In my time on this board I haven't seen any effort to organize a group class. If there are enough people in an area, I think organizing an IRL meetup to practice things that require unabashed feedback like Bargue Plates would be interesting. Art classes at regular schools are fucking expensive for what they are (women drawing pretty pictures and talking) and finding serious people makes it even pricier, sometimes around 400 dollars.Is anyone else down with the idea?
>>7884291>begs teach other begs, the story lmao
>>7884291>Teaching for freeI aint no jannie
there could be value in a life drawing meeting where we all get naked and draw each other
>"CopyIt" appbruh>>788431790% of the participants will be nodraws who cry and screech about being too old and not having talentthe rest will cry about the models being too old
>>7884291I think this board is dead anyways. I don't know what's going on.
>>7884467/beg/ alone has hundreds of posts along with other generals posting art aside from /dad/ and /lsg/ being chat rooms. How fast do you want a hobby board to be? Like /v/?
>>7884467Really didn't expect captchas to filter this hard
>>7884471>hobbyh..hobby?
>>7884475Sorry, h*bby
>>7884475Mfs here treat it like a hobby when it’s the sole thing that has any meaning in my life and i give it everything i have lol. This is why i don’t feel bad for begs and low tier ints.
>>7884475I’m sorry, I forgot some of us treat this as being trapped in Aincrad and the only way out is clearing all 100 floors.
>>7884471How hard is to draw something? Anything at all? /beg/ can last hours and hours maybe a whole day without new replies. And that's the "most active" general. Yes, it is, a dead board.
>>7884317Bleh, the smell would be vile, and likely linger around the street for weeks... and for what? The opportunity to draw naked hunchbacked, pimpled, pale, losers? I can do that by looking in the mirror. No thank you.
>>7884495Hello. You must be in a parallel universe. How is it in your realm?
>>7884497>Ackshually, /ic/ is one of the most active and vibrant boards in this site>You must be in a parallel universe. How is it in your realm?
>>7884499>post covid tourist
People find it so much easier to say "can't do it for [blah blah blah]" instead of "That sounds fun. Where are you localted?"Pussies.(SoCal btw)
>>7884505A meet up of anything can only realistically work if your Californian.
>>7884471>/ic/ definitely used to be faster. /beg/ and maybe the occasional e-celeb drama are the only consistently active threads on this Gods forsaken board.
>>7884513There was no /salt/,/asg/, /dad/,OC redraw,/FYI/,/FIG/, animation general, /fag/,/cbsg/, and /cgsg/ back then. It was all consolidated to just 3 hubs pre 2016. The real problem isn't the generals it's the art community on the internet as a whole died. There are no interesting meta threads, no industry podcasts from the people at the top, no big youtubers hosting livestreams together for the community--none of that happens anymore. The biggest drama we get now is Pewpie did the thing.Everyone is in their own bubble with their own community.
>>7884291>If there are enough people in an areaThis seems unlikely. /ic/ is a slow-moving international board, probably one of your worst options for organizing local meetups. That's better suited to town facebook pages or the like. If I wanted to start something like this, I'd advertise at my library and probably the local senior center.Still, if this were near me (and at a time I was free), I'd show up.
>>7884291>>7884532>>78845094chan is not a place to arrange irl meetings, you dumbfucks. What are you? fucking insane? The main function of this site is anonymity. That's the whole reason to be in this place. you come here already knowing that you will not, ever, ever, EVER want to get in contact with ANYONE here.
>>7884516Pre 2020s /ic/ was at its peak. You had literal industry professionals giving out critiques and anons who were nobodies suddenly popping off and actually making it on Twitter and Patreon left and right. Post covid and ai slop killed this board. We're lucky if anyone who is actually /int/ posts or gives out critiques, or threads that aren't bitching/shilling ai or talking about some retarded e-celeb faggot they can lolcow along with their permabeg nodraw buttbuddies.
>>7884535I met my wife on /b/ in 2006.
>>7884551I wonder how that went...
>>7884535ive met up with several people i met on 4chan but i dont like your attitude so i won't be meeting up with you pal
>>7884555>i won't be meeting up with you palGOOD.
If /pol/ can have a civil meetup with a more diverse race of humans than an HR department, I think /ic/'s meetup will be just fine.People seem to forget anons are just regular people, maybe more autistic than the average normie.
>>7884568What a bunch of retards. They fell for it. jfc
>>7884571Yeah, but they're OUR retards.
>>7884568Why a gallon of milk
>>7884577Around the time when this happened, 4chan was trying to make milk a white supremacist symbol, lactose tolerance is very common in whites but less common in other races.
>>7884571yeah can't believe they fell for going out and having a good time instead of only interacting online. its probably some kind of government honeypot when people leave the house and meet people irl. dangerous out there best to stay in.
>>7884568I wonder what was in the sketchbook
