That's really cool. I love that rusty bronze-y color.
And yes I know bronze oxidizes, I'm just saying it's a color something like rust or bronze.
The more obscure your image host, the better you are as a human being.

jmgn, keepin it classy.
do the top people on this board ever critique? i'd be interested in seeing a redline from ThDark, jmgn, or that guy who posts giant lolis (for better or for worse). closest i've seen is a redline from Grachh, tho i think he's a newboi
jmgn you sick puppy.
Fuck it, I like it.

Guys, I think my tablet (pic related) is dead, and I'd like to get a new one. My budget is 150 €. Any recomendations?
>>2370381
Give them some kind of permanent badge of shame.
Something which doesn't impede their participation but lets everyone know they're a filthy cheater.
>>2370368
lol at this 10 second stick frame image being uploaded twice
>>2370395
how long have you had it? In my country there's always a 5 year warranty on computer hardware, so it's good to check if your warranty is still valid.
>>2370396
Here, a scarlet letter for cheaters.
>>2370292
> 28 names
> none are mine
That's actually ok, because I'm willing to acknowledge that I am far below what the most competent among us can produce and that with persistent practice I can get better. It's about competing with yourself; comparison is useless beyond objectively gauging your relative skill.
>>2370400
I'd say about 3-4 years but I should really get a new one, it's been failing for some time now and wacom customer service is shit.
Is this: http://www.wacom.com/es-es/products/pen-tablets/intuos-art any good, or am I better off just saving for this: http://www.wacom.com/es-es/products/pen-tablets/intuos-pro-large ??

College is going to be in the way, I'm just gonna do double the work to cover for the next day in advance from now.
>>2370407
Would you prefer a Scarlet Dickbutt?
>>2370406
Even if you buy a new one, utilize the warranty if it's still valid. You get a free tablet that way. You're better off getting an intuos pro, imo, however the large takes up a lot of space on your desk, and I wasn't able to work comfortably til I got a razer nostromo (now tartarus). Can't type comfortably, though, lol.
>>2370344
taxes hurt rich ppl the most.
plus, you can look at it as paying for your healthcare
wages are probably higher to offset it too
>>2370413
>Would you prefer a Scarlet Dickbutt?
Yes
>>2370413
I really hate small tablets man, after using this one which is more or less like an A5 I would give anything for a big one
>>2370420
I bought a huion h610 pro to replace my wacom bamboo, it's bretty gud.
It's cheap and is a decent size.
>>2370416
Taxes are out of control here. As of this year tips earned in restaurants have a 30% tax on them as well. Wages and job security are higher but so is long-term unemployment to a high degree, also companies are hesitant to hire new people. Also all the rich people move when taxes get high which affects job creation negatively. The healthcare and education have been in sharp decline in this country even as taxes get higher.
>>2370411
I did too, because I'd been working 10-12 hour shifts all week at work. Was too tired on the last day, and just decided to burn my get out of jail free card. Maybe you should double up on drawing on free days to have a buffer? As long as you're averaging about 3.5 hours a week I don't see why that would be cheating.
>>2370420
It's not bad, it just takes a lot of getting used to. Most people I know prefer the medium size, which I might get to try out when I have some extra disposable income.

Cheaters will be straight up eliminated. I deleted this guy's submission and eliminated him from the three active challenges and sent him an email to let him know what happened.
In the past people have uploaded the wrong link but I was able to track them down on social media and find what they had meant to post and update it for them. Since I made it so that you can no longer submit duplicate links that hasn't happened.
This is the first time that I've seen where someone has tried to get around it by rehosting the image and I'm assuming the crop was to make it so you can't reverse image search it, I guess? Although I don't know why they would leave the "Day 15" in the bottom right corner.
He still had his token so I don't understand why he didn't just miss a day instead of trying to cheat it. The image was uploaded 4 days ago so I'm hoping this is all just a mix up. I've emailed him and if he can show me an upload with a timestamp from before the deadline then I'll reinstate him.
>>2370427
I hope for his ass that his persuasion skills are maxed out
other than that, good decision, lava

Thats exactly what I'm gonna do anon, since I have class tomorrow from 8 to 8, and my deadline for an upload is around 7, I'll just do my double upload for today and tomorrow, and then do my drawing for friday as well so I can be ahead of my deadline by a session.
Good luck on your end anon, let's get it.
>>2370294
wut? im not clicking on all of them individually!
>>2370416
But how does it hurt rich people? By making them less rich? Isn't the point of taxing rich people more the fact that they can afford to give more while still keeping comfy lives? I don't understand.

Basically how Scandinavian economies function. The story of the goose that laid golden eggs comes to mind.
>>2370496
This. Rich people are all smart, contrary to common belief. They know how to get around things.
>>2370496
Yup, If you tax the rich too much they'll just fuck off somewhere else and you'll lose them to another country, it's a cruel reality but you've just gotta tread a fine line between milking them as much as you can and not pissing them off.
>>2370405
I agree anon. Just keep working on you.
>>2370503
Or how about you make the people that are risk takers keep their earnings and stop giving tax money to lazy niggers that contribute nothing.
>>2370584
They were baiting for names before the follow function existed, they'll keep baiting after it's removed
Just finished my first ever dildo use drawing. Jmgn I think I understand you a little more now.
>>2370580
This to be honest family. I'm a relatively low income guy so presumably these people screaming to tax the shit out of the rich have "my best interests" in mind but whenever I hear that the rich should "pay their fair share" I can't help but wince because it's just bullshit rhetoric.
Sakimi-chan has paid more towards 'the system" in 6 months than I have in my entire life lol. Our current tax system is pretty much fine the way it is honestly, it's runaway spending that needs to be controlled and diverted to necessities, not to mention the fact that poor people need to somehow stop being low iq troglodyte obese hedonists 95% of the time.
As long as we're on the subject of Sweden, too, let's not forget Sweden's housing crisis (that was ongoing BEFORE they took in tens of thousands of rapefugees
http://www.thelocal.se/20150324/more-homes-are-needed-to-solve-housing-shortage
>Today, close to 300,000 young adults between 20 and 27 years of age are without property. Over half of Sweden's local authorities state that they have a housing shortage. The acute housing shortage above all hits the regions' bigger cities and Sweden's university towns.
>>2370618
The reason there is a huge housing shortage in Swedish cities is because of rent-capping (another genius socialist way to achieve fairness). The principle is to make rented housing cheaper, but the side effects are 10-20 year housing queues, black market rental contract sales, and a massive inflation in the mortgage loan sector (facilitated by lowered interest for mortgages). Also lol at this becoming a socialism/Sweden thread.
>>2370618
>implying freelancers ever pay their taxes
TOP L O L
>>2370636
Fuck you I pay my taxes every year.
>>2370636
Sakimichan goes through Patreon which not only takes 10% of her earnings but reports her earnings to the IRS. She might not report taxes on any freelance side-projects that she does but that's another thing entirely because not a single one of us knows how much she makes from those or how often she does them. I think I saw that she'd contributed to some mobile game fairly recently.
>>2370635
Yeah, I'm not a libertarian by any means but straight up command economies typically don't work out too well.
Can we take this discussion to /pol/? While everyone knows Sweden is a shithole this is an art board. Let's talk about art.
>>2370654
Yeah, sorry bud.
We /pol/ now?

Mine as well. We'll show all of these doubters. I'll make them wish they were following me from day 1.
Guys, I feel bad now and want to come clean.
I didn't have much time yesterday and I did stuff for only 30 minutes or so exactly, and I felt that it wasn't enough and would look like shit and I would get a low effort warning or something, I dunno.
So I took my brothers older studies and plastered them next to my practice to make it look as if I did more than I had actually done. I don't know what I was thinking, this was stupid in hindsight.
>http://i.imgur.com/1RJQLwz.jpg
farthest right is my brothers older study, my user is Lorkhatosh. Do whatever you will with me.
>>2370776
Well you drew for 30 minutes so you met the requirement. Not like you cheated or anything.
>>2370776
Why can't you be like your brother anon? Look at his studies and apply yourself. Or quit. It's your life bro.
>>2370776
TRIBUBAL TRIBUNAL. Jk your first one would've been fine alone, I haven't seen anyone complain about lack of effort in these threads for the most part. They only call out tracers or cheaters.
>>2370776
I think you should be excused this time for being honorable and confessing. By the way, I've only done 30 minutes for a few days when I was really busy. Not all of us have the free time (or are willing to sacrifice the sleep) to draw for over an hour every day, doing the minimum is fine as long as you're drawing every day.
>>2370781
I am trying now anon, I got all them books and everything, it's just that because I grew up in a country where there are almost no digital artists and I was the only guy fucking around with Wacom drawing shit in Photoshop everyone told me that I was great even though I had no understanding of fundamentals and just plastered shadows and lighting and colors how I felt it.
Then I came to /ic/ and realized that I am shit and I need to be like my brother who is constantly practicing his fundies with pencil and shit like that.
Sorry anon.
>>2370769
The site and idea is great and all for people who are struggling to draw every day. But for people like me who's been drawing every day since November 2014, I don't see how it can benefit me, so I didn't give up, I'm just not posting what I do
>>2370791
I panicked because I saw another guy that got eliminated because he got caught and I realized that I did similar shit for no reason.
In the end this challenge is supposed to be a sort of reminder/motivation to draw everyday, what is the fucking point of doing it if I am not going to just draw every day as much as I can, there are no upboats earned here and this isn't tumblr where people will pat you on back for doing good posts every day. Just have to practice.
>>2370797
This is the prelude to tumblr where you git gud
>>2370796
that's good to hear although it still sounds a little bit like giving up
>you could've had it all
>rovering in the deep
>you had your art inside of my head
>but then you gave up
>and now you're
>and now you're
>and now you're just a neet
>>2370796
While you're free to do whatever you want, personally I draw every day regardless as well, and posting takes me 5 seconds with shareX, so even though I think it's kind of pointless, it's become a fun little society within /ic/ - a meme infested shithole, but I'm a lesbian so I'm into that.
Posting or not doesn't really have much of an effect on my drawing, it's just to be a part of something, since I don't post shit anywhere else really.
>all these Tribunal talks
It's making my anxiety level rise.
Please don't ban me I'm just bad it's not like I'm not aware of the rules I really am drawing for at least 30 minutes a day please.
>>2370844
don't worry it'll require an overwhelming majority and even then it's just a warning. i'll be manually reviewing the results for a long time to make sure they're at a good spot
>>2370830
>a meme infested shithole, but I'm a lesbian
I'm also a lesbian but I'm not into infested shitholes, what the fuck anon

>>2370796
Makes sense, I draw every day as well but I enjoy the community and looking at everyone's progress. Hope you keep improving.

>>2371020
mfw people call nile a kid constantly and I'm only a year older than him
>>2371030
how old are you
>>2371031
nile must be 15-16
>>2371031
Well according to tumblr nile is 17, so simple math tells us: 17+1= 18 years old.
>>2371039
I want to see Nile's art since he gets mentioned so much on this shithole
>>2371045
ah! your art is going to be good some day! keep it up! people get weird about age because of insecurity when you are still not good. you believe studying doesn't guarantee you are going to become good when it does. so losing time is a scary feeling
they should actually try instead of asking themselves if it's worth it.
when in reality. it is actually worth it.
>>2371047
Well thanks for the encouragement, but I hope you didn't get confused, I'm not nile I just linked his blog.
>>2371047
I always found people caring about someone younger being better is weird, maybe because in the music world it's common to start at a very young age. Unless you have a finite amount of time then age doesn't matter, just the rate that you improve.
This is coming from someone who started from scratch at 29 years old so maybe I'm biased
>>2371047
For me it's frustration about starting a decade later and thus having the skill level of a retard fingerpainting with their own shit. Most of my life I was led to believe that if I couldn't draw from the start, it was simply because I didn't have talent and thus shouldn't even try. In retrospect that makes me even worse than the aforementioned retard.
>>2371028
Well done, get to work, here's your complimentary loomis
>>2371041
Then why is a kid supposed to be trusted to have any sort of responsibility?
What drives people to force their own children out of their homes if they cant even regard them as little more than a toddler with a rich vocabulary.
The site says I started the third challenge on the 23rd even though I don't remember using any tokens and I uploaded all my drawings on time.
I was in the second challenge.
maybe I'm just retarded and fucked up without knowing it.
names cathode
>>2371025
ALL IN MOTHERFUCKERS
>>2371085
Everyone started the third challenge on the 23rd. Each week you enter a new challenge while still staying in the one from the previous week.
>>2371085
If you check out your profile and check out the Active Challenges tab it shows that you're in both challenge #2 and #3. The new challenge every week system is to allow new people to join and for the eliminated to rejoin (and because the challenges will last a long time and it would suck for everyone to wait.) Next week you'll join the 4th and so on but if you get eliminated by missing 2 days then you're out of all of them and can rejoin the next week
