In this thread I'll be posting about what I draw whenever I feel like it, ramble about the process and thoughts behind them and try to work on whatever project I have in mind.

This here is a rough, simple and crude example showing some of the characters I have created for one particular project of mine but I haven't bothered to work on it properly, it showcases the main character, the chud-like dude at the bottom left of the image, someone who's meant to be of importance to him and the story altogether, the one in the middle and the one on the top left are "the bad guys" in the setting, the duo at the middle right are a couple of young nobles, and part of the good guys, and the duo at the bottom right are side characters that have their own time to shine in the story

With all of this addressed, what I have to explain is: what the fuck is this even all about? It's a story based on those Isekai mangas where the mc is sent to a medieval like world and is tasked to save the world in order to return home, using soyjaks as the base, and happenings in the soysphere as the plot points to advance the story, all of this without the same issues found in generic isekais like the harems or the whole "winning by friendship" or in the other side of issues, the excessive gore and main character torture with overpowered mc and the souls like ambience to try to sound more mature than what it is... I haven't decided how certain things go yet into the story but I do have some parts there, and some more designs somewhere so if I can I will change them to better suit the setting.
All in all is meant to be something stupid, silly and fun to do, I always wanted to create stories ever since I was young but I've struggled when it comes to actually making the thing, so I'm inexperienced on how this works, the technical aspects of how a story works best and how to demonstrate certain moments in the story, the paneling and composition, and more... It's a big hurdle and I like to work in it as a way to prove that I, too, can do something people can enjoy even if it's dumb and repetitive, after all I believe that the real deal is not just the idea itself but how it is executed to make it stand out despite it being something simple and childish.

Yeah something like that.
Apologize if I'm not making sense, another issue I have is that I suck at writing as you can see.

Anyways here's the thread, for good.

>Isekai mangas
>all of this without the same issues found in generic isekais
good to hear. from my experience, they all looked the same and yeah, they had some weird themes that you mentioned (like harems). I think the main reason you see these tropes is that isekai acts like escapism (other "genres" also are like that), so you should figure out the main/side message/s thats far away from just "MC escapes his boring and meaningless chud life and appears in this cool world where everybody desires him and he is a very, if not the most, useful guy". I had an idea for Zigle Zogle, where the MC has an "escape world" (which sometimes leaks into the real world) but the goal of the story ultimately is escaping from illusion/fantasy and facing/re-enting reality.

One thing to help ya out is learning to write a script. Here is a video explaining the basics (for movies):

Here is a site where you can check comic scripts:
https://comicsexperience.com/scripts/

You can also post your scripts here and ask for opinions. Before a script, you could also write a very basic text explaining the whole story as a reference (not needed DOE).

>after all I believe that the real deal is not just the idea itself but how it is executed to make it stand out despite it being something simple and childish.

True, there's nothing new under the sun.

You know it would be nice if there was a neat reply button somewhere that makes replying to threads easier instead of relying of tapping on the post's number to access the thread and reply

you mean replying from overboard?
lazy_cluckaNo.124
>>123
There's no organic way to enter a thread outside of thread list and catalog view, I'll assume that you're referring to 'overboard' the index view of threads like in imageboards, there's no reply button anywhere, you can't enter the thread from the index unless you tap into any of the thread's post numbers which is odd. Wonder what someone who has never interacted with any imageboard in their life would think of it? Also, why exactly we can edit a post like once and that's it? Is it for security reasons?

>last page button
I see now, it kind of solves this I guess
Since when was that button? I don't remember seeing it
too2qNo.126
>>125
I always used the post number link to enter a thread, don't remember ever using the [Reply] link. But I would rather name it View thread, because that's what actually does, and will be used to view the entire thread instead of only the last page. Threads are paginated, 50 posts per page, but full view thread is also available, and you have to deliberately click the Last page button or some particular page to enter the paginated view, clicking on a post number redirects to the full view like it does in Vichan.
>Since when was that button? I don't remember seeing it
Since always but it shows only when a thread has more posts that are show in the preview.

Anyways since Im here I'll be pasting some stuff I did on xitter to rob Zoot's disk space at least make use of the coolio site

Some basic practice I did a while back

Somebody's OC, her name is Ezra

Another OC, forgot her name, property of spontaneous aka goontaneous aka #1 verafag of this day

My own take on derpina and the troll rage face himself, also practice

As you can see what I'm doing mostly is practice the fluidity of my Lineart since that's what's make my drawings unique, for the pic 2 for example I had to use multiple fingers to generate different kind of lines, as the mobility and flexibility of each finger determines the nature of each line, for example: a line drawn with the thumb will be shorter and curved to the side of the hand that traces it compared to lines traced by the index, which are straighter and longer

I did the index thing just fine why on earth did only 2 images get sent? What the
lazy_cluckaNo.129

Anyways the 2 images shown here >>127 are the last 2
Here's the first ones


Is this a sort of memory issue? Why I have to always struggle here

They were not uploaded. If they were uploaded, but not referenced, they would be visible at the top. Next time check if they are visible in the files box. There is a chance for a bug although I haven't seen anything like that yet.

The images were selected and were visible on the file list ready to be posted, what I do remember doing is that, the first 2 were selected each individually and the last two (which did get posted) were selected at once. Might need extra testing to see if it's some sort of bug or there was something else happening that I didn't see like me accidentally deselecting the first 2 files.
>>131
Ermmmmm that's like, le bigoted or something
<Not-greentext space
Anyways here's a new OC born on the shemmy, say hi to Lora

>>127
bro i need that space tf

>spontaneous
I think her name was Erika. These two are nice.

>>129
but Ezra ( i assume its the last pic) looks weird. The position looks weird (maybe some places should be darker to make it more clear that there is contact with the ground or with some parts of the body. IDK what it is but the hands look weird.

>>132
tiny front left hand compared to bigger back right hand. also SHE IS GONNA FALLL!!1!!

I don't know, do you use Firefox? There is a bug in Firefox that allows to copy only a single file at a time, but then only that file is added to the form. And on Chrome it seems to be working fine.

I guess that's it... Sigh... It's always bugfox and it's forks
>>133
Yeah I know, the anatomy is off and there's some lacking detail with the shading that connects the body with the environment, it has always been an issue for me
>Lora criticism
For one yes, also forgot to mention how her head is bigger than what it needs to be
Also how her legs are "too long"
It's an issue of not following a proper character design sheet for it like serious drawfags

For now I guess I have to select the files in one go since that's what's worked instead of clicking one at a time. What a bore

>Lora
IDK what the proportions are supposed to be, but head looks fine in this drawing. Legs are thin, which i personally dont find problematic (but patellas are way up, maybe thats what you mean by "long"). Maybe the feet need to be a bit bigger or longer, but really the hands/arms are all that needs to be fixed imo.

perhaps her hips need to be slightly larger
