>>273992620Sauce?
Have fun.
Chiaki enjoying a hot drink.Christmas soon...
that time again huh? I have a great idea but doubt I'll pull it off
>>273993143You got like three days to give it a shot.
>>273993020Who's this?
>>273993579Magic Knight from the Disgaea series.
>>273993641I see. Very cute drawing.
>>273993662Thank you. Usually she has red hair and green sleeves but for this time of the year, I figured her blue coloring from her second tier was a bit more fitting for the time of year.
>>273992724Very nice. It even has a Christmas color scheme.
>>273995114>Gundam 0080Shoebill has patrician taste
>>273993020I like the pose, and the winter scenery
>>273993809>I figured her blue coloring from her second tier was a bit more fittingI agree. It fits very nicely with the background.
>>273995114>mariah carrey sweater lmao
>>273995342It's the best.>>273996445We love Mariah in this household.
I'm working on it.
Fun fact: Vito Corleone's cat in The Godfather was a stray cat Francis For Coppola found on the Paramount lot. It purred so loudly that some of Marlon Brando's dialogue had to be dubbed.
>>273998971Comfy
>>273998994cool shading sakakibro
>>274000085Yeah I was trying to imitate the dim lighting from the movie.
>>273992620Give others the chance to be the OP picture for once.
>>273998451Very nice :)
>>274000025Nice as usual with yours, I really like the color scheme.
Sorry I don't have a tablet so I used my mouse
Might come back to do something else too, work kinda wore me out today...
>>273992620Take notes, Takemura.
A bit embarrassing to even post kek, tried a bunch of different things but ended up with this. One day I'll seriously start my drawfag journey and stop drawing her like a character from All Tomorrows.
>>274003488?You did a good job anon don't get yourself so down
>>274003652She does it for free
>>273992620I have not artistic talent at all.I drew this a while back on gimp using a trackball. It is about the best I could do even with paper and pencil.
>>274002653Pretty good for just using a mouse
>>274003488GEG
>>273992620Damn, you're a constant inspiration man
Quick thing because I'm busy this week
>>273992620How do you usually go about coloring? It doesn't look like the paint brush was used but rather the pencil brush in various sizes
does a crop work?
I tried
>>274006604Cute work anon
>>274003782>>274003488Lmao for a moment I thought the Shinobufag who actually gives a rats ass about drawing lost part of his brain in a traffic accident.Dont you feel ashamed of always coming up with the same mediocre shit?>>274005946At least this guy has actual brain damage>>273998994I have seen you "draw" for 6 years already and you have plateaued hard since then. >>273993020Dude...Why dont you guys try Proko or Loomis or any tutorial? Dont you guys love your wife?
Will I get banned for doing it in Mario Paint?
>>274006865Most people here aren't artists, bro. It's just a fun doodle. No reason to shit on people for having fun
>>274006888I think that'd be kino but I'm not OP/the guy who puts the collage together.
>>274006865Nigger lmao
I was a bit unprepared, but I made something happen.
>>274006865pyw
>>274007092I like the Windows broken window/PilotRedSun trail coming from the rifle
>>274006865post your work
>>274006952I was gonna draw her but halfway through doing the hairline my heart and brain shat themselves together and stopped me from continuing.I don't wanna butcher her image.
>>274007092cool>>274006865uncool
I wish happy holidays for you all, frens. Comfy cuddling with kiss-shot would be the end of me.
>>274007239Just be patient and cook something good up.
>>274007374great as always
My wife
>>274007374Beautiful
>>274007853Cute eyebrows

Next Full Moon: 15 Dec 2024, 9:01 AM UTC
Maybe tomorrow if the thread is still alive
Reminder
>>274007853amazing depth and very clean and nice colors
>>274007853Thats an amazing work but I dont think I recognize you. Blog?
>>274008510>kindergarten smockuooh
>>274008510She doesn't live on my system and it's her big sisters fault.
>Ms paint thread >Doesn't use Ms paint You should all be disqualified
>>274008759This was a competition? Happy Yule to you!
>>273992620
Time to drink some coffee and draw waifu all night
I see dedicated anons and comfy art, very nice work from everyone so far
>>274009012Its Yule, drink glög
Could I participate if my husbando is kind of v but all of his media and additional content is also in manga and anime form?
>>274009185Yeah go for it
>>274009185Go for it, have fun. Plenty have been similar in the past in these threads.
I only had 22 colors available, peach wasn't one of them and no art skills so thumbnail sized art.
>>274002574Looks pretty mysterious and deep with these shadows. Very nice job getting the focal point there.
>>274002746Super cute heart. Hope you can do some more after you come back.>>274002868Oh no, I hope santa is ok. That perspective on the pillar is pretty good. Cute face.>>274004767Cute moog. Amazing eyebrows and nice desaturated colors.>>274005081Man, that's super cute. Very nice way of coloring. And hope you follow the rules, anon.>>274005931Even if simple, it conveys a lot of love for him. Including red as the only color is very interesting. Good luck on the rest of the week.
>>274009437>hope you follow the rules I'm bound by Christmas traditions to obey the standard mistletoe procedure
>>274008829absoluterly amazing. you're so good. your art is so sweet.
>>273992620I don't have a waifu...
>>274009515That's ok anon, you can just choose one and draw her if you want
>>274005981Hello. I use the eraser like 95% of the time. I use it to block in masses of shapes and then, as I start to refine, I'm going a bit lower in size. For the strictly round shapes, like the orbs, I use the pencil tool in a big size.Is that your drawing? Your lines look confident, it's very cool.
>>274009501Thank you! All credits to her.
>>274009663I don't really understand what you mean by that
>>274009708I think he makes large blobs and shapes, then uses the eraser to erase it into the shapes he wants. Sort of like chipping at a marble block to make a statue I think
>>274009728That makes sense, makes me wish I had access to layers though. I'm still on W10 so I can only use the old version of paint. Unless there's a way to update it without updating to W11 that I don't know about.
Paint is used because it is barebones as shit tho'
>>274009780Layers are cheating
FUCK so busy with /ss/ that I forgot about this. Hope the thread is still up by tomorrow.
>>274009663I see, I notice with most MS Paint artist they start with colored blocks, chisel it to a desired shape and add details from there. Never tried it personally but it seems like an effective method, noted. >Is that your drawing? Your lines look confident, it's very cool.You flatter me, thank you
>>274008300Super nice work. The coloring and the clothes are so good, the face is pretty, and the hair looks silky.
>>273992620 Is there a schedule for the mspaint threads? I wasn't ready for this one but tried nonetheless
>>274010719It's every even month on the second Wednesday. For example the next one will be February.12th.
>>274010757Who decided on this schedule?
>>274010778No idea, these threads have been around for years before I started joining them. I know it's in relation to the old Waifu Wednesday threads though.
>>274010982Ok, so any lore master here who knows how this threads started on the schedule?
I hate people, but I hate people that can draw beautifully the most.
>>274011140why do you hate yourself anon?
>>274011153Okay just for that I'm drawing her.
>>274011509Looks better than what I usually do
The prettiest goddess will make sure that all the good boys and girls of Gamindustri get their gifts in time this year! She said I have to wait until she comes back for mine tho, wonder why...I feel a bit guilty for breaking the small-big-small-big pattern here, but the idea was too good to pass up, the execution... eh I fucked up the face. Merry Christmas /a/.
>copy-pasting transparent selection in windows now replaced the transparent part with pure black somehow>still works in linuxfuck, must be one of the windows update or somethingnow i can't abuse pseudo-layer
Had wanted to do something more elaborate, but didn't have the time or presence of mind.Suppose it's just as well, I'd sorta wanted to focus more on Crona himself with these.
live
>>274012748you sure it's not that you have the wrong colour selected as secondary colour or something? I haven't had this problem
>>273999038Cute
>>274006865>I have seen you "draw" for 6 years already and you have plateaued hard since then.It's 5 years, and I plataeud in the last 3 years. But it's understandable since I only draw in these threads. Oftentimes I make my drawings in a couple of hours, my best drawings are usually started on the first day of the month, so those are drawn in 8-13 days. I considered learning Loomis and Bridgman, but lately I didn't have a lot of time because of university.
>>274011107I don't know, but there is an archive that shows previous thread collageshttps://imgur.com/a/draw-waifu-paint-WX8HUIt started out in 2016 as a weekly thread, then it became monthly, then it became every second month in late 2016, early 2017. I assume it's because generals are kinshi, and every second month is sparse enough to not be a general.
>>274014459So it just happened, thanks for this
i still suck with mspaint
>>274015436>Posts great art>I'm not that good guysThis is why it's not worth it to post join these threads
>>274015604Just draw your wife who cares lol
Don't die yet
>>274015436shes missing her pinky. she only has 3 fingers and a thumb.
>>274016885I thought to have it curled inward as to not be visible, like it's supporting the can from below. You can see a small bump indicating it, but I should've made it more prominent.
>>274008829Super lovely>>274009274Very nice, very clean.
>>274012354Cute chibi
Draw friend bump
>>274007554Oh! I like it, it looks whimsical like a children's book! I like the pastel colors too.
>>274015262>>274014459They used to be random before then, but I don't think those got saved
>>274009277Pretty good small pixel icon, the colors look good
>>274008759Do you mean the tegaki guy? To be fair it takes nerves of steel to draw directly in a browser for a length of time.>>274005081And so do I.>>274010719Nice feets.
Bumping for those who plan to draw

All cute waifus, excellent work everyone
>>274007092Sorry, didn't realize this was going to be the only thread for the month, so I guess this was going to be the Christmas edition. So I felt like I had to redo, but with a Christmas theme

>>274042022I'm a turbo super dummy dumb dumbo who forgot the belt, woops.
I hope this thread survives up to bump limit, few of the only decent threads on /a/
Bump
>>274043824It was page 7, Also consider complimenting someone instead of just writing “bump” thank you.
>>273992620Did you paint that? That's impressive.
i wonder what she got for me!
merry xmas anons
>>274000025Her expression is adorable. Great job anon.

worst early christmas present everuhhhhhh i meanHahaha, I'm so happy that bastard Yumigahama Hikaru got his just desserts for doing shady jobs from the yakuza just to survive, unlike our noble heroes associated with various assassination clans in the KA! He deserved so much worse than a broken knee and an upcoming cartel execution! Narushima Koga, I will never forgot your mercy to this monster who lives hand-to-mouth.
>>274041879>>274043909God, these are gorgeous.
bump before slumber since I need to finish mine tomorrow
my lewd hyena wife
>>274009437>Good luck on the rest of the weekThank you! I just had a couple other projects to finish and now I'm away for the weekend. If the thread still exists on Sunday night I might try to polish it up.
>>274015436anudda one
>>274047105Great colors
the destructive effect of the paint bucket tool is yet to be fully realised
>>274047587Nice!
>>274041879Positively regal.
I would've liked to add shading and shit but I don't have time for that
Otototo. For some reason I had it in my head these threads happened on the weekends. Maybe they just usually last that long. Hope it'll be up for a couple days yet!
One last bump before I snooze
how do you draw hands
>>274051798very carefully
>>274051798Draw a boxAdd tubes (4 if you're good, three if you aren't)Add a half tube on the side
>>274051798just look through references until you find something that matches the pose you're going for, that always works for me
nine hundred seconds in paint
This is my wife(canon)i love her so much

>>274054973Everything is allowed, just have fun.
>>274042400Nice to see a lucky star waifu, Minami is a cutie. Good job anon.
>>274029361Smol and cute.
>>274012801Impressive details,shadows and lighting as always.
>>274054973those are the best
>>274007554Cute Hotori!
>>274054973Effort is the beauty. The result can be bad and still have had effort put into it. I would rather you didn't post anything if you don't care to put any effort in.
>>274055638Lovely meido.
work in progress bumpero
Quick Minos bump
>ms paint got support for layers and transparency some time ago>they are now rolling out generative ai tools for itit's over

i won't let this thread die until my drawing gets at least one (You)
>>274061551Thank you anon we need time
>>274060405very cute anon
>>274060405Very cute
>>274052493Cute Misaka
>>274000025I love the way you rendered the embroidery on her skirt. >>274002574Love this piece. The way it almost looks like it was done in oils makes it really stand out. Vaguely impressionist, too.>>274008300Cute piggies :3>>274009274The stylistic emulation here is impressive. The mood of the piece feels rather melancholic, with the slightly claustrophobic background accenting her expression beautifully.>>274012801Delightful as always, anon. Reserved pieces are never a bad thing, though I do miss whatever sentimentally detailed background you would have given us.
it took me 8 hours just to sketch the handdamn i'm ngmi
We are all gonna make it, this thread has to last all weekend
Bump with a colored version
>>274040644>Merry Christmas /a/Did you decorate your Christmas tree?
I'll draw mine later.
Haven't done one of these in a while.
this thread needs roomis
>>274068098I'll be honest with you chief I draw based off twitter tutorials and vibes
>>274068098>not viruppungmi
>>274068263>Schizo shit>>274068098I agree
I made it in time
>>274067380I just did! Merry Christmas anon!
>>274068392>Animating in PaintBullshit.Miku and the bus is almost static but....Oh wait, the tree, house and pole are a single drawing "moving" back and the bush is relatively "Just" 3 bushes repeating ad infinitum.I fucking kneel
I wish I was as good as anons at this, happy holidays.
I want to poke Popu's pouty cheek.
>>274003301nice angle snapping
>>274068892super cute
>>274068576Thanks.I drew it all separately in paint and then combined with a script.
I have aphantasia, this is the absolute best I can do when drawn from direct reference and it took a long time.
>>274068392>>274068832>>274069301>>274069878>>274068892
>>274070371What, I swear I wrote cute.
Excellent work everyone, fantastic thread. So many good waifus
>>274048598Your wife is going commando anon, also you did this in paint?
>>273992620it doesn't count if you don't use mouse btw
>>274009274Love seeing your works, the anime style emulation with the distinct Paint twist is mint. Great sense of scale and perspective with the bg too. >>274032986Very prettyhandsome Sensei. The pure white snowflakes really pop against the more muted palette, did you place them all by hand? >>274033191Great festive outfit, those candle crowns are so beautiful. Although the combo of open flame and hot wax near hair always sketches me out, ha. >>274039633Good casual pose and getup, sweater with spats is always a top tier combo. The warm drink adds a nice subtle hint of winter ambiance.>>274048598Still looks sharp with flats. Great expression and body language, nopan peek is the cherry on top. Tastefully spicy. >>274068392Animating with Paint, god damn. Very impressive, love the bright and lively bg as well. Pleasant bit of contrast with the more wintry works itt.
I just need to relax even if the thread dies i’ll draw her, i don’t wanna rush this
>>274069878Oh my God this is amazing. I'm drawing her at the moment as well...
Happy Birthday month to my wonderful waifu!
>>274071890No you won't >>274073173
>>274070604>you did this in paint?I may have done the initial sketching elsewhere but the clean lines were definitely done in paint
Witches are the best waifu material, they can be strong and weak at the same time, fulfilling my liking for strong women and my protective instinct
I haven't drawn for too long, now after just a few hours my hand starts to hurt.
Paint bump
Never tried MSPaint, it was fun.
>>274002574is he Kaiji?
>>274079249Akagi, I believe
Do you guys draw with a mouse? How can you make it look this good? The last time I've seriously used paint was back in elementary school where a teacher would ask us to draw some shit, and it'd look like shit. Is it just training until you become this good. Tbf I'm now even good with a pen and paper, so that could be why I'm just bad.
>>274080020Practice
>>274080054but is it really just with a mouse?
>>274080020Mouse is good for pixel art.
>>274080020Talent + Wacom. W11 Paint with layers also helps
>>274080085what about most of the art posted in this thread? is it with a mouse or no?
>>274080020I use a mix of mouse and tablet, but mostly mouse nowadays. You can just hit undo until you get the stroke you want
>>274080129>>274080150I see thanks!
>>274080020Nobody said you HAVE to do mspaint draws with mouse so I just use my tabletThat still counts r-right?
>>274080129Using a tablet and nupaint's layers is by no means disallowed, but it REALLY goes against the spirit of the thread.
>>274080317sure buddy.
So every good post here wasn't made from Ms paint? That's just
>>274080020I use my drawing tablet on JS paint, trying to use the mouse gives me feel like a mental patient being experimented on with one of those sets of electrified motor skill things in 1928.
>>274080881Kurisu?
>>274080075The final redpill is that mark making almost doesn't matter compared to knowing what to draw. A perfectly drawn ellipse or box in perspective? Who cares lmao. A cute anime girl in a nice pose drawn with messy but intentionally placed lines? Pure soul, peak appeal.
>>274080020I use a mouse, it's hard to get clean lines but painting isn't so bad.
>>274080020I only draw with a mouse.
>>274055244>>274064030Many thanks.>though I do miss whatever sentimentally detailed background you would have given us.Same honestly, I think I can repurpose my original idea for Valentines though. We'll see.
>>274080881Kinda looks like BB.
ON YOUR FEET WAIFUFAGS TIME TO...
Time to what anon!?
>>274080130For more high res stuff I prefer tablet personally.
>>274083545duel
I haven't gotten my (You) yet get to it
>>274085616
keep the thread alive onegai
>>274080735The really good ones are not made by paint, dunno why people does that but whatever
>>274088656Dont try to blame your lack of talent on a tool.
>>274088893I'm not, idc to be honest but it defeats the purpose of the thread a bit.
>>274088656what do you mean, almost all the drawings here were clearly done in paint, even the good ones
>>274088932>i-i-i dont care they are better than me and can draw with barebones tools like Paint>Ff-f-fuck YOU!cope
>>274089348Dunno why are you so aggresive about this, I just replied to an anon about what I think, never told anyone "fuck you", my guess is that you are triggered because you are one of the few anons that used a tablet with another program otherwise it doesn't make sense being this retarded.
>>274080075drawing with a mouse for long periods of time is dangerous for your wrist. Chink tablets are the price of a video game now. It's worth getting one even if you only draw bimonthly.>>274089442>what I thinkAnd you thought wrong. You're allowed to be arrogant once you've actually learned to draw.
>>274089442Just pyw anon.
>>274089793Dude, there are people that admited to do the sketches before using paint in this very thread, it really doesn't matter I'm not calling anyone for doing so or doing whatever they want as long as it was fun, I only replied to that anon stop being a fucking pest.
>>274089894Just pick up a pencil and practice bruh!
Can we please save this battle of truly titanic minds for a thread where keeping it alive doesn't matter? Some anons still have to finish!
>>274090087Yes please, this thread deserves to live at least the whole weekend to give anons a chance, it’s a busy time of the year for most people
>>274089894a sketch is not the final piece and when the final piece is done in paint, it's done in paint
>>273992620>>274008829Artist name? Arts look so lovely in MSPaint!
bump for those still working
>>274080020Once you start learning how to draw, you'll realize the most important thing to make your drawings look good before the lineart stage isn’t how you control your pen but your observation skills
>>274093796pyw
>>274080951Yes
I don't feel great about this one, but I gave it a try of all time.
this was fun, haven't used paint in some time since discovering drawpile
>>274054001Thank you!
>>274096565Hope she gets unstuck.
Bump!
>>274096109Cute!!!!
Hello
>>274088656If you point at the ones you mean I can explain to you how you can check that they were made in paint. There's some really easy tells when you know the program.>>274089442Essentially you're criticising people's skill and dedication by insisting they cheated the prompt in some way.>>274089894Could you explain how sketching somewhere else would affect how the tools in paint look at the end of the process? If anything it'd make it harder to separate linework from the sketch.
now i kinda wished i saved by timeline gif lol
>>274079239Really pretty, great colors.
I love my wife Irisu Makina!Happy holidays!
Hi
>>274103193yes hello sir
Here's your regularly scheduled bump
I swear I'll finish coloring when I wake up. Why is paint so hard I can't keep restarting this piece
>>274100744I always save mine just to see which part I was stuck onIt's only like, 6MB after converted to webm anyway
I will do mine tonight, I promise
>>274096406wow your waifu is big, nice torpedos
Time to close shop?
>>274108001No
I'll try to keep the lights on
BUMP PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD I AM STILL WORKING
>>274110521H-H-H-HURRY UP!!
Im almost done
You better be drawing
I finished in time, another winter with my love
Is it just me or do anons start drawing less? They were more active even last year.
It's a dying culture
>>274112765I am just really slow bro, and so are lots of others. Leave things to the last minute
>>274112765Just bad timing, it’s ok anons will draw more next time
>>274112524I really like the background on this one, good job.
Bumping for the last time
I'm still drawing
Are you drawing, son?
>>274116212Yes but the perspective is fucked.
>>274116212Not until I get home from work...Hope it'll still be up!
>>274117709Ok
>>274112524Love that background. Excellent job all around.
>>274112765I'm still finishing up last minute /ss/ stuff. If the thread is still up by the time I'm done, it will truly be a Christmas miracle.
>>274120529Are you the same ghostfag as always?
>>274120703yeah
>>274046451draw her missing more limbs next time :d
I fucked upI hope thread lasts until tomorrow night
>>274120538I love how smooth and deliberate the lines feel in this piece.
I dont think I am going to finish this one and it is already sunday night. Pain.
>>274123380Cute
wake the fuck up samurai, we got a waifu to draw
>>274125991No can do, chief, I'm working on a gift
>>274126145you vill draw und you vill like it
>>274126925It IS a drawing, yes, not paint tho
I need some sleepHopefully the thread will still be up tomorrow
>>274130045Yeah same. My wrist is starting to give out...We still have a good supply of bumps, here's hoping anons can keep it alive tonight!
>>273992724Comfy, it reminds me of a children's book illustration.>>273995114That fucking sweater, it looks like it'd make dosh.>>273998451Fucking wew, nice to see you back>>273998971Cute Azusa, I wonder what she's dreaming of.>>273998994That cat looks tough, a tough cat for a tough lady.>>273999038___ ____ Chino. You should make a fumo of her.>>274000025Very cute! Did she get over her shyness to stand on stage like that?>>274002653Cute Rin! And no worries, if anything it's amazing. Though don't over do it, your wrist will thank you.>system thinks it's spamah right, new "anti-spam" measures.
>>274002746Understandable, although this one is good, she looks youthful with those twintails.>>274002868Ouch, I hope this doesn't discourage her and that she manages to finish delivering them safely!>>274003488That's a neat idea, she can fill every position.>>274005081What did she mean by this? Also I like this use of hatching and colors>>274005931Lovely, I'm sure he'd appreciate you making some time for him in your schedule.>>274005946W-where is she going with that?>>274005981Nice, clean lines.>>274006604A very good try, you succeeded. Also did you do this without construction?
>>274130926Is it Rosehip?
>>274007092This has a very cool atmosphere, I'd say you don't need to prepare if you can come up with this on the fly.>>274007554Hotori! I hope you both enjoy your christmas!>>274008300Lovely colors! Also the light on that pantyhose is sublime.>>274010719I want my money back, this isn't shitty at all. You can feel the volume of those claws with no shading, and those wings look fluffy as fuck.>>274011951That's fine, I used to do something similar but there are ideas so good that it's worth to break the monotony. Also your anatomy has gotten better last I saw.>>274012801yeah I imagine those backgrounds take a good chunk of the drawing time to look as amazing as they do. That's why I tend to avoid them, this is not a cope.>>274019612It kinda reminded me of bow ditama's style, especially those eyes.>>274023931Cute Sumika! Backgrounds are always challenging, I'm glad more and more people have been drawing them lately.
>>274031335This is great, I got reminded of Irisu syndrome. A fangame with this style would definitely be popular.>>274031412Is she waiting for you? You shouldn't make her wait for too long, those sun rays are nasty.>>274031468Wew, good expression. Also not sure if you knew, but apparently there's a way to make smooth gradients with paint https://www.instructables.com/Gradients-in-MIcrosoft-Paint/ I like finding the wacky time savers you get by using paint>>274032986He's so stylish, you always manage to do justice to his looks. So there's a present for you without a doubt.>>274033191I felt the same, this month always feels so busy and it's hard to make enough time to suffer with paint. This is lovely though, I just hope she's careful with those candles up there.>>274033288She looks completely unamused. I don't really know her but she certainly looks like the serious type. You should teach her how to be a jolly elf>>274034068The only thread until February! Damn, I admire people who do lineless stuff, it makes everything look so soft. Looking respectfully>>274036739>>274066906And merry christmas to you too! Always happy to see your drawing.
>>274039633>noseI kneel, you make it look so easy but noses remain a mystery to me.>>274040644>>274067380Weeks ago actually. Those are rather peculiar decorations, but really creative of her.>>274042060Getting out of your comfort zone is good! It's how you get gooder and tougher, and that's a lovely Moose.>>274042400Lovely Minami, completely on model too. You made me want to go back and rewatch it.>>274043909Merry Christmas to you and Ayano! Also hope you had a nice birthday!>>274047105I love your choice of colors, low contrast here and there gives it a soft feel but there's just enough contrast to tell apart the important bits.>>274047587The fill tool is too powerful, it scares me. I like how you didn't shy away from drawing hands, the top one has really good shapes too.>>274048598Amazing use of line weight, also w-wew>>274052493Neat background, took me a bit to get it but I laughed. Also looks great for just that much time in paint!
I will never get a (You)
>>274130926Rosehip? She's my second favorite from then kindergarten manga. She was always getting into some kind of shenanigans.
>>274131953>>274131925>>274130937>>274132396Thanks for replying to everyone. Merry Christmas, Anon
>>274080317Drawing with a mouse is great if you want Carpal Tunnel.
>>274133101I love tunnels
>>274052928That looks really nice, what brush did you use for the shading?>>274052953That you did! You can recognize the big and important shapes, so with some practice you'll do stuff you can be proud of. I like these threads because if anything they give you a semi-regular excuse to draw.>>274053918Powerful eyebrows, very worthy of her smug aura.>>274058770Cute Minos, I remember very little of the manga but I want to pick it up back again for her and Medusa.>>274060405Very good! She has some lovely hair, don't let Nisio anywhere near her series.>>274067792Amazing, I haven't touched FT in ages but is this early Erza?>>274068392>>274069280Okay you win, I've considered doing a gif but always found it a chore. You found the way to simplify it tons, my hats off to you.>>274068832You can be, this is a marathon not a sprint. And Sakura looks really good clothing and all, cloth is easily the easiest part to overdo at the beginning.>>274068892Adorable Popu, but I think you might want to fix her mood soon, as cute as she looks right now. Also I admire drawings with some colored lines, can never make them look good.
completely forgot this was a thing this month, sketched up something quick
This thread's still up? Wouldn't call her my waifu but Yoshioka is way too cute, underappreciated girl
How does one acquire a waifu? I want one
>>274134001She chooses you!
>>274131925Thanks!>Also your anatomy has gotten better last I saw.You say so, but I plan to replicate this drawing properly but have no idea how I did it... And better doesn't mean "perfect", nevermind "good", but I guess better is fine for now. Merry Christmas
>>274134001Go to your nearest government waifu office and have one registered. You can pick one of your own or let the staff assign you one randomly
>>274131917>>274132886Close, but Rosehip is red. My Peach wife is the pink one
>>274134273I was wondering since Rosehip gets a usually red hair but sometimes with a pink tint. Peach is a cutie too. Good on you for falling for such a good girl.
>>274069301Cute Sharo, don't make her worry too much. And there's ways to work around it, one of the amazing artists above actually has it too, so don't be too discouraged!>>274069878huh, that's a novel way to do backgrounds. Have you drawn her for these threads before? This is a neat style, closer to a cartoon than the source art.>>274073708And it seems people agree she looks really good with blue. The shading on her face looks good, very solid. Also it's neat that you went for the original style.>>274073173Oh it's the dragon with the scary smile, glad to see dragons also share the holiday spirit.>>274075908Very cute style! The gap between cute appearances and strength is not to be underestimated. Also good sketch, i see the changes were minimal between it and the final result.>>274079239Great face and shading. I also like your background, maybe it's not detailed but it gives the impression of something coherent back there. It adds a lot to the thumbnail which is really important.>>274087033Cute girls in winter clothes are the best! That's some good hair, solid shapes and the shading. That kind of hair should make a comeback.>>274094938Interesting, it's rough but not in a disorderly way, some of the sketchiness gives the line some extra weight like in the neck and I think it works good.>>274096109I think it's been a while since I last saw what (I assume were) your Miias. You've gotten better at it, the tail in particular, the lines really give the illusion of volume when it twists.>>274096406wew, amazing coloring all around, I'm impressed that you even added the bounce light here and there. Also that anatomy on the limbs
>>274101635Cute! Did you also draw last thread's Makina? The face looks so cute, and there's no waste of lines. I just noticed the way to merged the shadow with the lineart on her legs, I should try that sometime.>>274112524Your Louise drawings are always lovely. I wish I had the eye to use the spray tool like you and a few others have done before.>>274120529Heh, that's a very neat idea. Good use of a minimal background and colors too, everything to make her pop up.>>274120538Agree with the other anon, I'd believe you if you told me you've done lots of pixel art before.>>274130045Really impressive! Sweaters are great, she really rocks it. Are you separating the foreground and background by colors for the coloring? If so, that's clever, also good luck with that background>>274132385Well damn, this is an amazing Zelda, looks like Paint is your turf. I've wanted to draw her for a while but rl keeps getting in the way. One day. Hope you both have a merry christmas!>>274130926I don't really know my guppies , but I think you've captured her well. I feel drawing full body is intimidating but you did well proportions-wise.>>274133468I just fill my calendar for the next year and hope my phone it doesn't die. Also amazing stuff I love your line confidence, I think I don't often see your more serious drawings so this is really neat to see.>>274134148Don't let my comments ( or lack of it) bring you down. If anything, I hope more people keep trying for these threads like I did years ago, getting better or just having fun is valid too. So I hope to see you and everyone here in some future thread>>274132997Sorry to disappoint, but it's not everyone. Still merry christmas to you and everyone here!
>Skipped
>>274134741Why live
>>274130937She's going home to see me on that !
Half assed it. She would hate me.I will not be found wanting next time. >>274124261t-t-thanks
>>274136884For some reason I thought the sketch had her in a bath tub
>>274136899Ehhh, in the original drafts before committing to Paint it was supposed to be a top view of her in the entrance of her apartment but really fucked the perspective and I am too retarded to correct course without plagiarizing from a reference.I have two months to try to stop being less of a fucking embarrassment.>Bath tubI will try that next time. With loads a skin and flowers and maybe a simple background.Good night, anon!!!!
>>274133969She's cute, thick eyebrows are the best! Should I watch Mitsudomoe?
>>274134698Thank you! I'm not good in paint but I like how simple it is hehe And I understand. It has been a bit since I've been free to draw her too... I hope your christmas is merry as well!!
bumb?
>>274139270Kawawii~!
Can we close shop now? I don't think there are anymore customers
>>274139368Yeah. Janny please do your job
>>274112524I really really like the colouring on this one! Great work!
shut it down
>>274141440Cute!!!
I was igrored by massreply anon, next time I'll try to make my drawing better and more noticeable.
>>274143599He gave me a (You) and that way he saved the marriage. I really want something pencil like to draw her.
>>274134698Thank you anon!>Are you separating the foreground and background by colors for the coloring? Yes but I use the secondary colour of the eraser for all sorts of things like shading or fixing lineart. Having separate colours also makes things clearer for me to see and not mess up.>good luck with that backgroundT-Thanks but I ended up compromising a lot so save time so it's not exactly polished. Still it's much more than I was able to accomplish a year ago!
>>274143599Same here, it's okay. We'll get them next time! But I don't draw for him, I draw for my waifu only
>>274137075>Should I watch Mitsudomoe?Most definitely, one of the best anime comedies with a great source material and a team who only elevated the experience
Almost done....
Hurry anon!
Phew, barely made it. I promised Hibari a poem last time and didn't deliver. This time, though, I came prepared. I hope he likes it!>Your warmth beside me while memories fall>You laugh at a joke, or a word, or nothing--your smile is my meaning>Your face halo'd by the divinity of Christmas lights while I brush snow off, leaning in for a kiss>Songs pass through our lips, sung in turn and then all at once. My feet are numb but I find I don't mind>You pull me forward, up, while I stay in place, no longer held in place by->-I can't remember, and I no longer care
>>274152386very moody, i like how you got the lights to reflect in the background
>>274005931Slapped on some colours
>>274153122I'm glad you did! I love how vibrant they are, and how cool they look with that fat rectangular brush
>>274137075ofc you bwaaaka
>>274134558>You've gotten better at it, the tail in particular, the lines really give the illusion of volume when it twists.Much appreciated. I really only draw when these times come up, and drawing her full body always feels phoned in a bit to some extent when I make an attempt, but slowly but surely im learning a little bit.
>>274146996>>274143599>>274144685Mass reply guy is the same as the OP and you wont get your reply unless you are approved by their secret mexican and argentinian discord club. Some insider also posted screencaps of the members laughing at the really bad ones.
>>274156178this schizophrenic theory falls apart when you realize a lot of the "bad" ones are the ones he goes out of the way to give (you)s. Also he's given me some before and I'm certainly not in any discord. Sometimes he just misses people I think.
>>274152386would bleed out in the background
>>274152386Fantastic work, glad you made it. You've captured the vibe of those misty early winter nights beautifully, I can almost feel the damp air. Is this meant to represent anywhere in particular? Hibari looks great too, the subtle glow of the cig is very aesthetic. >>274153122Looking good, the colors add a lot. Very pretty eye and hair highlights, and the bright outfit suits his sense of style well. Those earmuffs got a smile out of me ha, didn't notice them the first time. Clever touch.
>>274139270cute drawing okarun
>Nobody liked mine
>>274152386damn, this came out awesome man
>>274081616I'll look forward to it! Curious what it was that the idea was flexible like that, unless it just wasn't really Christmas related.>>274159156Thanks! It's based on a photo I took along the shoreline of the river that flows through the downtown area of my home city (I'd post it, but I don't want to take up an image slot). I wanted to do something more nostalgic with lots of snow and referencing my favorite of all days, Christmas Eve...but all my ideas were frankly way outside my artistic capability. So! Something more "contemporary Christmas", when it doesn't really snow at all anymore and it's early winter vibes until summer rolls around, and that's also a bit simpler to draw. This was gonna be my idea for February, guess I'll have to think up something new...>>274158789Considering it's one of the murder capitals of the US, plenty of people probably do...>>274153089>>274159727Thanks! I'm mildly proud of the difference between the first thing I posted in these threads and this one.
J-Just a little longer...
>>274159920She loves you.
>>274162073MS Paint-Chan would never betray me.
>Didn't get a reply.Just fucking nuke this thread already.
>>274162443there are so many images it happens sometimes, esp if yours is posted toward the middle
>>274162443Maybe if you draw something actually good
>>274043902Well damn is she from Seianaru?Hope you've been good to her, otherwise it might be something real painful for you
>>274163300You are right.
I'm not a gay nigger so I don't have a waifu, sorry
>>274163187It is targeted
>>274163822target this *grabs own nuts*>>274115050>>274124237>>274075936>>274055341>>274045217
>>274075936Very fun and good drawing. The detailed background is very cool.
>>274115050Amazing job with her hair, face, and hands. Those are the most important and difficult parts. The foreshortening of the arm needs work, tho
>>274159867>unless it just wasn't really Christmas related.Sort of, it was a shopping date kind of deal. I had a 'stocking up before Christmas' slant in mind, but I guess it's not like you can't go to the mall any other time. Discounting the fact that the mall I had in mind was torn down over a decade ago, anyway.>all my ideas were frankly way outside my artistic capabilityEhh I dunno, you've made a lot of progress over just the past few threads. If it's not within your purview now, I'm certain it will be by this time next year. Put a pin in it and all, heh. At any rate, a comfy nightwalk along the riverfront is as good a date idea as any. Lovely poem as well by the way, it paints a wonderful picture.>one of the murder capitals of the USWhat a shame. Breaks my heart to see beautiful places being destroyed by pointless violence.
>>274159920She's a real cutie. When are you getting hitched?
>>274164537And it's not like people don't shop on Valentine's Day, either! I'm sure it'll work wonderfully if you go for it. Plus I just love to see old malls, and I'd love to see your take on one. I'm not sure how to phrase this exactly, but you do good spaces, and in such a way that would do a mall scene justice.>I'm certain it will be by this time next year. Maybe! We'll see. Part of the reason I gave up art back in high school was practicing is SUCH a drag. The minute drawing starts to feel like work I lose all interest. Who knows though, maybe something will click someday.>comfy nightwalk along the riverfront is as good a date idea as anyI love walking around dead cities at night, especially while on benzos, which is what I pictured would be the case here. The world is so quiet and still and you feel so free. I can only imagine it's even better with the one you love. Taking a moment to smoke in the middle of all this is the peak of romance in my mind.>What a shame.It is what it is! I think it's always been like this. Though Kodak going bankrupt and leaving the city in its current state of decay certainly hasn't help any.
>>274159867Detroit? Gary?
I only just started and have to go to work in less than 7 hours and sleep. If this thread is somehow alive tomorrow afternoon I will keep on working on this until my waifu(male), has something worthwhile.
>>274163187If you pay attention to which images are included in the mass replies, it's always the same characters. Mass reply anons will never reply to your post unless it's top tier or he is friends with the anon who drew it
>>274165436What anons get ignored?
>>274164537Oh, and thanks for your kind words about the poem!>>274165343Good ol' Rochester NY! I really do miss it sometimes.
>>274165436>it's always the same characterswell, yeah. if people don't know the character they're less likely to replypretty expected especially in a waifu thred
>>274165145Right yea, it's not far off thematically.>you do good spaces, and in such a way that would do a mall scene justice.Well thank you, I really appreciate that. It's a nice feeling to get some new eyes on these largely forgotten places, I'd draw them all day every day if I could. These threads are a blessed excuse to spend the extra time and effort on it.>practicing is SUCH a drag. The minute drawing starts to feel like work I lose all interest.Oh gosh, too true. People talk about grinding fundies and all, I could never. The lack of real, intentional practice is probably why it's taken me so long to get where I am now, whereas artists who "properly" build their skills get twice the gains in half the time. That aside, in your case I think something already has clicked. Your latest piece here is mint; the reflected lighting on the water, the depth of field, actually putting the spray can to effective use - you clearly have a great sense for this kind of thing. Looking forward to what you come up with next time! >I can only imagine it's even better with the one you love.As could be said for just about everything, heh. >I think it's always been like this.Maybe. I guess my perspective is a bit different, being in a place where you can see the collapse happening realtime.
I feel like I've let her down with how little energy for art I've had lately.This is all I can do.
>>274170008I like it
>>274165436>dancing around the issue instead of being cleargossip bitch mentality
>>273992620Is tracing allowed? I can't draw
>>274172413Its not a competition anon, its to have fun also the curve tool exists
ist es over?
>>274170008That's how it is sometimes. The fact that you tried is already amazing. Great expression, good work
>>274165412That's a nice face, and the hair has a very nice flow. Super cute bird!
Hey we almost made it through a week
>>274031335I like the stark coloring here>>274031566and the more pastel coloring here. These pics somehow make me feel nostalgic for Win95/Win3.1 times.
>>274054777I like her exuberant attitude.
>>274164509Is your waifu the night?
>>274177811Thank you! She was bewildered by all the art itt.
>>274035073oh no! Anon help your wife!I like the linework on her face!
>>274040551not sure if that's a portrait of your waifu but I like the character's smug face
>>274045217what a mighty dude. Even though his face is small, I can tell how self-assured he is
>>274124237that's Picard, right?He looks like someone I'd trust my life to
>>274055341She looks like a spooky ghostAren't you scared of your wife anon?
>>274145673This one looks gorgeous. Love the shading, and I envy you, I can't draw feet properly...
CHOTTO MATTE!It's not over until I say it's over-sa! This thread isn't going anywhere without MY waifu!Now that I made it on time, I wish you all a Merry Xmas, and an early Happy New Year! Have a blessed one with your wifeus and husbandoes, everyone!
>>274178633Thank you anonIt actually took me a LOT of redraws to get the feet right so don't feel so bad!
Hope you have a wonderful christmas with your waifu, anon
You have very little time left to finish drawing your waifu.
I believe in you anon!
>>274167407I mean I'm not sure if this is your bag at all, but I'm sure you could make some killer gondolas if you wanted more excuses to draw those sorts of places. Gondolas are necessarily sentimental.>People talk about grinding fundies and all, I could neverI don't know your reasons, but for me (beyond just simple laziness) my drive for any sort of artistic expression is purely emotive, prime example being my love for Hibari. Reducing it to essentially simple mechanics, something technical to master removed from emotion and the magic is gone. An argument could be made that such mastery leads to increased ability to express oneself clearly, and that's probably why I'll end up actually learning how to draw, if ever, but as it stands it's a hump I have yet to get over>being in a place where you can see the collapse happening realtime.That's fair. Kodak was kaput before I was an itch in my dad's nuts, so all I've ever known of the cities alleged greatness has been other people's memories which made loving it for what it is now all the easier. Yours I imagine is more tragic, knowing firsthand what it used to be.
close this
Anyone still working?
not me
see you next year, anon
goodnight
Anon... This is my last bump.
>>274178708Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!
>>274134558>Cute girls in winter clothes are the best! That's some good hair, solid shapes and the shading. That kind of hair should make a comeback.Thank you very much!Yeah, side ponytails pretty rare nowadays except in gacha, really miss the special kind of playful nature it represents.
>>274178708The snowman's looking pretty funky there but hey, she looks like she's enjoying herself at least!Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too!
>>274180967I like how the shape is defined clearly even with so little line, and the perspective is done so well, good work!May you have a wonderful christmas too!
>>274164509Subtle, but damn I don't know who this is.
>>274141440This is so accurately well done I really don't have much to comment other than good job.I especially like how you adapt the eyes colouring, I should steal it sometimes
>>274124237I don't like how smug this old man looksHis energy mocks me
it was an honor, gentlemen
>>274012354Huh, this looks pretty simple, but the composition is somehow so well done it did a really good job pulling my attention into the focal point.Interesting, and cute!
>>274003782Eh, I say you still got enough to talent to recognize whether something looks goodLike, I can see why you attempted to draw that Shinobu, good feminine pose, wind blowing her hair adds dynamic, etcThe rest is just learnable hard work, I say, we all just need to start somewhere
Good work guysMerry Christmas and see you all next year
