nigger

>>52970 No.

why is her ass so FAT

Dave and Bro are the best characters

Not off to a good start I see.

I’ll take the honor of making the first non-shitpost of the thread. Many say that Homestuck should have ended with Cascade, understandably so since it was all downhill from there. Given that cascade exists for the primary purpose of setting up Act 6, how would you change it so you could actually end the comic there?

>>53016 john/jade/jack fight lord english. done.

>>53017 >>53017 That would require a bigger asspull to solve the problem. Maybe Andrew could have made a montage of treasure training time, but I honestly don't see it working. A part of me pictures the Beta kids living their "normal" lives via retcon powers and godtier mergering.

>>53017 Wouldn't it be a bit anti-climatic to beat him so shortly after he was introduced? Especially considering they still hadn't beaten Jack up to that point. Though them "kiteing" Jack into fighting Lord English would be clever. >>53018 I think rather than trying to wrap up the story within the Cascade flash, it would be far more achievable to change Act 6 to be shorter and fix everything wrong with it.

>Make OP for new thread >Someone else makes new thread before you Ironic. Do irony hipsters even exist anymore?

Does anyone remember why the mods at halfchan have such a vitriolic hatred for Homestuck that they nuke threads on sight, or has it all been lost to time?

>>53031 Because of off-topic circle-jerking and porn posting, apparently.

>>53032 Bullshit, if that were true there'd be no threads on /co/ at all.

>>53033 It was pretty bad even by /co/ standards. You can still find some of that original clique sperging out in places like the pornthread to this day. But yeah its been far too long since theres been enough energy in that fandom to cause that level of issue now. But if you think the type to become a mod on 4chan is the type to ever let a sleight go or reasses a decision you can't be helped.

>>53035 Emphasis on the word “was”. Most threads over there these days are 90% porn-dumps

>>53030 >Do irony hipsters even exist anymore? Not in any meaningful numbers.

>>53041 >Most threads over there these days are 90% porn-dumps People don't have all that much to say outside of Homestuck 2 and no one wants to talk about that.

>>53053 You don’t understand, I meant most posts on half/co/ in general. As in: threads on ANY topic are predominantly porn dumps.

>>52970 Cute catmom

>>53056 Oh yeah most people post porn in between watching stuff but the ratio has gone completely out of wack.

If Hussie had learned the term 'stylistic suck' before he learned the term 'irony', I fully believe things would have turned out a lot differently.

>>53018 >>53026 anon asked to end it at cascade. I think that prety much closes the main plots at the time, Jack, LE identity and Jade was still hyped as important/relevant/necessary/strong/sexy

>Someone from 4chan's /hsg/ we had today suggested coming here. >This place seems nice.

>>53067 It's a better site.

>>53067 checked this place out from the same post. very weird setup compared to the 4chan I'm used to but I like there's consistent discussion. I'll try to lurk a bit to learn the culture too

>>53070 >So will I. >Might post my drawings, if they're welcomed.

Kanaya's foreign policy confuses and frightens me.

>>53077 Bro, what foreigners are even in their Earth? their kingdoms are equivalent to states.

Was Wizardy Herbert and Complacency of the Learned relevant in any way?

>>53067 >>53070 Everyone who stayed behind on halfchan is doing so because it's all they know and even if they're aware it sucks ass and the culture is dead, they're too scared to try something new. Really, we should do more to bring people over and let cuckchan die, all those anons have to lose is their chains.

>>53089 >There is a thread up right now, and it hasn't been quashed yet. >Hmmm.

>>53091 >fuck I'm starving >every time I approach this green table I get kicked out and spat on >I could go over there to the red table, it's got steaks and nobody's gonna kick me ou- ooh look, a couple crumbs fell off the green table! >well okay the crumbs are smeard with shit but who cares I'm gonna stay at the green table! You know what, I take it back. Maybe they do deserve it.

>>53078 >HS^2 dont they all start trying to kill eachother for trite drama anyways in that

>>53078 >HS^2 dont they all start trying to kill eachother for trite drama anyways in that

>>53088 >Wizardy Herbert No >Complacency of the Learned Kinda? It's drawing a very vague parallel to the trolls while Calmasis is foreshadowing to Caliborn and Calliope

godammit thread didn't update and dialogue box didnt close out so I hit reply twice. put me up against the wall and execute me for spam.

>>53094 >Kanaya is very explicitly a greenblood >artist draws her with red blush One job.

>>53098 >artist Anon...

>>53099 And I had one job too, it seems.

>>53100 I mean, it's pretty obvious that its AI, right? People have developed a feeling for it these days

>The Thread was quashed. >Damn.

>>53110 I know, right? What took them so long

>>53112 You're welcome I guess. My doodles used to be a lot better before my PC died

>>53113 >Unfortunate. >I would send some money for a new one, but I'm strapped myself. >Everso. >Its Nepeta Day. Time for a Patriotic Nep.

>>53114 Oh, no worries, I've got a new one but I lost all my old brushes, which caused a long break from drawing which fucked with my abilties

>>53115 >What program do you use?

>>53117 I use paint tool sai 2

>>53119 >Very nice. I used to use a bootleg of the first one. Now I'm up to ClipstudioPaint. >I wish CSP had better binary brushes.

>>53122 I'd try and move over to CSP or Photoshop but that will just set me back again and I don't think I want that

>>53123 >Understandable. What are you working on today?

>>53124 I drew something for an alt account earlier. Tomorrow I wanna finally draw some smut for the /aco/ thread and my socials again. Don't know what yet

>>53126 >Oooh. That sounds like fun. I'm doing some of that too.

>>53098 You can correct for blush color with the devil's machine if you want to, or just in post. That one was just an old shitpost I had laying around. Forgot it was Nepeta's independence day though so have a hot dog on a hot cat.

>>53074 I'd really like to see them! I'll post mine to when I start drawing again sometime

>>53126 >socials I get that pretty much everyone uses normalfaggot social media now, but I still wince at the term "socials". >>53078 Troll Will Smith confirms that trolls have races similar to humans. Plus there's eastern alternians. Technically, we don't know if they have asian features or merely speak nipponese, since our only example was depicted in an artstyle where you can't really tell, but given the aforementioned Troll Will Smith I think its. Troll races appear to be unrelated to their blood color though. Always weird it dumb how some people wondered if trolls had ears or noses when its revealed within the first few pages they do. The kind of people who try applying hard speculative-evolution to trolls when they were never intended to be.

>>53144 I always wondered why, if their horns are different colors, why aren't their bones or teeth?

Happy Birthday.

>>53154 YIPPI!!!

>>53144 >>53154 Again, what foreigners are there going to be there when Earth C is controlled and was colonized by a single government? Trolls having different races has fuck all to do with it. On the speculative biology, it is more interesting than canon, so a decent chunk of people just roll with it.

>>53147 Horns are mostly made of keratin. >Earth C I don't care about beyond Cucked, but any new universes created would have aliens in them, so they would be. >it is more interesting than canon I don't know much about the speculative biology autism the fandom has gotten into, but regarding the common 'design' headcanons for trolls, I'd say they're usually shit. Grub scars? Shit. Cow ears? Shit. Most of them result it immensely unappealing designs, especially when combined together. Meanwhile, the standard troll design, not sure if its still canon since Hussie got some artists that draw the abovementioned shite onboard a while ago is pretty strong, and doesn't need any adjustments. I am aware of the "Trolls are literally insects" headcanon though, and can safely say that its retarded.

Uh. We're looking for the chick with big boobs. Heuheuheuheuh.

>>53144 >but I still wince at the term "socials". I don't think I've used the term like that before either. But its much easier to say than list every website I post on (which is only twitter and bluesky but still)

>>53169 Madame Murel has some big breasts, though its hard to tell because her head is even larger. I wonder how many of you have actually read Problem Sleuth

>>53171 I've never finished it. I don't think it hooks you quite as well as HS

>>53173 >He has never experienced SEPULCHRITUDE I pity you. I finished it 3 days.

>>53175 Maybe I'll pick it up again

>>53176 I'd recommend it. Keep in mind I was staying up roughly until 1 am each night for 3 days though; while it is shorter than Homestuck it still has 1673 pages.

thinking about how NOT rushed the franchise would be if hussie's dad didn't die and that game company didn't run off with half the kickstart money

>>53178 >run off with half the kickstart money Wasn't that just a rumor?

It's raining like hell over here. Knowing she's a bit crazy, a bit insane, would Aradia throw on a swimsuit and go dancing in the rain?

>>53180 Pre-Death? She can't afford a swimsuit so she would do it naked. God-Tier? She would dance in the rain but with her god tier outfit, those people never change out of it

>>53179 Nobody really knows. There's credible evidence Huss was just an absolutely dogshit boss to work with and strained the relationship until they didn't have many good options, but even if he's as bad as they say it wouldn't excuse squandering all the money on other shit even if he presented no development plan and left them twisting in the wind. Wasn't what they were given the money for, is fraud. Simple as.

>>53127 Well, I did it

>>53111 >>53112 >>53113 >OC Neato. >>53188 >Beyond Canon OC Disgusting Neato though. >>53183 I guess the question is, do we know they actually spent those funds on King's Quest or did they give them back? I heard Hussie spent the money on Act 7.

>>53189 hussie will say anything to save face

>>53189 >I guess the question is, do we know they actually spent those funds on King's Quest or did they give them back? the game studio barely made any progress on hiveswap while hussie was paying them which counts as stealing the budget to me

>>53192 Wouldn't the claim that he spent kickstarter bucks intended for Hiveswap on an animation for Homestuck actually make him look worse? >>53198 If he actually paying them budget, sure. Was that what actually happened though? Activision would have paid for King's Quest's development, so I can easily see the Odd Gentlemen simply giving Hussie his shekels back and working on King's Quest instead, and Hussie subsequently spending those shekels on the flash animation.

>>53189 >Beyond Canon OC >Disgusting Hey, canonical Meenkat is one of the best parts about hsbc, alright?

>>53207 You could have just drawn regular Karkat.

>>53211 Why? Big buff rebellion Karkat is a good look for him

>>53212 Buffkat was the best thing to come out of HS^2.

>>53212 Still came from BC.

Leijons are good cats, but whose the best cat?

>>53218 Jaspers. Too much troll talk in this thread.

>>53220 He needs a little hat.

>>53220 >Too much troll talk in this thread What else is there to talk about? They have the most sex appeal

>>53227 >What else is there to talk about? Sburb mechanics, The narrative style, Hussie's writing choices both good & bad. Any of the non-troll characters.

>>53228 I like god tier. I think its cool that different characters can have the same associated element (and visual color) while still being very different through their class. It's a really fun system and I love its visuals

>>53229 Its remarkable how Huss was savvy enough to recognize the trolls were a huge draw despite not being big players in his mind initially and make them a bigger focus, but seemed to think there was 0 fan interest worth pursuing in the classpects and Sburb more generally. Despite trying to figure it out being one or Rose's motivations. Hell. Aradia and Sollux reconstructed the program manually and we learn absolutely nothing about it from this. Not even vague shit that never pans out, just nothing period, skipped.

>>53230 I mean, I don't need every single aspect of the game to be explained. Especially Sburb, I'm perfectly fine with what we see. We have enough pieces to be able to know what a "regular" session would look like. But yeah, more things with classpects would have been nice. I think having more active antagonists would have been neat and you could use that to explore certain aspects like Doom more. Plus give Karkat the opportunity to go god tier, c'mon, he's like the main troll

If Sburb Beta has its double square on the top right, Sburb Alpha has its double square on the top left, and Sgrub has its double square on the bottom right, what would have its square on the bottom left? Whatever the Cherubs used, or maybe a Sgrub Alpha?

>>53233 Whatever the ^2 crowd of knockoffs uses when they decide the situation is too fucked to handle and figure that the only way to fix it is to run a proper session of the game instead of the 4 1/2 session rat king abortion that resulted in earth c. With finality terminating all their existences and undoing all Kate fuckery. A man can dream though

>>53227 >They have the most sex appeal Jade's right there.

>>53067 >>53070 >>53074 That was me. Are you guys enjoying your stay here? >>53030 I think it’s kind of funny how you were just minutes away from making your own new thread with your own OP text, only to find out I did it first on the same day that you thought of doing this. We had spent like a whole month and a half with no one making the new thread, everyone still talking in the old one, saying someone should make a new one and shit b ut no one actually committing, while, the rest were just unsure about how 8chan dot moe works, thinking there was a post limit (when there actually wasn’t), and going back and forth on whether it was time to make the new one. And the funniest part is, that same day, there was the update that James "officially" abandoned "Homestuck". Like we even had real news to put in the Opening Post... but I ended up making the thread just hours before that announcement dropped. Just lol.

>>53235 Despite everything, it's still ==> You

>>53235 Jade is cute, not hot. Especially with Karkat

>>53240 I like the idea of jade being the tallest beta kid

>>53231 I do wonder how aspect powers vary depending on the class. John’s windy powers, for instance. Would a knight of wind have different wind powers or the same powers but just use them differently? >>53236 >the rest were just unsure about how 8chan dot moe works, thinking there was a post limit (when there actually wasn’t) It looks like they saw how the gamergate threads on/v/ worked and assumed everything was like that.

>>53243 I think every aspect user has theoretically every aspect power but its all based on personality. Aradia COULD do all the time fighting stuff that Dave does but its just not her personality to be a fighter so she doesn't do it. Likewise Dave could be a caretaker of the dead but that's not in his character

>100 replies we are so back

>>53244 I don't think that makes sense. Aradia has her clones. If she could bounce around time like Dave, couldn't she flood time with her clones?

>>53236 >This place is strange to me. I never ventured outside of 4chan until the blackout, and even then I went to Megidochan for a few days. >This place is nice.

>>53228 >Sburb mechanics For the most part those have been "solved" haven't they?

>>53250 So have all the trolls.

>>53251 But those are characters, "parts of the lore" have a lower lifespan before people give up and say it just wasn't defined. Shit like what other races played the game is a fun discussion but there is at best 2 candidates/hints.

>>53252 What other races do you think played their version of Sburb?

>>53236 >That was me. Are you guys enjoying your stay here? it's quite nice here so far, yeah! thanks for the recc. I'm glad there's a place I can still converse with anons about the comic. I've been working on some stuck-sona doodles for fun too I'd be down to share sometime, if this place allows for cringe stuff like that too I never got around to drawing all the characters in my style and headcanons, but I'd like to sometime

>>53253 Squiddles into becoming the horrorterrors is the usual one that I hear and is fun enough, I don't know about this second one they mention though.

>>53252 Carpacians are also characters, as are humans. How about a discussion that involves trolls but is not limited to them: Disregard Beyond Cancer and everything after act 5. Going off of how the kids/trolls/carapacians handle crest a new civilisation in the new universe? >>53253 This is more of a meta question. In other words, it’s “what other kind of ay lmao race would hussie design”. Sburb npcs aside, we only have two examples. One of which isn’t even meant to play sburb. Trolls are based on internet trolls, Cherubs are based on Lord English who is based on Lil’ Cal. Another alien race, that are actually meant to have some significance instead of being background aliens, would probably be based on some other internet/cultural phenomena and/or mspaintadventures in-joke. Maybe an entire species of juggalo horse furries?

>>53256 You have given me the horrible realization that had Hussie managed to remain separate from the fandom instead of subverted and devoured by it, the logical next internet phenom into alien would be tumblrites. I know Beforans were kind of that but cheaped out and lumped into trolls. So like them but worse.

>>53257 > know Beforans were kind of that That’s the other thing, trolls are named after internet trolls, but their personalities aren’t just based on trolls; they’re based on internet autists in general. To be fair though, most characters are to some extent, so theres no reason why uniclowns couldn’t be tumblrites at the same time as Beforans.

>>53256 >Going off of how the kids/trolls/carapacians handle crest a new civilisation in the new universe? Carapacians are followers for the most part, so they would end up as civil servants like they were during the game. The Kids were too lazy to set things up. Personally, I wouldn't give them credit for how the people of Earth 3 became a post-scarcity civilization. Maybe Mayor or PM get the credit for that because of their connection to community prompts, so Carapacians would be the culture the other species would branch off from using the internet for cultural renaissances (resulting on some weird shit that wears the skin of normal culture from around 2012). Trolls are way too bullshit as a race, even when you lowball them. It is a wonder they didn't become the Hegemons with their millennia-long lifespan and psychic powers. >Maybe an entire species of juggalo horse furries? There is a chance the Squids also represented a player race who became the HorrorTerrors but that was a crackpot theory.

Gentlemen... BEHOLD!

>>53256 A friendgroup of mine did brainstorming for a hypothetical sburb session once and someone came up with White Knights as an alien species who would keep butting into the players private pesterchum debates to defend people in like annoying ways. It was a funny concept

>>53261 CORN

>>53257 Alright then /hsg/, lets design an ay lmao based on tumblr. We'll with a humanoid base. Now reply with your suggestions on what it should look like.

>>53265 I feel like any fan species based on ye olde tumblr has to have a counterpart thats based on ye olde /co/ but that just brings us to cherub territory

>>53262 Thats the type of thing where fans gobble it up trying to figure out what their endgame is and what significance the person theyre defending at a given moment has into endless fan speculation and shipping only for the reveal to be that they don't know themselves either.

Had one more 'merica left over. Too much crocker biscuit for the tin.

>>53254 Cute fanart. >>53255 I'm only on Act 5, Act 2, but Squiddles have sort of disappeared. This would have been a fun twist. >>53256 I've been wondering how Juggalos got into the mix. I wonder if the Carapacians somehow caused it.

>>53268 I'm curious. How did you make this? My friend sends me AI generated drawings now and then and its made me curious.

>>53271 I use civitai, a site which hosts a lot of different models (your stablediffusion etc.) The better option would be to run one locally but that takes a more powerful rig than ive got.

>>53274 Hmm. I'm going to try and make a Vriska.

>>53275 Have fun with it, its a nice toy. There's a couple vriska models for the big 2 checkpoints (pony diffusion and illustrious). I dont care for them overmuch and have considered making my own but they're still fine. Hobbyist quibbles. Don't have many to show since I'm lukewarm on Serket in general but heres her getting her ass slapped.

>>53276 This wasn't so bad. I still prefer drawing but I can see the appeal. Its like ordering fast food.

>>53280 Looks good! And for sure. Its a different tool at best and an amusing toy at worst. The need for a pretty strong GPU to do the really complex stuff is a high enough wall on its own to stop most people's hysterics.

>>53281 I might use it for poses. I never have a good time thinking them up.

>let’s design an ay lmao based on tumblr. >reply with your suggestions on what it should look like. <no one has made suggestions

>>53282 I hear some people like it as an easy way to test or sample colors as well. >>53283 8chan is slower. I liked the White Knight idea so some kind of armor motif would be neat, the more impractical and obviously performative the better.

>>53265 obligatory 3rd eye

Drawing all sorts of things today.

>>53274 Cute Nepeta. Those should be human hands, though.

>>53276 >>53280 this is incredible stuff, not many people get vriska. >>53289 now draw the sequel in which she sets herself on fire and has to take off her clothes (which she enjoys).

>>53292 Nah, drawing some Helluva Boss stuff for a friend.

>>53294 >Helluva Boss I hope you’re drawing each and every last character in that show getting funnelled feet-first into a wood chipper, alongside every hazbin hotel character.

>>53295 Nah, just some pin-ups and stuff. I like the show. Not always but I like the show. Millie's VA is what I imagine Terezi sounds like.

>>53296 The world isn't ready for southern belle Terezi, but it would explain her natural draw toward Dave...

>>53297 I go with Southern Terezi because of two reasons: 1. Chick I knew that was kinning Terezi had a deep southern drawl and I associate the two together. 2. Southern Lawyer Terezi. >"Well, y3r' H4RN$H." *Pulls back on suspenders*

>>53298 >H4RN4H*)

>>53283 It's because there are no visuals that have anything to do with tumblr. Like lets say the idea is a whole species of annoying SJW's, what does that idea look like? Blue hair? Pride pins? It's just not something that really makes sense as an alien species. Trolls work because a troll is an actual creature

>>53298 Oh god youre right. Mental image revised immediately. "W333333333333333LL I M4Y B3 JUST 4 S1MPL3 COUNTRY L3G1SL4C3R4TOR BUT TH4T FR3SH SOUTH3RN 41R M4K3S FOR K33N NOS3S 4ND TH1S WHOL3 C4SE ST1NKS 1 S4Y, ST1NKS!"

>>53269 >Cute fanart. thanks!

>>53254 You've got a good sense of linework. Good stuff

>>53265 >>53284 >>53288 That's a start. What else?

>>53311 I don't think the white knight thing works? Tumblr isn't really known for white knighting

>>53311 Vitiligo

>>53312 All of social justice bullshit is a white knighting routine. I think there should be something covering or impairing the vision of the normal eyes. They don't need to see reality, just whatever the third eye is telling them.

>>53314 Wouldn't the helmet's visor do that?

>>53316 I like your ai slop and I like roxy but somehow ai roxy doesn't do it for me

Clown website. The thread is on for 3 days and almost at 500 replies and THAT'S when you delete it??

>>53319 I thought perhaps they were going to let it slide because it was actually "planned" so wouldn't be a flood. Like we have to fill out a fucking permission slip or something. Anyway, I'll still make a thread for the start of the read-along, though I suppose we can carry it on here (if people are okay with keeping things spoiler-free to where the read-along is.) To anyone who isn't on 4/co/, I had the idea of an organised read-along of all of Homestuck, with people meeting to talk about it up until the point we got to in order to bring in new readers. This is the reading plan: Week 1 (Sat 12th July): ACT 1 and 2 [pg 1 - 758] Week 2 (Sat 19th July): ACT 3 and Intermission [pg 759 - 1357] Week 3 (Sat 26th July): ACT 4 [pg 1358 - 1988] Week 4 (Sat 2nd August): ACT 5.1 [pg 1989 - 2625] Week 5 (Sat 9th August): ACT 5.2 and Cascade [pg 2626 - 4112] Week 6 (Sat 16th August): ACT 6.1 and 6.2 [pg 4113 - 4816] Week 7 (Sat 23rd August): ACT 6.3 and 6.4 [pg 4817 - 5511] Week 8 (Sat 30rd August): ACT 6.5 [pg 5512 - 6242] Week 9 (Sat 6th September): ACT 6.6.1 to ACT 6.6.3 [pg 6234 - 6920] Week 10 (Sat 13th September): ACT 6.6.4 to the END [pg 6921 - 8130] The dates are the start of the parts we'll be reading, so it all starts this Saturday.

>>53317 Different guy. That may be NovelAi rather than civit but I cant tell for sure. Novel uses its own proprietary fork of SD to my knowledge. Very heavy on that sort of 2.5D anime look much AI is fond of. Which is unavoidable but theres degrees lol. Civit at least you can inject things other than that sort of look if you wanna. More western styled or painted looking

>>53317 Im convinced part of Roxy's appeal is anyone can tell how much of a bombshell she's coded to be but the simplistic HS style and sprites act like lingerie and leave it to your imagination. Like the size of Crocker's knockers.

>>53320 >ACT 1 and 2 >ACT 6.1 and 6.2 Anon... plurals.

That's what I get for just building the list around ten lines of ACT and then putting the information around it.

>>53317 She could probably use some more work, I'm still pretty new to this stuff. Doesn't help that NAI keeps trying to turn any Homestuck character into a troll, so you have to put in a whole bunch of negatives just to stop that from happening.

>>53319 It was to piss us off.

>>53322 Ever since I found one cosplayer on Tumblr I have always imagined Jane as basically her. Fat knockers and equally fat ass.

>>53326 You gotta give up on the novelai fren, its just not built for niche or custom things. Unless they start letting people plug LORAs in. >>53328 Bustygumshoe gets us all in the end

>>53329 Part of it may also be because I'm still using v4 instead of 4.5, which produces results more like this.

>>53330 Its more a problem of how it works at a technical level than the version. On an unrelated note i remain terminally mad we never got an iota of what a Mage does. Every class gets magic bullshit i want to know what the one named after it can do dammit

>>53329 My man you know it. Busty is top tier.

>>53329 >Bustygumshoe Who?

>>53333 https://www.imagefap.com/pictures/11547064/busty-gumshoe A darling of old homestuck tumblr. Chubby chick who was good at looking embarrassed to show the goods but did so anyways.

>>53334 >fat chick

Opinion on art that depicts trolls as humans?

>>53336 Its gotta be done well. Black haired Serkets are great, but Blondes? Fantastic.

>>53334 That's the goodstuff.

>>53312 The design is based on suggestions, and somebody suggested “white knight”. Simple as. There should probably also be some suggestions for the coloration of the skin, eyes, hair, other features that haven’t been suggested yet.

Now I want to draw Jane. Thanks guys.

>>53336 That's some good fanart. Too bad most of his other art depicting Homestuck characters is bad. >>53339 >coloration of the skin, eyes, hair Pastel eyes and gold hair, maybe? The Trolls use bright colors.

>>53310 thank you so much. it's a lot of fun I would also like to see stuff other anons have doodled too

>>53311 very nicely drawn >>53313 seconding this but it has an alien skin color like blue (for tumblr) or some shit

Janey. Janey we can see your-

>>53336 I always liked the idea of some sort of theme for humantrolls. for example >air signs are blonde >water signs have black hair >fire signs are gingers >earth signs are brunettes

>>53345 What makes what an elemental sign?

>>53346 water signs: scorpio (vriska), cancer (karkat) and pisces (feferi) air signs: gemini (sollux), libra (terezi) and aquarius (eridan) fire signs: leo (nepeta), sagittarius (equius) and aries (aradia) earth signs: capricorn (gamzee), taurus (tavros) and virgo (kanaya)

>>53347 >Blonde Terezi. Huh. I don't hate it.

>>53348 quick doodle for fun. wasn't sure what type of blonde to make her

>>53349 That is a very nice doodle, I like it. I just drew up a pair, Aradia and Vriska, for someone, but I'm a bit unsure of the rules. Lewd stuff needs to be spoiled, ya?

This is fun.

>>53353 >That is a very nice doodle, I like it. thanks man, it was super fun. might do one more tomorrow >I just drew up a pair, Aradia and Vriska, for someone, but I'm a bit unsure of the rules. Lewd stuff needs to be spoiled, ya? I'm rather new to this site but blue boards operate similarly to 4chan right? I'd just assume it's a sfw board and edit steam or a funny meme over the naughty bits before posting. you can also include an imgur link to the uncensored version in any case anyway

>>53355 cute! really like the way you did her hair

>>53349 >>53355 >>53336 >Homestuck: Beyond... Well, anything weird and it's all normal I guess?

>>53320 you will be hosting this read along here or on 4 /co/ or on another site?

>>53360 I'll be making a thread on 4/co/ for it on Saturday, but it's going to be more of a book club sorta thing than a literal "all on the same page" where we're all doing the same thing. Since this is also for new readers it'd be nice to avoid spoilers, and forcing a general to abide by those rules wont really be fair (unless it has its own thread here?) I'm also considering changing the threashold for various weeks, so that the first week is Acts 1,2, and 3 since it would end in a way that would generate a lot of hype for new readers.

>>53359 homestuck where they're all human and stuck at home because they got grounded for different reasons

>>53362 Story starts on 5942nd of April, 2009. Even time is stuck in an eternal 2009

>>53353 Theres been blatant porn posted before behind spoilers and noone seems to care. Probably so long as it isn't the bulk of the thread or made into a problem there's no issue

Temmie's art style produces some interesting results.

>>53313 >>53314 >>53341 Thanks for the suggestions. How's this? Anything else to add/adjust?

>>53342 >I would also like to see stuff other anons have doodled too This was in the previous thread.

>>53369 We've accidentally recreated Spiral Knights

>>53370 There's always something weird, but also really wholesome, about troll/human families.

>>53347 Redradia does have a draw... (The horns stay on, shes built different. Or a furry.)

>>53359 Homestuck, but they scratched all the way around the disc and made the humans into trolls and trolls into humans. >>53369 Looks neat, but I do think the vitiligo is a little too noisy. It doesnt' fit the single colors of the rest of the cast. Also, would't having a gender symbol on each character's chest be limiting? When I think of white knights, I typically think of people who either have no better reason to be there than to express guilt, or a desire to have power over others, or a desire to play people they're defending against people they don't like, or a desire to not see people upset (even if they're hurting themselves), or a desire to sleep with whoever it is they're defending. The White Knights would, as far as my interpretation goes, butt into arguments between the Trolls and Humans because they want to fuck Nepeta or Jane or whoever else. Just imagine that one argument between Karkat, Dave, and John where Karkat tells them not to racemix because he implicitly wants a harem or that other argument where Present Karkat and Future Karkat white knight Jade over their own insane behavior on repeat.

>>53369 I like it. not a fan of the blonde hair though. maybe try a light grey? how about the pink pants of 3 with the hairstyle of 6 with the blue shade of the 2nd head?

>>53361 sweet, I'll be there! I recently have been re-reading homestuck with a friend who's never heard of it before and he's got some funny theories about what's going on

>>53369 I like this guy. Whose the antagonist?

>>53370 Fucking adorable

>>53370 these are amazing. I like the idea of john growing into a chizzled jaw. and their kids look adorable

You're telling me a boy whose primary weapon is a two handed mace isn't going to get buff and toned?

Out of every kind of AU theory for every eventuality ive seen I don't think Ive ever seen one for how things would have gone had Vriska used Aradia to kill Sollux instead of the other way around

>>53357 A Catbox then, ya?

https://files.catbox.moe/ggxqau.png The lewd drawing.

>>53342 >I would also like to see stuff other anons have doodled too I guess when it comes to doodles instead of fully rendered things I've done a couple of requests in the /co/ threads

>>53413 I remember that thread.It was a fun time. >I want to draw a GHB again.

>>53412 Very nice. Seeing two chars with the same sized tits is almost a novelty. Vriska really thought she'd have the upper hand.

>>53416 I thought of making Aradia a bit bigger, or Vriska a bit bigger, but I thought it'd be funny if they would argue that amongst eachother.

>>53417 Aradia doesn't care in the slightest except that showing off any cleavage results in Vriska buying an even more ill fitting push up bra the next day.

>>53383 well to be fair he doesn't really use it much

>>53419 >Aradia and Vriska having been having a "Whose Bigger" competition since Middle School, both insecure in the fact that they want the other one to fail. >Meanwhile, Sollux and John bump fists, knowing that their girls are both stacked like pancakes.

Thoughts on Big Nep and Smol Karkat?

>>53413 >john, lets fuck >ok... kek, these are all great. I wish the /co/ threads were more allowed

>>53431 curious. state your case

hallo

>>53438 That's a very long tail. But very cute

have you guys ever drawn yourself as a homestuck? just me?

>>53439 haha, yea >>53440 >spoiler post em

>>53363 Okay, I made this joke, and now I'm thinking about Mark Fischer shit and now I kinda want to make this into an actual thing. Not a "time loop" but a sort of cultural, technological, time halt, Not sure about the characters* or the story yet, but I can't escape an idea of Windows XP Service Pack 10 style things. *as in, will it basically be a spin-off entirely of Act 1 only, as weird as that sounds.

>>53431 Equius is the only one who has grounds to be considered "big". The rest of the trolls and kids are probably around the same height and weight. I wouldn't mind headcanons if so many of them weren't making the characters fat flabby and otherwise ugly. Those are mostly just bluesky headcanons, sure, but they taint my view of headcanons overall.

>>53431 Newtypehero aint ever coming back and is mildly psychotic as all artists are but their contributions were a great service to the fandom

>The thread was purged once again. What a shame. But I did enjoy some of its topic. >Chaos Cultists. How did it go? >Khorne: Karkat, Aradia, Eridan >Nurgle: Eridan, Equius, Nepeta >Tzeentch: Terezi, Sollux, Vriska >Slaanesh: Kanaya, Feferi, Tavros

>>53455 They're all gonna be pretty shifty but I'd swap Nepeta and Kanaya. Both for Nep being a heinous furry and Kan being ridiculously hard to kill and willing to sit around in bad situations not making a move.

>>53456 A good point. I will allow this switch.

>>53456 Nep also prides herself on being a mighty huntress which is more dedicated than Khorne's indistriminate slaughter, plus she's obsessed with social dynamicsin general and romance in particular.

>>53455 >The thread was purged once again. You don't say?

>>53461 You're right Vaas. Maybe we should try something different, see if we can convince folks to just come over here.

A discord server where the public area is little more than a contact list and everything has to be one-on-one like old IM clients?

>>53463 >discord server No.

>>53455 Why would Aradia be Khorne instead of Tzeentch? Why is Eridan on the list twice? Would Gamzee be Nurgle or Khorne?

>>53464 Didnt someone post a discord link in the last thread?

>>53455 Could honestly see swapping (Khorne) Eridan and Feferi. She doesn't have much of a character in the story but we do know Eridan did literally everything he did chasing some tail, tail that Fef would not give up unless she actually liked the guy. But she do got the psychokiller Fuchsia genes waiting to bubble up. Do agree on it being a 50/50 on if she'd succumb to hedonism or bloodlust though, so its more about Eridan placement.

>>53471 It was a joke. The invite code spelt out "you're a faggot."

>>53473 Ha.

>>53473 =(

>>53466 >Aradia for Khorne? She's bubbling with unbridled rage to see it all end. >Eridan listed twice. I wrote that after first waking up and lost the plot. It was meant to be Gamzee.

>>53462 why do the 4/co/ threads keep getting deleted anyways?

>>53478 There's lots of theories. At this point it's probably just the monkey-ladder thing, and it's just accepted wisdom to delete Homestuck threads.

>>53479 If I knew how to contact the mods, id ask them why.

>>53480 There's the IRC but they'll probably just laugh at you if you joined to ask them.

>>53480 Why bother? Just bring the party over here, let cuckchan rot away.

>>53481 Maybe just me, but if many joined in and asked, for long enough?

>>53482 I'm liking this place more and more, but I do wish we had a somewhat larger presence. At the very least a /tg/ board.

>>53484 >I'm liking this place more and more, but I do wish we had a somewhat larger presence. Then bring people here, duh. Fun fact, by the way: you can't so much as mention this place on cuckchan because it gets your post tagged as "spam". Even now when we're at arguably our lowest moment they're still fucking terrified of us, they don't want anyone to know about this place. Think about it for a moment. >At the very least a /tg/ board. Boy, do I have good news for you.

>>53485 Ive noticed. That's why I always regard this board as the "Other Chan". They can't use that as a spam filter, that's for sure. If they ever come about to doing that, then we might make an image detailing such. >/tg/ Where?

>>53486 >>>/tg/

>>53487 I am blind, pah. Thank you.

>>53488 (Überprüfen sie diese doppels) You might also want to check out the boards list. I guarantee you'll find something you like somewhere, and besides we have a lot of boards that need a little love such as /bane/.

>>53487 there wouldn't happen to be an artwork/critique adjacent board would there?

>>53490 You betcha: >>>/loomis/

>>53491 >almost every board I need and it's more on topic to boot I'm liking this site more and more

>>53489 No wonder I couldn't find /tg/, it was under /gacha/, and I assumed that was a board dedicated to gacha games.

>>53438 this is adorable, your style is really cute

>>53438 Thank you for drawing this for me.

>>53447 See pic related. >>53437 I like Nepeta and Karkat. I think they're cute together. But I also like the potential of "Karkat remains a manlet" and "Nepeta, the smallest of them all, has a growth spurt and begins huge." Tangentally related to >>53451 but I also like Newtype's depiction of "Big Nepeta/Small Karkat" because, God damn, that stuff is just the butter on the toast. I also had one hell of a RP ages and ages ago that had an Older, Bigger Nepeta and Smaller Karkat in a snowstorm that never left my mind.

>>53492 Look long enough and that "almost" might end up not applying anymore.

I wish I could have been on 4chan when this banger of a scene dropped. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYBzZj7Bddk

>>53447 I don't really like that Equius is always portrayed as this hulking beast of a man because he's still 13. Personally I really like the way he's portrayed in this one paradox space comic because he actually looks like a 13 year old

>>53499 God hes such a dork, I fucking love John.

So, I am unsure of how this type of Chan works compared to 4. Does the thread have a bump limit?

>>53502 Check out this post from the last thread >>53012, they explained it

>>53503 Perfect. Thank you.

Speaking about threads and that, should I make a new thread here for the read along, or should we stick to the general? Obviously sticking to the general would stop there being multiple HS threads in the catalog, but it would also mean new readers might (actually, will) come across spoilers. Are the mods here cool enough to separate a general thread and a themed thread?

>>53505 They're threads for different things, so I'd say go ahead.

>>53505 Could always use the Read Along as the General. List it as Read Along Part II if you're going back to 4chan.

>>53507 >if you're going back to 4chan But why would he want to?

>>53508 Its hard to leave home sometimes.

>>53509 You gotta leave the abusive home someday, or you'll never get better.

>>53479 LAME

Now that we've got some suggestions for 40K out of the way, lets go Battletech. >House Steiner: Vriska, Terezi >House Kurita: Aradia, Sollux, >House Davion: Karkat >House Liao: Eridan >House Marik: lolno one >Concordate: Tavros(Duh) >Magistracy of Canopus: Nepeta(Duh), Feferi, >Marians: Equius, Gamzee

>>53501 > I fucking love John. Me too, man. The thing is I've loved Con Air for ages. so when I read the comic and this kept coming up it was the best thing ever. Like when fat bitches see a weight slider in a game and feel "valid and seen." I was the fat bitch!

>>53516 Hell yeah my guy, hell yeah. I still got it on VHS somewhere.

>>53517 I had it on tape, since I recorded it off the telly. On, either BBC2 or ITV they did this summer blockbuster season where every week they showed an action movie. Another one was Hard Rain but I can't really say I cared about that and taped over it with Die Hard With A Vengeance a few weeks later. Those tapes just went somewhere as the years went by, as these things often do. Nice that you still have it. Do you still have a VHS player?

>>53518 Recording off the TV, man those were the days. We recorded all sorts of things, from Teen Witch to Star Bear. Yeah, I do, but the damn thing is broken. Its helical scan head hasn't spun in close to twenty years.

>Drawing an OC that came to me in a dream. >Realize that she is, for all intents and purposes, Terezi but human. Huh.

>>53520 >Yeah, I do, but the damn thing is broken. Its helical scan head hasn't spun in close to twenty years. Damn that sucks. >Recording off the TV, man those were the days. Yeah. I also had a bunch of pirated movies as well, since my dad knew a guy who did them. I have a weirdly strong foundational memory of the opening of Land Before Time, where the newt thing is swimming around with the bubbles, and a really aggressive tracking, since (as you probably know, but for the youngsters listening to the old folks tell tales) you'd be recording the tracking that the original playback is doing, and any more over the top of that. What was the last VHS you got? For me it was Fellowship of the Ring.

>>53523 We knew a guy too. For $10 he could get us any movie that just came out. How he did it was he'd get into a movie theater pretending to be a fat ass, but inside the fat suit was a camcorder. Good times indeed. For me, some of my foundational VHS memories was the 7th Voyage of Sinbad's opening along with the beginning part of the 1953 War of the Worlds. Fantastic movies. >Last VHS ya got? The last three were, in order: >Fellowship of the Ring on two tapes >Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone >Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The Clone Wars one is special: It came with a sort of recap by C3PO and R2D2 detailing the events of Episodes IV-VI. It was neat.

Imagine... Big cat girls...

>>53496 >But I also like the potential of "Karkat remains a manlet" and "Nepeta, the smallest of them all, has a growth spurt and begins huge." solid case. I kinda like the idea now- especially since nepeta is a natural and strong hunter. also this anon's art >>53438 helps

>>53527 His rendition is most excellent, but I also enjoy larger size differences. Half a head to a full head or so. Granted this is a rather extreme example but I do like it regardless.

>>53526 Be careful how big you imagine such things.There's some real freaks out there.

>>53535 >CG: NEPETA WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU A GIANT. >AC: :33 < magic. >CG: GET THE FUCK BACK TO NORMAL. >AC: :33 < nyo.

>>53376 >>53376 >>53378 >I do think the vitiligo is a little too noisy. I tried simplifying it. >would't having a gender symbol on each character's chest be limiting? It occured to me that the gender symbols originate from the greek planetary symbols. See pic 2. >not a fan of the blonde hair though. maybe try a light grey? >how about the pink pants of 3 with the hairstyle of 6 with the blue shade of the 2nd head? Done Also came up with some DEEPEST LORE. The planet white knights are from is stuck in a late medieval stage of technology & society. This is because most of the "triclops" name pending emit counter-electrical signals that disrupt electronics, thus making it impossible for them to be developed in the first place. This is a defense mechanism that exists to counter their natural predator: The Platypus platypuses are giant monsters on this planet. The black wizards lack this defense mechanism, which made them a target for platypuses. This pressured them into developing advanced technology to defend themselves, resulting in them making electronics and eventually wacky sci-fi technology. Black Wizards view technology as magic, but not in the sense they don't understand what they're doing. They understand how thermodynamics works for example, but view it as a magic system. Basically they just do science and engineering but use magic words to describe it. Black wizards were already disliked for attracting Platypuses, and are now envied for their prosperity. Naturally they dislike the normals in return. They would be the "imageboard user" stand in. The White Knights have a typical medieval society, if that society was tumblr. Those deemed to be the most "oppressed" are . Males are subservient to females & gays as penance for patriarchy. The most decorated white knights are given the chance to mate except this is a lie told to keep them in line, as in reality the white knight race is perpetuated by a single alpha male. I haven't thought of any reproductive or romance weirdness except for them being like orangutans, because of the whole "beta white knight" thing. This would only apply to the white knights though. I was thinking there would be a different race per planetary sign, like a fantasy rpg.

>>53544 I vote for the moon to be a wizard of some sort

>>53485 I tried hiding links in images, but OP was more affective by posting “8 - chan dot moe”. I wonder if he got banned for that.

>>53441 >post em ok but warning it might be too cringe for human eyes: it's sketches of me as a troll and my husbando I've doodled my friends as homestucks too but those are in physical sketchbooks somewhere

>>53446 not too sure what you mean but I fully support wherever you're going with this

>>53547 Oh, this warms my heart to see it.

>>53547 These are wonderful anon

>>53547 Adorable.

>>53534 newtypehero's definitely one of my inspirations. as you said, some of his stuff is a little more than my usual liking but most are just wonderful

>>53559 Sweet Jesus.

>>53544 The gray on their hair is too light, and the neck guard looks too much like a second mouth. Other than that, I think it's all right. I think making each symbol a different race (as in, species) leans too hard against the idea of Sburb. It'd be interesting, however, if each symbol was a different class as in fantasy RPGs. Additionally, I think the "imageboard user" stereotype was already used with the Cherubs and Homosuck, but the archetype of a politically and socially incorrect guy who tries too hard to signal these things to the point that he ends up as no better than a White Knight who likewise simps for a handful of, many times only nominally, politically and culturally incorrect women is real. As for inspiration for Triclopses, do you think the characters should be inspired by all associations with their symbols or planets or just those from the Classical period? >It occured to me that the gender symbols originate from the greek planetary symbols. See pic 2. It'd be funny if a non-White Knight mentioned that the symbols on their chests aren't historically accurate, given how the symbols on Wikipedia are just the modern versions of the original symbols, which are explained in the rest of the article. >Platypuses I like this idea. It fits the humor of Homestuck. >Orangutan Mating I like this idea too. I'd look at Orang Utan Republik for more information. The page on relationships and mating strategies should be of special interest. >>53559 I thought the tail was Nepeta's ass at first.

>>53549 >>53550 >>53558 I'll admit I was a little nervous to show it but that means a lot! I had a lot of fun daydreaming if it's ok with the threads, should I doodle more of these sometime, would you guys like to see them too? of course, I'll be doodling regular stuff like canon characters too like the human terezi doodle

>>53565 Feel free. We need more whimsical goofy bullshit and less irony and fretting over being "le cringe"

>>53559 >Karkat in puberty: Grows one inch taller. >Nepeta in puberty: Grows right inches and three cupsize bigger.

>>53544 >DEEPEST LORE very creative lore dump >no pluto free our boy pluto

>>53376 >Homestuck, but they scratched all the way around the disc and made the humans into trolls and trolls into humans. kino

>>53570 The classical Greeks didn't know about Pluto.

>>53564 >The gray on their hair is too light, and the neck guard looks too much like a second mouth. How's this? >a different race (as in, species) I was more thinking "subspecies". At the very least within the same genus. > I think the "imageboard user" stereotype was already used with the Cherubs and Homosuck So was tumblr with the before trolls. White Knights overlap with tumblr. The association just came naturally because of the 30-year old wizard meme, along with them being the tech users of the planet. Speaking of which, I imagine the kids of this session would get their computers from the wizards, who have created insulated devices they can use without disrupting it. It would be a forbidden-friendship kind of deal. >if each symbol was a different class as in fantasy RPGs I figured each race would all be the same class, e.g. White Knights & Black Wizards. >do you think the characters should be inspired by all associations with their symbols or planets or just those from the Classical period? Not sure. What version of the Zodiac did Hussie use? >the symbols on their chests aren't historically accurate We could use the classical version, but then the Venus symbol wouldn't be as obvious. >>53545 Witches? Or "clerics" maybe if we're going with the rpg classes? I figure they'd be the female counterparts to wizards, so they'd also be able to use electronics.

It's funny going back in the booru and seeing how normal a lot of the shipping art is, before all the weird "they're a gay hetero couple" weirdness started. It really was a different time...

>>53577 People still draw cute non-degenerate art of ships, though? Just not in this artstyle since its not 2012 anymore

the idea that she saw him goof about with his sickles sparking her interest in him wouldn't leave my head

>>53579 Oh that's incredibly cute. I miss peanutstuck

>>53578 Not as often.

>>53576 >What version of the Zodiac did Hussie use? The traditional Western Zodiac. If we're using that, we'll have to add Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Earth would be a tossup. However, I think it may be better to only make the classical symbols for now because of an interesting feature of them in astrology called "essential dignity". In astrology, essential dignity is a concept where the location of a planet in a given sign is relational to its effects. From this, we can draw relationships between the characters. The biggest detriment right now is that Sburb games need an even number of players. We're at 7. Including Earth would bring us to 8. Including Jupiter, Uranus, and Pluto would bring us to 10. >how's this A little lighter would work. Right now, it contrasts too hard with the skin and eyes. >subspecies I see. That makes more sense. It's like the fish Trolls. >Moon Moon is cute. Are her shoes supposed to be the vertical crescent moon seen on Greek gods? >who have created insulated devices they can use without disrupting it. So the kids are using their computers in Faraday Cages? >so was tumblr with the trolls Understandable. I imagine each of the symbols will be a different kind of person who fits the definition of a white knight, despite Venus being the only one who's the one most clearly white knighting. When it comes to the Triclopses, right now we have >White or Orange Witch(?) Female = Moon >White Knight Male = Venus >Black Wizard Male = Mars From what I've read, I think Saturn should definitely be a Rogue, the Sun could be a Barbarian, Jupiter could be a Bard, and Mercury could be a Ranger or a Monk. >>53579 Cute image.

>>53582 I mean, yeah, cause homestuck isn't as popular anymore. I don't think you should compare the cherrypicked findings on the booru with what you see on your twitter timeline

>>53584 I think it's not so much the size of the fandom as just the kinds of people that occupy it. The fandom of the 10s, as full of art hoes and other Harry Potter/Twilight adjacent teens as it was, is very different to the freaks that form the majority of it now. It could have been the same quantity then and now, and the dominant art style would still be different. God, I can't believe things are so bad now that I'm defending Twilight.

>>53577 >>53584 >>53586 johnvris was fun. almost makes me want to re-read it again

Alright guys, it's up. Here: >>53588 There: https://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/149365450

>>53590 >Cuckchan link

>>53594 Everyone's a critic...

>>53590 >404 it's joever

>>53579 This is adorable. Hmmm. Would Marcy be a good voice for Nepeta?

>>53599 I made another thread and that got deleted too. Plus I was banned for breaking the rule that threads must be about comics or cartoons of Western origin. Oh well. Maybe this is going to be a bit of a wash out?

>>53579 Unmitigated Kino

>>53605 It won't.

You guys ever interact with cosplayers? One came into the shop that I haven't seen in years and reminded me of how we met.

>>53615 I went to a few recent cons in homestuck cosplay and met a few others, too

>>53617 There's a Vriska cosplayer In on own that came into the shop today. A real sweetheart.

>>53600 gave it some thought. the old cartoon version doesn't have the fitting cadence, and maybe slightly higher pitch than what i'm thinking about. the 2014 cartoon marcie is a tad nasally. the movie marcie might fit? if adjusted for nep's speaking cadence. or movie peppermint patty (but that's just because i'm a sucker for her) >>53615 man, i wish. the last con i went to was years ago but didn't have homestuck cosplayers >>53618 sounds nice anon

>>53618 Maybe someday...

>purrlease take my question seriously! cats just don't give a shit sometimes and it's funny

>>53635 Karkat later that day

>>53584 >vriska taller than john >fangs so sharp they nip him when they kiss I kinda dig this

>>53635 Adorable. You've got great expressions man.

The 4chan thread is a lot more interesting than I thought it would be.

>>53644 How long until it gets deleted

dicking around with various stylers. its always tough to find something between 'completely flat colors blob' and 'toy story 3D shiny plastic nightmare.' the other one Ive been using is great but its fun to see what comes out better with other styles. more cheesecake than nsfw but spoilered anyway.

>>53646 >more cheesecake than NSFW Anon, come on.

>>53644 The Ur-Homestuck idea sounds real, but there's no source provided.

>>53652 I think it's more a hypothetical. Of course there wont be any proof that Hussie lost his fucking mind, but there's a point, and I think everyone admits this, where Homestuck "becomes" Homestuck, whatever that means to whoever is talking at the time.

>>53646 Do an Aranea

>>53653 Thats around the middle of Act 5 for me.

>>53644 I think this place is a lot more chill than 4chan so I'll just say it here. I really don't understand the issue people have with the dancestors. They're on like four pages that are big exciting playable games, they give us a look into a whole new world and also... they don't matter. So what if you think Rufioh isn't interesting? He'll never speak again afterwards. And then people bring up "oh, Hussie only made them to sell t-shirts" the only one of the dancestors that wears a classic zodiac-shirt is Meenah (because she's the first one introduced, so she follows the fashion of the classic trolls so we immediately get the player vibe). And like, of course there are 12 other playable trolls. The moment Doc Scratch talks about Beforus in Act 5 we know they exist. We know they exist before we know the Alpha Kids exist. You can dislike the dancestors but genuinly hating them to a level where you sperg out in every /co/ thread? They don't have enough screen time to be that hatable. Just admit you have adhd brain and can't spend 15 minutes getting to know a character

>>53657 >I really don't understand the issue people have with the dancestors. Anything that advances or layers Homestuck's creativity is an affront to the savages.

>>53646 have you tried generating them as chibis?

>>53653 Homestuck became Homestuck at Act 1 for me.

>>53661 Shut up and let him destroy the thing you value, anon!

>>53660 Can do, the big nep/karkat earlier was basically chibi if not for the big fat cat tats. Can be anywhere from just cutesy looking to full on animal crossing doll mode, depends what you want. >>53655 Easy quick example. Cutesy but not fully doll-like.Shame Serket loras are pretty much all mid at best.

>>53663 There isn't even an Aranea one that is, what I would call, decent. I've tried using a Vriska one with short hair and it just looks odd. Thank you regardless. she's cute.

>>53254 >>53249 I am deeply happy that you two are enjoying your stay here. I want to make it very clear: NOW YOUR SOUL BELONGS HERE, THIS IS YOUR NEW PLACE!! The contracts have been signed. You will now be here forever, part of the new community being born on 8 chan dot moe. YOU WILL ALWAYS RETURN HERE FROM NOW ON. YOU WILL SEE. >>53247 >We're at 346 replies now Okay, I don’t know if anyone else has noticed, but that’s very fast for how this board usually moves, lol. It took the first Homestuck General 65 days to pass 500 posts. Here, we’ve almost hit 400 in just 12 days. >>53662 >>53658 >>53662 BTW you Verb guy. I wanted to ask you this while I was considering whether or not to comment on something. Did you know about this place beforehand, or did you discover it just since the "Homestuck Read-Along" thing started?

>>53658 Hussie spent too much time on them. The time and energy he spent on one bound could have been spent on progressing the plot. Meenah and Aranea are the only ones who needed fleshing out since they were the only ones who contributed to the plot. >>53657 I never got why the openbound troll sprites were drawn without noses when trolls were well-established as having noses prior and after it.

>>53663 cute chibi aranea requesting chibi dolorosa

>>53667 >I never got why the openbound troll sprites were drawn without noses when trolls were well-established as having noses prior and after it. It's just an artstyle thing

>>53587 Thinking about it the only ships I like, or care about in any way, happen to be the ones that had some basis in the comic. John x Vriska Dave x Terezi Dave x Jade Karkat x Terezi. However, I don’t care for other ships that were “canon”. I guess it has something to do with most of the aforementioned ships occurring with act 1 - 5, or at least having some seedlings of them. People are too harsh on act 6 I think. While it certainly did get bad, it was a somewhat slow decline rather than being instantly worthless. Still, most of the relationships shown throughout act 6 are unappealing to me.

When drawing Jane, should she be just curvy or a bit chubby too?

>>53676 400 pounds, black with vitiligo, arm hair, leg hair, facial hair, and balding That, or anorexic.

>>53677 Ah yes, the Tumblr Special.

kanaya is so lucky...

>>53657 >I really don't understand the issue people have with the dancestors. They are fine but people wanted and expected a lot more from them.

>>53669 mind if i give it a shot

>>53664 yeah its a real shame. Id have made my own Serket one by now if I liked the character more. Almost did for Nepeta but someone did come out with one I like. >>53669 Tricky tricky. Weird outfit to describe. And I'm never sure whether to do actual eyes or not on Rosa but here's a shot.

I thought of making my own LORA, but my machine, its ancient. Its not worth it. Thus, I draw.

Jane dear.

>>53697 Did you make this? It turned out great.

>>53697 Cute

>>53697 keep up the good work anon

>>53666 I've known about 8chan since the Gamergate days but never used it and don't plan to use it now that it's a honeypot like 4chan. Hopefully anons eventually just migrate to ZZZ or whatever.

>>53702 I'm asking about this specific version, Retard. Which is kind of recent, there have been multiple 8chans hosted by different people. In fact right now there is another one with a smaller userbase called 8kun.

>>53703 My balding faggot father knows what 8kun is, you dumbass.

>>53685 nice

>>53704 And you still haven't answered the question, but that kind of already confirms that you don't even know what's going on. Look, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but...the whole idea of a "Let’s Read This" thread involves actually reading the comic and commenting on the pages or segments as you go, adding your own commentary, kind of like a Let’s Play that you "host" except with the added bonus of inviting people to read along and share their own thoughts or reactions to yours. That’s the whole point of the activity. Not just starting a thread, posting something like "wow I’m on page 82!" and calling it a day. The first versions of the thread (versions of the thread that you didn't make, I am aware) didn’t include any kind of commentary or analysis from the OP. IIRC, it was just someone pretending this was totally /co/ activity while the thread quickly devolved into some Homestuck shitposting. Which, honestly, just plays into the perception that 4chan Jannies have of us, that it's impossible to make an actual Homestuck thread without it turning into /Homestuck General/ of the week. The reason I bring this up is because, before the original anon (whoever it was) started the whole "Homestuck Read-Along" thing, we actually had several solid Homestuck threads — with real discussions, story analysis, good shit. Then this guy came along, clearly unaware those previous threads even happened, and did the "Read-Along" thread just because there hadn’t been a Homestuck thread in two days. And as a result, the first few attempts kind of sucked. Now, by pure luck, your thread Verb,turned out much better than the previous ones. You actually got some anons to take the bait and start reading the comic, which was great. I don’t know if it was you who posted that analysis of the page 82 title, but it was solid. Then there was that other anon reading it for the first time who was complaining about how bored he was and ended up saying something about Umineko, that felt GENUINE, which is good. I’m not trying to discourage you, or do a "I only want threads with X level of multi-paragraph effortposts" post policing. That’s not what I’m trying at least. I’m all saying this because the first few of these threads were honestly not very good, and the Homestuck threads that came before this "Read-Along" thing were much better. But, by chance, yours was a big improvement (even though, you didn’t do anything that different from the others OPs), and I think it would be a shame to lose that momentum. When you make effortposts, it encourages other people to do the same and actually participate. And I'm telling you all this because I hope you notice the circumstances in which you are. You can achieve something really good if you get involved in what you are doing here. TLDR; Do that Cytube stream shit or I would made fun of you forever because you gave your money to 4chan to become a premium user and thus prevent them from deleting your thread, LOL

>>53708 Okay! Tell me how to set up a Cytube stream.

>>53657 people had an issue with the dancestors? I really liked them. they were a very colorful crew to play around with and give more homages to their zodiac without completely taking over the plot. their stay was quite short, it's not like they were super intensive to the writing if you didn't like them

>>53720 They were built up as having potentially huge roles but in the end the only relevant ones were Meenah and Aranea. Aranea actually made something happen, and Meenah just sort of meandered around. The rest? Just fluff, and not even filled out fluff.

>>53583 >From what I've read, I think Saturn should definitely be a Rogue, the Sun could be a Barbarian, Jupiter could be a Bard, and Mercury could be a Ranger or a Monk. Concepts.

>>53698 I did! >>53700 Thank you. :>

>>53701 Oh thats adorable. Wish I knew how to animate her hand.

>>53666 >NOW YOUR SOUL BELONGS HERE, THIS IS YOUR NEW PLACE!! The contracts have been signed oh no, I'm falling down another rabbit hole again it keeps happening

>>53735 I told you about Homestuck. I warned you bro.

>>53735 You can't fight the Homestuck.

>>53732 Just draw 2 more frames of her hand in a higher and lower spot and add half life item clipping sfx. Ezpz

>>53739 Oh I know how, I just don't have an animation program.

Vriska. Should she have curves?

>>53708 > I don’t know if it was you who posted that analysis of the page 82 title, but it was solid. That was me, and not the guy you're replying to. That's also what kickstarted the ur Homestuck talk which was super fun to talk about because it feels like a new approach to the comic, rather than just complaining that it fell off at a certain point. Asking if Homestuck became something different in the telling, and at what point did that happen? (it seemed pretty agreed to be that the first three acts were planned for a very different story) I don't expect anything to happen from it, but the idea of sort of conducting archaeology on the first three acts of Homestuck and trying to reconstruct a possible future with that plan Hussie might have had in mind. Another thing that came to mind from that little bit of text under the title card is a sort of immanence. I Think that's why it reminded me of Pantheon, and how it starts with that feeling of "the world has changed..." far more explicitly. >>53748 No. Sticc.

>>53749 Terezi have good hips?

>>53749 (me again) Weirdly enough I think the part of Homestuck that most matches that title page is the epilogues. HS-82: >The streets are empty. Wind skims the voids keeping neighbors apart, as if grazing the hollow of a cut reed, or say, a plundered mailbox. A familiar note is produced. It's the one Desolation plays to keep its instrument in tune. >It is your thirteenth birthday, and as with all twelve preceding it, something feels missing from your life. The game presently eluding you is only the latest sleight of hand in the repertoire of an unseen riddler, one to engender a sense not of mirth, but of lack. His coarse schemes are those less of a prankster than a common pickpocket. His riddle is Absence itself. It is a mystery dispersing altogether, like the moon's faint reflection, with even one pebble of inquiry dropped in its black well. It is the most diabolical riddle of all. >"Absence diminishes little passions and increases great ones, as wind extinguishes candles and fans a fire." -Walt Whitman >Yes, you are certain Walt Whitman said that. One hundred percent positive. >You have a feeling it's going to be a long day. From Candy-36: >A few hours of aimless wandering through the sky brought him back here, to his old house. He hasn’t lived here in years, but it feels exactly as it had when he last left it. It’s like no time has passed at all. John leans back in his dad’s desk chair, stares at the ceiling and listens to the war. >The steady drone of weaponized airships up above has become so commonplace in everyday life that he barely even notices it anymore. But now he focuses, trying to pick out the individual sounds. No matter how hard he tries, he can’t tell which ship belongs to which side, or how many there are. He doesn’t know whether they’re coming or going. Rose, Kanaya, and their daughter are probably up there somewhere by now. >The washing machine chugs along in the next room. In John’s experience, troll blood is incredibly difficult to wash out of clothes. His t-shirt is probably going to be Vriska-colored for the rest of its life. >Somehow, no matter what, he always seems to end up back in this house. It’s been through the Medium and two different universes, and come out of it with only a slight warping to the foundations. Everything is coated in dust. He hasn’t bothered to turn any lights on, or change any of the bulbs that have burned out over the past few years. He thought he heard someone moving around upstairs a while ago, but he didn’t get up to check. He hasn’t gotten up for... how long has passed? He has no idea. Obviously the text from Homestuck itself is lighter and a bit funnier, but I think they're both playing the same notes on different instruments, if that makes sense.

>>53748 Yes, “sticc” is a forced meme made by the same newfags who draw everyone with afros and vitiligo. <but she’s a flat in the comic You mean, like all the female beta trolls? <b-but beyond canon Is bad fanfic. Also their motive for making her flat is that they retconned her into a “her”.

>>53754 > “sticc” is a forced meme made by the same newfags who draw everyone with afros and vitiligo. way I understood it hussie originally had all the characters to have relatively normal builds but then fans kept bombing him with "is feferi fat?" "is vriska fat?" questions till he finally said yes and memed on it

>>53749 >that analysis of the page 82 title Screencap? >it seemed pretty agreed to be that the first three acts were planned for a very different story Do you think the trolls were part of that original story plan? >>53757 Pretty much, yeah.

>>53748 Yes, but small ones.

Nothing will stop me from drawing Titska

There is a thread up, and its Nepeta themed.

>>53763 Yes, you’re posting in it right now.

>>53757 Id imagine any non porn addict comic writer doesn't really think about bodytypes very often if theyre doing any kind of style that can avoid it, like say pixel sprites. Or writing a story unconcerned with something that mundane. Nothing wrong with speculation on what a character's lifestyle might have them looking like from fans who've got a lot more time for that. Porn is porn though. Anyone pretending like they can have 'canon' porn if they screech enough about 'canon' bodytypes (which are armless sprites btw) just seems like weird cope at best and delusional powertripping at worst. May as well do whatever with it.

>>53767 There is a fine line with depicting how someone in a given work ought to look like, and then exaggerating them for pornographic effect. Memes can invoke certain images in people's minds about how a specific character ought to look like, such as "Big Butt Pyrope" or "Sticc Vriska" and the like.

That being said, Vriska Titty

>>53727 These look cool! Aesthetically, I like the top row more than the bottom row, and I especially like Saturn (female). However, I'm partial to Saturn (male) because he looks like an edgy John. Keeping essential dignity in mind, I'm torn between the two rows because I assume Venus would be the equivalent to John, so his relationships and how they fit into the setting would be paramount for the theoretical quest associated with the Triclopses. For instance, Venus's Exaltation is Jupiter's Nocturnal Domicile, but Jupiter's Exaltation is the Moon's Domicile, and the Moon and Saturn's Exaltations are Venus's Nocturnal and Diurnal Domiciles, respectively, while Mars's Exaltation is Saturn's Nocturnal Domicile, and the only time Saturn's Diurnal Domicile comes up is in reference to the Sun, which Saturn is Diurnally in total opposition against, and the Sun's Exaltation is Mars's Diurnal Domicile, and Venus and Mars have opposing Detriments and Domiciles both Nocturnally and Diurnally, and the Moon's Fall and Exaltation are Mars's Nocturnal Domicile and Detriment, respectively, and the same goes for the Sun in reference to Venus's Diurnal Domicile and Detriment.

My tastes change depending on the day but I frequently come back to Feferi as what I heard called Mermaid Mode, drastically bottom heavy but mostly in the hips/thighs not specifically the ass.

>>53727 Oh yeah, these are some cool dudes.

>>53741 Draw two of the frames, save each as png and use ezgif. If not that, Krita's free though I haven't messed around with its animation process.

>>53758 >Screencap? It wasn't that long. Just: >I don't want to get all "youtube video essay" but I think it's interesting that Hussie wrote that page, and had this idea in the year before Arcade Fire's The Suburbs released. I don't think he was making some point about the distance between people in an increasingly digital age, and all that stuff, at least not consciously, but it was there a bit I think when he designed each of the four kid's living arrangements. It could probably be a bit more fleshed out. >Do you think the trolls were part of that original story plan? They weren't in the first pesterchum client under contacts, so if they were thought up early I'm not sure if they were aliens, or if there was even twelve of them? I guess we'll never know for sure, but when I get back to reading it I'll keep an eye out for it.

I like to imagine terezi is thin and perky like her horns. and vriska is tall and lanky like her horns

>>53781 Terezi is described as having sharp features in the epilogue

>>53782 Imagine being John in the epilogue and having her bony ass and thighs bouncing on you.

>>53782 fuck yeah just how I always pictured

>>53781 By that metric we have Tavros as The Fattest Fuck and Aradia as so many curves they're falling over themself. And also there'd be two Sol- shit you're on to something

>>53787 >karkat's facial features are round and his growth somewhat stunted like his horns >aradia is shaply and curvy like her horns >tavros might've grown up to be very sturdy and broad like his horns (fitting as a bull themed page player) had he not been crippled in both body and potential >sollux...well you got the idea before I did >nepeta is short with a roundish face like her horns but an athletic body from hunting. quite cat-like >kanaya has a tall, subtle and elegant body like her horns >terezi is pointy and perky and of average height like her horns >vriska is tall and lanky like her horns >equius is robust but also full of sparring scars like his horns >gamee is tall as fuck and gangly like his horns >eridan would've grown up to be angular and chizzled like his horns (his dancestor has a chin dimple which supports this case) >feferi is a swimmer who and is slightly taut and slim like her horns >their ancestors and dancestors share similar looks to them but not necessarily exact thoughts?

>>53789 Kan's simple and graceful but for that one part that juts out and down on one side... Lowbro jokes aside yeah mostly tracks. I do think Equius isnt meant to be as muscular as his freak strength implies though, always got the impression its supposed to be largely supernatural

>>53789 That's a pretty good theory, and it would make for some good foreshadowing. I might take this up and draw it out.

>>53790 Can you do a femkat

>>53790 >but for that one part that juts out anon noo! >I do think Equius isnt meant to be as muscular as his freak strength implies though in my mind he's not bara levels of built. at least not until he grows up if anything. but that he's more built than the average peer his age I would say >always got the impression its supposed to be largely supernatural been a while since I read but I figured it was the combination of sparring + genetics + the absolute insane mega steroid powerup drinking the milk from his butlerhorse lusus gave him. so yeah in a sense the milk could be considered magical going by hussie's crazed writing though it is also funny to think all lusus milk can get one roided but equius was the only one weird enough to fuck around and find out >>53791 >That's a pretty good theory, and it would make for some good foreshadowing. thanks, man. feels good to finally share all the random headcanons I've had >I might take this up and draw it out that'd be a high honor! I'd love to see it if you get around to it whenever

>>53792 I did a long time ago off similar suggestions of "wears the sweater to hide fat tits" and "angry shortstack" but theyre on the excessive end and its been ages. Any particulars? Build/clothing/pose etc. I just think the ponytail is cute.

>>53793 This might sound weird but I always saw Equius as being not that very buff, at least not in the beginning. His strength comes from his Blue Blood genetics, but hes rather slim. Yeah, everyones got the same bodyshape, but he feels more athletically toned than the rest, albeit with more definition in his arms. That being said, "equius is robust but also full of sparring scars like his horns" gives me a good idea.

Its always weird remembering Terezi's eyes aren't just a flat red or like marbles but are normal eyes scorched into ruined lumps. Probably extremely uncomfortable to look at. Which she likely banks on.

>>53797 Im curious. Are her eyes dead? Why hasn't she removed them?

>>53804 Shes completely blind. Its never addressed how she handled the physical aftermath of going out and looking directly at the Alternian sun for an unspecified period. All we know is that it doesnt take much exposure to their sun to straight kill you, so staring wide eyed into it is sure to be grisly. We also don't know how most medical problems were dealt with on Alternia. Stuff like the robolimbs in the comic were directly fabricated and installed by Equius, a group friend. It would seem if you don't know someone who knows someone youre just fucked. Maybe hiveswap mentions any kind of advertised medical care, surely some troll is doing it to make bank if nothing else. Galactic conquering armies need doctors.

>>53807 I always wondered if she would mind having her eyes removed, and if that would be something she would go for to avoid infection since she can technically see through colors

>>53807 Why didn't Equius give her robot eyes? Was she holding out hope that she'd get her sight back? Did she just like the color of her eyes?

>>53813 She didn't want to. Terezi sees her blindness as something connecting her to her dragon mom and also as an important event between her and Vriska

>>53789 Vriska and Kanaya would have spikes, since their horns have spikes.

>>53815 Could say they're hairs, like a moth or spider might have.

>>53711 Check out my second attached pic. >>53749 >>53752 Well let me tell you, your commentary is very good, please continue sharing your thoughts! I having fun reading them, and it's the kind of content that I feel separates the Threads on 8chun, with the kind of stuff you see on MegidoChan. >>53804 Your post was number 413 in the Thread, congratulations.

>>53796 nah, doesn't sound weird at all. I just mean x is more y than the average troll, not that they have to be extremely out there. I like the idea of blue blood genetics being outrageous like you mentioned I liked picrel's interpretation of him too. he can be about as mucular as this. also I like the idea of him having a long face because of the classic "why the long face" horse joke. why the hell not, right? >gives me a good idea looking forward to it

I also am working on headcanons for how exactly everyone's clothes look- taking a little bit of artistic liberties of course

>>53825 > headcanons for how exactly everyone's clothes look I didn't think there was much room for speculation there.

>>53831 We already know they're all fatter than holy hell. Hussie declared it so.

>>53842 What multiple children does to a sticc.

>>53842 Now make her do her taxes.

>>53843 How the fuck did Jake fumble this

>>53845 She was never actually interested in him. She only wanted his hope powers

>>53846 And his dick

>>53847 I don't think Aranea has shown any sexual desire in the comic. I think she got it all out of her system during her eons in the dream bubbles

Scarves are a very portable snack when you're a Child of the Moth

>>53844 She'd rather be dead again.

>>53817 >Well let me tell you, your commentary is very good, please continue sharing your thoughts! I having fun reading them, and it's the kind of content that I feel separates the Threads on 8chun, with the kind of stuff you see on MegidoChan. Glad someone's enjoying my random thoughts. Something that occurs to me now I've gotten into the part of the story where Rose is starting to play the game with John is what Sburb is as it functions. Without getting into what is revealed later, it almost seems like way to see through the veil, to sort of access the debug options of a reality based on Simulation Theory. The time elements also remind me of the concept of time as a "solid" object that goes from the first quantum moment to the last, and all time exists at once within it, and we just perceive time as we move through it. The sort of "techno-gnostic" elements (as someone in the 4chan thread put it) almost feel backed up by things like the Alchemiter. I know the days of readings like this are numbered as the comic progresses, but at this point it's fun to think about them in this way.

>>53831 like I said I'm taking a bit of artistic liberties with it- such as specific sleeve types to their shirts or skirt lengths!

>>53842 >>53845 >>53850 Hot, now make her fix my life.

>>53846 He only wanted her body, it could have been a mutually beneficial partnership!

>>53842 >>53845 >spiderweb bra and stockings love this idea

>>53854 This would fix me forever.

>>53748 >Should she have curves? I like the flat Vriska meme mostly because I find her envy is pretty cute.

>>53857 It's an extremely erotic concept ::::)

>>53862 You can upload 5 images in a single post.

>>53866 Why anyone would go back to 4chan is beyond me. This site is so much better in every way.

>>53870 There are just more people there, which makes discussion more fun

>>53871 But that's not true.

>>53870 It's because Botchan has more active users (more humans + the bots lol) and everything is faster there. That's all, nothing more. But yes 8chun is superior in every possible way, so it's not even the site's fault, it's the people's fault.

>>53873 Bunch of beaten wives, the lot of them.

>>53848 >Asexual Aranea. Why is that hot to me.

>>53853 Oooh, sleeve references...

>>53871 >discussion And that’s where your argument would fall flat for the vast majority of threads on halfchan. Most of the posts there are barely three word long trite. It’s most famous on 4/v/, but even 4/co/ isn’t much better.

>>53877 4Chan's got like, four main posts, especially on /co/. >Coomers >Deathbattle >WHO IS BETTER?!?! >Clear and obvious bait for the sake of engagement. Occasionally you'll find a genuine thread but those are far and inbetween. Even the actual coomer threads, like Funbag Fridays, barely make it to the post limit anymore.

>>53878 Maybe we should advertise more aggressively and make everyone come over here. Let the ailing patient finally die.

>>53878 It becomes impossible to ignore how compromised it is if you keep track even the slightest bit. Every single post by a real user that isn't someone having a schizophrenic meltdown just feeds that little hope in the back of your head that maybe the 'real' chan experience is still out there, but its cope. Partly by the changed nature of the internet, partly simple age. >>53880 Don't do this. Leading horses to water etc.

>>53880 It will take far longer and far more than just us poking this bloated, cancerous body to get it to keel over. The only thing that can kill 4chan is 4chan.

>>53880 Jannies over there work overtime censoring all mention of 8moe. I think the approach OP did is the best way to get past the radar, at least for now. Jannie’s will notice if you overdo it though.

>>53884 Imo, we should keep Homestuck posting to a low. Lets make another thread in a few threads, see what happens.

>>53880 don't force it too hard or you'll get the bad eggs too

>>53789 >equius is robust but also full of sparring scars like his horns

>>53815 horns are commonly spiky so I just take it as alluding to an average look

>>53792 Took a whack at something more proportionally sensible with the modern know-how. But no Femkat is ever going to dodge the tsundere allegations so lets all make our peace with that from the start.

>>53888 you made him look super cool, great stuff anon just needs more sweat drops kek

>>53895 I mean you're right but you don't gotta shout it onto the message boards.

>feferi is a swimmer who and is slightly taut and slim like her horns See, this has always been my headcannon for Feferi. She lives in the deep sea, shes constantly swimming and dragging large, heavy objects. Either one of two things are going to be a fact here >Deep sea = she needs to be thick with fat(blubber) to stay cool and insulated(The mammal approach) >Deep sea = she needs to be quick and agile, like a salmon or trout(The fish approach). I like the idea of agile and somewhat curvy Feferi, so I'ma go with that next.

>>53899 the middle ground there you're doing is a good idea. I also like your theory aquatic trolls have some amount of blubber

>>53901 Consider this as well. Depending on where the Aquatic Troll lives, thats where some of their physiology comes from. Eridan, being on the sandy beaches and barely touching the water, doesn't build up fat reserves like a deep sea Troll like Feferi might. Hes more active, and thus, would have more toned and athletic muscles, albeit in a relaxed state since hes also a big fucking nerd. Meenah, by contrast, I don't remember her ever swimming in any capacity, and thus would be somewhat sedintary in her life and might actually be the thicker one of the group, before becoming active during her game.

>>53866 >only five >not eight She'd be so disappointed...

>>53903 Can you craft an Aradia? I've been sending your stuff to a friend of mine and she loves Aradia.

>>53904 I hope she enjoys these!

>>53878 You forgot another category: >literally just grabbing screencaps from Shitter

>>53884 >8moe I just realized that we've been neglecting an opportunity. Couldn't we make edits of Vriska and 8moe/Cakechan?

>>53906 This the updated NovelAI? Impressive if so

>>53916 NAI 4.5 seems to struggle with a lot of the same things that 4.0 did when it comes to Homestuck characters, namely symbols (I haven't gotten a single Aradia with an actual Aries symbol) and the fact that anything with a "Homestuck" tag is assumed to be a troll unless you put in a bunch of negatives like "gray skin" and "horns". On the plus side, it takes way less attempts to get horns to look accurate enough, as seen with the Aranea posts above.

>>53903 why does she mog vriska so heavily

>>53919 That was my next thought because the Roses are just kind of a blonde woman with a headband. Still, getting the horns right is always a start and the outfits are way closer. Still doesnt hold up vs actual custom loras but novel is never going to let people have that level of control. They do have some amount of regional prompting going though which is shocking. Should let you do multiple distinct chars way better.

Aranea should've been a permanent part of the cast. If she got the ring of life before Vriska corrupted her into a manipulative villain (even though her motivation was just (Aranea did nothing wrong)), she wouldn't've gone evil and would've been WAAAAAY more helpful then Vriska was. Anything Vriska can do Aranea can do, but just better. All hail Kindfang I love her so much

Who is the best Troll to knock up and why is it Fem Eridan?

>>53925 why would you wanna knock up a femchud when the best troll ever (Aranea) is right there?
