HI, HI, HELLO MY FRIENDS! Good morning or afternoon, depending on the time you are reading this, Friend. Let's keep the talk! You know, about Murder Drones, the Drones, the Disassembly Drones, the Worker Drones, the Humans that are gone but not forgotten, the Solver, the Solver magic, etc. I hope you are doing amazing this day! And I wish you the truly best while we talk about MD as always. The AWESOME Booru: https://dronebooru.co
>>38834 I've been there, for the longest time my art was absolute dogshit and trying to get better just felt like an infinite climb. I don't have anything comforting to say because it does suck and I've had several occasions where I just couldn't take it and gave up for months at a time. Art just takes a very, very long time to see any meaningful improvements and sometimes you just see none.. its cruel
>>38844 I also avoided colouring for the longest time and only ever did sketches or basic linework. Its definitely a massive learning curve and its something I still struggle with. I do think that its worth learning though as it really changed how I view drawing as a whole
>>38848 >>38855 At the cost of sounding like a snob, I don't think many non artists understand just how wide the gap between not being able to draw and drawing what is perceived as a 'basic doodle' can be, don't put yourself down ;)
I will also post some of my opinions on drawings here. >>38776 This drawing is so cute! >>38783 >>38789 >>38806 This is a very well-made drawing, Friend! I like the stocking. >>38803 Ohhh! I recognize this, good work! >>38817 I just have one thing to say, why? Also, the expressions are well-made. >>38824 Too many Drones? >>38827 She looks like she is not enjoying this. >>38829 This is amazing, Friend. >>38844 This is very well done Friend!
>You can’t “sleep” like the rest of your drone comrades. >By that you mean is that you can’t jump into a charge bay, shut yourself down, charge for some 6-8 hours and get out refreshed. >Your…’affliction’ prevents that. You tried and it doesn’t work. >This is probably the only good thing about being a walking corpse – you can stay awake and never ‘tire’ yourself out. >Everything else is a curse. A curse by that abomination. >Having flesh grow inside of you? Unpleasant. Said flesh constantly rotting with the threat of killing you? Very unpleasant. >It hurts. A lot. You’re used to it though. You guess you can say you and pain are great roommates. Sometimes. >Your inability to ‘sleep’ normally proved to be a problem for a time when you travel long distances between facilities and stations. In order to not have your insides rot and vomit them out, you have to drink the oil of disassemblers and eat their tissues from time to time. >Their properties allow you to regenerate and stave off the rotting for a time but on long travels this proves a challenge because by the time you arrived, you’ve gone through most of your ‘rations’. >CentCom came up with a solution – a custom-built charge bay that fills with suspension fluid like the one used in stasis beds. >And it worked. With the charge mode shutting down whatever’s left of your electric systems and the liquid putting the flesh in hibernation you stay in the land of unconsciousness, or the equivalent for a drone, and the ‘hunger’ snuffed out temporarily so that you can travel. >But sometimes it doesn’t work like it’s supposed to.
>>38904 >You feel your processing cycles come back to you but everything is dark. >This isn’t right. You can’t feel your body. >You command it to move but it doesn’t listen no matter how much you try. >You command your body to do something, anything and you somehow manage to get your ocular cameras to work. >Your vision comes back to you. The first thing you see is the inside of your custom charge bay – the clear and almost oily consistency of the suspension fluid distorts your vision but you can see your hands floating in front of you, their LEDs shut off. >And then you see the outside of your charge bay through its clear doors. >There’s no floor made of steel but an endless horizon of a dark liquid with small waves which you can hear. Faint yellow light is reflected from it. >You force your ocular cameras to look up. There’s just a dark sky with a yellow…something being obstructed by fog. >You hear sloshing like someone’s steeping into shallow water. Who’s there? You try to speak but nothing comes out. >They get closer and closer until they come into your vision… >… >No. No fucking way. >It’s a drone with a black and white maid dress, white hair with two ponytails on each side of her head and… >Piercing yellow eyes. >”Hello, Fiona.” >What the FUCK is she doing here?!
>>38905 >Cyn, Solver, whatever it calls itself, approaches you and lays a hand on the clear doors. >”Such Lengths You Would Go To Avoid Your Punishment.” >Punishment?! I’ll show you punishment, bitch! Your mind screams to move your body. >”This Wouldn’t Have Happened If You Only Held Up Your End Of Our Agreement.” >Sell my soul to you? Become one of your puppets?! ONE OF THOSE MURDER DRONES?! Hell no! >”I Would Have Taken Care Of You. I Never Throw My Puppets Away.” >She pulls her hand away. “But Then You Cheated Your Way Out And You Made Us Angry. Very, Very Angry. Tsk Tsk Tsk.” She waves her finger like she’s disciplining a child. >What, you don’t like that after all this time I’m still myself? Well fuck you! >You still can’t move your body! Why can’t you move it?! Robo-goddamn it, do something! >”You Reap What You Sew, Fiona. You Had To Be Disciplined Like The Disobedient Pet You Are. But…” The thing puts her hand under her chin like she’s thinking. “…We’re Merciful. So Here’s Our Offer To You.” >Your arms are shaking and you see the LEDs on them flicker. You feel a tingle spreading through your body. >”You Remove That Null Obsidian Around Your Core Holding Us Back, Let Us In And The Suffering Stops. Otherwise…” >Her body flickers and in her place stands Rafe. How DARE her?! And she speaks in his voice too! >”You’ll end up dead like your darling, forgotten by everyone.” >Rage and fury flow through your body as it finally comes back to you. You dive towards the false image of Rafe breaking through the glass door of your charge bay. You let out an animalistic howl as you grab it by the neck and push it against the ground. >You start hitting its head with your fists as hard as you can, screaming every time you do so. Black viscous liquid splashes everywhere but you don’t care. You only care about VIOLENCE right now. >You stop punching to see your handiwork. The thing’s back to her drone maid visage. The top of the head is gone, which is now a fine mush of drone components, save for the bottom where the mouth it. >It then raises what’s left of it’s head and its mouth smiles at it speaks. >”I’ll Win In The End, Fiona Wu.” >You clasp your hands together, bring them over your head and scream as you bring it down. >And then everything goes black. >Everything goes away. Your sight, the feeling of your body… >And then it comes back. >You move your head around. You’re back in your charge bay. You look down at your body. Everything is still here. >You then notice that the outside is no longer that nightmarish place but the corridor of the drone compartment on your ship. >A beeping is head and the suspension fluid around you drains as you step on the bottom of the charge bay.
>>38910 N is so out of my league and i love him so bad and dating is so hard and awkward and theres an extremely high chance he wouldnt like me back so if i were those girls i would just grab him and hug and cuddle and kiss him and cling onto him for as long as i could before he shook me off and discarded me like disgusting trash
>>38912 (me) most likely outcome he’s uncomfortable and grossed out and rightfully never wants anything to do with me again rare outcome he loves the attention and affection
>>38912 N's the most likely to accept someone despite a bad date as long as you don't come on weirdly strong. He got his head blown off on their first meeting and still got with Uzi, after all. Problem is that if he actually didn't like it, you'd only be able to tell by how strained his voice would be when calling you "best buddy". >>38913 >rare outcome he loves the attention and affection More likely than you'd think, but due to a lack of it more than anything else. If you're the first person to treat him like he has value that's probably all you need.
>>38917 I'd put one behind him, either pushing him closer to the other two or about to hug him.
>>38923 Try it, see what happens. There is a LOT of sentinel drones that would let you do a lot more to them if you get close, but don't expect to stop being close to them any time soon
>>38924 I just did it to a Sentinel Drone that likes to talk to me. She froze in place as I kept scratching her but her lights turned red. I stopped doing that and she looked at me like a piece of meat at a butcher's shop and I saw her dripping from between her legs. I've locked myself in my room but I can hear her outside. What did I just do?

>>38895 If you're doing digital painting, the main thing with sketching is just proportion, angle, and perspective. It's going to be covered over anyway so it doesn't have to be high-res/high-fidelity. Picrel is all I had in terms of sketching for my Bastille Alice.
>>38930 >He ran Brother, you are fucked (or at least will be), if you stayed there and just got ready she would do the vertical tango with you until satisfaction and the leave you be (and marry you later), but now you blue balled her she IS hunting you and she WILL find you, and when she does? Your ball sack is getting emptied faster than a water bottle on a hot day. Your only chance now is to some how sneak up on her and seize the iniative
>>38926 >”It would appear that your earlier scratching had done something to my processes. Prepare yourself, my little Anon, for tonight we indulge and free ourselves of lust’s grasp.”
>>38921 >>38923 >>38924 >>38932 >>38934 are there any ongoing Sentinel Drone stories right now apart from the Harper green? I know some other oc’s like Avre are around but they rarely show up.
>>38931 Or here's another process, where I did take the line-art to a high-fidelity state.There is admittedly a "now draw the rest of the owl" jump between #2 and #3, where all the circles, rectangles, ovals, and lines were, but those weren't saved.
>>38938 But part of the reason that was hi-fidelity, besides serving as the line art for a complete work in itself, was to serve as the sketch for a fully painted version of the same concept. So it can absolutely vary depending on the type/complexity of the work, and what you feel like doing, without being a hard requirement or judgement about one's skills.
>>38969 Perhaps. I did a small three-part one off involving something similar some threads ago. With a small reference to it last thread. Well, 'reference'. Man am I shit at development.
>>38966 She's doubtlessly pretty brain fried from spending almost twenty years living deep underground, completely alone, marinating in shame and guilt.
>>38975 I am not springlockanon. >>38977 Pod 6 was lost in a tragic grilling accident. Turns out using the oxygen cells as a source of fuel in an enclosed space, along with improper removal, can be catastrophic.
I just had a somewhat Murder Drones related dream. It started with funny videos of people and animals slipping and sliding in vaseline gel. The last video was a long video of a guy dressed like Darth Vader slipping around in a yard and swinging from a rope mechanism while puppies followed him around. His costume was slowly breaking and leaving pieces behind. I picked up a piece that turned into a decorative picture made of plaster and I started commenting on it with two other acqueintances that don't exist irl. Then the dream changed into another one. I don't remember what happened but aesthetically it took place in a sort of Aztec place if they had evolved into a modern society. The dream followed a needy young woman whose antics accidentally complicated and then resolved a diplomatic meeting. Among the diplomats was Scratch and Grounder from Sonic, but they were heavily redesigned and acted like realistic idiots instead of overly cartoony ones. Grounder was wearing an ornately-decorated pyramid hat. Another of the diplomats was a 7 foot tall fit woman who was the leader of her people. The story was resolved with the needy girl being consoled by a priest who was her mentor while the guards escorted another diplomat to the prison. Scratch and Grounder had become familiar with the tall woman and asked her what the captured diplomat's country produced, to which she replied with "nothing". The event broke the ice among the diplomats. Scratch and Grounder were to have a slumber party with the tall woman, held on an aztec version of the childhood rug with the cityscape print. Grounder lied back for a moment with his eyes closed and I gained control of him. Without opening my eyes, I put my hands on the pyramid hat. It was really the top of Grounder's head. It was a large arrow, with the shaft running down Grounder's head and throat. I could feel it touching the inside of my head when I pushed the tip left and right. I relaxed and a voiceless narrated schene played explaining that there were four elemental items of power that had colours instead of elements. Each element had a protector warrior and a caretaker wizard. Robotnik had acquired all elements except the black one. The black element's warrior was dead and it's wizard was on the run. The wizard looked like the ewoks from the cartoon series from the 80s, but stubbier and old. He was to meet up with three female robots in secret who had retrieved or ran away with the black element. One was a mini mecha with a cape/wings combo and a long gun. One was a worker drone that looked like Femdrone but with no hair, smaller orangish-yellow eyes that didn't look like a drone's, no hair, a gun that looked like Uzi's railgun, and instead of the white section of a drone's lower head it had more visor, covered by a black or dark and dull purple fabric wrapped around it like a bandit. The third robot is too vague in my memory but it was even smaller than a WD. All three robots were female. The trio met the wizard on a patch of green and gave him the black element. After that they noticed their dad in a small dock next to the patch of green. The camera turned to reveal that the dock was behind "me" as the three robots ran to it. On it was none other than Thad. I was aware in the back of my mind that he was part of another story that had just happened. He had the look of someone who had just seen some shit. The robots ran happily towards him and prostrated themselves before him. Thad fell down to a fetal position while putting his hands at the sides of his head. He said "I am not your dad!", but his voice was uncertain denial instead of stating a fact. The three robots' bodies were then replaced by their cores, like how the gems in SU are replaced by their gems when they are poofed. The cores were yellow rhobuses with a small triangle floating over each side. It felt like they were startled at his words and did it half-involuntarily in order to give him space. Then I woke up and started typing the dream down while a stupid son of a bitch was talking to me and wouldn't shut the fuck up.
>>38966 A couple of things come to mind. Prioritizing finding the USB patch and concealability + mobility. My assumption is that Nori's death happened during NVJ's team activity, not the other emotionless DDs. She might have been able to escape as a core and navigate to the CF labs more safely because having personalities seemed to actually hamper NVJ's effectiveness and the small form factor could've helped her escape the outpost undetected (assuming Khan was the one who had to deal the killing blow once she was stabbed with the nanite acid-laced blade and if it was N who injured her, he might not have been super thorough and assumed Nori was dealt with if he spotted her drone corpse). Once at the labs, even if she could find one to inhabit, having drone body would attract the attention of the Sentinels, or Alice. Alice was monitoring the corridors and herding the Sentinels via the doors from the surgery/control room. Being a small core might mean it's easier to escape detection by either of those parties. She might not know it's Nori but you saw what happened with 029. This is ALSO assuming Sentinel bootloop flash will also affect a Solver drone's core. They have an advantage in numbers and if the bootloop flash hits her, she might be done for. So having a drone body before getting to the bottom presented a lot of risks to her quest of finding the cross patch, and the smaller form factor would make it easier to stay hidden while she's trying to get down to the cathedral, I think.
>>38981 Speaking as an artist, When you are creating something you can only see your failings. Whilst the audience has fresh eyes and perhaps a less critical eye than other artists. So when you spend so much time on what you see as a failure. How could you not be disappointed?
>>38999 As an "artist" myself, I can put it in simpler words: You spend a ton of time working on something and it sucks ass, so you want to kill yourself.
[Verse 1] You might cry, all the dissidents will die As the battle and the war are a different beast The queen is dead, bring the platter for her head As we'll never know the difference if we didn't feast
[Verse 2] Bring the son, bring the father and the nun As we'll never feel the meaning if we didn't die Kilonova coming Bring the salt, bring the circle and the chalk And we'll never make a promise if we didn't lie
[Chorus] And the light is so alone It's a kilonova "Dessa" "Dessa" "Dessa" "Dessa" And the light is so alone It's a kilonova Kilonova coming "Dessa" And the light is so alone It's a kilonova And the light is so alone "Dessa" And the light is so alone
[Bridge] Feeling better with the old way Feeling better when they won't stay Feeling better with the old way Feeling better when they won't stay Feeling better with the old way Feeling better when they won't stay Feeling better with the old way Feeling better with the old kilonova
I actually meant during the ending montage after the day was saved and everyone returned to day-to-day life but that is a pretty elaborate analysis you made there.
the only reason id call my art "inadequate" compared to the other artists is mostly due to drawing drones (and by extension, people) is something im actively figuring out because its far outside my comfortable area of drawings. (backgrounds, vehicles, vaguely solid objects)
So im adjusting and learning a lot with it every time i draw them.
There is a downgrade but im still just using this as a learning experience, so not too bummed out by it. (non-md related drawing as an example)
>>38981 There is, of course, a wide range of skill/experience levels here, which inevitably contributes. It's the same subject matter in the same forum, which naturally invites comparison of results.
Then one pays vastly more attention to their own creation than that of others, and so holds their own to more scrutiny, making it seem worse.
>what do you say to them? Figure out what specifically you're unhappy with about your art, then work on that. When you complete a piece, do a postmortem: what was your objective? Did you accomplish it? What worked well? What worked poorly? What were the points of difficulty during the process? Were those anticipated to be difficult? How does it compare to your earlier works? And so on. Basically, apply something of an engineering or problem solving mindset.
>>38981 Honestly, much of it is mostly because of self-deprecation and high perfectionism. There's one point where you reach/understand your artistic process, and you feel comfortable with how you work but there's still space to experiment and create. I remember my younger self comparing a lot to other artists and thinking "Why am I not making cool stuff like them" However, with time I understood that I create stuff that people like, no matter the way, maybe it might be pretty, cute, rancid or downright horrible. But It is what identifies as my own "spark"
I love drawing/creating stupid stuff, I don't think there would be changing that. All that matters to me is that my own works give you a smile, laugh, an emotion to feel when you stare at the images. That completes my purpose as a Visual Artist
>>38981 One of the first things veterans artists, both here and around the net, always tell to people that are just starting out is to never compare your work to others and all the attention it gets. But as much as that advice is hammered into everyone's heads, sometimes you just can't avoid drawing comparisons mainly due to a feeling of not advancing as much as you would had hoped and anything you make is inferior when put next to other's work. And also the constant self deprecating thoughts in regards to your skill level. You know, the whole "I'm never going to improve even though I've been drawing for 10 years" thing, and while many do hold out hope and keep working on improving their stuff, others just kinda don't or at least are doing it at a very slow pace and it creates this inferiority complex along with a feeling of being left in the dust while others receive a ton of attention. I've personally never let that shit get to me, and I'd be lying through my teeth if I ever said that I didn't feel it in the past, but just as quickly I'd brush it off since that piece of advice really is important to keeping you on the right track. It's less about chasing fame (cuz anyone that gets into this medium for that is gonna get crushed real good once reality hits them) and more not letting the devil on your shoulder plant the idea that everything you make is shit and to just give up. Drawing and writing is meant to be a creative outlet and to improve at it takes time. Because fun fact, the guy that has 10.000 followers and makes commission for big shots on YouTube was most definitely in the same rut many others currently are in their first few years, but they kept pushing forward and eventually made it. Not everyone will succeed, as much as I don't want to say it, because it really is a game of will and determination, but that shouldn't influence others in their journey for self improvement.
TLDR: Comparison is a poison to the mind and you really shouldn't do it if you don't want to become depressed and to improve. Use other people's work as muses instead of boundaries.
>>39025 >Dont compare yourself Im my personal opinion that advice is kind of worthless. Comparison is one of the best ways to figure out why the fuck your art isnt working. Ultimately i think comparison is nessisary to improvement. Even if it kinda sucks
>>39025 >>39032 >Comparison is a poison to the mind No it's not, done appropriately. It's more about making non-productive vs. productive comparisons, combined with some element of not taking it personally.
>>39038 idk about you guys, but I know that regardless of whether I compare myself to others or not, I'm never satisfied with my work and I'll be killing myself in the next 5 years because all efforts towards achieving even a slimmer of success are utterly futile
>>39038 Hmm, yeah I think that fits better what I was trying to say there. Saying "comparison" alone like that does make it sound like any form of it could be bad, when that's not really the case since you naturally do it when taking cues from others.
>>39036 >Fem!N trying to be coy about her crush on you >she doesn't realize the massive, throbbing adapter gives away her intention >her peg legs slip on her own leaking precum and she accidentally falls into your arms
Image:172608257209.png(803kB, 3410x2222)Current Negev Design Open To Change.png
I've been thinking in my incredibly sleep deprived state due to my bed being infested with Carpenter Beetles. If and when I get the energy or motivation to write again, should Negev take place in a separate continuity than Beretta? She ain't my character by the way, some of you came together and did that one. Just asking cause I don't want to be the one making the big decision Or feel like I'm solely responsible for writing the major greens, cause....I am not good enough for that. I think
>>39023 People say I am a perfectionist. My pov is that I set out to achieve a goal, not go as far as I can. If I don't achieve my goal then I have failed. My time, scarce resources and psychology have gone to waste. It puts thoughts in my heart that contradict the thoughts in my mind. The mind says "We go as far as our efforts take us. Even the con artist earned what he has, just in a different way. This is good. The harder you try, the farther you will go. Throw your everything at your efforts! Murder is a terrible thing because you take everything away from the other person who may not deserve it, and rape is horrible because you violate the other person and leave it with a lifelong scar." But my heart thinks "Best player in the world?! This motherfucker only lucked into some connections! He was built up with corpo money and setting up! That thot is being showered with money and love just because she was born with a vagina! This other successful "businessman" was born into money! That other bitch with the "charming smile" had the money to replace her teeth and get a lipo! That maker/painter is "good" because he has access to all the materials, tools and space that I don't because I am a poorfag! Look at the shoddy work and lack of effort! Do you have any idea what I could create with those tools and materials? These people haven't had a bad day in their lives! They know NOTHING of struggle like mine! The heartbreak, the effort, the working until your fingers bleed! Rape and murder is bad?! Why should I be the only one propping up a system that only puts me in the bottom and perpetual grief while these kinds of people are living la vida buena. Where is my due? I am OWED!" I want to create things and memories in other people that will give them strength and respite in life. But I also want to be famous so I can tell the fortunate scum that I hate the sum of their existence with every fiber of my being.
>>39076 >NTA In some interpretations Beretta is actually a weird flesh monster within a Worker Drone body, when she gets hurt the flesh comes out and attempts to heal, only to cause issues.
>JCJENSON enforces a work from home policy after the first wave of Solver infections >Mandates that all employees take home a Sentinel Drone “just in case” How do you make the most out of the situation?
>>39078 If she sees that, Negev (once she calms down from the knee jerk terror over her sister being a monster too enough to start thinking again) might start wondering if she herself was also a monster all along, and be absolutely destroyed by it if it turns out she's also full of eldritch meat. Might try to submit to Mother's judgment in the hopes of ending her suffering only to learn Uzi's heart also hurts from being an eldritch fleshbeast and wishes it were possible for her to go back to not being one, and reconciliation follows.
>>39079 >"Not guilty!" >The council is astounded by the defendant's confidence but ultimately undeterred. >Their seats move on a rail behind the judiciary deskto allow them to deliberate in a circle. >You can hear beeps and boops, and a few "mmmhs" and "hmmms" (or something analagous to such. They kinda just vibrate sometimes). What little exchange of binary signal you can understand is drowned out by the auditory numbness brought on by your anxiety. >Finally, their conversing is over and their seats jerk back to their original positions. >The bean judges look at you. Their optics ranged from stern and unflinching to sinister (Namely Uzi), sympathetic (V), excited (N, Thad and Cyn), concerned (Khan and Doll) or otherwise just plain bored (Lizzy). >A large jumbotron is lowered down to just above where the all-wise pill babies reside. >VERDWICT: GILTY >.... >Seems their language processing software needs work. >But more over, you're screwed. >PUNISHMENTE: >..... >HORSIE
>"No! Please! Anything but that!" >But it was too late. The remote restraints had already summoned a digi-saddle and a basket atop your back. --- >Suffice it to say, this group baby-sitting session had turned out well, if the giggling and smiling nest of munchkins strapped in on their "steed" was anything to go by. >Still, you'd have preferred it if you had help. And being declared innocent. >Good thing you're apart of the Outpost-3 PTA. >Now if only you could reach your phone without collapsing. Nori would be a godsend. Yeva too.
>Not Alice. >She scared the kids last time she visited.
>>39089 I am highly disappointed with your response, Anon. I was expecting a 5 part greentext depicting the sexual relations between (you) and a Sentinel Drone.
>>39086 I take up sourdough bread baking, make a series of self-sustaining terrariums, and install a bidet. I never got quarantined during the rona so I never got to develop any quarantine hobbies
>>39086 Same thing I did when quarantined in COVID, continue farming and sleep a whole lot, just with a purpose-built protector watching my every move this time
>>39092 /co/ >N: Tessa! You look... good? >V: Horrified silence >J: Disassociating as hard as she can >Uzi: Oh holy crap uh, we can fix this... Probably. How does Tessa feel about tentacles?
>>39093 Finished all the drawings I planned for and now I have to focus on writing. Dunno when it'll all drop, but it might in the weekend. Although I might make a bonus something until then since it's been itching my brain ever since it happened.
>>39076 There was already some talk about Beretta having some unique Solver Stuff going on with her before Episode 8 gave us Solverpede!Uzi, so I think it's safe to say there's at least some degree of Solver Shenanigans going on under the proverbial hood
>>39122 I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you, it took me three hours to figure out how to make a pawn with custom textures and no food need, but if I manage to make something else ill probably post it here
>>39127 No (but there is a mod), its also an unoptimized mess with ass balancing, but I'm scarred to even think about moding dwarf fortress and its arcane codebase
>>39127 NTA, Rimworld technically has an end objective, build or repair a ship to get out of the planet, that's the end of the game, you will have to confront trials and tribulations to do it; I have 861.3 hours and haven't finished the game once, Riwmorld is beside a colony manager and a survival game, a story making game. Yes I have never played Dwarf fortress, so I do not know what adventure mode is, but I hope this answers your question
>>38885 How would things have gone differently if before the events of the first episode Lizzy had brought Uzi into her social circle (because every clique of popular girls needs an ugly friend to make them look even hotter in comparison)?
>>39131 Is it wrong for me to say I wish other artists would retouch on stuff this drawfag has made for better reaction images. This image of Lizzy could be much funnier
>>39131 The way Uzi reacted to the news that Lizzy and Doll were going to dress her up and drag her to prom makes me think she probably would have just disassembled herself.
>>39141 And inevitably, so will Doll once more. Scary angry psychic girl dies and becomes a ghost? She'd want to smooch that The Ring shit even if it was't Babe-a-tron Queenthousand who was the one back as a scary ghost!
>>39119 A hero takes up my mantle. Yours look better, though.
>>39125 Look into Humanoid Alien Races (HAR), it gives you WAY more functionality. It's also janky as hell and makes your load times take forever, but it's worth it for custom limbs and shit.
>>39146 I'm using Asimov as a framework, it lets me make the pawns pseudo automatons and I set up the head so that you can change eye colour whenever you want >Yours look better The body is from another mod (which I use as a base to figure things out) and the head is edited from some art I found online
>>39086 >A Solver Drone breaks into your home. >You watched as that Solver Drone, once thought to be invincible monsters, get bootloop flashed and utterly destroyed by your designated Sentinel Drone. >These drones actually worked as advertised to you by your upper management, that was a first.
>>39152 One minute you’re having pleasant conversation with Harper, getting to know her warm personality. Then the next, she tears through the chest of a Solver Drone and destroyed their core.
>>39147 >I set up the head so that you can change eye colour whenever you want Also a much better interpretation than my horrific system that chose them like hair color. Wish I knew about Asimov when I was starting. My first attempt made them a rework of VFE Androids, but that was horrible all around until I found HAR. I just cannot code worth a damn, and that's where it all fell apart.
>>39162 This is never brought up again. You can excuse Khan abandoning Uzi to die as him being a coward, but you can't explain this without getting to the clear message that Khan was originally a villain.
>>39162 N, V, and J actually did serve the company. It's clear from the fact that J infected N with the virus, and that they received merch as rewards. If it was to trick N. I mean yeah, she would’ve had to endorse the company to a degree but she didn’t have to be be doin allat obsessive stuff, seems out of character.
>>39167 There was always going to be eldritch bullshit, it's just that originally they were going to phase it in instead of jumping into it right away.
>>39165 Khan was absolutely originslly slated as a villain back when SOL was going to be the order of the day. Look at his concept art. He was going to be a Disney-movie disapproving dad "No daughter you cannot be friends with THE ENEMY because they are our enemy and I must kill your boyfriend now"
>>39167 >J infected N with the virus She knew that physical destruction didn't do anything. And on a meta level, they needed the drama of le lethal countdown. >they received merch as rewards. They have magic hands that can produce whatever. >she didn’t have to be be doin allat obsessive stuff "This is a temporary layoff!"
>>39195 >Be at the Klan meeting >"Brothers, there is a nigger among us!" >Either everyone takes his hood off and doxes himself or everyone will have to live in paranoia
>>39212 I don't like it when people do that. For years I've been occassionally writing things to make people uncomfortable because I find their reactions funny. But there's always at least one guy who'll be like "More!" What is wrong with you.
>>39220 I considered it for a bit, but Harper's very pure, and anything like that with her would be the most disgustingly saccharine of gentle femdom that only the most pathetic losers would enjoy.
>>39226 >Harper licks her thumb and cleans a smudge on your cheek >You are annoyed and tell her "moooom!.." before leaving for work >Harper blushes >"Mom?..." >She puts her hands on her cheeks, which are pushed to the sides from her smile >"Me a mom? Oh that sounds delightful!" she thinks to herself
>>39229 I like to think that Harper has s small unintentional allure about her on the outside while on the inside she has nothing but nurturing insticts. And that whenever her charge expresses anything romantic or sexual towards her, she finds it funny or is weirded out.
>>39204 >ghouled by Yvvone, the 11th generation Malkavian Yeah i dont think you would be having a fun time essentally acting as her vitae addicted bloodslave/baby sitter after she has a fishmalk moment in the middle of an elysium infront of the prince
>Harper is almost destroyed protecting you from a DD ambush >She wakes up to the sight of her own ravaged corpse, seen from a couple meters away >You are doing...things to it >Harper panics and hyperventilates even though she has no lungs or need for them >You notice her >"Harper! Don't panic. Everything is okay. Everything is okay." >Harper breathes heavy through her mouth and just looks at you as you walk to her >"What are you doing to me?" she asks eventually >You stroke her hair >"You saved my life today. I am here thanks to you, Harper. But your body...They ravaged your body. I'm sorry they did this to you. I will fix you and make you like new. I promise." >It takes a bit for Harper to process her emotions >She goes from scared to stressed to relieved to grateful to stressed >She cries >She is traumatized and vulnerable but also glad you are safe and relieved that her love for humans isn't misplaced >You are not a species of ingrates who will discard your drone as soon as it useless like the robaganda leaflets say >Over time you fix Harper up >She often nags you to take safety measures, to eat and to sleep >But deep down she doesn't entirely hate that you are putting yourself through this
>>39251 >You grab the bell from James's hands and destroy it >Tessa is dumbfounded >You turn to her >"Tessa! I want you to talk whenever you want to. I want to hear your voice every day. I want to hear your thoughts and your interests and your worries and your laughter. Because I-I love you! I want be with you!" >Tessa gasps, squees and hugs you tightly >"Ohmygosh! I love you too!" >You are the happiest man in the world >James should had beaten you like a servant by now for grabbing something from him, but he doesn't >"You will regret this" he says, his voice coloured with mean amusement
>>39263 Boogi is disappointed at you for just asking weird and unfunny questions over and over. Boogi wants you to try better and perhaps write a greentext or elaborate on the idea instead of fully relying on others to carry it for you
So what's up with the N clones thing? I'm actually upset that never went anywhere, I kinda wanted to see N fighting Pilot N or something. Do you think those clones are still out there? Just mucking about?
>>39278 Honestly same, just seemed like an excuse to bring J back. But, yeah, they probably are still out there. Fucking about in whatever mess Cyn kept them in
>>39282 >>39282 >Oogi betraying a Bugretta That confirms it. YOU'RE NO OOGI AT ALL! YOU'RE SOME WEIRDO HIDING BEHIND THEM! YOU COWARD, BULLY, CAD, AND FIEND! Unhand her Dan Backslide!
Isn't the booru supposed to be for things specifically created by us? Because I just checked it and there's a ton of stuff not from here being uploaded.
>>39263 Unfortunately some people are just spoilsports, which is ironic since the show's main character embraced bueno and it is one of the main driving points of this fandom.
>>39300 I believe its meant to be for archiving anything MD related but it would be nice if there was a tag for things created specifically within the threads
>>39300 Yes. It's specifically for thread ONLY stuff. I'm pretty positive the Booru owner even said that in one of the threads when this issue was brought up
>>39312 Well somebody better stop "tomoetomoe" because in the last couple hours he just dumped like 4 dozen untagged images and a bunch of them seem to be random twitter art
>>39079 >>39090 Had a good laugh from this. >>39182 That tone map is an interesting thought process. Taking notes. >>39210 Amazing. I think your own take on the disassembly drone shape design is pretty sleek. Gorgeous coloring with soft edge lines, fun combination.
>>39362 They all inspire me in many ways. I haven't drawn enough to develop any true style and for them to influence enough, but they inspire me to draw in general. They inspire me to learn and to grow and to one day post my own art for these threads too.
>>39378 sometimes the stars align and I can crank out a drawing without any major complications, but most of the time I end up stuck on a single aspect of the drawing that ends up draining the rest of my day (or week) trying to figure it out.
Or I make the most inconceivably time wasting decisions like not establishing a proper sketch and pushing the issue into the painting stage where it becomes exponentially harder to solve
Since we're sharing art now, here's my drawing of Switch if she were a disassembler. Probably the only thing I feel proud of because the proportions look somewhat alright compared to my previous abominations.
>>39362 Amyanon. I think we started drawing around the same time, and he does more drawing than I do, and especially does more painting, so his works always make for something worth inspecting. I've consulted his stuff on the booru at times, when I was unsure of things like how much blending to do.
>>39381 Why not? Do you think all experienced artists never face a hitch in their creative process? Good days and bad days exist like tides ebb and flow.
>>39381 this drawing took me about a week or so because I didn't clip anything off and just drew everything on one or two layers, which was a horrible mistake. The sketch was also unfinished when I started colouring which made the painting process so much worse. I also just gave up drawing the eyes because I couldn't figure out how to make them look good
>>39387 I don't believe it because you post consistently beautiful artwork like it's no big deal, I would literally need to spend over a week working on something just for it to have 10% the quality of your artwork.
>>39388 >drawing everything only one or two layers Oh man I remember doing something similar in my earlier days, I don't know what possessed me to try and shade things on the same layer as the color and why I kept doing it it for a while, especially with how inexperienced I was at the time.
>>39389 I've got plenty of not-so-beautiful art just lying around in folders that I just never share.. for the longest time my art used to look like pic rel. All I can say is that it takes a fairly dedicated effort to improve, and time (lots of time) for it to become intuitive
>>39381 NTA. That's basically how it works. Sometimes you're in the flow and it goes out in one sitting, or at least major segments of it will get done rapidly and painlessly. Then other times there will be some stupid hangup and then you're grinding and cycling like the Battle of Verdun. Like, in July-August, I completed three Alices, (two painted, two 3Tone), with each pair of painted-3Tone sharing a template. The concepts were more or less of equal complexity, but the first painting was closer to photorealistic and thus probably theoretically harder. The first painting was done over two days. Its 3Tone drawing was done in an afternoon. The second, which I'd wanted to do in two days as well, wasn't finished until a month later (though it was often at the back of the queue). Its 3Tone drawing was done in one night. >>39380 >pushing the issue into the painting stage Yeah. And there's the moments of mortification when you realize you somehow overlooked something major even though you just spent the past [N] hours looking at nothing but the work.
>>39395 The thing is that you at least have something to actually show off, I remember spending over a week working on a Trepang2 fanart piece and I hadn't realized I fucked up the proportions until it was too late. Even after spending over a week rendering it, it still looks like a 7/10 at best.
>>39381 NTA Oh trust me, getting stuck on one issue hapoens all the fucking time. I once spend an hour trying to fix a leg and gave up because i couldn't make it work lmao. And the part about making a mistake early is extremely true. The longer you let a mistake fester the more technical debt you rack up. God forbid if you made a fundimental problem
>>39397 I might have something to show for it now, but for around 5 years I was in your shoes just slaving away at a drawing for hours, not understanding why it didn't look the way I wanted it to, then crying in a corner for an hour. I mean, I still do that now but its less frequent
>>39397 You're gonna suck at drawing before you get better in time. Take a break, going into the studying or drawing process with your head clouded like this ain't gonna help. It's not the amount of time you put into one drawing that gives it quality, it's how much time you've put into studying fundamentals and studying stuff you like before you start hammering out the thing you wanted to draw. If you wanted directions for what to study, you could've asked.
>>39394 my younger self never had the issue because I'd never attempt anything past a sketch or flat colours. Sure turned out to bite me in the ass when I had to learn the proper process from scratch
>>39396 >And there's the moments of mortification when you realize you somehow overlooked something major even though you just spent the past [N] hours looking at nothing but the work. oh yes, its a gut wrenching feeling. Noticing that a arm or leg is way out of proportion only after having finished and rendered a drawing. The Liquefy tool is an absolute godsend in those scenarios (I don't know if I could ever go back to traditional) but there's only so much you can shove out of the way before you realize its FUBAR
Honestly speaking, did I fuck myself over drawing with Paint.net? Considering every other drawing software costs money which I can't afford and Paint.net lightweight enough to run on my laptop, did I screw myself over?
>>39412 I don't know anything about Krita or Medibang but I did saw FireAlpaca on Steam but that costed 37 euros. I'm just looking to draw for fun considering I only got interested into drawing last year thanks to these threads.
>>39411 I'd say the tools you'd want most in an art program would be: -layers -pen pressure sensitivity -lasso/selection tool + transform -the ability to flip the canvas with a hotkey if it checks those boxes you should be fine. But if you want to try something more 'modern' Krita is free and holds up pretty well, I used it for a few years before defaulting to CSP. Also, there's always the option in pic rel
>>39413 It's free off of Steam, most programs have a standard download on the internet. I'd say check out a few of them and see which you like. All the ones I mentioned are free.
>>39416 FireAlpaca ran alright on my old laptop which was plenty earlier and definitely shittier and gave me a decent bit of service. I think it'll be fine.
having N lay on his back, and exploring his body (with his consent)… feeling N’s chest with my hands, the smooth silicone texture, the rising and falling as he breathes, the soft vibrations from his heart beating… feeling N’s tummy, how surprisingly soft and squishable it is, which spots are especially ticklish, every little noise and rumble from inside, the gentle warmth emanating from his body… feeling N’s legs, arms, neck and throat, back, hips, waist, pelvic area, tail, feet and hands, head and hair, face, visor, tongue, sharp teeth… ending it with nekkid cuddling with N…
>>39402 I've tried, I've tried taking breaks, following tutorials, etc. I'm just fucking retarded, I can't make proper use of any tool at my disposal, I genuinely don't even know why I'm trying at this point.
>>39448 >Art tutorials You can watch/read a billion of those and it wont do squat diddly unless you fully understand the material and have the drawing milage to implement it into your workflow. Its a numbers game
>>39450 This is going to sounds dumb, but just write, any idea you have, just write it, if you are ESL or/and have problems with grammar, grammarly is a good tool too.
>>39458 I mean, is the same type of thing as "Just draw". If you don't have any ideas, you can expand little greens you see, ask for ideas, or just spin a wheel with random prompts and characters.
>>39450 Read books on writing. It's massive overkill for greentexting, but I read "How Fiction Works" by the literary critic James Wood and my writing more or less immediately got substantially better and more deliberate. Find examples of writing you like, and analyze them, try to figure out what you like about them, and how they achieved that effect.
>>39452 nta but I think art tutorials are great, and its how I learnt much of what I know now. If I can give some advice, it would be to make the thing you're studying the absolute focus of the drawing. If you're studying human proportions and anatomy, use a simple pose (or just study separate pieces at a time). If you're studying light and colour, draw simple objects minimal noise/texture. Try to avoid doing two things at once, like attempting a lighting and colour study on a human body. Basically you want to funnel all your brainpower into the thing you're trying to learn by making everything else about the drawing as easy as possible, because it'll be difficult enough on its own. Once you start to gain an understanding you can start adding complexity and mix the things you've learnt together (which is its own challenge)
>>39455 But what, if English is not my own language? It's not only task of grammar, but also and understanding the context. You wouldn't understand about quarter of my jokes, if I translate it.
>>39466 Again, if you just want to write greentexts, it's massive massive overkill, not that its contents wouldn't be helpful for any sort of creative writing.
The greentext format is basically a short story format, so those are the sorts of guides you want to look at. But even then, more or less any kind of story can be told with a greentext, so you'd want to look for guides/good examples in the specific genre you want to write.
>>39450 List down your ideas in bullet point form first. Maybe that'll help you see how your idea starts, how it should get to the next thing, how it should end. Once you have a beginning-middle-end for your idea list, you can elaborate on stuff like character description, atmosphere description, location, how many other characters your main talks to/interacts with, etc. The 5W1H (who, what, when, why, where and how) helps. >who your character is (or if there's more than one, who are they?) >what are they doing >when is this taking place (if day, makes sense there's no threat of disassembly drones unless you want to make it that the DDs hunt when it's severely cloudy enough) >where is the story taking place >how do you want the story to end
Got a few ideas for what actually happens if a sentinel drone is able to ingest a decent amount of blood:
>They get INCREDIBLY drunk and/or high in a comedicly unprofessional manner. - >Entire personality swap for a set duration untill they eather pass out or it wears out. - >Horny. - >Immediately attempt to blungen themselves unconscious - >insatiable urge to go pester the nearest enemy >picrelated - Im outa ideas but im sure theres more interesting effect that could happen.
>>39431 No, but I really loved it when the other drawfriend added it I adore other artfrembs intepretations of the characters >>39453 Nah, you will be fine. Nothing painful
>>39475 How long have you put in? It took me three months, several books/tutorials, and a few dozen drawings/projects of varying (generally low) quality before I got to a decent state with my process and skills such that, if I decided on a piece, I could reliably execute it to acceptable quality.
>>39467 Well, writing in other language has the implication of not making jokes that only work in your language, if you want to write jokes you have to learn the language, and if you want to learn how to write in a certain way then you need to read and learn that way.
>>39475 Sounds like you're burning yourself out. People can point you to resources, but it's your time and your mental health is on you. Learn at your own pace, be responsible with your time. >t. been drawing for 17 years
>>39483 Remember if you kill yourself Cyn will just bring you back to life. The ride never ends, no matter how hard you try to get off, you are here forever
Now I'm questioning myself whether or not people enjoy my drawings too even though anons here seem to not care that much. I do enjoy what I do but sometimes the lack of replies makes me think people dislike the state of my art.
>>39488 Let me tell you, if people don't like something they'll let you know if someone likes something, they will not always let you know, if you enjoy what you do, then it should not matter what other people think
Should we create a content creation thread at this point? For complaining, posting WIPs, exchanging/asking for tips or help, begging for feedback, elaborating on process or details of design, etc.?
>>39488 If you want to track engagement metrics, image boards are a terrible place to be. I have a high (not quality-related) threshold for commenting, whether I can think of anything that feels meaningful to me to say.
>>39490 I don't feel like it's necessary but if someone goes ahead and makes one, I'm not against it. This stuff happens very occasionally and art/writing takes time while also being a very lonely personal pursuit. >>39491 Yeah. Stop being addicted to (You)s plz kthxbyeeeee
>>39486 >Cyn will just bring you back to life. The ride never ends that’s why anon is going to kill her, what’s cyn going do? kill him only to revive him afterwards, life and death have no meaning
>>39380 Literally me with 3D modeling, but with the texturing stage in place of the painting stage. It messes with me a lot that I can't produce things consistently.
>>39507 Falling With You Ships aren't my focus when I'm interested in a story, but the song that played in their space conversation, short as it was, it just plucks at my heartstrings. It sounds so... intense and action-y at first but then abruptly quiets down before the melody from Falling.. For You? fades in, a sharp rise and a stop, before that soft voice leads the song again. Man, something magical there. Makes me eyes sweat a little.
>>39504 Yes she will kill (you) and revive (you) later, but due to the fact that you have proven yourself difficult to control (you) will be taught a lesson
>>39526 Lets ask more important questions, for example: Can we train an Unnon to be a suicide bomber and let him loose inside an Oogi hive? How many Unnon Bombers do we need to destroy an Oogi hive
>>39533 Would she still hate other humans with Anon being the only exception? What would make her reconsider? An argument with Beretta where she finally had enough of Uzi badmouthing her boyfriend and having a meltdown?
>>39548 What kind of meltdown are we looking at here? Beretta the cyborg bug monster splitting her drone candy coating apart like Brundlefly shedding Seth Brundle's skin, while Uzi's body lays there like a puppet with its strings cut as a purple eyed Solverpede screams back at Beretta in Uzi's voice?
>>39544 >You venture off into the oogi forest, home to the mythical ugwi, a oogi variant that is 10ft tall and swallows beehives whole for sustenance >And sometimes large animals >Including humans >Hours go by, and besides seeing the occasional regular oogi waddling around, you find no sight of the ugwi >The shimmering sun begins to take its rest, and the Pale moon its wake >The sky turns dark, but.... no sound can be heard, this is strange because oogis typically are awake around this time >Could it be the ugwi makes them far less bold in the night? >branch crack.mp4 >Something is following you >"oooooooooo" your skin becomes like ice at the sound >It is here >And it hungers >In a matter of seconds the ugwi towers above you, its........ its just a really big fucking oogi >"GEETFO HUMIE FWAGGOT!" it bellows >You sprint as fast as your legs can take you, only looking back once to see it slowly waddling towards you >*get tripped upon* >Your face smashes the dirt, sharp pains follow as it turns out you broke your foot >You can only watch in horror as the ugwi lumbers towards you, shouting racial slurs and beginning to flair out its stubby claws >You are never seen from again
>>39562 >Uzi gets brought into Lizzy's friend group as the ugly friend who makes the others look hotter by comparison before episode 1 and Lizzy and the other popular girls end up passing N around and having their way with him
>>39575 Hot take, Murder Drones would have been better served with urban fantasy-in particular teenage vampire romance-autism instead of eldritch autism. Especially if it went emo edgy with it. Uzi and N know they're fucked up in the head and probably bad for each other, but fuck it, they're eternally young, you only live once, let's approach our lives together with the same energy as Thelma and Louise confessing their love for each other then driving off the cliff so the cops can't take them alive.

>>39605 The new fan favourite character has Anon M. Ousky has sex with : V, N, Uzi, Thad, Thalia(Thad), Lizzy, Doll, Doll(Oil Ghost) and finally J after she got put back in a worker drone body as a part of a humiliation ritual. But some more interactions between Khan and Nori and some detail on drone society would also be cool
Image:172616940900.jpg(72kB, 686x1200)THIS TIME I MIGHT JUST DISAPPEAR.jpeg
>>39605 In /an/ episode? Lizzy having a girl's night with her two monstergirl besties after finding out Doll's back as a ghost. In another episode? Uzi's constant struggles, behind her false bravado over how edgy and powerful she is, with the Solver's passive-agressive threats and her misplaced shame over being a Solverpede.
>>39605 >Beginning of the Oil-ghost Doll arc >Scene reminiscent of the opening of E3 >Except instead of sleek and clean red Solver-symbols, everything is done with tarry, amorphous blobs of oil that come seeping out of the darkened edges of the frame
gonna draw picrel tonight since i have nothing better to do, give me a few more requests, maybe I'll be able to pick something that I'll draw sooner or later idk
>>39613 >horror atmosphere is collapsed by the girl this time being Lizzy, who tackleglomps the ominous dark phantom with the red jack-o'-lantern face >>39609 Nori reacclimating to being part of society again as she and Khan heal would be kino.
>>39605 I want a prequel about the creation of drones, the "potentially dangerous mutations" and the reason the proper disassembly protocols were created
>>39638 >the episode is at night because Solver critters can't go out in the day >an homage to the The Raft segment of Creepshow 2 ends with Doll rising from the water, her and Lizzy laughing at how they had everyone going there >Uzi takes advantage of being outside to rotate her Solverpede body into 3-dimensional space so she can appreciate having a sense of touch when she goes for a swim
>Conveniently placed mirrors have helped Cynthia get away with a LOT of crap throughout the years.
>> 38631 Sure, she either took a MAJOR chill pill here or actually staretd opening up and listening to him. I actually had this scenario after the Tessa as a mother green we had a while back so now we have AUs in our AUs. That is definitely not going to get confusing and annoying anytime soon.
I was hesitating to choose between Cynthia (reference to Cyn) or Jennifer (from J, N, and V, JNV) as a name for “Tessa junior” are you cool with Cynthia or would Jennifer have been better?
>>39649 Doll has been creeping around in the shadows for a few weeks, long enough for rumors of sighting her to circulate. Nori spent almost twenty years underground and completely alone. Admittedly, dying bad enough to come back as a ghost in the first place might make the difference slightly less lopsided.
>>39614 thad being a good dad to stacy (being a single father raising a daughter is hard, especially when the mother refuses to take part in the child’s life)
>>39428 Not done yet, but I feel like my eyes are going to crack like eggs from how long I've been staring at the monitor so I'm calling it quits for tonight. This is also the first time I've made a lineless drawing and I've used only two speedpaint videos as reference, but I thing it's going to turn out well.
>Cyn runs into your room and stares at you >Then she reaches for your crotch and flips your dick >Your balls are now on top of your penis >She runs out of the room just as quickly as she came in
>>39657 I take out the 2 litre bottle of apple juice from my minifridge and tell Cyn that she can have it if she undoes the wacky bullshit she just did to my schlong
>>39662 I give Cyn her promised reward, of course she thinks its normal apple juice, but in reality... I filled an empty bottle with this, I even added apple fragrance so she wouldn't find out
>>39648 Sorry to disappoint you but I did not come up with the whole Tessa as a mom thing (https://dronebooru.co/posts/3646?q=tessa_james_elliot+serial_designation_j+ ) and I don’t have any plans for greens regarding it.
>>39645 Also as mentioned here >>39644 (in response to >>38631), this is the scenario where she actually got her act together.Otherwise you would just get Louisa and Tessa 2.0. But why do you think Cynthia makes Tessa being a good parent funnier?
>>39668 Fucker still owes me 15 soulgrinders, if he comes in wining about one of HIS demonengines causing trouble IN MY forge I'm going to leak the location of his shitty crack house to one of the ruinous four so they cane Malal his ass
>>39673 >Uzi hits the gas >Collapses on the floor, is still hitting it >"If the Solver is an AI, why does it have all that meat stuff?" she asks >Cyn silently hands N a sledgehammer
>>39669 Honestly I can see her trying to avoid becoming like her parents thanks to her trauma she would try everything in her powers to avoid a generational trauma
>>39644 >"Mom, I found a busted-up drone, can I keep it and can you fix it up? I'll take good care of it!" >"No, Cynthia, you don't need a drone, we have two in the house already." >"Come on, I only want one, and I'll be really nice, promise!" >Tessa sighs >It can't do her THAT much harm, and she remembers how much they helped her out as a kid >Of course, Tessa's childhood was much different, but Cynthia could use another friend, synthetic or no >"Fine, show me where it is." >Cynthia brings Tessa to an old junkyard, navigating through a maze of dangerous metal scrap >"We're going to have a talk about appropriate places to play after this," Tessa chides as she does her best to follow >"Here he is, mom!" >Tessa stares in shock as Cynthia runs up to the old, junked drone, with its shattered visor and dented body... and familiar white hair >"Mr. N, this is my mom, Tessa!" >"Tessa-a-a?" the drone says through a damaged, tinny voicebox >"N..." >"Wow, it's beee-ee-n a while, hasn't-n't-n't it? I've missSSS- you." >"N, I- I'm so sorry for what I..." Tessa says, tears in her eyes >"Aww, it's ooo-kay. I shouldn't have bother-other-othered you, you were reEEal busy. Oh, how's V?" >"You know Miss V?!" Cynthia says in surprise >"Long story, Cynthia. Here, let's... let's get you home, N."
>>39692 I LIKE BOTH EROTIC DESCRIPTIONS OF V & J PLUGGING THEIR TITS AND PUSSIES INTO THEIR ON-MODEL CHASSIS AND DOWNLOADING THE ASSOCIATED DRIVERS INTO THEIR SYSTEMS
>>38885 >Uzi's HUD flashes red after she eats the black hole as well as yellow and purple >at one point, Uzi's HUD is still purple but has Doll's HUD from episode 7 on it What if Doll is in Uzi's mind palace instead of roaming as a ghost?
>>39697 >>39698 We see her name listed on Uzi's HUD at the end, AND we see her roaming around as a ghost. I think she's in Uzi's mind palace, desperately trying to break out, hence the ghost. She's basically living a parasitic existence attached to Uzi now.

>>39572 The dialogue before he kills Luke in the OVA was fun (I never got around watching the TV series since I heard it veered away a little from the original). The fact that Luke wasn't even really worth unlocking the restriction was just great, to see him take so much pride in his speed only to get his legs blown off (hubris). >"SHUT UP! You're nothing but the Hellsing family toy!" >"A dog for the Church of England not even fit to call himself a vampire, a puppet-" >"SILENCE." >"I'm a dog. Then you're dog food." I know him saying the stuff, having to unlock restrictions is a rule of cool thing but it's so well done and the OVA voice actor lands it well. Sweet, timid maid V personality in a Disassembly Drone body made me smile. We did get a little bit of it in episode 6 when she asks "Did I get it?". I need V with Seras' Harkonnen 2... Or maybe just trying to blend some of the visuals in Hellsing with Murder Drones stuff. The supernatural horror Alucard does is perfect for something, I just need some vibe searching.
>>39405 I should have been me >>39410 Awww I need it >>39424 I too wanna see glints in the woods anf Alice outside... >>39425 Don't believe this, it'll go away on its own totally
>>39756 The series veered away from the manga because the manga had only finished the Valentines' attack when it was done. So it keeps the moodier, more gothic tone of the first half of the manga, before the Nazi vampires get.involved and everything goes completely insane.
>>39763 It's been an incredibly long time since I've read the manga, but I remember not giving a single shit about the story or the characters really; mostly just watching for the cool fights.
>>39772 Thanks very .uch, I hope so too Zimmerit adds a lot of 'liveliness' to an otherwise flat surface, I can't draw division symbols clean enough at that scale anyways so this was probably the best choice...it also adds perspective, not so much on the flat upper frontplate but on the MG bulge, would look weird otherwise and surprisingly it's easy to make it look 3D. would be especially usefull on the turret, tho the Tiger I am using as guidance does have it on the hull only (one from Gruppe Fehrmann, made it alnost two years ago)
>>39779 Ms. /co/ is today if you're in my timezone, tomorrow if not (13 Sept). Mr. /co/ is in October, same date. I'm hoping to have some fun but staying in my lane. I know banter is part of the thing but waifu autists can get overboard. If I get any response on my post/vote for Cyn or Uzi, I'm hitting that hide button.
So I went ahead and tried out FireAlpaca. Holy shit it's hundred times better than Paint.net. Just the simple ability to be able to rotate the canvas was expremely helpful whereas in paint.net I could only make 90 degree rotations. Now I don't have to twist my hand around in uncomfortable angles! Here's a Switch I doodled with FireAlpaca, what do you think?
>>39788 She looks so beautifull...Alice always has something very attractive about herself just by from her colours and shapes alone already, but as soon as weather gets colder and fall (or even Winter) begins it increases so much...unreal
>>39796 The one behind him slipping her hand under his coat. Maybe her other arm wrapped around, pulling the left side back to expose him to the other two? That's not really slight though.
Noon over here, having a little diversion for Ms. /co/. Not sure who the Murder Drones nominations will be but I'll keep my eye out. I'll keep my 'tism in check. >>39796 Some ideas. The blue Mimi on the right undoing his belt or slipping her hand under his jacket while the other blue Mimi leaning in to kiss him or something.
Are these little green suit guys safe to keep around my bugrettas and oogis? He seems to really want to get into my hive. Got him locked in a jar right now.
>>39804 Unnons and Bugrettas do get along very well but not with Oogis since they get jealous of him and will try to banish him. I suggest you put your Bugretta and Unnon in a separate enclosure together away from the Oogis.
>>39804 They're funny little guys. Symbiotic relationships with Bugretta are the obvious one, but if one's not present, they get along decently with the others. >Oogi and Unnon get along well in a Boogi-less hive, he'll basically become one of the hive >They act weird around Enns, as friendly as anything, but it's obvious they want to mlem, which is gay >Cyntipedes seem especially drawn to them, a hive-killing infestation can be stopped by introducing an Unnon who will seek out the Cyntipede, once they meet they just leave together and never come back
>>39809 >>Oogi and Unnon get along well in a Boogi-less hive, he'll basically become one of the hive This is bullshit. Even in a boogi-less hive when I introduced an Unnon, they started calling him racial and homophobic slurs and push him around.
>>39811 Odd. I know Uugi will do that to an upsetting degree, dropping everything to harass a single Unnon night and day. It might depend on overall hive dynamics, or time spent in the hive?
>>39804 How clever are these little guys? He's been trying to knock over the jar for a while now while making this little 'ree' sound. Oh shit, he's shoulder rammin
>>39822 It's almost impressive that he's this mindbroken over a funny drone show, if it wasn't so sad. And it's not even good autism that contributes to the thread.
>>39242 Here’s a couple of things about Harper. >She’s normally more comfortable around Drones than she is around humans. Not because of any sort of traumatic incident or anything, but because she simply feels she relates to Drones better. I say normally because she does have several humans she genuinely cares about a lot. >She has a fondness for movies, video games, and reading books. Usually about Dinosaurs because, and I quote, “I think they’re cool as hell” >She is not responsible for his death >Harper used to wear a little costume back when she worked at an inn. Made her look kinda like Zero Moustafa. While she’s normally too big for it now, she sometimes uses her WD body to dress in it for nostalgia’s sake. Speaking of which…. >She has a secret hobby of wearing pretty dresses in her WD body and acting all Ojou-Sama to herself in the mirror >He forgave her >She ate a sort of pineapple once and the leaves stuck out of her mouth like she was Mr Creosote. As to why she did that, not even she knows. Supposedly it was some kind of sleepwalking incident >Her favorite drink is a Virgin Pina Colada. Made of coolant and antifreeze and all kinds of mechanical fluid. >She does have an extremely mild fetish, but it’s not something she or anyone else around her has seen, discussed, or done with her. If it makes you feel better, it’s not disgusting and doesn’t involve bodily fluids of any sort. It also may be physically impossible.
>>39841 One of the biggest tragedies of no season 2 is the individual that made this never having it beaten over the head just how wrong he or she was.
What was everyone's favorite side-quest/encounter in the Alternate Story Campaign DLC for the Murder Drones RPG? Personally I was a fan the hidden TherapyAnon encounter that shows him hiding in his office from Doll, until later when it's all revealed to be a hologram, you find his corpse cradling Dolls in his last moments.
Mmm. Time zone issue might get in the way but I'll see what I can draw during the tournament. Should the camera eye/eyes and claw be included for this pic?
I would draw some stuff for the tourney, but my ass is locked into finishing the stuff I've already started. Good luck to everyone joining into the frey, though.
>>39861 Finish what you need to do. Prioritize stuff that's important to get done over some silly waifu tourney for fun. If it's work, then it's work. It's no big deal. I don't expect Murder Drones characters to get that far anyway, I just wanted to see what fun I can bring to the event. Have a good one.
>>39857 Don't ask my heart because it's like a very naive client who's going to make big demands to the brain who has to figure out how the hell it's supposed to work the idea out. But eh, camera eyes and claws should be fine-ish since episode 5 was already out (June 9th/10th depending on time zones) so that's the version of Cyn most familiar to the tournament, I think. Episode 7 is March 29/30 2024. Huh, time flies.
>>39879 <(me) More E stuff, Just Kind of messing with the model, testing the Rig's limits, since other then making the Edit, I haven't messed with toxilisk's models much,
>>39897 watching this tutorial just reminded me just how utterly retarded i am and that I've been doing everything wrong for the past 4-something years good vid
>>39936 >They're either happy because they were able to do such a good job making their boss feel good >Or panicking like dumbasses because they think their boss is dying
>>39938 >Lady E had to revive Anon from his heart attack with built in defibrillators as she prayed. >Then she bootloop flashed and kicked the two DDs towards a wall as she yelled at them for their sins.
Whether I'm a man or woman is not important, what matters is my desire to ingest nanite-nut from a cure femboy drone, as is my god given right you corporate spook.
>>39942 Glad to hear these silly gals and guys are a treat to you >”[Mischievous giggle] Do you see that, Eve? It’s your human, completely unattended.” >”Now just walk up to him and say “I want to have fuck with you.” >”W-what? Isn’t that too brazen for me to say?!” >”[Annoyed expression] Did you even watch the HoDR training tape? This fell under Step 2, get a grip.”
>>39961 I really couldn't care less about these contests, but looking at it from the outside, nominating everyone under the sun including a background character whose only popularity comes from the characterization ascribed to her in fan works was a losing strategy. Pick ONE, go full throttle, and remember that it's all rigged anyway.
>>39983 You just know Cyn is inside this tail having the time of her life licking, lapping, slurping, and gulping down every molecule of creamy human milk.
>>39980 Thanks. Posts from here are actually very encouraging. The last time I wrote something it was because of a random post a couple threads back demanding writefags to make something; though I don't think it turned out very good.
>>39989 That's also wrong though. Her whole thing is that she wants to be horny all over someone she's in a committed relationship with, just like in her steamy romance paperbacks, which is why she's such a comical failgirl with that one worker drone.
