I remember when I was a girl in Ireland there was a girl who lived in our village, such a bonny girl, much admired, and she took to touching herself. First she went pale, then she got dark circles under eyes, and people began to wonder, and then she went thin, and people began to suspect, and then she became a hopeless imbecile, because the jelly of her brain was melted by what she did to herself and flowed away, and then people knew for certain. Now she has to be handcuffed for 24 hours a day.

I'm working on the beginning stages of a VN right now. Originally the idea was a novel, but as I was combing through my rough draft I realized the content was much better suited for a VN.

So now I've got pages and pages of bubble trees trying to figure out how to plan the individual routes around two large events. I've been trying to work out the character sketches, but I have realized I have no fashion sense what-so-ever. (Pic would be example of this. I realize they have no hands or faces, I'm getting to it. Eventually.)

Meanwhile I'm wondering if anyone even cares about Origonal English Language Visual Novels that don't center around romance.

At this point in time learning Renpy is the easy part.

I'd say if it sounds interesting people will be interested in it, and then (down the road) if it's well known to be a solid, good VN, people will probably at least look into it despite it being english.

I.e. If it's interesting, well drawn, and well written, you should be fine.

>>6759016

When you do that you are really cheating yourself, in terms of practice. Also, try drawing the whole figure, hands feet and all, instead of just drawing the bust.

Redlining just a face can be kind of tough given that so much can be passed off as stylistic choice or personal preference so long as things line up and are symmetric (unless you are trying to go for photorealism).

Here's a quick redline, I exaggerated the bit on the side in order to be more clear. I also avoided messing around with the face for previously mentioned reasons.

Me again. I just finished the part where they both have sex for the first time. There really isn't an ending written in yet. I also haven't went back and reread anything to see if it makes perfect sense. In the future I may add a few more encounters which end with the main character killing himself after realizing that no one will accept his love with a little girl who's constantly knocking on his window or near his house outside, always watching him, but for now it is what it is, especially since my back hurts from laying here so long.

It's 3,000 words so it'd be a hassle to post it here, especially with the text limit. I'll include a link at the bottom of this post if you'd like to download it, it's a .rtf file.

started work on a VN engine in c++ since i didn't like renpy. i've been thinking back to all the features of the fancier engines like fate/stay night's and figuring out how to implement them. once im done with the backend im making a frontend in visual c# using an idea i had where you could treat whole sections of the script as an object and move it around and link it to other sections and get a visual representation of the entire VN script in tree format.

Drawing, especially learning the technicalities of drawing, is super easy cause all it takes is practice. Just head over to /s/, find some pictures with good lights/darks (keep it classy), and draw away. Draw the same picture over and over again until you understand what makes it look correct and what doesn't, and you are happy with the outcome. Then move on to another picture and repeat.

Eventually you'll begin to break images down into basic shapes in order to draw faster, you'll figure out the basics of composition, of perspective, of line, you'll notice the relationship between lights and darks.

After a while your hand-eye coordination (which is about 70% of drawing "skill") will improve, along with your hand's muscle memory, and your strokes will be made more broad, confident. Your hand will move where you want it to.

Then, you will realize the remaining 30% of technical artistic skill comes from understanding your subject. Why does a human look the way he does, what does his skeleton look like, his musculature, etc.

Compared to something like writing, which for some reason everyone fancies as easy and a personal skill, which requires quite a bit of introspection (and innate talent) to develop drawing is a much simpler, brute force type of skill.

Find a drawing program that lets you push lines around and dick around with poses; don't worry that they'll look ridiculous and cartoony until you start to learn how to play on viewer perspective to achieve the proportions you want.

Why not use unlined paper, it would instantly make things look a bit nicer and it shows that you take what you're doing seriously.

I'm also guessing you are pretty young, as you've mentioned the whole "drawing since kindergarten" thing. What's important isn't how long you've been drawing but your level of dedication during that time.

Post something larger and on non-lined paper using a reference (to guide, not copy). Also be more ambitious with your pose and hide nothing. Things will be easier to critique then, as it is this is the best I can do.

It was a quiet evening in Mayohiga when Yukari, the gap Youkai, returned from another venture in to the outside world. She hoisted a small, rectangular box on to the bamboo floor of the household. Ran and Chen, her shikigamis gathered around, perplexed by the new device.

“So, whats this do? It’s not another back massager is it?” Ran, the motherly Shikigami asked. Chen reached up and hit on of the large, square buttons on the front. The cassette inside began to spin and the large circular plates began to blast sound

“A fresh El Camino rollin kilo G, he rolled down his window and he started to say, its all about makin that G.T.A.” A light voiced man vocalized.

“Wh...what is he saying?” Ran asked once more, even more confused after knowing the devices use.

“Isn’t it clear?” Yukari pushed the stop button. “It’s a device used to scare off wild animals, with sounds of vicious and fearsome predators.” The device started back up.

“Cause the boys in the hood are always hard, you come talkin’ that trash, we'll pull ya card” The same man echoed through the room. Chens finger pulled away from the play button, enjoying the drum beats accompanying the voice.

“Actually, I think it’s supposed to be music” Chen suggested. Yukari and Ran made no attempt to stifle their laughter, which was boisterous and louder than the still playing ‘music’.

[All day !jCOMomijIM No.]

>>6763284
“Please, music?” Yukari managed past the laughter “Of all things, music?

“I kinda like it!” Chen rebutted, annoyed.

“Fine, if you like it, heres what I found with it.” Yukari pulled a small pamphlet and a case from the purple gap she was sitting in. “The man I found it on also had this pack with him.” She pulled a heavy, ragged backpack from the gap, it’s foul scent assaulting the room. Chen clasped around Yukari’s voluptuous chest.

“Thanks Yukari-sama!” Her voice muffled with Yukari’s invasive rack. Ran flipped through the pamphlet, attempting to make sense of the words.

“I don’t know Yukari, it seems like a lot of gibberish, and what isn’t gibberish is inappropriate” Ran protested “This doesn’t seem exactly the best thing for her to listen to”

“Don’t worry Ran” Yukari reassured her “It’s just a phase she’ll grow out of in no time, you had your own if you recall.” Ran’s tails stood up in shock, recalling the days she listened to ‘Punk’ music, and considered herself ‘hardcore’.

“Y-yes, a phase, I understand” Ran slumped in embarrassment at the memories. Chen turned on the tape once more to hear the strident-voiced man, singing of criminal intent and violence.

[All day !jCOMomijIM No.]

>>6763293
A week passed since Chen discovered this new form of music. Like Ran’s punk rock phase, her clothes and appearance changed drastically. Her red dress turned in to a red hoodie, accompanied by loose pants. Her walk had also been changed to a stride of laze accompanied by odd hand signs. Her vernacular had shifted from a sweet little girl’s to that of the musicians she was emulating. Yukari had done little good that week to stem Chen’s behavior, giving her more cassettes and more information on the culture she was so determined to integrate in to. One movie she had studied in depth was Wild Style, leading her study in the hip-hop world. Combined with NWA and Run DMC, she spread her new-found culture to other residents of Gensokyo. Cirno, Mystia, Daiyousei, and Wriggle Nightbug joined with Chen in her Eazy-E inspired escapades, forming ‘Team 9mm’, also known as ‘blackaquartert’ each member chosen by a marking on the lower calf, resembling a spider or insect bite. The phase Chen had entered showed no signs of ending as abruptly as Ran’s, and with a group to revel in the sounds of Compton only bolstered her steadfast resolve in her ‘music.’

while this is in part true, a lot of the reason for bad OC threads lately has been due to an influx in certain anons trying to derail the threads simply because they don't think it belongs on /jp/

>>6758944
i think a part of the reason for lack of older drawfags is simply the attitudes of each board. drawfags are much more common on boards like /co/ or /tg/, which could be due to size but also the general attitude towards such threads being more positive. /a/ itself has been struggling with the threads having too many or too difficult requests being asked for, and general circlejerking.

>I've been tempted for a few days now to look up the kind of owl that has ears (or tufts of fur that resemble them, I can't remember which), because I think the personality for an owl girl would be hillarious.
Lots of owls have ear-tufts! One of the ones I find particularly cute is Blakiston's fish owl (bubo blakistoni - one of the largest species of owl). The long-eared owl (asio otus) is less fluffy, and has tufts that look much more like ears. The striped owl (asio clamator) is also pretty cute, and some of the scops owls (i.e. otus bakkamoena, otus lettia) are too.

I've actually been working (idly) on a set of bird-inspired girls in the past couple of months... but I don't even have a remotely coherent sketch of the owls, so have some tits instead.

I'm well aware. I was going to say something about that, but I figured it has been stated a thousand times already so I decided against it.

I was mostly just curious if there were any outliers with plans/currently doing something. I can only imagine that it sucks having manga-style art as a talent, because there is no market for it here, the normal artists/people hate you for "copying the Japanese," and most Westerners who like the style are inclined to stick to Japanese work.

One of the reasons why I'm trying to adapt the Western art style. The only thing I'm decent at is drawing, and art schools don't accept this style.
While I'm still not good with it, I learned a lot that helps improving my manga-style as well, anatomy and perspective and all that stuffs.
I do banners & design work for my school and small online projects, but nothing that generate income.

Good luck, I suppose. If you prefer drawing manga-style art I feel sorry for you, though, as I don't see it ever being viable outside of generating extra income as a hobby, and otherwise you'll be stuck drawing stuff you don't really like.

With the total lack of possible repercussions from pirating the Japanese manga industry and considering the industry's productivity, there's no way a manga-style industry could go anywhere outside of Japan. I imagine most people on /jp/ have enough content to satisfy them for years that they haven't even touched yet.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6764913

Not the anon you're replying to, but after reading your post I felt the need to respond with some advice.

I graduated from a design school just last year, have been drawing anime-styled artwork for some years now (I participated in many earlier drawthreads on /jp/ but haven't done so recently due to time issues)

Much like yourself, I have been studying from life much more over the recent weeks, and it has helped me considerably with all forms of artwork. I cannot stress how important it is to draw from life before you stylize, it's something /ic/ or CA will tell you every time.

Now that I have graduated from my studies, I feel it somewhat necessary to tell you a few things.

If you do plan on going forward with art as a serious profession, you will need to give up drawing anime-style, at least for a few years while you are learning. Once you have a good foundation, you can stylize however much you see fit, but until then, stick to studying.

As for anything design related, take on small projects, and really invest the time and effort required to make them good. This is not so much to get an amazing result, but rather, the harder you try, the more you will learn. Experiment and try new things, and that way when you need to build a portfolio you will have the skills to do so.

[Anonymous No.]

If you want to produce something more than individual drawings you people should probably get into indie game development. And I'm not talking just visual novels either, just games with animu-ish artwork. Or even just character art, or whatever. I make games myself, but I can't draw and my friend (who's the graphic artist for your stuff) can't really do anime-styled art, so projects just by us will probably never have animuish stuff, but honestly speaking, at least I'd want to do a game with cute girls in it, or at least animu-ish art in general.

[Anonymous No.]

Most horned owls also have impressive tufts, hence their name. Southern white-faced owl is another notable owl (also with ear tufts), because, well, it has to be watched for best effect.

For the record, third place is lyrebird, second place is superb bird-of-paradise. The best "show unusual animals to Japanese audience and watch their responses" show ought to be the one with the deep sea siphonophore (I think it's a Physophora species, but I could be wrong), though.

>Why the hell would a publisher want a "manga-style" something anyway?
It's "hip" and "what's in nowadays", ergo "it sells better"? I don't know. but I feel it looks like just every manga style anything that comes out, in that it just tries too hard to be something it's not. like those marvel mangas or teen titans.

Do you realize this is /jp/? There is a certain requisite knowledge one should have before posting here but since you were polite I will help. Start by looking at the filenames of the posted images.

Listing all the artists that are interesting would be tedious so just look on your own, like you should have been to begin with. Kotonoha typically translates interesting stuff so you could start there.

Also, as a real critique of your work, you need practice with very basic rules of anatomy and composition. I am speaking to you both as a technical artist and a comic artist, you need a lot of improvement. Not sure what sort of standards this publishing company has but your samples seem far from professional.

>Kotonoha typically translates interesting stuff so you could start there.

The guy gave you a very good place to start looking. You should not be using "mangas" as reference anyway, use images of real people and things to help with poses/anatomy as an aide. Comic and animation styles were developed out of necessity and are exaggerations of real life imagery, if you start using that as a reference you become too far removed from the source material, real life, and are nothing more than a parody of a parody, a real problem with the Japanese anime industry today. This goes for story-telling elements as well.

Get off your high horse, if you want more critiques of your work then post it but lose the demanding attitude.

Oh my goodness. I've seen videos of a lyrebird before, but not of the southern white-faced owl. That made my day.

Started with just a sketch for fun, and then it somehow grows, idk

How are my proportions?

it's a shortcoming in the audience as much as the artist--a lot of starting art, literature or whatnot will obviously be messy as shit but I guess I still feel there needs to be some sort of thing that most would call "raw talent" which in truth I believe is little more than the originality of the artist. Obviously one of the difficulties lies in rising above merely bad imitations--this burden lies on the audience's passive acceptance of preexistent norms and notions of art as well as the artist's struggle to create something with the meagre tools they possess (not only talent but the limitations of brush and canvas). It just bothers me that technically-proficient but otherwise uninteresting other artwork will receive serenades, merely perpetuating a system where one attempts to "perfect" a genre--interior to this try to find their own style within such notions, which isn't really a bad idea but not really one I can come to terms with.

Course I don't know shit about art lol.

I really like the use of pink to entrap the center character, as well as the distortion of objects--e.g., signs, umbrellas

A journey into the fantomless depths of the grotesque otaku. Pull no punches and don't try to normalfag your way into glossing over sankaku/pedo/k/ or forcing a good/bad value judgement.

I haven't drawn anything worthwhile in ages but this feeling of physical inadequacy troubles me to no end compared to say, doing math or writing books or short stories or more "conceptual" trades.

Torso's rather long, should shorten it a little. Shoulders should be a little broader too.

Check arm lengths, fingertips should reach the bottom of the buttocks when posing upright. Torso needs some serious reshaping; remember that there's a ribcage and hipbone. Torso:thigh length ratio should be close to 1:1. Bust zone looks pretty good.

I think the loli was supposed to be leaning back, hence why I fixed it as such. But you're right about the torso since I just rushed it for the anon of the original drawing.

I'm no expert, but those legs look a bit too short for that torso.

Aren't those breasts shaped a bit strangely (inner contours)?

I was going for small and perky but maybe i'll change it. Heres my last progress before I sleep; I appreciate the input since this is my first real dive into drawing detailed bodies.

Oh, good thing I decided to randomly check /jp/. Didn't think there was an OC thread because I usually search for "drawthread" and "original content" in the archive.

/ic/ here. I don't normally look in these threads, but seeing this from the front page caught my attention.

These proportions are pretty horrifying. The torso goes forever and/or the limbs are too short. Look at some real people (or even yourself in the mirror, if you happen to be a little girl) and compare the relative lengths of the different body parts. Some real models will also help you see how necks, shoulders, chests, hips, legs, feet, arms, and wrists do not work that way.
