FAQ:
Something's broken, what do I do?

>The site is currently in the alpha phase of development and is being built around us as we compete so sometimes things go wrong. If you ever need any help send me a tweet @LavaFlake or shoot me an email [email protected].

What do we draw?

>Whatever you want. At this point there's no required topic so draw your heart out. Make sure you submit at least a half hour of work or you may get a low effort warning.

What's a low effort warning?

>The goal is to get people to draw every day by turning it into a competition. The low effort warning system is to prevent people from posting last minute, quick sketches when they're feeling lazy. If you receive a warning and it happens again within a month you'll be eliminated.

>This rule has been the cause of a lot of concern amongst newer artists so let me reiterate: this system is to police low effort content and has nothing to do with the quality of the work. New artists are more than welcome.

What happens if I'm eliminated?

>A new Last Artist Standing challenge starts every week. If you get eliminated then get it together and rejoin next week.

How can there be a new Last Artist Standing challenge every week?

>This is a way to let new artists join in and to allow re-entry for the eliminated. Every week a new challenge is started. If you joined on week 1 and make it to week 2 then your daily submission counts for both the first and second Last Artist Standing. If you get eliminated then you're eliminated from both challenges and you'll be able to rejoin next week.

Will I have an advantage if I join later in the week?

>The winner of a Last Artist Standing will be the artist with the longest streak. If you join on day 1 and last until day 85 then you'll have a streak of 85. If there's only one person left in the challenge when you're eliminated but they joined on Day 7 then they'll need to continue on for another week. If they're eliminated before then, you win.

this link directs you to see the past submissions of artist without being part of the challenge. sort of like a "passive viewer mode" empty apartment with broken dreams
>http://lavaflake.com/draw/active.php

I see we all seem to be enjoying the tribunal? thats always fun haha. remember you need to view the submission before actually being able to vote!

you're doing a great job anons! I believe in your progress.

He's too good for finished work
Only capitalist sellouts make art for the purpose of selling it
That's all that "finished" art is

>>2443408
lol not sure if serious
if yes, proceed by killing yourself

>>2443402
I have also wondered this. Perhaps he only sells them though local shows so he doesn't devalue his hart by spreading it around online, but who knows. He's an amazing draftsman though.

I haven't used my tablet in 2 years, I mostly do traditional.

>>2443789
this is a pretty funny joke. keep the laughs coming, anon

Illustrator or any vector program, really.

They're less about the gesture of drawing but rather pulling and manipulating curves and shapes to draw.

Drawing with a mouse in a raster-based software is fundamentally retarded, and a massive waste of time.

>>2451055
Thanks

Pencil and Paper 2016 is really fits mouse users.

I don't like it either. It's easier to feel like it doesn't look right when it's a face you're really familiar with, and I'm in the same boat as you about the attention thing.
I drew a picture of our family dog for my mother and she framed it and shows people. I'm flattered, but it's also not a very good drawing so it's a bit embarrassing.

>It's not that I'm not confident enough to do it just I'm worried it will insult it in some way. Or the opposite, even if it does turn out fine, in the case of family, they gush over it and make it a big thing among relatives which brings awkward attention.
This is exactly how I feel.

>>2450075
This is why I have some cute, generic style to fall back on when someone insists I draw them. If it's generic enough it'll look cute and they'll think i's flattering. Everyone's always been overjoyed using this.

I wanna draw MILFs.

What is the physical difference between any 20-something woman you see in porn and a MILF?

You know I never got any real feedback on this thanks to the shit purging, so I'm curious is this pure shit.

Older ladies tend to be overall less firm, and not just in the breasts, which tend to get droopier and flattened. A lot of it is in the face as well, more wrinkles, more defined face lines, etc.

Buy L size
That's all.

Buy a big intuos. You're not gonna find anything better. Overpriced yes but it's the best quality in every way count famula.

I heard the Huion Giano might be good, it's very new though so wait for more reviews to pop up. It's massive and dwarfs all other tablets in its price range so it has that going for it.

you don't

>anime
Just give up.

>>2451130
show them good anime draws with good value statement that will inspire them.

Neat.
Use the drawthread like everyone else.

gay

Cool zergling / roach

At the moment, 2 out of 10. Is this even finished? Why ask for a rating of something unfinished? Also why make an entirely new thread for yourself instead of posting in a drawing thread? Are you new here?

yes, I am.

Piper at the Gates of Dawn is better

i was in the same year and sam school with him, hes very talentet imho

did stuff for space dandy and one punch man

>>2449706
Yeah, so I read. I find it very inspiring.

I'd like to see his learning process. I read he did a lot of sakuga studies and such.

>>2449642
Looks like his animation is inspired by that one short in the Animatrix. Yo know which one I'm talking about.

Coloring practice.
Still not even close to natural shade. But trying.

My question is : If I use overlay, multiply, screen... etc, to alter colors more easily, will it slow down my learning speed?
I've heard somewhere that restricting brush opacity to 100% will help understand color more faster. is it true?

>>2450724
not OP, but I'd love to see the chess book illustrations as well. As well as any inspiring works, the other inspiration thread is, alright, it has some samurai's and stuff.
