Thread question: What exactly do you look for in a short stack drawing?

Goblin GF
>Pros: You get to cum deep inside Goblin girls pussy
>Cons: goblins have fast reproduction, so you'll be a father within 2-3 months
Is it worth?

>>9005317
>every three months
Imagine the amount of free labour

>>9005317
The secret that the big gob doesn't want you to know is anal.

They get so butthurt about it too.

>>9005365
Some of them really love the hurt though.

>>9005372
For sure. Still, I remember eons ago, when CoC was fresh and new. Switching to anal at the end to make the gob sluts mad was some top coomedy.

>>9005365
>They get so butthurt about it too.
Today I learn Carlos is into butt fucking goblins.

>>9005376
I know they are plentiful around some parts, but you don't even need a very deep analysis to come up with an assumption that goblin butt with a cock in it has more fans than that.

Midna sex

>>9005365
For goblins, anal is nature's contraceptive. They consider anal to be for pleasure but vaginal for love.

I fucking love Goblins and Yordles so much.

>>9006491
Or they'll only consider it after they're already knocked up anyway. The research isn't very conclusive.

We got any dwarves in here

>>9006493

>>9005317
So you're telling me that if we get her a job with more than 3 months of paid maternity leave, she doesn't need to work but still gets paid?

>finally had an artist finalize my idea for OC Yordle girl
>terrified of posting her anywhere

>>9007467
almost nobody comes here anon, it's fine. I think we unironically only have a dozen unique posters by the end of a thread. if you really want to obfuscate the source with minimal effort, all you have to do is flip the image horizontally and add a single pixel of a different color somewhere in the image, and erase or blur the artist name if it's visible

>>9007467
you should post her - we won't tell

>>9006077
I love those two.

Hey do y'all like your goblin gals with normal sized noses or bigger noses??

>>9007921
Prominent instead of the small pointy spike - but not quite half the head honkers

>>9007921
Doesn't matter to me.

>>9007495
>>9007677

>>9007921
Cute little button noses, regular sized ones, long pointy schnozzes, they all have their charm.

>>9008301
She looks like she fucks human men

>>9007921
normal noses, but big ears
>>9008301
neat tanuki! was it intentional for the nips to go from :0 to :D ?

I don't know what you were worried about, this is good shit.

>>9007495
I really should lurk less and post more

>>9008553
Would lick her clean.

>>9008553
>no AI "art"

>>9008372
Agreed. Thanks for sharing anon!

>>9008377
Prob not but I didn't notice. I can probably fix the nips in paint myself

>>9008976
tried to match it if you don't want to bother them for a change

>>9009014
oops I didn't reference the steel ball size from the other side and they got bigger

>>9008796
The other kind of joblin

What are y'alls fav shortstacks from any TV show, video game or movie?

>>9009141
I've lost gallons to Midna.

>>9008719
This looks like the promotional image that someone would use for their 3D model on myminifactory or cults3d

>>9009141
Midna, then Peridot.

>>9008642
you good bro?

>>9008976
oh it wasn't meant as a criticism, I thought it was a cute little detail

>>9009141
Vex ticks alot of boxes for me, a goth shortstack was kinda what I always wanted.

I love the guy :D
Here's his latest post, while we're at it.

Sorry to bother, but does anyone have that "No I'm just a little goblin" comic with the cute goblin girl begging for her life with a knight(?) I've looked through every page on the goblin tag on the shortstack booru and I just cant find it anywhere

>>9010077
I gotchu senpai

>>9010206
>>9010207
>>9010208
Thanks senpai. You da best. Have a gob I found as thank you

>>9008301
>>9010011
some changes, didn't like the tail blending into the thigh

>>9010208
Considering that she's actually trying to cook things, she's probably telling the truth. The height of clan goblin cuisine is, like... a raw rat with all the inside bits still inside. But dead, so it doesn't bite back.

>>9009141
Midna, Rouge the Bat, Betilla and her sisters from Rayman, the Yordles from League of Legends, Peridot, and Marina from Splatoon. I don't play LoL or Splatoon or watch Steven Universe, but I can still enjoy art of the best characters they gave us.

>>9010414
It's more than just the art for peridot for me, it's the gremlin energy. Best encapsulated by this.

>>9010227
Looks good! If I had one nitpick, it's that the tail and skin color seem to share the same pigmentation. Idk if that's intentional, but I would assume the tail is meant to be fluffy, and not like a big gummy worm? Sorry I'm not trying to be rude, I just don't have the right words, lol. If the intent is for it to be fluffy, maybe add a few little tufts of fur breaking up the outline of it, like how there's some on her upper thighs and bush.

Looks really cute regardless!

>>9008301

>>9010614
Yeah looking at the reference, there doesn't seem to be a separate skin colour and fur colour. It's maybe a bit more skin colourish here so I can desaturate it more pale, if maybe that's closer to the intention of blurring the line between being skin looking but still fur.

>>9010735
looks peak my guy

maybe

>>9007921
Cave goblin? Bigger noses
City Goblin after like 2-3 generations? Normal size

>>9010923
>>9010735
probably not what you were thinking but she had to get dressed for church

Saw this in /v/ just now. Could someone make a working QR code using that effect with Midna linking to like, a Midna booru?

>>9010923
>>9011157
Watching the process is always interesting
>>9011191
Wouldn't she be blocking like 90% of the code?
>>9011209
Muh cabbages!

>>9011251
I know I've seen some QR codes with images in them tho.

>>9011191
Not sure about applying the Twilight world "portal" effect with all the right angle blue lines against a black background but it's fairly trivial to put Midna at the center of a blue/black QR code that links to the Shorty Booru from the OP's post. Actually if you have a transparent PNG of a more square Midna image I could mock something up.

>>9011370
Would this work or too basic?

>>9011412
Nah that's fine, here's what it looks like. The biggest issue is really that you have limited real estate in the center to work with and you can't customize the actual QR code look since that's what embeds the URL data in the image. I initially had your image at the center of a transparent PNG I found of a Twilight Princess portal but it just ended up being too small to really see. Though I wonder if a more talented artist could make that same kind of image (Midna+TP Portal) with a readable QR code embedded into it. Personally I'd link to a torrent file of that one Midna collection that keeps cropping up.

>>9011429
Honestly, that's already great. A better image would something like she's climbing out of a portal in center, but yeah. Thanks man!

>>9011429
Is there a guide you can refer for how to make a QR code and what parts you can change in it?

>>9011445
I don't have a guide or anything like that, I just used a free QR Code generator on the net. But from my Comp Sci education I remember that QR Codes are essentially a different type of bar code. Meaning that each black square is one part of a set of information, and alternate colored squares are like the spaces between words in normal English text. So you can make the "spaces" into almost anything as long as you keep the black squares intact. The black squares can in theory be any color, as long as it's the same color for the entire image. As for what you can change about the code itself, in theory a lot. This even includes fragments of the "message" itself, because QR Codes have error-correcting protocols built in. This is why you can put Midna in the center there, even though it looks like it's overlapping parts of the black squares. She is, but it doesn't matter because the rest of the message is intact enough that your phone can make an accurate 'guess' as to what it was supposed to be.

But tl;dr you should be able to generate a QR Code using a program (And you can find those programs on the net) then fill in the "background" with whatever you want as long as you leave enough of the original QR Code pattern intact. What "enough" means might take some trial and error.

>>9008301
think I've posted enough of same images - some changes to make the clothes make more sense and some general fixes over to the other version

https://litter.catbox.moe/ip5nk9qcd9kaajs8.jpg

>>9011456
Nice, I approve of your choice of pants. Though I wonder if you should leave the button undone to emphasize the character's chubbiness.

>>9011453
>The black squares can in theory be any color, as long as it's the same color for the entire image.
The opposite color direction would be better then. Make the image mostly black and add the QR in blue as a pattern at one of the corners of the image. Would be easier to hide it that way I bet with a few more similar shapes and such also around the edges. Maybe a project for another day.

...or... What if it was on her helmet somewhere.

>>9011191
Try if this reads.

I think you could get away with a bit more sprawling if you respect the data block boundaries. Wish there was a generator where you can mess with the masking and other settings to get already better starting points.

>>9012124
the little imp alone

>>9012124
It reads, and looks pretty good. Nice work.

>>9010414
Funny how ALL of them are on my large waifu list. Lets say I mostly love shrotstacks, shy girls, purple hair and milfs.

We both have based taste it seems. Have a purple haired goth shortstack, tis the season after all.

Does anyone know how the catbox loophole works? I found this pretty cute goat furry which I think some of you would like.
Can I like, just add it to a post as a link?

>>9013296
yep, thats pretty much it.
welcome to 4chan.

I've never gotten a ban, didn't wanna start that by breaking board rules lol.
Anyway, here:

I know it doesn't exactly fit the thread, but it's a short cute character so

>>9013304
don't worry about bans, at most they last 3 days, but you're more likely to get a 15-minute timeout (these are new afaik)

Anon pls, starved for content or not, that's gay.
Also, learn to read.

>>9014955
>Two and three are fan art by gobifrip
His art usually has realistic fat, as in, not the idealized stuff that's posted here (not necessarily a good thing nor a bad thing).
I find it weird how manly he made the character (original looks stocky muscled fat, second seems devoid of any fat at all, which on women always looks off).

>>9010227
>>9008301
Pure sexo, nicely done

>>9014537
>>9014538
Whats the deal with Yordles, lore-wise? Sometimes they are gobbos, sometimes they are furries. Not complaining, like at all, just curious.

>>9016009
Magic critters.
Technically all of them are furry.
I think Lulu is the only one who looks human-ish, but she's purple and her model is reeeaaally old, iIrc her newer skins make her look furrier.
The issue is that league lore is all over the place.
Sona still references summoners, something which afaik has not been canon for almost 10 years (there was a lore rewrite).
I think currently there's some magic bs, so what a yordle looks like can vary depending on who sees them.
That means the fat assed, fat tittied versions we love are canon lol.

Anyhow, yordle sex. (can't post images because I'm on data)

>>9016093
Thanks for your reply, good to know fat tits Poppy is sanctioned by Riot.

Any love for WoW goblins?

>>9016795
not particularly, their facial structure is kinda ugly

>>9016795
Much love for WoW gobbos. Blizzard got the mix just right if you ask me. Just feel aggrieved WoW smut artists overlook them for all the boring humans, elves, not-elves and psuedo-elves.

>>9016009
>Whats the deal with Yordles, lore-wise?
Semi-immortal race of magical critters.
Mind you, they come back with their minds still intact

>>9016795
>>9017712
Somewhat. They're not pretty, fey beings. But they certainly look like they can take a pounding and pound it back. They're built for fucking, not love.

>>9016795
I love their racial openness to unbridled experimentation. I also like the voices they use. Of all popular goblins in media, I think they're my favorite. At a full genre level, probably 2nd favorite short stack after imps.

>>9016795
I love them, they're ugly in all the right ways.

>>9017852
Goblin fucktoys need the most love.

>>9019523
Don't know if I'm more frightened or aroused. Definitely both.

I wonder what happened to the creator of this OC, she used to be really popular back during the golden age of tumblr iirc

Well anyway, for those still unaware, TwistingToxic is doing Gobtober this year. Though to be honest, it feels more like Christmas.

>>9022042
Won't fit into a Ryanair carry on. I need daddy EU to step in and protect my right to take my shortstack with me without any extra fees.

>>9023321
Nice
However, I wish artists wouldn't burn themselves out trying to make a gob a day for gobtober, then quit halfway through. They really need to learn to pace themselves, maybe only make two a week at the most.

i like to draw sometimes. kind of an amateur, only spent about 100 hours or so seriously trying to draw. any tips here would be appreciated

>>9023653
If you're looking for legitimate advice on your drawing, that's what >>>/ic/ is for

>>9023653
there is always the drawthread, I'm sure they have better tips than here, but I appreciate you posting here nonetheless. Just off the top of my head, you seem to have a good grasp of basic anatomy, though I would work on the faces and playing with slimming down the proportions. Many artists have trouble with those two things, and end up slacking off on improving them, while also leaning on them as a crutch. This might sound backwards, but they get into bad habits of drawing sameface, and ballooning T&A into bimbo proportions. Counter-intuitively as it turns out, less is usually more with these things. You can go more subtle with the nose and lips, and play around with the size of things.

>>9016009
its whatever riot wants, yordles had their species lore changed the most out of any other thing in LoL. I think one of the guys in charge of lore is a furry so hes been slowly pushing to make them more furry when in the past there was a clear distinction that male yordles are furry and female yordles aren't.

>>9016795
I blame the flirty little gobbo bitch on the Zeppelin tower with the face at crotch hight. Waiting for the zeppelin and thinking about getting head for years(?) on that game did a number to me.
It doesn't help I used to bang this freaky chick that looked like a troll doll but had an insane libido.

Hello /ssg/. Our first game on this current season of divegrass begins today. We are playing against /vg/ so hopefully the little goblin has what it takes to face a very strong foe.
https://pastebin.com/7yXYbFqn
We will be playing second but the games start at 1pm/ the top of the hour. Thanks for your support in keeping Gobbo as one of our golds and let’s start this really hard group on the right foot

>>9029602
The team played well today and we managed to win 6-4. Gobbo got a goal and had her new music play so thanks for that. Our next game will be the last match of the day on Sunday vs /vp/. Enjoy those stacked Mawile’s and I hope to see you there for the next game

>>9029811

The second game of our autumn tournamnet starts in about 20-25 minutes vs /vp/. Shortstacked pokemon with both team with a win happening soon. Let' hope the team does as well as Friday

lookin to make a shortstack in WoW. Any ideas on race? or draw a new one unrelated to WoW

>>9031668
It's gotta be a goblin, gnome, or dwarf right? I haven't kept up with WOW in forever but I don't think they added any other diminutive races since it throws off all the animations.

>>9031725
Last I checked you had Goblins, gnomes, Dwarves, Dark Iron Dwarves, Mechagnomes and Vulpera.
Of those, Goblin, Dark Irons, dwarves and Vulpera (Depending on how furry you are) are acceptable

>>9031641
Our girl played well. The riggers were saying we killed /co/ and are through? Thank you notanon.

>>9031728
>>9031725
yeah just wasn't sure what to choose of the options available

>>9031738
>>9031641
We did end up winning 3-2 and Gobbo helped score 2 goals. We won and are now promoted into the bigger tournament in Winter. and yes our win did kill /co/. /co/ is also our last opponent on Saturday at around 3:40 est. It's our big brother so anything can happen.

This is manilla my shortstack fairy goblin halfbreed (this first image was before i decided on the half fairy part). im not the best at nsfw but like drawing it sometimes i hope people like her

Thoughts on Imps?

This is my OC, Nepheri.

>>9033134
I like them but of all the shortstack "subspecies" they tend to get lumped together with goblins. And it makes sense, they tend to be trickster type characters, they're fantasy creatures, pointy ears, evil in classical depictions, have unusual skin tones, etc etc. Midna stands out but she's a special case. They usually have horns and tails but I feel like that never really gets exploited the same way it does with succubi.

Your OC looks nice though. Did you draw it or get a commission?

>>9033280
I'd explain it by saying imps are sexual, goblins are horny. Imps are trying to entice, goblins are trying to take. Would suggest there is also a type that gives.

>>9033134
Are imps just small tieflings?

>>9033134
Imps, as weak magical creatures, can be bound and be used as familiars. They are pretty mischievous and are prone to getting themselves and their masters into trouble. This is why there is a certain risk when taking on an imp as a familiar: they lack the discipline required for one to focus on their magical studies, and they try to get their master to join them. Just lazing around, eating and drinking, having a good time... and sex. Lots and lots of sex. Imps have curvacious bodies and are not above using them to get what they want, especially when it comes to seducing their masters. They don't mind taking charge, but find it more enjoyable if their master takes charge and pins them down for an intense fucking session. But a master should take care to not let their imp take charge, and woe betide those who actually like being dominated by shorter women.

>>9033397
Nah. Obviously the lore can depend a bit on who's writing it but generally Tieflings are the spawn of a devil or other evil outsider mating with a mortal. Imps are pure devils, and often allow themselves to be summoned/controlled purely to lead the summoner down the path of evil, ensuring their soul goes to Hell after the summoner dies. They can share some visual similarities like horns or red skin but that's purely coincidental and typically confined to devil-spawn Tieflings. Other Tiefling bloodlines can look wildly different, from having more overt animal features to wild mutations.

>>9033280
What would you call something like the one in the OP pic of of the current MMAI thread, >>9029384? Goblin? Imp?

>>9033709
I'd call it slop

>>9033732
Fair enough, but a non-slop character with those kinds of features?

>>9033709
I would consider this an imp. The black sclera kind of tilt it but the major factor is the horns. Goblins don't (generally) have horns. It's a major split between the two prototypical mythological creatures that has been kept even in more pornographic renderings of the myths. But original goblins are basically more mischievous gnomes with fur. They live in the forest and wear felt caps and such. Modern incarnations (Especially ITT) are more like a chubby, voluptuous female Brownie. Imps almost always have horns. Again to go back to the origins of the creature in European myth, Imps were depicted as having deer antlers. Over time, and with the Christianization of Germany (Imps were originally seen as familiars of the pagan Gods) they grew to resemble modern depictions of devils, with the horns and red skin and pitchforks and such. But in this case we see the influence of modern fantasy anime, where demonic characters tend to have very inhuman eye colors, including colored sclera. Goblins can also have these traits but in anime fantasy they tend to have more "normal" eyes. OR they have a kind of fully red eye socket to show their more animalistic nature. But that's how I'd categorize this. Feels a bit dumb to get taxonomically specific about porn but there you go.

>>9033744
>Feels a bit dumb to get taxonomically specific about porn but there you go.
speak for yourself, this is interesting stuff

>>9029440
That actually makes a lot of sense.

Ive been working on a hiatus mini which involves Mrs.Grecht or a character based on her(she's become my shortstack muse as of late). I kinda like the results, first time dabbling in color and krita, its starting to grow on me.

Fucking based. Thank

>>9033617
So then an imp x humanoid child would be an imp Tiefling?

Depends on the exact setting, but technically they'd be a half-fiend since half-fiends and tieflings are distinct from one another, though both share fiendish ancestry. Though I know that Wizards has decided to change the rules for what a tiefling is like, 3 times since 3.5 and each time they do it they make it more convoluted and stupid than just saying "Mortal x Fiend = Half fiend, Half fiend x mortal = Tiefling, occasionally people with fiendish blood in their lineage can pop out as tieflings even if both parents show no outward signs."
Also, as an aside, if we're going strictly by D&D, a half human-half imp would be a half devil

Nice comic, Blood Tiger kinda reminds me of the way they design male heroes in that comic Empowered. Not sure if there's any inspiration there. But man I keep forgetting that Doll is from the Batman mythos.

Thanks anon. I know you didnt ask for more but just in case you're like me and you dont like asking for seconds, here you go. Im putting her in this 'power duo' dynamic like with Tango & Cash but I havent decided on who's gonna be my female Cash, any suggestions?

>>9034841
Man..I really like this page and the way you use movement/gesture. Do you plan to redraw them in digital or add color? I mean they're already killer as is. On that note, blog/website please?

>>9035744
To be clear, this isn't my work.

Its the art of Fred Perry, who is known for making a LOT of 'mundane' comics over the years:

He's just also very unashamed to let everyone knows he draws a LOT of erotica content as well ^_^

I found these pages over at E-Hentai Galleries here:

Oh I see, thanks for the insight though, I really had no idea who that was but thats some damn sweet crisp linework, gallery saved for...later examination. I mean no disrespect to this fine place but It did make me wonder why someone that skilled would come to an /aco/ shortstack thread and share pixels with us mortals.

I wish I were that unashamed about drawing lewds and just put my name on it so boldly, I dont think I could handle it.

Are there any drawfag challenges for Gno ember?

So, /ssg/ what tips would you give for writing a believable romance between a stout dwarf lass and a human man?

>>9037184
Depends on what sort of flavor of dwarf you're doing and their culture. Easiest way would be to play into that, humie has some traits that are considered "Desireable" to the dwarven lass and not really to his own ilk

>>9037184
Interestingly enough I recently had to write a human female/dwarf male romance subplot for a D&D game I was running a while back. I think the important things to understand about romance in general is that more than any sexual tension, the big thing that hangs over romance is uncertainty. There's the initial uncertainty of "Does this person like me as much as I like them?" but beyond that there's also, "Does this person want a real relationship or just a fling?" and all of the questions that come with that. In my case, the male character was a rich and influential playboy type, the young scion of a politically connected guild. Meanwhile the female character was an adventurer who's party had amassed a considerable reputation for being excellent problem solvers for hire. The dwarf kingdom (And the guild in particular) wanted something from the party, and the party in turn needed the kingdom for something else. Their goals didn't exactly align but they still needed to work something out. I found this to be an interesting metaphor for the courtship process as a whole. Were the dwarf man's promises of marrying the lowborn adventurer into nobility sincere or just a play to get her into bed? Were the human woman's affections legitimate or just an attempt to seduce the dwarf to use him for his connections? Neither person really knew, but that's where the dramatic tension came from.

But even without the higher stakes of a fantasy adventure campaign hanging overhead, I think this uncertainty is the key to a more believable romance. It's hard to ever truly know someone else's thoughts and that makes baring your inner feelings scary.

You'd need to describe your settings first my man.

not here, but there might've been some in the past. if you wanted to propose any, go for it! i see no issue with copying any art challenges off of twitter

>Setting
I have been toying around, for a while now, with a Fantasy Wild West setting to pen some stories in. And it's just what it says on the tin. The Old Wild West, cowboys and indians and all that, and dragons dwarfs, elves, orc and so on.
I actually have an idea in mind for the dwarf gal, and the human already.

>flavor of Dwarf
I'm a big fan of the Warhammer Fantasy dwarfs, so something along those lines. By and large, very typical dwarf folk.

>>9037345
>>9037427
I like these.

>>9037459
>By and large, very typical dwarf folk.
When I think of Dorfs, I either think of Tolkien, Discworld or Dragonlance
Only in one of these settings are female dwarfs described as not having full beards

>>9037459
If you like Warhammer style Dwarfs you could have fun. You could invert the Gotrek and Felix stories and have the human as the wild barbarian and the dwarf girl as the wandering skald / adventurer from a rich family, or just make Gotrek female and play it that way. Female dwarfs are typically jealously guarded by their families and holds and how some manling even came close to one could make up a lot of the story. If anything, there could be drinking regrettable amounts of ale, the swearing of oaths (a woman who keeps their word - kind of hot) deepening bonds through battle, huddling for warmth in the freezing mountains, grudge settling and grudge fucking. Whatever it is, make sure it's worth going in the fucking book.

>>9037506
>female Gotrek
You should stop reading my mind anon.
Seriously though, that was the direction I was leaning with this dwarf gal. Not quite as far as a Slayer Oath, but similar.
The long and short of it is, she's an exile from her clan and hold. Her hair is cut short, and kept short, to signify this. Any dwarf who sees her, will know that. It doesn't mean she's outcast from her people, but other dwarfs will be wary around her, and a mournful respect as she's all but cut off from her people. Her name to never be remembered and all that she had done for her clan removed from all their records.

>>9037184
As with basically all romance, it's chemistry. Their personalities have to mesh in some way to make it work. That can be hate fucking to sappy, but the characters need the interplay.

I was working on the plot and story for a dwarf human romance myself a few years ago. The dwarves in setting are essentially 1800's Quebec lumberjacks. At one of the human work camps there is a dwarf who'd been relegated to an empty room cause each barracks only had 4 beds. The new crew of the guy and 2 other NPCs gets put in the room and the dwarf and him end up total bros kind of deal. 6 months of working together, boozing, general industrial camp life shit.
Then there is a forest fire and human dude barely pulls the seriously injured dwarf to safety. He cuts the clothes to stop the bleeding and finds out she's been a chick the whole time. She thought he knew cause it's obvious for dwarves to tell, so continue story from there.

I've told you before, you're not allowed to post the pubeless alt.

Hello /ssg/. Our last game of autumn is happening soon vs /co/. We already won the prize of advancement so this is for fun. Gobbo has scored in both games so let’s see if she can score again
