The eye size was fine although I like them smaller like this. It was the proportion of the iris to the sclera that was bothering me. The irises were too big like he was possessed or something and his eyes were about to turn all black.

no you don't understand our board-tan is already established and has a whole fuckload more personality, and reflects the attitudes of the board.

>>2771022
What, some buff normie drawn by someone who is obviously a fan of /fit/ and trying to forcibly inject their hobbies on everyone here? 1 in 10 people on this board are probably fit, if that. Probably the same amount of us are outgoing. He doesn't represent us in any way shape or form. May as well make something cuter and more relate able.

>1 in 10 people on this board are probably fit, if that.

It's an anonymous fucking website, Harry.

No board tans fit the physical description of any user because that's not what the point is. /ic/-tan reflects on the behaviorisms of anons on this board, not their physicality or actual personality.

The stereotype is that anons wont sugarcoat shit for you here, they'll tell you things as bluntly as possible. "It's shit". Anons here can seem hostile or angry because of that.

For that reason our /ic/-tan is a fat, messy, angry, abusive alcoholic who is never satisfied with what you do and will shittalk you and tell things straight. He doesn't sugarcoat shit

He does have some muscle structure burried under a belly full of beer, but that's just to add to the intimidation factor. Imagine a gay looking like this being your art teacher/tutor. Fuck that.


Please go on and tell me how on fucking earth does a cute girl represent this board the best? How the fuck is a cute lil girl "relatable" to the general atmosphere of this board?

Fuck off if you can't see how blatantly stupid you are being right now with your qt shit. /ic/ is supposed to be the most creative board on the site, at least try to break the mold instead of falling to the same fucking qt anime girl trope.

I wasn't even gonna mention that our board tan has been around for years now, but fuck it. Goddamn newfags trying to stir shit up.

>>2771043
so you base the entire board representative off a few asshole trolls? sounds like a great idea.

never too late to can a shitty idea though, so it doesn't matter how old that shit is.

>>2771048
>so you base the entire board representative off a few asshole trolls? sounds like a great idea.

Oh fuck off with that,it's a caricature. How artistically illiterate can you be?

Of course that's not what the whole board is like, but comparing this board to many other corners of the art-web, I'd say /ic/ is far more blunt than it's competitors.

Therefore exaggerating that distinct, supposedly "asshole-ish" feature is far more interesting than doing some middle of the road bullshit with barely any personality.

It's basic characterization. There's only so much you CAN do in terms of personality when it comes to board tans, so exaggerating traits is highly encouraged.

Why does our d/ic/k-tan bother you do much? It's easily one of the best board tans
The only other good ones are
/b/ (classic faceless green man in a suit)
/v/ (simple angry character with no distinct features),
/i/ (an innocent little girl whose design really shines when contrasted with /ic/'s)
/fit/ (mainly thanks to SiR's comics)

All rest is shit.

>>2770750
This should be it

I agree that /ic/'s character is the best one.

He seems like he would be kinda like Rick from Rick and Morty, but into art instead of science. And angrier.

>>2771076
/v/ and /b/ definitely wrong in this.

>>2771078

/ic/tan isn't even buff, it is just that one specific picture that he is. Most of the depictions of him are of an overweight and unhealthy slob, who resents everyone. Like most of /ic/.

Even his fucking genderbent version is a fucking mess.

Take your cute shit and fuck off.

>>2771082
I think /v/ is good because it's a good simple insert for reaction images and comics etc

>>2771076
I agree, esp. in terms of design. None of those characters stand out at all cause they all look so similar except for the fat /ic/ bastard and maybe the /co/ guy.

>>2771669
so you are saying you resonate more with a cute loli than a adult male? stop posting and go see a shrink

>>2771803
That is the artist's fault, though - these drawings are SHIT and have no personality. All colors and body poses look the same.

>>2771828
Really? I think they are pretty well done. I guarantee your comic art is total shit though.

>>2771829
Feel free to be personally offended by it, I'm just pointing out how the artist was unable to give the characters distinctive traits.
Maybe she should learn how to vary faces and hairstyles for starters.

Body language comes next.

There are way to many loli-tans out there already, we don't need more.
