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.

Congratulations Santi! You have become the first artist posting. Here is your complementary badge!
>>2581100
Oh wow. Thank you. I didn't expect to be awarded this price, I have to thank everyone who has helped me get this far in my shitposting career, thready for making this achievement possible, lava for teaching me what shitposting truly means and my predecessors Rover, Loomis and jerrybreem which I'm sure is in the audience right now. Rover and Loomis sadly are not here but I'm sure they're watching me with proud eyes from the LAS heaven. Anyways thank you for this award

A quick note on the animation exercises; a lot of you guys didn't notice the
>Character head turn with anticipation
>with anticipation
part, which is arguably the more important part. Meaning you can see that the character is about to do something before they do it, like when someone is about to jump, they'll almost charge up like a spring, or when someone can frown and blink before they turn their head.
Just a thought, anticipation is an important thing.
>>2581143
no I didn't!
>>2581105
read that entire thing in adam sandlers voice.
https://picarto.tv/susipari
Susi still streaming.
>>2581161
Yeah, I noticed some people like susi rotated their heads in space and just eased it out instead of adding anticipation
If dubs I will sacrifice my token to the gods.

I hope JP is headed to the tribunal tomorrow for cheating, we can do it.
I love that submission of yours
Thanks!
>>2581352
Louse and CyanidePill will be too for their innacurate thumbnails, right?
>>2581354
What an imbecile, can't you see is shit?
>>2581357
Maybe, but that is a minor thing.
What's the punishment for cheating, Lava? I hope it's elimination.
>>2581359
pretty sure it is
but if it's token loss, it should take into account the state of the user at when the cheating occurred, so if they cheated when they would otherwise lose a token then it should be a token loss, but if they cheated when they would have died then they should be treated like they really did "die" back then (all the challenges up until that point invalidated)
However I think cheaters get flat out killed eitherway.

How do I rekindle the passion /las/?
>>2581695
Let me know when you find out.
I just registered to this site and looked at the recent eliminations.
>LavaFlake drew one too many dragon dicks so they have been eliminated from
So the site's namesake has been eliminated for dragon dicks. How literal is this elimination message?
>>2581712
none of them are literal, they are pulled from a random assortment of premades. occasionally there is a custom elimination message, but many people have been eliminated for drawing dragon dicks.
>>2581713
I see. So he just missed two days?
Why not post daily submissions in thread? Is that against the rules, or do people generally not want to discuss their work or something?
>>2581718
it's basically a separate site that forces the one thing people on 4chan generally avoid- being tied to a name.
ppl have attempted things like /las/ on board or in thread before, it has always failed.
>>2581721
Yeah, I think I understand the concept, and it's cool, I just kind of assumed there would be a community aspect, and that perhaps the community feedback/interaction would be in this thread, I'm not seeing anything like that on the site.
>>2581725
Now you're confusing me anon. The community aspect is this thread. The art part is the site. You don't post to the site you get consequences. That's all there is to it. Who knows why Lava didn't post, who cares.
>maybe he's dead and this is the end of /las/
>>2581729
Sorry, I guess I was kind of vague.
I meant: why aren't people who ARE submitting their images to the site ALSO submitting them to the thread for feedback and discussion and w/e? I wouldn't assume everyone would want to, but I thought that would be somewhat common. I'm not seeing any submissions in this thread or the previous one, except for that snow scene colab.
>>2581743
why post it twice? i'm sure if people wanted actual crit they'd post here as well, maybe most of them don't?
>>2581743
because it's 30 minute garbage and I'm sure most of the users know what they need to work on to improve
>>2581750
>garbage
are you good enough to make that judgement boy?
>>2581743
That's the one fatal flaw of the community. Now that names are attached, a lot of users are afraid if they ask for crit they'll be memed to death in future threads, which has really only been an issue for one person so there's no reason to worry.
And then whenever anyone tries to give advice unprompted, there are 1 or 2 autists (this guy >>2581756
) that come bickering and try to discourage all critique. The critique givers are so sick of them they stopped helping or dropped out entirely.
Hopefully that doesn't discourage you from asking for help in the future. People still do, but it's rare for the above reasons.
>>2581759
Not him, but I don't give a fuck about getting memed on, I just don't feel like polluting the thread with my abortions.
>>2581750
Posting your work is very dangerous. There was a pretty new artist named fuckyoumang who came into this thread asking for help and he just got memed into oblivion. People were insulting him left and right and they started doubting that he even spent 30 minutes on his art. The poor guy ended up streaming his entire process and people still hated on him, they eventually reported his submissions and got the poor fella eliminated from las. Just saying, be careful, these guys put on a nice face but their teeth come out when they smell blood. You too could be like fuckyoumang if you're not careful.
>>2581775
>this is why I don't post my work in these threads, I'm near the bottom of the barrel and there are many much better than I posting on /las/
maybe as I get better that will change, also I think I have a pretty good idea of what I'm fucking up on.
>>2581780
Risking it, I haven't touched my las account in 2 months, but I want to become meme worthy.
>>2581784
Just so you know, this is what fuckyoumang was posting and calling 30 minutes of work...
>>2581785
Was he paraplegic or something?
>>2581171
>tfw I got stood up
Where do you find master paintings and shit to study? I am uncultured swine and don't have a clue about where to look.
Jesus, jmgn, today's submission.
>>2581806
master paintings?? just study anime like everyone else
>>2581806
Museum websites usually have high res pictures. Also google gave me this: http://www.wga.hu/index1.html
>>2581806
You could start with the sculpture thread that's up, or just google search the names of the old masters you want to study.
>Waiting for watercolor painting to dry
>Fly lands on it to drink the water
My art gives life.
>>2581806
there's the abandoned /ic/ booru
http://farb.booru.org/index.php
>>2581815
>just google search the names of the old masters
>>2581823
If you can't figure out how to find hi-res images of old masters work on the internet, yer not gonna make it friend.
>>2581828
No you see, I am so uncultured and ignorant that I didn't know "old masters" was an established concept that would give lots of search results and even a wiki page. I can certainly work with that much.
>>2581832
Then I'm sorry for being a shit head anon, but as a friendly reminder that will get you far in life- trying to figure something out for yourself is important. if you are struggling by all means ask for help, but c'mon anon, at least look before asking for help.
>>2581833
>he forgot michelangelo
top fucking pleb
>>2581836
I tend to exclude him given is exaggerated anatomy. He also couldn't draw/paint women well, and the Sistine Chapel looks really weird up close due to the illusionistic elements used to compensate for the vaulted ceiling. He's a master to be sure, but not somebody that I'd recommend for what I can only assume is a first master copy.
>>2581835
I usually do, just sometimes it helps a lot to ask what to search for. I've never tried a master study before and want to try it for mmrgl's challenge.
Strumming?
>>2580998
Yea but susi has the right to bitch about brexit because what they did is fucking retarded. All the politicians there are in damage control

I agree with all of that but pls keep that shit out of here, the last thread already got shit up enough by /pol/fags.
>>2581938
so in your world everybody who doesn't succumb to your rule is ostracized?
why do you think other countries are asking to have their vote to leave as well?
wew, millenial pls go and stay go
>>2581945
Plz leave oldfag
>>2581938
I bet you think anyone who wants to keep their guns must be a backwater hillbilly too.
It's a complex issue with pros and cons on each side. Don't think of it so black and white.
LAVA WHY THE FUCK IS NOT JP ON THE TRIBUNAL WHY DON'T YOU PUT IT THERE YOURSELF REEEEEEEEEE
>>2581695
You can try joining challenges
>>2581987
kek. Tribunalfags BTFO yet again
I think that once I finish the mecha challenge, I will stay out of challenges for a while so I can focus work on some personal pieces. I also got my first commission, which has me a little nervous.
Pls lasses, don't set up any cool challenge while I'm staying low.
strem?
>tfw I only hang around here because I'm better than 90% of you guys and it makes me feel better about myself
Maybe it's why I'm stagnating

HEIL LOOMIS
>>2582131
>>2582131
the gestapo sucks since they haven't found any of my low effort pieces :^)
>>2582131
They're useless. How many of you fat gestapo fucks called out jp? HOW MANY OF YOU?! Now you tell me, where is that cheating bastard now? He isn't preparing for his tribunal case that's for damn sure, and he isn't praying to lord Loomis for forgiveness that's for damn sure. JP, that veiny fuck, Is sitting at home doodling on his fucking arm and submitting the same post multiple times while you useless gestapo fucks come to this thread looking for ass pats! FUCK OFF MY BOARD
>>2582150
n-no please! we'll get jp for sure just wait for tomorrow's tribunal WE SWEAR
>>2582141
Fibinochi?
>tfw we make it to 2017 and both Fibinochi and jp are still in week 1
>>2582150
did you report him? because we can't do anything if we all don't report things when are called out in the threads.
That or Lava could change the report system, because fuck seeing an obvious cheater and not being able to do anything because of not enough reports.

i only submit in the last 2 minutes

Hol up [Smacks lips] you're telling me you dont need to submit when you enter a challenge? thanks
>>2582263
tch, god damn tyrone you dindn't know that already? honestly
>>2582264
Tyrone has INT 8, don't blame the poor guy. The only thing he knows how to do well is casting Divine Smite on monsters
Godammit BrokenStylus, no offense but that face is cracking me, I have suffered severe lacerations and internal hemorrhaging of mein sides.
How do I draw feathers on a birds' wing
Someone should do a challenge with a rule that tolds Fibinochi to fuck off.
>>2582303
Just wing it.
Fibinochi has an ask option in his Tumblr, should we tell him to stop?
Do harpies count for Avian? im gonna do a harpy
>>2582324

yeah that's fine
>>2582328
awsome im gonna do pumparum
>>2582330
looking forward to it :3
>>2582327
/las/ses are cute when they're bullied!
why do you guys care about Fibinochi not submitting on challenges anyway? is not like it affects you in some bad way.
>>2582345
Just because it doesn't really affect you in some bad way doesn't mean you can't feel annoyed by it, like if an insect crawled its way on the top of my desk, I'd squash it, even though in all likelihood it wouldn't have affected me in some bad way.
Yes, Fibinochi is an insect.

Jesus Christ
Have you guys ever even gone outside of your basement?
/las/sies, what are your opinions on filters, textures, or both?
>>2582396
i dont use em
>>2582396
every professional in the industry uses them, if you want to become on you're eventually going to have to learn how to.
>>2582396
they're great for adding a little bit of oomph to an otherwise plain sketch
>>2582396
Only use textures when they match the detail level of the rest of the piece, and not to define the detail level. Filters can be somewhat useful for some specific effects if applied subtly enough that you can't tell one was used at all.
Similarly, tracing can be helpful for beginners to unlearn symbol drawing, and photo-bashing can be a great way to set-up a thumbnail. All of these things people on /ic/ tend to hate can be useful for specific shit, but if you rely on them or just use them a little too much, you're going to kill your work and waste your time.
Make sure you've got a very strong grasp of fundamentals before you bother with shit like that.

>tfw trying to FEEL it but can't feel anything

Anyway, anyone wants to save the composition by adding something to the right side?
>>2581021
l-lewd :3c
>>2581111
That looks so awesome! I love how you get such a variety of ideas in collabs, i was seeing just a park with the city skyline in the distance (top left) in the first phase.
>>2582005
That's what i said to myself last week and somehow i'm already in 3 new challenges -.- They are just too much fun, a new way to procrastinate from doing my portfolio.
Also, i'd like to request a lynching/critique of my profile if anyone have time - *larrex*. Maybe it's just a caffeine withdrawal, but today it feels like i'm hitting a brick wall.
>>2582660
>tfw was too lazy too properly render the tail and now it looks like a slug or a stalagmite.
>>2582660
composition is pretty easy to fix by either having her look at the snowman, at any of the other subjects or light sources
o-or have them hold hands
Also I didn't think of a park at all! that's really cool how that works out
How do you like my arian avian drawing today?
>>2582687
I just reported it for low effort you scum.

>>2582724
Sorry, but that doesn't look like it took 30 minutes. If it is a lack of skill, then I'm sorry, and I'll rescind my report if it becomes an actual case. (I'm the second one btw)
hopefully a week 1er dies today! :D
