MAKE DRAW THREADS GREAT AGAIN

At the end of the last draw thread a few anons and I were talking about why these threads have been progressively getting worse and worse. I want to make a meta thread and try to put a schedule together, with a schedule draw fags would already know when the next thread will happen and can be ready beforehand. People would also have time to think of a good request for the thread instead of half baked ideas/fetish porn.
I'd also want to discuss possible rules for futures threads like:
You know, stuff like that. I kinda also would like to get a rough head count of the number of draw fags we actually have currently as well.
Any one here interested in helping/giving suggestions?

draw a benis

draw a anime benis

autistic shit like this is why draw threads are shit

if you want to draw shit then draw shit and if you want to request something then request it without getting so fucking adamant about both of that shit, they're /4am/ threads but with drawfags instead stop trying to treat them as anything else

The easiest way to make drawthreads great again is by not fucking making them
There's a reason pretty much everyone stopped doing shit in those and you're the part of that.

Just make drawthreads and requestthreads seperate.
If it worked in south africa it should work here.

YES
YES
YES
YES
YES

They are pretty much dead already.

yee

I know they were shit but I don't get the euphoria.
Care to explain?

...

If you really want to draw here, join or make an /i/ board. If no one wants to join, that's your problem.

draw me a penis

rgg when

I haven't drawn anything in these threads for a very long time, but I always check the thread at least once if I happen to notice one, just in case.

Kinda kills the motivation to draw here when your art is completely sidelined by stupid drama or some guy who decides to draw some porn requests.

Admittedly I don't remember if it was ever any different, maybe there were just so many draw threads that I didn't get enough time to care about it.

We already have 3 dead artboards.

draw a benis

the first couple months after the first exodus were ok.

then marco neko, makotofag and a bunch of other autists showed up and everything went to shit

draw threads are full of horrible tumblr artists and fetish cancers

please let waifu/husbando threads be next

Drawfags getting upset over other drawfags, who knew.
Seriously, this whole thing was a mess. It reminds me of new America. SJWs(Dramafags) trying to paint all black men(drawfags) as democrats(anti-drawthreads) when there were drawfags and normal anons on both sides. Hell If I care to research any further.

Yeah there's always the few people who consistently make the same requests and burn out whatever drawfags actually show up.

Then a few people try to make some arbitrary rules about what constitutes a request, which is then turned around by the few fags that request their waifu shit all the time.
It's one thing when it's a drawfag saying "what should I draw guise?", it's another when people are using drawthreads for free commissions.

The problem is that you can pull every last inch of attention from the thread and even attract some randoms from outside the thread by drawing a pair of tits.

If you happened to post your drawing somewhere near that moment, your drawing will basically get completely ignored as the thread rapidly fills with muh dikk replies.

So why are GG generals still going? :/

Retard detect

There was just too much shit to filter through.
Fucking box posters and penis requesters.
It was never even funny.
Together with requests the ratio of shit to deliver with effort was something like 200 to 1 posts.

delivery with effort*

INTRODUCTION
Check your reading comprendè amigo

BODY 1
???

BODY 2
You know 8ch natively supports emojis, right? In any case I would have posted Applejack from MLP (the orange one) shrugging but I don't have it saved on my phone, unlike my beefy rig. You use reaction images to draw attention to your post or show EMOTION which I managed to do with text; and yet! Someone (not me) got completely assblast triggered over it and decised to epic downvote me. I'll let you figure out who that was.

CONCLUSION
You are a faggot, should lurk more, and its obvious you only started posting after the 3rd exodus (more like 3rd reich, amirite? (more like reich))

I feel like if you want to make a request you must first submit your own rendition of whatever the fuck it is that you're asking for. That way you'll acquire a newfound appreciation of just how fucking insane some of your requests actually are.

F- for your essay

Isn't there a drawing board for helping people starting out? What's it's name, really want to learn how to draw.

The fuck out.jpg

You fucking pricks likely didn't even read the OP before making your dumb meme requests.

He literally means "F-" mate, as in the grade.

Now you're the retard.

OH BOY now the thread is really off the rails

Come on people get a grip

Hey user, has it occurred to you that maybe drawfags just don't like these threads anymore?
The drawfags we still actually have on this site either don't post drawings anymore or dick around in other threads from time to time.
These threads basically turned into free commission threads. Most of the requests are sexual, many of them aren't even related to video games.

Dubs of truth.

draw a benis

take your pick. All of them are pretty slow but /dpd/ hardly moves at all

...

This, basically. Trying to regulate something like this will only spoil it in the long run. You might as well make a discord and circlejerk there for all it's worth.

Draw this again

Here's a suggestion, why not just have a new rule to ban all the shitposters in these kinds of generals? Like
Honestly though, I don't understand how people want drawthreads to go full on dead, instead of trying to improve. If anything, they could potentially be oc machines.
Why not just model drawthreads after adgd generals, where anons post progress on any vidya related artworks, or get tips and help on their drawings. If a drawfag specifically is open to commisions, then someone can offer a /r/equest. That way, the threads don't clog up with shit. Also, any drama that starts appearing on the thread can be ruled under shitposting.
.t drawfag who actually likes drawthreads.

hey Holla Forums, what are you drawing?

Right now I'm working on a woodcut as a gift for a friend. I'd be open to requests if there was an actual drawthread, but it seems like most people want a no fun allowed board.

I have a suggestion.
Why don't you try drawing a video game character playing a video game you think they might enjoy?

unnecessarily muscular girls

Not for you faggots.

Animation concepts.

I'm guessing you're going to burn/cut/carve the sketch into the wood itself? Who are those characters/people supposed to be? Looks pretty good.

I could try doing that. Sure. I am shit at drawing, though. In the mean time, have a face.

Show us something then.

Care to share?

Trying to remember how hands, dicks, and vaginas work.

well if you want me to

Ya, it's a woodcut. It's Simon and Garfunkel, from bookends. What are you working on right now?

Did you draw that? You're pretty good.

Nothing. I am drawing shitty doodles of faces as you can see.

Go be a jew somewhere else.

Yea I did, I made the mistake of posting it on art sites too early tho, it's barely getting attention and I can't get easy commission money like that

studying art. also just drew this skeleton/slavic lich as october started

drawthread r shit lol

sage

I'm a bit embarassed to post them because they're no good, though part of that comes from trying to work fast.

That would require mods to do something about it.

These looks nice, man.

Then again, i am no drawfag, so what do i know, eh?

Pony porn.

You have no self-respect, user.

The first 3 frames look like she's kicking with her right leg while twisting counterclockwise from the top, so it's weird to see her twist in the other direction on the last frame.

Is this earth bending?
:^)

Hey, it was 2014. It was the cool thing to draw at the time.

Reread that guy's post. He asked what you're drawing now.
Dude, it was never cool to draw ponyshit.

>>>/pone/
You're not even ashamed or else you wouldn't bring it up.

undertale porn lel

kind of got discouraged from participating in draw threads cause of self important requestfags deriding people's kindness.

if one's art is so worthless why should one waste time drawing shit for free for you.

I was trying to convey the force of the kick, maybe I should leave the main part of the untwist to the recovery frames.


No, this is nun boxing

Draw threads are pointless. Most OCs don't even come from them anyway.

Dude, I'm sorry, but these are all really shit.

They aren't mine.
Doesn't negate the fact that draw threads are nothing more than glorified, ungrateful, entitled as shit waifufags asking for free artwork.

/requesting/
So a while ago someone made planetside 2 versions of that pic, I was wondering if someone could make something in a military style, maybe something russian. or jewish

here

also,


are correct posts

Then someone should start trying to steer requests towards something else. Instead of griping, if you're a drawfag start saying "I"m drawing X, Y, and Z. Throw requests at me!". Man people like to complain but nobody does anything to change what they have a problem with.

So I was going to draw a video game character playing a video game that they would enjoy. I thought of drawing wario sitting at a slot machine or something, but I realized that would take a long fucking time so just settle for this mugshot I drew after spending like 30 minutes trying to figure out how the fuck wario's skull would actually look in relation to his face.

I agree with you, but correct me if I'm wrong here.
It seems like you wanted to contribute with those MLP drawings, but when people reacted negatively you suddenly say drawthreads are useless.

look at this friend throwing shade

Wew, I fucked up.

/r/equesting

Look within yourself. You know it to be true.
Or not, you type like you're from blacktwitter.

Hmm? Oh, no. I'm not flustered over that. I knew the reaction I would get and just wanted to shitpost my old, cringey shit.

If it came of that way, my apologies. I still stand by my previously made point.

Anything that we can do? or is it out of our hands as hotpockets

I don't think so.
the most autistic request fags just get angry when you delete their shit and spam the thread even harder

Unless you have a janitor watching over every drawthread made from this point on, this is only an issue that can be solved by anons. I fear hotpocket interference may make things worse.

GET OUT KIKE REEEEEEEEEEEEE

well other than banning things, I was thinking of holding a few art events. Like maybe an art competition between Holla Forums, /a/, /cyber/, etc

oh hey, was thinking of PMing you this thread

hotpocket-wise don't think there's much you can do except if threads get too drama-filled.

art events are good. are we getting one for the 8ch anniversary like we did last year?

That sounds like fun. If the other boards would even participate in such a thing. Though, if I am remembering correctly, website wide events don't usually pan out well. Like the whole Board-Tan Wacky Races thing.

The wacky races were a really good time though.

I opened this thread thinking surely, in 80 replies there'd be at least one or two interesting requests I might spend an hour or two on tonight. It's raining outside, about to put the kettle on and y'know it'd be alright to sit down and just draw some shit anonymously.

Instead in those ~80 replies there's exactly one request. Why are you faggots in such a tizzy over something as simple as a fucking draw thread? Don't answer that because I don't care. Just put some requests out there, for fuck's sake.

that would not be a draw thread then nignog.
an event could work tho.

But they literally never happened?

I thought that only died because Josh killed /sp/

this isn't a drawthread, it's a meta thread about drawthreads. didn't you even bother reading the OP?

I doubt Holla Forums's mods would get involved, they've got sticks up their ass.
What about smaller boards like /m/ and /just/? Assuming they even have drawfags.

...

Lr2read

I'll DM codemonkey and see if we can do something.


Well one of the things I wanted to do in 2014 was to have competitions with other boards. sadly Josh fucked up everything, and despite Codemonkey fixing mostly everything the smaller more niche communities haven't been populated that much.

I'm hoping that when Codemonkey actually releases the overboard that these smaller boards will be more populated.


the BO of Holla Forums and I get along whenever I go on IRC. I should probably send him a message or something. haven't been on IRC for at least a solid 6 months or so.

Produced a lot of good OC though.

He’s alive? Ask him why he’s such a cocksucking kike. Direct question; no embellishment. You’ll be able to understand his answer more than most, and if you could report back that’d be awesome. That he refuses to respond to his community should be grounds for revocation of his ownership, and that he refuses to ban the mods we’ve proven are paid shills is even more telling.

Thanks for YOU, at least, acting like a BO should.

Wasn't there an idea to draw Wacky Races cards for each board at some point?

A monthly art challenge would be cool.

As for Draw Threads, I think it should be less requesting and more OC.
I.e. if the Draw Thread says "no requests" and someone asks for something, report them.

And for god sake, send some more artists to /vp/

Good thing we don't have that because then it would just be a dictatorship by Hotwheels Jim Codemonkey revoking board owners he didn't like.
Otherwise, I support mark asking that question even if it cuts off his talk channel with Holla Forums's BO which he didn't use as far as I know.

Honestly, it's just his way of approaching the board. Would I like to see Holla Forums become more hands off? Yes, however the best thing to do is maybe make a spin off of Holla Forums and offer things counter to Holla Forums, think of it like trying to merge the Holla Forums of the left with the Holla Forums of the right.

Here, have some more shitty doodles. I fucking hate my behavior. I have spent about an hour and a half now just fucking around and not doing anything of substance. I could use that time to work on creating something of fucking value, but instead I just mindlessly doodle. Why?

I need a lesson plan or something.

would you withstand being art gulag'd into shape? most people break down on that point. you need a balance of learning to draw better and also learning to have fun.

I am a shit human being.

today's a day as good as any to change

Nah.

you're such a cool detached dude I want to suck your penis

That's pretty gay, user.

Sounds like somebody isn't comfortable with their sexuality~

I'm not comfortable with dudes trying to suck my dick.

Yeah by the way, taking a request.

these threads are for free artwork
who would go to a drawthread for commissions instead of a decent artist, and i like waifu requests

draw a shark with tits

why even bother

Draw sucking your penis while you slit your throat.

Well, I don't know exactly what would make a good request. I really never had anything done on any drawthread.
But, maybe, if they only happen once per month, more drawfags would be interested.

...

whoever said drawthreads died were clearly wrong

...

bretty gud

tell draw fags to go to one of their 3 dead boards if they want to draw. its for the better.

that benis needs a stand, though.

Can someone draw Mega Man robot masters?

...

If you think too much about it, you'll die.

I'm going to bed.

shouldn't the stand be the balls?

...

Geddit

...

I'm glad we had this little thread

Crap, forgot the hat badge.

The way I see it, it's perfectly possible to drawfag outside of drawthreads anyway. I don't like any of the requests in the thread I'll just fuck off and draw something for another thread or misinterpret them on purpose. There's no business in getting mad at requests.

Just let it be, eventually we'll get good threads rolling again. Or at least, not full-on shit ones.


I'm cheating like a motherfucker and not learning how to properly make a damn comic by not drawing two or three pages and jumping straight to the porn.

Can I color the porn?

Feel free to
I was thinking of doing it myself anyways

...

ayyyyo

...

You guys like sprite art, right?

Welp if you've got anything like I'd be more than happy to color it. If you'd rather wait and do it yourself thats fine too. but then I'll have to bully you

Well here a go, screw this site sometimes.

...

That's a terrible excuse. It's not like the only gain you have is money: any drawing can be a means to improve as an artist.

Not bad at all

Thanks my dude. I've had this horrid addiction to sunset colors lately and I've been using sprites as my main medium lately. Pixels are fun man, especially in SAI.

Would anyone mind making a drawing of the house of delights in Suran from Morrowind but all the strippers have Fargoth's head.

I just don't see the appeal to put hours into a drawing you'll never get credit for. Especially for an anonymous imageboard.

It's growing a love for the craft. If you don't enjoy what you do, you'll never get better at it, in some regards.

and all we had to do was ask

Well keep it up, good pixel art can be pretty fucking amazing. Always wanted to try it myself but have never gotten around to it

I like to ask for simple shit for people to draw.

it dosn't take a lot of effort, and they can take the opertunity to put some of the stuff they have been learning to put there own twist into the drawing.

Like take pic related

I ask people to draw the slugma, any way they want. I don't care what they give me, as long as they made it.

Shit, we shouldn't over complicate our drawfags, give them easy shit to draw.

What I do is I try making every drawing an excuse to improve in some way, be it gesture, painting, linework, anatomy, etc.
That way, even if it doesn't gather attention at all, it wasn't lost at all.

It really isn't much different from normal drawing, it's just figuring out which pixels look good in what composition next to each other, and how they impact the overall shape…

Y'know now that I've typed it out, it might be a bit more complex than I originally thought.

I wish we had the skills to make an 8ch kart.

No one owes you anything for your art though. I mean a thank you is nice but since this isn't a commission thread you should be drawing something because you want to. You want to do something nice just for the sake of being nice, or you want to try something your wouldn't otherwise draw, etc.

I mean if all you want is to get a tonne of comments and asspats go post on Deviant Art.

No one is owed any attention. If your art is good you'll get replies. If it's average you'll get a thank you from the requester and that probably it.

simple tends to be boring. complex tends to be difficult. just ask for what you want. maybe someone will pick it up, maybe they won't.

maybe one day we will have one fam

give it time, or better yet, start learning yourself

Yeah, its not like i expect them to take it.

I ask for the slugma cause shits hilarious, and I like doodling him in class.

But i don't have draw thing to draw for anons.

Closest I've probably gotten is coloring someone else work and then trying to make it look pixel-ish. Lacks the charm of hand done stuff

So have we decided when where going to have another draw thread? Or is it still on the fence.

It's a lot of trial and error to get it looking nice. the key is to either get REALLY wicked good with drawing with a 1 pixel brush, or just pick some widths, make some good looking lineart, and work on it from there.

You can see my first attempts were not very good.

If Holla Forums is around when that day comes.

Totally Simon and Garfunkel, right?

Hello Darkness, My Old Friend.

Leave well enough alone you nosey hotpockets.

This is Mushroom Jack.
He is an Elf.

But not just any elf, oh no.

This Elf is the only elf to know of the diabolical knowledge that there is an ancient race of mushroom people living thousands of leagues underground controlling every echelon of society, communicating by hallucinogenic spores.

Quests for him include going naked, hunting wolves naked whislt high on mushroom infusions he and you can make, talking about Myconian conspiracies, and giving crotch rot to everyone he comes across as well as never wearing shoes and buying an assortment of severed extremities from monsters, various creatures, and body parts and miscellaneous junk only a tinfoil wearing nutjob would buy.

I need something of him, anything.

Additionally, Myconians look like this.

Or alternatively, you could draw the Fedora wearing Mantis Azalak, dealing Cranium Powder to a Psychic, as the Mantises in Project:Gorgon are Sentient, Psychic Drug dealers that are the game equivalent to Mind Flayers.

Or Said mantis Hunting Deer (Doe or buck up to you, but a baby would be even funnier).
By beating it to death with a baseball bat instead of using it's psychic powers to mindblast the creature.

...

it really boils down to the drawfags themselves
you can't force them to join, they gotta come here with a smile, or make the threads on their own
away to do this would be to just draw, ignore the "draw benis" tier shit and the gay shit and just fucking draw

those template threads that turned into those webms we all have seen gained so much traction because they were fun to do and not too complicated either

and pls ban this nigger :^)

NO BULLY!

I will pay you $50 DPX (dickpix) to draw yourself eating cock

Hey drawfags i think these threads and your work are really nice. Just so you know at least i appreciate.

At lot of drawfags are going to disagree on the threads being really nice, just because requesters expect too much or request weird fetish stuff.

These threads are shit because shitters treat them like commission dispensers so much so that they even bitch when they don't get exactly what they wanted or if there's not enough of that mythical "effort" substance they apparently can measure precisely

Since this has turned into a drawfag thread instead of meta only
Taking requests
I can't draw for shit though.

this

discord.gg/BuCuWpF

The topic of a drawfag discord has been a recurring thing.
To those curious, we're always open to any aspiring drawfags, nodraws are allowed too but you'll get shit on.

Guess i'll request what i asked from the last draw thread.

I request the protagonist of SMT Strange Journey and Kagura of Senran Kagura, side by side, looking ready to fight, please.

Last time I went this it did not went well, but I'll try.

you went?

I went full potato.
Any idea of badass stuff to do? I haven't even started and I'm already having problems with it.

somersaulting over a charging metroid?

What's your definition of badass?

What would a slavic lich use as his phylactery?

I came here to /r/equest the Hyperdimension Neptunia CPUs drawn as the monster girl main cast of Monster Musume.
If you could make a version of them in their normal forms and another in HDD that'd be pretty fucking awesome.
Ideally with Iris Heart/Plutia as Rachnera, Purple Heart/Neptune as Papi, Black Heart/Noire as Miia, Orange Heart/Uzume as Mero, Yellow Heart/Peashy as Suu, Green Heart/Vert as Centorea and White Heart/Blanc as Lala
And if anyone can draw the CPU candidates as MON that'd be insanely awesome too.


Beautiful.

Hey, MP. Hope you're doing alright

Reference for MON and the CPU candidates.
Uni as Manako, Ram as Doppel, Rom as Tionishia and Nepgear as Zombina would be great, but as with the above post, feel free to alter the casting if you prefer another.

Alright, I'll try doing that.
I'm tired as fuck though, so I might leave it for another day.

Dual shotgun wielding with an explosion behind, but I don't feel like drawing all that shit.

Still not dead against all odds.

no

have you not read anything in this thread you greedy nigger

yeah good luck with that bud

the shitty, hugboxy, avatarfaggy threads and overpriced VNs have permanently tainted these games in Holla Forums's eyes

Ridley sides have gone to zebes

Full image?

I've been making this request the past few draw threads since it's simple enough and should be fun for drawfags.

These are pixiv stamps, essentially reaction images. Pick a vidya character and a pose to draw.

Someone do JC Denton peeking around the corner with a stealth pistol

Draw Der Overman holding down the Cultural Marxist menace.

That is it. But there was cake that day.

I need pics of BB Hood bullying whoever your waifu is. It doesn't matter how she goes about bullying your waifu, so long as you're creative about it.

Wait, this isn't poorly done Ridley porn

More examples

Sick videogames, m80.

Quit your bitching.

...

No but it could be I suppose

...

Oh fuck no it's drawwhores all over again

Sadly, that request IS video games now.

No, politics behind vidya aren't vidya.

ff-f-fatality!

triple kill!

HOLOCAUST
COMMUNISM

The characters behind vidya aren't vidya, yet it's all people ever request.

Do it yourself.

No one's requesting voice actors or animators who did those characters.
Your demagoguery is low-ass level, acquire proficiency.

CNN please go.

A schedule would work, like how ROB threads were scheduled ahead of time and people knew when to start looking

The real question is how would it stand up to people making threads prematurely

Any amount of organization or identity would defeat the purpose of anonymity on an imageboard. Just look at the 4am threads.

...

Working on art projects that have been in progress for 5 years each
you know how it is mane

Do you need any help moving that?

Implying those eyes will ever be pure

I mean more like if we had the threads on a certain day each week if would help people know when to get in here

That's be pretty sweet

That's even worse, since drawthreads are meant to be accessible and laidback. Putting them under curfew would just be shittier for the drawfags who obviously can't make the day theirs.

first weekend of each month

His track suit

That would be cool. It would actually give a wigga time to prepare for critiques.

No, it wouldn't.

Drawfags don't all work on the same schedule. Some dont even show up on the same days.

wut? user, you can draw anytime you want, but you can also post your drawings that day, like a deadline, for critique. It would be good practice for discipline.

That doesnt sound very free, to me.

What do you want me to do? Just liek, maek freedom?

4am threads still happen everyday fag, your goon astroturfing is completely ineffective.

But yea let's keep trying to kill more threads, we're currently at 350 or so PPH, let's get that number down to 100, make the board slow as fuck, THIS IS MY BOARD AFTER ALL and I don't wanna see shit I don't like.

You dont make freedom.

You let it be, because it's always there, in everyone.

I have a wacom tablet but I'm not a very good artist

draw and get better

...

Looks young, very cute

Working on it

user, no.

Do not sexualize the metal.

...

I would want her as my daughter

So, do any of you drawfags do things other than drawing? Like video effects or 3D modeling?

Why, do you?

I'm just interested in seeing what other stuff people do, generally the creative types don't just stick to one thing.
I guess? I'm not sure what you could call the stuff I do. I just make random shit, but who doesn't do that on imageboards? I'm not very good at it, either.

I misread that as stun gun, fuck it

I make video game character plushies for fun
Gotta take a break from one thing sometimes and go to the other you know, mixes it up

...

You know you could just draw a longer barrel with one brush stroke and it would look like a pistol.

that sounds awesome. I wish I could make physical stuff, so I can have figures/plushies of things I designed.

I accidentally posted this in a Lovecraft thread at first

Hey man, it's not bad. Although it does hurt my eyes to look at for too long.
So what exactly is it you do? Just make animations like that?

What language(s) are you learning? You really should start with something simple, some people for some reason just jump straight into Assembly and get surprised they can't learn it.

What characters have you made plushies of? Also post pics

...

Basically, yes. I'm honestly too shy to post any of my other stuff because I don't think it looks good

Are you going with a language like C+ first or something? It shouldn't be confusing.

No pics, cameras broke sadly


Easy modu is to make the character in a computer program in 3d, color them, then use the flat texture image as the fabric pattern
Then you know it's gonna be the right shape and size

That was a sweet animation, simple but good on the eyes and smooth

At least post one other thing, user.

Oh fug man, that sucks.

Just C++. From what I've read, I think its called a high-level language, so it is made to be far easier to read and write for a person before it's translated into machine code.

What usually confuses me is what the syntax meaning/name are and how the code in general is structured for creating more complicated things.
I know how to assign basic stuff like value to variables, loops and if statements. Actually using them to create something doesn't make sense to me. I don't know how to break down the problem into its components to make something like a simple calculator.

Start with a more modern language like Python. This guide should help:

learnpythonthehardway.org/book/preface.html

You should go for a more simple first language like BASIC, user.
Work from down upwards, don't go with something like C++ first.

Thanks, man.

Alright.
This one was made as a test more than anything else. I think it's over six hundred frames long. If it plays slowly then save it and play it in your browser.

NO.

THE RULE WAS MADE TO KEEP REQUESTFAGS AND NOSKILLS OUT OF COOPTING THE THREAD FOR THEIR SHITTY WAIFU REQUESTS

THE RULE IS THERE TO SPECIFICALLY PREVENT EXACTLY THAT TYPE OF SHIT
It was so bad that at the point some of us started to rebell out of 200 UIDs in a thread only 3 were drawfags. These threads were completely taken over by the free commission crowd and I remember mass-reported and banned when I started to voice my disagreement with the shittiness of those threads.


If you want to help these threads, enforce the drawfag-OP rule through board rules. Otherwise just fuck off.

If you´re not a drawfag dont make these threads PERIOD.
Anything else and you´re ACTIVELY making these threads worse.

Not even a regular but that seems like basic etiquette.

holy fuck

What the fuck are you doing, nigger?
Are you trying to burn what may be the only bridge these threads have to not becoming permanent "draw my waifu" threads?

We had to fight tooth and nail for that shit.

I like this.

The "free-commission" mentality, not-so-much.

Nobody wants to be a squidward.

These threads were permanent "draw my waifu" threads once. We took them back after being essentially forced out, and now OP wants to give it back to the vermin on a silver platter.
Mark wasnt our friend back then, and Mark isnt our friend now. Mark has shit all idea about this issue and mark should keep the fuck out, he was banning drawfags on behalf of the subhumans that coopted these threads and he will do it again.

...

If you want to make drawthreads great again, just post lots of oc instead of bitching. Be it as a fulfilled request or your own stuff, just make these threads about art.

still pending…

Oh well, requesting to draw SANIC in pic related.

There should be limit on requests, so that until they get done you can't request more. If you want your request done, better fire up that paint and do those shitty requests in a way they deserve to be done, interesting ones will be done to a better degree, because they are actually interesting to artists.

This is so not going to work, but fuck it.

...

wrong server, m80s

The drawfag-OP rule is the only thing that ever proven effective in the long run.
Starting a thread with a request or non-OC legitimizes free comission scum.

The funny thing is you've bitching about requestfags yet you haven't posted a single piece of OC so far :^)

Hey that's pretty good for only being done in 14 minutes, man.

Fuck off you fucking newfag, if you were actually there when we hit rock bottom, you´d drop that attitude faster than your fathers expectations of your success in life and career.
Stop enabling the cancer or it will consume you whole.

This is a good wario

This guy get it. Metafags and constant bitching about how things "should" be done instead of contributing art is what kept killing the previous threads. You draw or you don't. You fulfill a request or do your own thing. The end. That and basic monotony, too many threads were being made one after another so people got burned out

Can I make a request? Draw the tans spoiling Gilda!

This is good, how about some colour?

Draw mark in the oven.

good job, looks pretty good, the pose has weight and the arm has good foreshortening.

OP here, sorry about not being here to talk about this Seriously FUCK Irish weather. Getting back on track a bit with the schedule idea, what do some of you draw fags think? If we decided that a draw fag could make a draw thread every 2 weeks would you think that is a good idea in general? Do ye think having the draw threads being a biweekly/weekly thing is overall better or worse then them being when ever?

There's some red missing, for fuck's sake.

goddamn user

biweekly/weekly would be good
If it's usually around the same time then we know when to look and get in here, rather than only some of us being here at the time to see it and resuting in the thread having a lower pop

Noice

We could try having them every second Friday or so for a bit and see how it goes, it's worth a shot at least.

hey there
I'm doing fine overall
yesterday I had to go to the dentist and it sucked ass

I like that.


You sucked ass at the dentist? Neat.

We could try starting it on Friday next week, you know, give some time between this thread and then and maybe pick up this discussion again. Someone else should make that thread since I'm not a draw fag

Sounds cool.
I'm a drawfag, but people here hate me so I don't want to start it myself.

Let's not


Yeah, maybe you should just fucking stop and wait for some of them to kill themselves. I won't mind if they disappear for a while, or just forever.

you only have yourself to blame

I'd say we have a big event to get the attention of all and any drawfags left on this god forsaken board and then see where it goes from there


threads outta be stricter on those things, for sure
it'd be nice if for a while a hotpocket could join the threads and clean up until we get some peace restored
I hardly see any other means of getting rid of these niggers

>people here hate me so I don't want to start it myself.
If you start it off with some vidya OC and take a few requests or post some art in the thread, I doubt there will be as big a backlash as you expect.


You're acting as if surprised by autism on a Javanese shadow theater discussion forum.

People hate you because you're a fucking annoying furry who never contributes.
Either go away and don't come back or actually draw vidya stuff, but knowing you the former is the more likely option.

ANAUGI
Hope you're doing fine, and thanks for coming and doing some art. Looking good.


Thanks! It's always fun to draw him.


With your astounding track record of the same 3 bunny drawings that you always start posting with, I really can't see why people hate you, user.

Those are some damn nice lines

alright, before the thread dies, how about this
this friday we get together and just draw
the topic will be strictly vidya, no waifu shit
both drawfags and non drawfags could prepare rough pieces/templates for other drawfags to just draw/paint all over, like that thread with the viv costume back when it was actually fun to come in here
and afterwards we see where it takes us

or we just lay down and die

Or we could do a drawpile like back in the day

The problem with drawpile is nobody does anything serious for practice and the connection is a big problem.

I thought about it, but drawpile kinda draws the attention away from the thread

I left that drawpile before I saw the dogs everywhere, whoever did that outta kill himself

Yo, Drawfag from Holla Forums dropping in!

No go user, that actually sounds fucking comfy and fun you pretty cool dude

We all did that you cunt.
The thread is not its own purpose. Its like saying playing video games draws attention away from the discussion.

guess I shouldn't have left early then, my bad

the thread is the point where you gather, having all the drawfags in a drawpile would leave everyone else in the thread who isn't drawing
drawpile has a chat so who'd bother posting here?
we'd have extracted not the cancer but everything else, leaving the thread to die
at least that's how I see it, I definitely wouldn't mind doing a drawpile again

Don't

Looking good!

True the watermark is unnecessary especially on here….
Namefagging
Sum Ting Wong?

I think it's better to be here. It's better to practice seriously alone than goof around doing doodles with a bunch of people who are also goofing around.

Thanks!


Are you gonna draw in the next thread too, user?

It's really not.
Go away, nobody likes you.

what's the address for 8/v/drawpile?

there's value in both.

Its old as fuck, we hosted unlisted serbers back then.

But you're wrong.

After a stint of coloring shitty, shitty sketches, lineart like this is a fucking godsend. Bless you drawfag

i tried to.

that could be really cool. or just challenges in general


a good request is something that is challenging or interesting. basically if i look at a request and think 'how the fuck do i draw that?' then i'll at least give it a try.
the only problem i have w/ porn requests is that they're usually so boring. drawing your waifu getting dicked isn't really that fun or interesting, there needs to be something more to it. the exception is stuff like drumanon or tilefag

maybe this is too autistic, but it'd be nice if there were a way to quickly view all the requests in a thread instead of having to skim through 200+ replies to find maybe 20 people who actually want something drawn. something like using Request: as a header so that it's easy to ctrl f through all of them

I kind off miss drawpile.

It looked like a ton of fun. I could never get it to work on Mint and was eternally frustrated as a result.

absolutely, I'd hate to be the only one around though

well we used to have an anchor post where requesters would reply to with their requests
I hope we'll bring that back
