Why do you got this obsession over board tans?

you had like 150+ image slots and the last one was on page 8, it wouldn't have hurted to wait a bit more

To answer your question, anon? It isn't an obsession, since I hopped off a couple of times; but more of something I grew to really like, especially since I come back here; just remembering that it was something that I started off with, and what I like to go back to at times.
>>689507
I'm just very used to /vg/, friend. they usually make new threads at around page 7 or 8 after post capacity is reached. same goes with /trash/. I got too used to them, I guess.
>>689509
Even I laugh at myself sometimes for acting like one, anon. So, I know that I'm prone to making mistakes.

Me too, fren. There's just something about these board-tans that kinda give this site life.
I had the idea of making a YT skit/video thing about a sitcom between the board tans, but my lack of ability in digital arts largely hinders that.

>>689520
If you can't draw well but you really want to do it why don't you use software that allows you to create characters?
I've seen on youtube you can create tons of stuff with Gacha Life

>>689587
>Gacha Life
Searched it. That really looks like visual autism, and not the good kind.
And I really doubt I can translate a lot of board-tan appearances to that anyhow.
Are my standards too high for something like this?

I'll be honest with you
Most Gacha Life creators are females so maybe that's why you don't understand the female autism, but it's a good start if you want to recreate board-tans and make mini stories with them
Now if you don't like those visuals you can try something else, I don't know more programs but something that comes to my mind more 4chan friendly is Artificial Academy, you can create your own characters and they can interact with each other with teenage drama in an anime-style school

The shimmie still seems to be down and zecro is missing, but someone on /co/ downloaded a bunch of art from the shimmie and uploaded it to a dropbox. I think it was taken down because of the large amount of traffic so /co/'s backup board made a public mirror. Here is the link and /vrpg/'s tan booru if anyone wants it
https://plus4chan.org/board-tans.zip

>>689622
>Artificial Academy
An eroge, huh? I guess I'm not surprised, but the idea of me using an NSFW game to make mostly SFW stuff is going to go over the heads of most people, even if the designs look more polished.
The fact that it's limited to teenage drama in an anime-style school is also a bit of a downside.
Still... it's something worth considering, but maybe someone else ITT will be able to suggest other programs that can work for creating a boardtan sitcom the way I hope it to.

what if the young board-tans each had a superpower and their own superhero outfit
i've thought about /jp/ being able to read minds, /s4s/ having stretch powers, /i/ drawing and erasing real world objects, /cm/ turning into cute animals, /c/ shrinking and growing, /qst/ summoning shields and weapons at his disposal, and /wsr/ able to fly
but the twist is that they suck at crime fighting and often accidentally their way into foiling evil

I posted it because anon mentioned agroup of superheroes and it reminded me of that squad pic that could be superheroes too

>>693498
malaysian mike is "maldraw". he was an "artist" who got laughed out of /ic/ and /pol/.
when /c/ and /pol/ dated at the winter ball, maldraw drew some content. it was shit tier.
he was autistic even by /pol/'s standards. he commanded control over every drawthread, shat on other drawfags (even shat on the same image five times in one thread) (it was miles better than his shit).
being a sort of rare flag, he was instantly recognized in drawthreads and /pol/ called him malaysian mike.
after trump won he snapped and became full sjw because his patreon has dried up and nobody took him seriously any more. he kept shilling christ-chan on /pol/ then complained when he got banned. maldraw also traces shit and literally tries to sell traced garbage for 100 dollars.
also, fun fact, he drew the first trump pepe, the one being smug in front of illegal mexicans at the fence. then he tried to shill hillary pepe and hilldawg memes.
maldraw spent the trump years on twitter, resenting /pol/ for throwing him away, exposing random /pol/ raid threads on his twitter.
in short, massive faggot.

>>704562
>whats a boardtan
Literally, a 4chan board personified.
>what are their stories
Well just imagine "What if 4chan boards were people and what if they all lived together as one big retarded family?" Some board-tans are married like /ck/-/co/ and /int/-/s4s/, some are related like /v/ and most other vidya boards as well as /jp/. Some board-tans are friends with common interests between the two real boards, or friends because they share users. Stories boil down to how boards would interact and play off one another.
>how do anons agree upon what a certain boards tan will look like?
I might be spitballing a bit but back when board-tans were first popularized, around 2009-2012, designs would be thrown around. Sometimes the actual board will have a thread for their own board-tan and eventually a popular design emerges. That design ultimately sticks. /v/-tan actually used to have a lean, vidya nerd design with glasses and facial hair, but the /v/-rage animation from so long ago changed him to the perma-angry RAGE /v/-tan we all know and love. There were also different designs for /jp/, /pol/ (when he was /new/) and /lit/.

Yeah this. I mainly draw 4 boards interacting with each other due to their history. /new/, /lit/, /sci/, /int/, and /adv/ (which was advice dog back then so I couldn't do anything for their board tan being an old meme) all share the same birthdays, but /new/ was carried over from /n/ users, and previously /n/ users were from mostly /k/.

Yea I was supposed to make animations a while back, but I got caught up in my school studies. I'm also involved in things like 3d printing and machining

things changed like making /pol/ representative of 2010ish and earlier (despite the board being created in 2011), and the characters I'm creating for the weekly /co/ thread seem to be representative of gen z years later due to social justice being pushed on media platforms (2015-?)

I also have a gen alpha or whatever the generation is called but he keeps changing due to whatever is going on these days

Now that's a cute /c/
Could you draw /v/ playing vidya with her, /s4s/ and /jp/?
/v/ is obviously getting destroyed even though /c/ is holding the controller in one hand and pressing buttons with the other, and /s4s/ is holding hers upside down

>>720695
Glad you understand, fren.
I'll be sure to pounce upon this thread with requests when I have them.

This is what happens when /v/ is forced to babysit.

I'll probably be drawing more but that won't be until after my finals.

I'm picking up my 3d modeling stuff again but making objects.

>>722157
You made those? Cool! You have a site or you only post here?

>>689497
Anyone taking a drawing request?
I'm hoping to have one of a "family photo" with /v/ and all the other v-related boards, smiling and photo-bombing each other.
Requesting in 1400x1400.

Be honest, /i/, would you have /pol/-chan as your gf, even if she's as crazy as your average /pol/tard stormnigger?

Well, screw it. I couldn't hold in my autism anymore.
I saw that some of the boards have 'human names' corresponding to the letters on the board, and I thought, why not give them all human names too?
It's admitedly harder for me to come up with names for some boards more than others, but I tried making the best of what I had. But basically:
>White for personal suggestions
>Green names are those that officially have human names
>Italicised names underneath green ones are those that I suggested anyway seeing how.
Feel free to give your thoughts! I'd like to maybe finalise one or two on my list, or offer suggestions for better names when you can. Some like /jp/ for instance was incredibly hard to come up with without breaking the letters all around.
Maybe share them around to the other boards and see what they think too.

>>723613
I have Poe for /pol/.

will probably use Elliot for /lit/.

>>723613
/d/ is Demona
/ck/ is Becky
I'm 80% sure /aco/ is Jacolyn
/int/ is just Intura
/wsr/ is Wasuri
/tg/ is always gonna be called Teej. In fact, I'll suggest TJ as a name.

I'll throw in my support for /e/chiko, /gif/frey, /h/enako, e/s/telle, /t/each, /3/nity, /an/nie, /mu/eller, /po/lly and /sci/mon.
Geoffrey fits too well.
Echiko and Henako, good Japanese names.
Estelle is exactly the name I think of when I think of a burlesque show.
Teach, good reference to piracy.
Trinity is definitely a good Matrix reference
Annie and Polly fit well for your average lady
Mueller sounds so patrician, perfect for /mu/
And honestly I think I've seen /sci/ called Simon before.

Thanks for your suggestions and corrections! Here's the updated sheet of our board-tan human names.
I wonder if I should get /wsr/ in on this too.
>>723675
>Poe for /pol/
I dunno about that one, feels a bit missing the "l" for his namesakse. It's why I went with calling him "Paul" and even gave him the Newman surname, even if IRL it's actually (((Jewish))).
>Elliot for /lit/
Same problem here. El/li/o/t/ feels a bit of a stretch.
>>723678
>/int/ is just Intura
I feel that's a terrible idea for a name, but I'll update the list. I can just put the suggestions I made as merely "personal alternatives" anyhow.
>I think I've seen /sci/ called Simon before.
Might've seen that on either the /co/nservatory or 1d4chan. It's where I got the info for this.
>/ck/ is Becky
I always thought she was a Becky when I looked at her! It just felt so right.
>/tg/ is always gonna be called Teej. In fact, I'll suggest TJ as a name.
That's probably better for it. I tried looking for IRL "tg" name combos and I really don't think he's the kind of guy with a name like "Montgomery" or even "Teague". Maybe "Torgny" though. Feels like he's got that Norwegian metal band hair thing going on.

>>723700
>I dunno about that one, feels a bit missing the "l" for his namesakse. It's why I went with calling him "Paul"

I just like Poe better because it's based off the internet adage "Poe's Law".

The board call themselves e/lit/ists, so Elliot isn't really that big of a jump since it sounds like elitist.

I see now.
That being said, I would prefer to have the boards name themselves in line with how the boards themselves would want to name themselves, if you get what I mean.
Now that I think about it, maybe I can add "Leo/pol/d" as another alternative name for the board-tan as well.
>>723818
>so Elliot isn't really that big of a jump since it sounds like elitist
I guess I should put that down as an option anyway. Can El/lit/ (Elliot) also be consider a girl's name as well in some instances?

>Can El/lit/ (Elliot) also be consider a girl's name as well in some instances?

Possibly. I'm always gonna draw /lit/ as a guy though. I think he has an elitist personality and it's a board that considers itself better read than everyone.

>>724051
But to be fair, i try to keep board tans from being just waifuism by making male board tans interact like male 4channers.

but then again i will probably make gay shit

>>724052
>i try to keep board tans from being just waifuism by making male board tans interact like male 4channers
I imagine that's how the board-tans would act like anyway, as extensions of the board users themselves, and given personal experiences with posting on some of the boards themselves, well, let's just say that I'd definitely hate being with stuck with some tans more than others.
>but then again i will probably make gay shit
/y/ get out.

>>724061
>/y/ get out.

/u/ get out

>>724153
No (/u/)
I never said anything about shipping two girl boardtans together like some y/u/ricuck.

>>724186
I can't help that i like the gay shit anon.

>>724201
Sure, but consider that you're attempt to keep board tans from being just waifuism ended up turning into husbandoism instead due to the gayshit.
So really, at this point you're just trading one kind of problem for another.

>>724186
Shipping girl board tans is based tho
Don’t you want to see ladies making out or girls having crushes?

This is cringe and autism.

And I'm thankful for it because it makes me feel less cringe and autist for having my own headcanon world using board-tans from here and other imageboards and so on.

Here's some names I've used myself-

David Ian James for /v/- idea being "david ian" "da vidian" "vidya"
In turn I'd used /v/ictor for /vg/- the "v c" sound was close enough to /vg/ for me. Might go with Vaughn now and lift your suggestion.
I gave Ro/x/anne the surname Morrison as a reference to /co/ author and wannabe magician Grant Morrison.
Trudy for /3/- sounds like "three d"
Jodie Pea James for /jp/- I like Juniper though and will lift that.
I have /tg/ as Thomas Gerald Rogers- pretty sure I added the Rogers just to have a surname.
Paul is an obvious choice for /pol/, yeah. The image you've got there was drawn for me and was intended specifically for eight-chan so it always amuses me it's somehow circulated back here, as does the choice of the /v/ family using James as a surname.
I have /toy/ as Toriko Lector- "toy collector".
I put down the surname for /co/nrad as "tanner" for the shortening to /co/tan, for what's worth
I had /vmg/ as "Evie Megan James" but I like your use of Maggie
I had /m/usashi's surname as Yuuma, legit couldn't tell you why since it's been so long since I've done my notes
I had /e/ as /e/llie bushnell but again, no idea where I took the surname from, and I like your /e/velyn instead
I drew a lot of shitposts with that 4chan vtuber design back in the day, calling her "shill-chan"- is it really considered the board-tan of /vt/?

Thank you for this, I'll lift some more stuff up from it, feel free to use anything from my notes if you want but also feel free to say fuck off and ignore it. Shoutouts to us idiots who get too attached to these designs and make up all this bullshit about them

>>724216
Not really.

I didn't think that gender mattered with board tans in the beginning and have drawn boards as both genders, but my preference for drawing males are just stronger than my preference for drawing females. If I drew females all the time I wouldn't have even attempted to draw longer term comics, and it's not my thing to drew cute shit.

I just don't like drawing females.

>>724236
Not my thing bro

>>724256
Exactly. We've got /cock/ and /kan/ already, and honestly, all the better for it.

Vincent for /v/
Virgil for /vg/
Virginnia for /vmg/ (double 'n' resembles an 'm')
Vermont for /vm/
Thiago for /tg/

I see that everybody is talking about there "names" I wonder what would there last names be?

>>724361
it wouldn't hurt if you post some, I don't remember seeing that much of them, isn't it funny how those are the only ones? there's tons of boys and girls that can be shipped but there's barely any of it, the recent straight ship is /jp/ and /v/ but that's so fucked up

>>724469
haha nice 69 also agreed I think the /jp/ and /v/ ship is just fucking messed up and the fnf mod made it even worse

I remember not having a good impression on the guy who made the /v/ raping /jp/ comic. There were some of us working on PHM with him and other artists a long time ago.

Anyway that guy also did /s4s/ stuff so, either he's the kind that does for shock value with lolicon or he is an actual lolicon. Never did keep up with him but I always thought somewhere in the back of my mind, he'll be persistent enough to pressure other artists into the lolicon stuff. Hope he got help.

>>724473

Thanks for your suggestions! I've reorganised the ones I thought sounded best into the list here.
I wonder if there's a way we can ask all the boards to deliberate on these names themselves though, if that doesn't sound too autistic to do.
>>724469
>>724473
>>724481
That sounds awful.
I honestly thought nothing too serious of it and thought that the whole /v/ raping /jp/ thing was just 4chan being 4chan with nonsensical shock stuff. The fact that /v/ mentions that scene where /vr/ says "Mario is a nigger" didn't make me think much of it either.
It's a shame the guy turned out to be an absolutely disturbed individual.

How many other boards actively make successful -tan threads?
>>>/vrpg/2857590

>>724934
/u/ has one
Tan yuri threads are common, not enough to maintain an active general

>>724934
Perhaps I should ask /mlp/ to update their ponified board tans again.
The last version they had was in 2018.

Well, why not? I think it would be interesting to see what the board-tans would like as different types of things in other contexts: Ponies, mechas, mootcats, deer...
Honestly, if I had enough talent, I would've tried to draw what I think each of the board-tans would look like as anthros, though I'd personally limit myself to keep to animals found in the real world.

>>725112
Would be nice seeing them drawn like real people, even with height and age stats.

Who're canonically the oldest and youngest tans?

>>725394
I believe /i/ is listed as 7.

>>725394
And /his/ would technically be in the thousands.

>>725121
1d4chan and the /co/nservatory Wiki might have you covered on that.
Although the details are sparse and drawings of the board-tans as real people are going to be hard to come by, not sure if there's interest on /ic/ to draw >for free either.

>>725889
I was in an edit war with some dude or dudes on /pol/'s 1d4chan page

i wanna say don't take things seriously on 1d4chan. there's usually some person editing the pages and undoing or adding things that I don't agree with, but I'm usually not online very much to defend my edits

>>725981
Well, what did you go to edit war with the anon(s) about on /pol/?

>>690505
So are we gonna update the list >>724915 with this or what?

>>726001
A lot.

Mainly i think we both had different opinions on where to take /pol/'s route and neither of us would back down, so I walked away and did my own thing

>>725889
>drawings of the board-tans as real people

I think I drew one of /pol/ that was on the shimmie but i thought it looked too pretty lul

Here it is

when he was /new/
So maybe mid or late 20s

His human version story is that he used to live with /n/, who is his uncle, and who likes to scare him and crush his dreams as a kid so that's how he came to be who he is. Lol yeah that's probably a discrepancy with /n/ as a female tan, but board tans are always up to interpretation

I have a story of him coming home from kindergarten one day and /n/ is on the floor with blood everywhere. It traumatized /new/ but it turns out to be one of /n/'s many jokes because he's an ass. There was even an incident involving trains and /new/ doesn't want to talk about it
