older than the fandom average, late teens to early twenties, so they're less likely to get really brainwashed by the gendie virus. the most radical thing they do is saying trans rights or using they/them unironically, beggars can't be choosers. it does get isolating when i want to vent with someone i personally know about this whole gender ideology bullshit, i use lc for my gc fix but it's not really the same. at the end of the day i can't really say i'm miserable, but i do feel a little silly by partaking in a fandom that would advocate for my (virtual) hanging if they knew how i actually felt (but it's made of really young people so you can only hope to grow out of those views fast). i'm pretty sensitive so i wouldn't know how to deal with social death, at least i'm unpopular so i wouldn't have to lose a huge following and possible money source.
i like the idea of a server in the sense of improving and giving each other advice in a more personal form, posting the artwork we actually share on our named accounts (shoutout to kirbyanon and that other nona who makes fanart for the homie game). but i'm also very paranoid, and also worried that many of us would clash because we don't have many things in common outside of art and being anti troon.

So on Artfight, I'm trawling through characters to draw with my friend. She discovered there's an incel tag and it's fucking blatant misogyny everywhere. Picrel. I don't get how these female artists draw these characters and live with themselves afterwards. They must really just hate themselves.
