We don't have that many -quality- drawfags, and the ones we do have are few in number.
The thing about this decision isn't just how we make it, but how other boards end up drawing it when we get included in shit.
A good example is /v/ in pic related. Most people know the white ball headed guy, but there was a time where people were drawing this because /v/ didn't say much about it.

So you've literally been here less than a week. Who would've guessed.

>>37110204
Is /a/ a boy or girl? And if /a/ is a trap, why isn't it a cuter trap?

The only tans that we actually made on /n/ /new/ and /pol/ were the ones that resemble the news guy. He started with a green suit/hat and sandwich board but eventually lost those and gained a black suit and slicked hair when /new/ became /pol/. Those versions are truest to our limited board OC. At some point, another board introduced the unshaven kid. It may look kind of similar, but what makes it different from anything we actually produced is the neckbeard. This has gotten muddled and confused over the years, with the neckbeard being added to tans that resemble /new/sguy, etc. Bottom line: lose the unshaven look, clean up the hair, think less anime kid and you've got what was once /pol/-made OC rather than the /v/ version.

The nature of bitching about political topics means we don't have tons of drawn OC. Although we are pretty decent at shopping Ben Garrison.

>>37110262
Not to mention /co/ also looks more or less like the /new/sman but with a mask and a longer jacket.

>>37110262
>black suits can only be worn by one person ever.
>all black suits are alike

We can't use /new/sman either because he wears a fedora which looks like /co/, and has a suit, like /b/. He needs to wear some totally new clothes or he's not original

>>37110293
>Although we are pretty decent at shopping Ben Garrison

Can we please at least get rid of the sloppy hair and neckbeard? The basic character is fine, but the unshaven tan looks way too fedora. Keep the base features, just clean him up, age him a bit, and replace the vest and fedora with a black suit. Less brony meetup guy more Gestapo wannabe.

There should be an avatar for old /pol/, which is virtually gone, and current /pol/, which would be whatever shit meme you guys choose for yourselves.

This used to be my home board, I was here for its creation.... But it changed over time. Became a shithole basically. We fought the communists, the stormfags (who also helped found it, can't deny it), then the JIDF scare came along, soon after SRS came as well. Then as things started to go completely to shit we didn't really have a single enemy. I remember when we were united against zionism. But this place is lost. Too much newfaggotry, cancer, and disinfo.

The only thing that I'm proud of about this board is that freedom of speech is still the thing.

have hope for the future guys.

I vote for this one! Keep him like he is. The tan suit sounds ok, but the Gestapo black suit is better imo.

I like the way this thread is going. We're more organized here about our image then about the winter ball.
So far it seems that the edgy black suit is winning. A modified version of the one /co/ made with a older looking, broader shouldered, shaven and 50's gentleman type of look.
When the draw guy finally delivers tomorrow (hopefully( we should take it to /co/ to make our official declaration of our image as a board-tan.

It's based on the fucking gestapo uniform you chucklefuck. Get over yourself

Ok, this is going to sound autistic (and it is) but seeing that edgy black suit is the clear winner, we need a new poll to vote on the details (unshaven vs clean shaven etc) because from the looks of it, people think the neckbeard ruins the black edgy suit guy (I agree - way too fedora) and much prefer the cleaned up version

No, it just screams Nazified /b/. Unless he's got the trousers and buttoned jacket, the whole Gestapo connection won't be found except among the people in these threads. A tan suit and a pipe along with an armband differentiates us from everyone else enough to be uniquely /pol/.

But sure, keep on believing a black suit and tan shirt will make everyone who sees our mascot think "OH WOW, GESTAPO XD"

Am i the only one who think mascots are cringe worthy and make us look like 9fag kids?

A lot of the board-tan's work (and are accepted) because they're not afraid to run with the perceptions that other boards have of them.

/pol/ saying that their personification is a good looking, clean-cut man in a suit reeks of wish-fulfillment.

>>37111874
When one gets made, a new image will be made, right?
Because it'd just look ridiculous if we say "Here's our tan" and it's just a recolor of something else.

>. He started with a green suit/hat and sandwich board

that history is inaccurate and you're a huge faggot to say that /new/ was originally green suit. i will however, agree that green suit is /pol/'s version of their tan because green suit started on /pol/. /new/-tan is a bit controversial because it never started on 4chan's /new/ either. in fact it was created about a month after the board got deleted, as you can check on the 4chanhouse /char/ page and compare it to the day that /r9k/ and /new/ got deleted.

but the black haired character was mentioned on the site where all the /new/ and /r9k/ users wandered off to. the chon site had a /meta/ board and in the beginning there was a bit of discussion with board history. there were /n/ users there that pretty much explained origins of the board users.

>>37111993
>I dunno man. It's just obviously made to appeal to /pol//a/cks

I don't go to /a/ so the appeal is lost on me I'm afraid.

The one in the lead certainly is.

but -tans are an ancient and hallowed tradition, going all the way back to the early parts of the 3rd millennium.

>>37112030
This guy gets it.

Go with the clean shaven tan, black or tan suit, swastika armband, pipe or cigar.

We can add character to the tan without giving him a fedora goatee.

>>37111927
why not a full beard instead, that'll separate us from every board

Its about the reference. Plus they're also popular in the images of Hunter S. Thompson, Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver, and Bill Kilgore from Apocalypse Now - which all help consolidate our board's image via Hunter's approach to journalism or the disjointed nature of Kilgore and Bickle..

It looks good, but the sweater vest does not really look... /pol/. Also it needs a 4chan clover somewhere or a /pol/ mark. This signifies it's a board-tan.

And that is part of the joke that I don't want to lose with the whole clean cut Adonis look. We all have to admit we are a bit of a odd and frazzled bunch. I mean look at us we are up at 3 am either talking about the happening (which is always) or about a cartoon going to a fictional Halloween party. If we go clean cut we seem like we can't even poke fun at ourselves.

Also we have such a rep with this persona from GG, Ebolachan, random OC, and our /new/ ancestry why not embrace him.

If anything we should at least keep the red hate filled eyes. You gotta admit hatred is pretty personified on /pol/. And in almost all the art his eyes express it the most. I mean this in the most endearing way.

See this is where I disagree with you. >>37112207 is a great image but even adding the unkempt faults (love the dark circles idea btw) he still is more glorified as what WE think of ourselves over what others see us as. That is why I feel that >>37109566 needs to be the status quo. It really is a great personification on how the world views us.

Like we have to be honest with ourselves. Everyone. EVERYONE thinks we are nazis and glorify Hitler. And yeah we kind of do.

Everyone thinks we flood other boards with our shit and annoy them with or spin on things, happening alerts, and hate posting. And yeah we kind of do.

Everyone thinks we are uncompromising about things we are passionate about and never back down. Even when others view it as hateful or wrong. Fuck. Yes. We. Do.

This character has faults. But they are endearing faults. You never draw your wrinkles on your self portrait. But those wrinkles are what makes you who you are. They define the face. And it's our face and we should learn to like it. And even with all these faults that other boards see in him... he will still always be right in the end and he knows it.

I hope this didn't sound as after school special as I am hearing it in my head.

/co/'s just stems from a process of design.
From the ordinary green anon, to a blue anon with a red mask, to blue anon with a red mask and suit, to pic related.
It's not that it's self fulfillment, but that they just made connections through designs that seemed like fun to draw.

I like the ideas is this thread. Some new ones have been created and some old ones confirmed. I feel like what will eventually emerge in OC will be the closest we can get to consensus, some kind of aggregation of the new and old ideas. Somewhere in between newsguy the edgy suit guy and the newer, slightly cleaner but still disheveled guy. Something of other boards' perspectives but also taking himself too seriously. And perhaps the fact that the tan will never quite have the exact same haircut or clothes will be a fitting reflection on our constant disagreement.

No I think was like a mix of the scruffy looking guy and the /news/-man.
Maybe I'm just imagining things.

I disagree. I can give you counter points to each but let's just take /co/ who is a great example and flesh some things out. /co/ started out a Mary Sue, who was super cool, debonair, handsome, ect. But that was again a self portrait. They are the board with the most drawfriends. And now look at modern /co/ now that the character has actually been fleshed out. Most drawfriends depict him a quite down and out, tired of tumbler shit >>37113464, secretly furry (related), nostalgic for what once was and never will be again, and most importantly with all these evens now blending together and making /co/ a generally upset board they now openly admit it is no longer "love."

>>37113465
It is 4am and I am tried. I don't follow. You want a little girl pol? How about a chibi one instead? 4chan house has a good amount of that.

It was a joke.I prefer the one that you mentioned.

That would mean we could ask out the male board tans!
And use #notyourshield!
And finally be able to freak out /lgbt/ instead of the other way around!

>>37113282
This one looks great. This looks much better than the others that include fedora and more brony goatee instead of stubble. >>37113294

>>37113295
I disagree. I feel like the buttoned vest look is too similar to /new/. The sweater vest should stay, and should stay red. It's in the same cultural vein as /new/'s buttoned vest, but is also fresh and distinctly /pol/'s idea. The whole 50's conception of our tan represents /pol/ perfectly: young but aged-looking, and glorifying the good old days with his outfit. He just needs more vitriol and less grooming at this point.

>>37113841
>fedora and more brony goatee
I feel like you're just spouting buzzwords without knowing what they mean.

>>37113896
He knows they're negative, that's all his tiny mind can process.

someone needs to make an edit of this

>>37113854
*the sweater vest staying red is just a personal style choice, no other reason.

>>37113854
That would improve that character.

Sweater vest should be two tone though

I don't get the appeal of sweater vest.
They never seem to look good in 2D, or in real life.

>>37113923
True, maybe like the argyle red and blue mentioned above. That'd drive the 50's part home.

Ah. Sorry. I have trouble with text sarcasm.

Eh the goatee works well with the stubble, just not on its own.

Oh hey, the thread survived. Anywho, disheveled sweater version.

Regardless of how I feel about the clothes, I have to admit the face does feel more like /pol/ than the more put together guy.

>>37113993

OKAY NOW WE'RE JUST BEING RETARDED.

>>37113828
/lgbtbbq/ would just become a grill then

>>37113993
Sick threads yo.

But seriously, good job. Though it looks like he has a yarmulke on his head kek

Just widen the shoulders and make him angrier, and it'll be done and done.

>>37113769
>down and out
Like an anti-hero?
>tired of tumbler shit
That's a good thing.
>secretly furry
That doesn't come across in his visual depiction. You can give /pol/ some background too but right now we're talking about his physical appearance.
>nostalgic for what once was and never will be again
Totally normal. Most people get like this. We don't need to visually castrate ourselves to prove it.
>it is no longer "love."
So it is just like every other board on 4chan? The horror.

/co/ still gets to be an athletic superhero while we would be stuck as disgruntled NEETS. The father-like guy in the sweatervest is perfect because it's not wish fulfillment and he does have his flaws (boring, "conservative") but he also looks clean and non-degenerate.

Hmmmmmm starting to look familiar. Are you the artist or just an editor? If so I really like your style. I could see this as future /pol/ after he got a wife and a few kids.

>Ebolachan: Papa! Papa! Teacher says that we are to learn about how the black slaves basically built america and are the cornerstone of society!

>/pol/: Hmmm.... *puffs on pipe* That's might degenerate honey. Looks like it's private school for you.

>EC: I love you papa!

>/pol/: I love you too sweetie.

They would never do that, they're manly bara men.

for comparison

>>37113993
Not sure whether I like the Red or the Argyle better, but I definitely like the face.

Seems to me that >>37113720 has the right idea though. With the face being that similar, I see this more as an outfit redesign than as a character redesign.

>>37114080
/co/ claims to be a superhero, but so far as anyone can tell, he never does any actual heroing. He runs a comic book shop, and likes to play dress up.

/pol/tan is a jew

>>37113993
I like the sweater and the 4clover armband. (wish is was purple) And the pipe and quote too.

Less so the hair

The stubble doesn't work at all, but that might just be your style

>/pol/ tan dressing up to appease tumblr

i like where this thread is going.

>>37114123
Personally prefer far right.
All that red just doesn't look right, to me. Even the Nazi flag has a better color balance.

>>37114123
I prefer the red one by a lot.

>>37114140
We're all Jews here, friend.

>>37114123
Definitely red.

>>37114151
>daddy /pol/ tan dressing up to spank tumblr
Fixed.

You just know 90% of those special snowflakes weren't spanked enough, and the other 10% were spanked too much.

>>37114189
At least 50% of them actively seek out spanking.

>>37114123
>>37113993
Anon, if you get time, might I make a simple request?

Take the Brownshirt here: >>37112877
Then do quick mock up with comb-over and aviators like stated here: >>37111636
If he's got to be scraggly too, that's fine.
Preferably a cigar instead of pipe but pipe is fine too.

>>37114068
Thank's, I'm just glad to contribute to the board.

>looks like he has a yarmulke on his head kek
Fuck now I can't unsee that.

>>37114102
I am indeed, I'm just getting lazy... 4am here. It seems like a lot of people have headed off to bed anyways, so I'll probably do the same in just a few minutes as soon as I get a general feel about which ideas to trash and which to continue with for tomorrow.

>>37114123
His fit is too good, and if we're gonna make him disheveled, his clothes can't fit too well. Make his vest longer (like down to his crotch) and make it fit a lot looser, and let his sleeves down, but don't button his cuffs so that they stay loose as well.
