>>7215128old vastian discord id doesn't work
What's the /dad/ discord is like? Is it cozy and comfy? While certainly nodraws are non-existent, how many powertripping mods and oldfags are there?
thank you new bread baker
>>7215161it’s mostly chill and comfy. the sensitive drama folks are long gone.
>>7215161i like it
When the site's gone (in 2 months) I wont forget you guys (lie)
>>7215287your mom (fat) you (stoopid)
>no tableguy posts for 1/2 yearhm...
>>7215327Who
>>7215336The anon who draws heavily stylized skinny bitches.
>>7215336The most hated man on /ic/
>>7215365it's just 2 guys (probably the same guy) that hates him who is terminally online and chases him around in every thread. We love you table, come back
>>7215371iirc, he's got family responsibilities. I miss his octuple chested ladies, though. A true hero of our time.
>>7215387>family responsibilitiesNGMI
I can almost see the lines. They're forming.
>>7215161it's EVIL and a PONZI SCHEME meant to DRAIN you of ALL YOUR ART GAINS
I’m not feeling discouraged so far.
>>7215550Hello slime, goblin, racoon disney rape fetish anon. How do you do?
He's Jewish.
kikes are 'aight as long as they're not talmudic and payz 'jizya
>>7215567I’ve not drawn slime in quite a while.
>>7215365I thought that was Pawell. Or gains goblin. Or this asshole >>7215550
>>7215778How about now? The last thing I saw from you is some big spider penis :)
>>7215813The last time I recall drawing spiders was this one from January 2022. I’ve gotten way worse since then. I focus more on my straight shota/furry stuff lately, like here. >>7215778Nobody likes it.
>>7215816>2022I left /ic/ for 2 years thats why. >nobody like itpeople from /beg/ do your stuff. You can always watch more hentai/porn to see the appeal.
>>7215824Nah. The people from /beg/ give me lots of shit, too. Kind of like the situation here >>7215371 I’ve probably just got a couple of very dedicated crabs. Although other people find the idea of a twelve year old boy with an adult raccoon sex slave kind of weird (although my shtick is that while she WANTS to be a sex slave, he just treats her like his pet.)
>>7215836Most of /ic/ goers are socially maladjusted, terminal online weirdos. Getting shat on is to be expected.
>>7215854Thanks. So what’ve you been drawing? What’d you do during the 2 years away?
>>7215792you forgot gabe
>>7215857Play a bunch of gacha games without drawing much. I am trying to get the rust off. Just post your stuff really, and try not to take things too seriously.
>>7215778i really love the way you draw and structure things. really inspiring
I want to have sex
I will protect all female DADs from you predators
i love school boys
>>7215902What a coincidence :)Send me a message: Paganini#0312
>>7215903I'll fuck you in the ass>>7215951No
>>7216040y not?
Whores are legal where I live so sex is no issue
i will never have sex
>>7216077What a coincidence :)Wanna change your destiny with me?
>>7216080What's ur destiny?
>>7216093oh, uhm, i was trying to be funny and with the "What a coincidence" comment imply that I will never have sex either, unless something changes
>>7215816She's hot! Nice one anon!
>>7215903thanks but I larp as a male, it's easier this way
If I was born with a brain I'd be unstoppable.
I have no idea how to draw good humans. I can make good eyes. All of the lips I draw always look the same. The nose turns the whole thing into one of those realism arts or is too simple where it conflicts. Unless it's something simple like a hime cut, the hair looks very bad.
>>7215128These month long streak-based challenges are too draining. Next time make it submission based, 15 subs required.
my first page is filled with unicorns
>>7216197Only join challenges you'll actually have fun doing then retard
>>7216226It's like having sex. Fun when you nut the first 2 times. I am still having fun, but a little tired.
>>7216197>challenge is too challenging
>>7216197the upcoming coom one is exactly that
>end in july 1stIs this the final day of the horse challenge?
>>7216259speaking of that one, does it need to be 15 unique pieces or can there be multiple updates to a piece?
Is DAD dead or something? The only one who has posted any drawings is a schizo?
>>7216302Why posting stuff itt while you can post on the real site?
>>7216101Oh. What's the point of the exchange then?
>>7216400Anon. The point was to make you amused enough that we would meet in real life and have sex. Really, forcing me to explain the joke like that... I'll forgive you only if you'll flirt back ;)
SEX-HAVERS SHOULD KILL THEMSELVES. THIS IS A PROUD INCEL WEBSITE DIE NORMIES!!!!!!!!!!
>>7216604I wonder how does it feels to be inside of another person...
>>7216159>I larp as a malethat's a really ballsy move
some dad hit on me years ago in these threads and it was so smooth I still think about it every now and then
I think we should migrate from dad discord onto habbo hotel
Self deprecation doesn't just get you nowhere, it drills you back into the fucking ground. Stop being a preemptively defensive pussy and putting your art down.
>>7216855? What are you talking about?
>>7216615More like a "dick move"... amirite?
>>7216874hehe
>>7216855you're right. Even if this isn't directed at me specifically, it's something I worry about doing. Honestly, I'm very proud of my overall progress since I started, but I try to be realistic of how much more I have to learn still with my self-crits. Beating myself up over it doesn't help, though.
>>7216501>I'll forgive you only if you'll flirt back ;)Have you seen yourself?--Have you seen MYSELF?no. for the sake of both of us no>>7216607Weren't you born of a woman?
>>7216855It relieves me of responsibility for my failures and gives me the moral right to continue plunging into the swamp because I'm worthless anyway so why not
self deprecation is good because it forces you to improve. there is nobody you want to disappoint less than yourself
>>7216924>Have you seen yourself?Sigh. When will I find someone with an "ugly bastard" fetish...
Im sensing a certain dad will do something bad to themselves and they should reconsider
Don't worry I don't have enough courage fro that
>>7217010I'm not sure what are you referring to, Anon - I've looked through all submissions from today and everything seemed perfectly normal.
>>7217023Never become a crime investigator
>>7217023He's retarded. Don't worry about it.
>>7217023didn't you see... THAT submission? you know.. the one that held a bunch of WICKED aura??
Big updates soonmp4 on the way among other things
>>7217489Based hack
>>7217481well, now that you mention it, the way OrokanaIkimono talked about his night shift really did sound like thatPoor guy.
(((They've))) been saying updates soon for years.
>>7217552>(((They've)))Nsix is nonbinary?!:O
>>7217489mp5 update
... I made it
>>7217599you made what
>>7217601Made out with both your mom and dad. The now love me more than you! Beetch!
>>7217604damn
Scenes from my last lucid dream (first in a long time).Some crowded chinese market that devolved into a western themed skyscraper, which I tried to super hero punch from high up, but crashed a dozen meters off mark.
I'm new and I submitted a drawing but I can't see it for some reason, the page is blankDid this happen to anyone else?
>>7218329Reason: you updated the submission with the same file name. You need to change the file name of your sub ex: girl to girl_1, girl_a, etc,It's a known glitch. * You can not update yesterday submissions.
>>7218341Oh, that's weird, thanks for the explanation
Just another thing that will be fixed 'soon'.
The year is half over. How are you doing on your goals for the year?
>>7218603I didn't bother to set any
>>7218603Pretty good so far but have yet to crunch that short movie. We will see if I can make it.
>>7218603SURPASSING OR SURPASSED
Whats this "artfight" thing i see ppl post about? Sounds interesting
>>7215128Had you ever gained inspiration from /dad/? Name the one thing that you learnt.
>>7218968Those are two very different questions, Anon.I've gained inspiration from dad many times, mostly in the form of cool compositions, color palettes, design elements and poses that could be used for my own art. But I'm not sure if there's much learning to be done there - usually critiques I got there have lead to me to other places to learn from, like specific courses.
>>7218603I think Ive done half of my resolutions, so I'm right on track desu
>>7218603This is the year I learn Anatomy. (I haven't made it past page one of the Introduction). Seven months of progress.
>>7218965Offsite yearly event running for nearly 10ish years now I think. You pick one of two teams and draw the opposing teams' characters to gain points. You get more points based on what kind of drawing you submit, i.e., a fullbody colored illustration scores more points than an uncolored sketch of an oc would.
>>7219222Dang that sounds like fun! Would've loved to try it out.
>>7218603No. I’m still here.
Starting a season of mecha studies on Sunday atelier in the dadcord
>>7219233I don't think they close entering while it's happening so you can probably still make a account and do it if you want.
>>7218603I failed all of my new year resolutions, except drawing daily.
>>7218968TECHNIQUESSeeing the embarrassing shitty wips teaches you more than a cultured 'best of' social media feed.
>>7219708Got a link to the event anon?
>>7219893you might be the shittiest artist I've ever seen without seeing your work, if you expend more effort asking someone to google something for you. Lacking self agency and resourcefulness needed to be a GMI. Course correct please.
>>7219954rough
>>7219954kek, you're seething so much, because you can't find that link eitherpyl (post your link)
>>7219954based
>>7219954Fair
Now this is what I call an art fight
>>7219954I-I was just making conversation...
>>7220134don't
>>7220506
I give up now, I don't want to draw any more
>>7220814PYW and I'll give you a commpliment/crit, then you'll feel good again!
>>7220814I wish more page1'ers would admit this to themselves *sighs*
>>7215792No it's the guy who does oil paintings, I think his name is Robbie or something I can't remember. I do remember he lit one of his paintings on fire though. Honestly I don't know why, he seems earnest and isn't bad at painting but the trad/oil painting chads just go for his throat the second he shows his head.
>>7215836Honestly, Anon I have no idea who you are because I haven't been here since 2019 but from just seeing the last few things you just posted I'd say you're really good. I really like your composition and character design. You kind of remind me of Don Bluth in a way.
>>7216289I don't make the rules but 15 updates to the same piece sounds kind of BS Anom
>>7216289I think one or two wips of a piece is fine but dont be someone doing 5 updates per piece
>>7220826Brian? He paints slop.
Spring and Summer badge is the samr. DAD EOS is upon us!
>>7220837>>7220832any examples?
>>7220949>https://dad.gallery/submissions/220385>https://dad.gallery/submissions/231268Nov 10 2023 - Feb 13 2024Just don't do this
>>7216289The rules for the challenge don't specify that it has to be 15 unique pieces. In the spirit of the Coom Week challenges, you'll be fine if you just draw coom for 15 days. Like the other anons mentioned, you probably shouldn't be spending all 15 submissions on one piece though
>>7220832>>7220837>>7221051yeah, I was concerned since I've been working on 1 piece for a long time and want to get it done. I've decided to do rough sketches for unique submissions while I get my main WIP finished. thanks, anons.
The absolute state of coomtards.
>>7221274Could you be more specific?
>>7221294He's retarded. Don't worry about it.
How to give advice/crits without specifically commenting under the submissions.
>>7221744Post it here
>>7221746Posting vague unsolicited crits here is just to creepy imo. I am thinking about setting examples on my submissions but don't want the DADs I want to help think that I pity/one-up them.
i like seeing criticism from the thread
>>7221753>I am thinking about setting examples on my submissions but don't want the DADs I want to help think that I pity/one-up them.What?
>>7221771Basically draw the same things from those DADs' submissions, but with the how to and explanations.
>>7221773Jesus, just reply to their posts lol. What a strangely passive way to offer critique
>>7221776I am shy and a bit of a kuudere. I don't want them to think that I like them or anything.
>>7221755You’re a dumb faggot and you should KKYS
>>7221796my penis stood up when you said that anon....
>>7221796>generic insult>buzz words2/10
>>7221779anon, save yourself time and effort and just write an anonymous crit under their submission. Knowing someone cares enough to check out my work and offer advice is more uplifting than anything else because it shows someone out there cares, but seeing someone unprovoked do my piece better than I did right after I tried my very best on it would be kind of insulting and deflating. If you're worried about when to give crit, I would recommend doing it when someone asks for it or they acknowledge they're really struggling at something. Or, hell, have you tried simply asking if they're open to it before giving it?
>>7221806You are right! Thanks for your input.
Jesus, what the hell is going on on /DAD/? Is like a padded room full of skizos taking each other eyes out.
Jesus, what's with these homies dissing my girl? Why do they gotta front?
Good lord, what is happening in there?
crit people so much that they lock their commentsThen you know you have won

/DAD/ threads have sunk to reddit levels. SAD!
>>7220829Thanks. I’ve always said the three biggest influences on my style were Don Bluth, Glen Keane, and J. Scott Campbell.
>>7221917YOU make a tier list stop waiting around for other people to do what you want to do
Official /dad/ tier list as of 7/5/241. Him2. That dude3. Another guy4. A “woman”5. Bill6. I.C. Weiner7. Ilovedick694208. That other dude9. Megatron10. Pawell
>>7222261No no, you have to use active DADs only
>>7222082>>7222222Take a redditor to spot a reddit comment you stoopid faggot.

Another scene from a dream.Bob cut female assassins, maybe cloned, sent to kill me.
>>7222464Death is often a metaphor for change in dreams.It clearly means you should do more copies and studies of female body to change and improve your art, but you're afraid of meeting those challenges face on, of putting in effort.
>>7222443Wanna know what doesn't need any additional support? ;^)(I'm referring to my penis)(and by not needing support I mean that I'm NOT suffering from erectile dysfunction; it's perfectly healthy) (and by asking if you wanna know I mean you should start flirting with me as well, start a weird long-distance relationship, exchange arousing stories, get to know each other better, book a plane ticket so we would finally meet, get married, have 3 children, 2 dogs, 1 cat and 0 free time, get old together and occasionally piss in my mouth and do nude art studies of each other)(god I'm lonely)
>>7222481>do nude art studies of each otherUnironically one of reasons I'd like to get a girl. I'm not going to ofc, but how nice would it be gosh
>>7222510Eww. They're unclean. There are better ways to do studies of women than to be in close proximity to a real girl.
>>7222512Don't be like that dude. Girls are warm, soft and usually smell good
>>7222515That's how you get cooties but you do you.
>>7221917DAD fuck/marry/kill !!!
>>7222512i agree. feminine male body is superior
>>7222626That's even worse. Only a female dog comes second to a fictional woman.
Fathers really need to stick around and be there for their sons. I'm saying this for no reason in particular.
>>7222671I'm saying this for absolutely no reason in particular, but society needs to take mental health seriously.
Females really should stay virgin until marriage and thus ensure that their husband (and later father of her children) is someone that isn't interested in just sex. White dress used to symbolize purity and we really need to come back to that beautiful tradition. Of course it's reasonable in this scenario that she would only date males that are virgins as well. I'm saying that for the reason of this roastie seething: >>7222671

>>7222754man, if all it took to get women's attention was jingling keys in front of their face, it'd save a lot of time, money, and hassle.
>>7223154Have you tried jingling your penis in front of their face? Your penis DOES jingle, right?
>>7223207no, best I got is a meatspin or a sweaty slap across the face. wait, does everyone's penis here jingle?
>>7223230I'm sorry to hear your doesn't. There's even a carol about it, "jingle balls". Did you skip the penis inspection day in your school?
What does any of this have to do with drawing, everyone in this thread is ngmi
I'm so many light years away from making something I actually like to look at. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
>>7223384ThisDoes this feeling ever go away?
>>7215128I found a bug.I'm in houses. I tried to make a submission, but forgot to chose a file.In this specific scenario dad.gallery tells me to join houses (see screenshot), even though I've already done that, so this is a bug.It's not a big deal at all so no pressure. I just assume you guys would like to be aware of even those almost meaningless bugs.
>>7223489This is one of the pictures I clicked on to look closely at. I think it has appeal so you're on the right path.
life is eternal
death is temporal
>>7223384>>7223489I've felt the same way and as feedback, others have said that it's not something that completely goes away. There's always going to be something you think you can improve with each piece. You use that feeling to figure out what area you want to study next, not beat yourself up for not reaching unrealistic or too high of expectations. I think it's a matter of loving your work for what it is at your skill level and changing your perspective for the bigger picture.
