>It works like a community toy chest. In the /coc/ threads you are free to post whatever ideas/settings/characters you want, but you have to be OK with other people playing with them (tweaking them, putting them in stories, using them for things, etc.)
>There's no guarantee that what you post will catch on either.
>If the OC you are posting is YOURS for something you are personally doing, then it would go to the "How is your webcomic?" threads.
>If you just want feedback on an OC of yours, then it would go in the "donut steel" threads or drawthreads.

-New character: Updraft, we'll see where she goes
-Other stuff I didn't mention
How you hanging coc? It's hot as fuck over here, par for the course but today it feels worse than usual.
>>149289100Same here. We should tally up our heat based villains.
Currently I've been rejected from every job I've applied to so far. It's not looking good.
>>149288308 (OP)Ninjoe Primer still in the works, i should probably put aside more freetime for it.

I'm not doing updates right now, but I made this on a whim, not part of the fan works canon, it's more of a "keep the core premise of making Happy Gert's daughter, but IHF still happens like in the original until like halfway through issue #5" a proper rundown is that now that Gert has her kill-you-so-hard powers she attempts to bury Happy underground, Cloudia saves her, but Gert gets so angry she attempts to kill her, Happy manages to block her attack and save Cloudia but gets her arm injured in the process, now in a last act of spite, Gert will use her full power to kill Happy and destroy Fairyland.

Eh, guess I'll take an afternoon nap, see you guys.
>>149289100It's been raining pretty much nonstop for the better part of June here and now it's back to ballbusting heat again.
Gotta say, I kinda miss it.

Don't die. There's stuff later.
>>149296082>>149296104It is very dead this week for some reason. Like super dead this week. This is below even the lower end of the current trending standards for the threads.
I hope the anon who was drawing the BIGRAC comic(?) from a couple threads ago is still looking to finish it.
>>149296606Goodnight, try not to die, pretty please.
>>149296416>BIGRAC comic(?) from a couple threads agoYou mean GG's bday thread yeah. I'm not too upset it hasn't popped up. I understand things get in the way for some artist which is why I can't get mad at all.
>>149296817And more Donna and her double Ds lol.
>>149296817birthday thread? where?
>>149296817Yeah, life is really shitty right now. More so than usual it seems. As long as there's a thread then we'll probably see it eventually, hopefully.
So anyway, I'm still plugging away at trying to make an outline for the JackHammer Crackdown crossover. I have a pretty good idea of how I want the boat heist to go and now I'm working on how Brad should interact with the team when he gets back and how that could piss off Arthur seeing it.
It would be hard for him to be mad at Jack at this point, he'd be more mad about Brad having friends, or a promising future, or being on the football team and still going out to do crime. Getting mad about that can extend the negative thoughts out to the rest of the team and Jack by association.
>>149297049Thread before last and also last thread. Both had a lot of new GG content for the 10 year anniversary.

>>149296606>cocCan someone explain why there's been an uptick in people on /co/ not writing the slashes lately? Is it a newfag thing?
This week's drawpile, extra wide.
[spoilers]The technical difficulties are only getting worse it seems, I don't know if I'll be able to upload these at this rate.[/spoiler]
>>149299651Could just be lazybess.
>>149299543Not that anon, but if there's nothing to discuss I'll ask a question: which inactive/dead /co/ project do people here remember most fondly?
>>149299971Can you tell what is the reason of your technical difficulties?
>>149300321>can you tell what is the reason of your technical difficultiesSomething to do with clouldflare, pretty sure, I'm dropping packets hard.
>>149299543I couldn't tell you why. Maybe everyone is just tired?
>>149299971Shark Lass looks like she's going off the handle on someone.
>>149299971Now that's a pile, fantastic job by everyone.
>>149300321>which inactive/dead /co/ project do people here remember most fondly?Sadly I'm a dirty newfag, I wasn't here to see all the great tales of years past.
>>149300960>Maybe everyone is just tired?Could very well be, most of the posters here, from what I gather, are older working men with shit to deal with. Beyond that, the threads seem to start slow and dip near death at their start, then slowly get more active as the week goes by. Or am I just making stuff up in my head?
>>149302120Depends on what you mean by older men. As for shit to deal with, yeah, it really, truly sucks right now.
The threads do almost always start with little to no activity though and often require aggressive babysitting to keep them from being bumped off on Sundays.
>>149299971Love seeing Dangerous Vizz up there in the corner. The other Blang Empire admirals don't get as much content and I always wonder what their dynamics with each other (and the twins) are like.
>>149302218>I finally get what sort of character "Dangerous" Vizz is meant to be.>She's the sort of character who would be stuffing her pockets with cakes at a fancy party, be startled when she thinks she's caught, drop a cake, slip on it, tackle someone to the floor on accident and then it's revealed she just incapacitated a dangerous assassin who was targeting both of Blang's kids.>She's the sort who would get her coat tails caught on a turret after giving a speech and in her haste to yank them free, she'd redirect the turret's position right before it is about to fire. The shot goes off into the distance and blows up a hillside where the enemy's elite sniper unit had set up, poised to take out her or someone else high up the chain of command.>The type of person who, when put in charge of a space feet, would retreat into an asteroid belt if she saw she was losing and in doing so locate the enemy's secret listening outpost that had tapped into her fleet's communications and destroy it. Then everyone praises her for being able to find it and assume that her ship didn't communicate their change in position to not leak Vizz's plan.>Vizz is at the shooting range trying to actually learn how to use the various weapons everyone says she's a master of. So far each shot has been a miss, she can't aim worth a damn with how heavy the guns are and how much her grabbers tremble with a tool of death in them. While lining up another shot she hears the door close and realizes someone else is here. In her surprise, she accidentally fumbles her gun, fires a shot at the ceiling which ricochets off of a beam, a wall, then goes through four of the targets from the side perpendicular to how she's facing them. The person who walked in is Axellus and the first thing he says is "Sorry Vizz, I didn't mean to spy on you practicing one of your signature 'dangerous' trick shots."
>>149299651Dose it matter? I just see others do it so I just do the same.
>>149302451>There are probably factions based off of different species as well there. Each of the admirals likely also has their own faction. I can see a cult worshiping Dangerous Vizz which she is either ignorant of or tries very hard to pretend does not exist since the way they formed was due to a particularly awful string of luck on her part involving an accident with a teleporter.>The cult of Vizz is small, but powerful enough to be seen as a rival by Oul's faction, though he personally doesn't see the harm in them.>The teleporter incident I had in mind was as follows:>She tired to escape a diplomatic meeting when things went south with one faction summoning a demon, the teleporter malfunctioned and teleported her INTO the demon, fragging it. So the cultists get showered in demon gore and Vizz is left standing there covered in the viscera with them bowing down to her as their new god. The only thing she was wearing was the blood of the demon at the time (her clothes were not teleported with her), so she finds the entire affair utterly embarrassing to talk about, which is mistaken for modesty.
>>149302475It's like not capitalizing proper nouns. It's not co, it's /co/. It's not coc, it's /coc/. Anyone you see doing otherwise is wrong.
>>149302665Bro, I don't care. I'm gonna call it coc, hate some random anon if you want.
>>149299651adding the slashes on a phone keyboard requires more effort?

>>149303697What if she was super lanky and weird?
I have this really neat re-interpretation of a ton of Marvel heroes.
Felt this would be the best spot to speak about it.
I have re-imagined
>Iron Man, Stane, Detroit Steel, Titanium Man, Killer Shrike
>Hulk, Abomination
>Spider-Man, Green Goblin, Venom
>Captain America (Probably the least re-imagined ngl)
>Wolverine, Jean Grey, Iceman, Cyclops, Magneto, Charles
>Thor
I wish I was a better/faster artist tho
>>149305721Just for a taste, I'll give you what Hulk is.
>Beautiful, with an otherworldly pallor, a perfect physique like it was carved from stone, emerald eyes, lions-mane hair, and a face like David.>He is Banner minus all weakness.>As intelligent as Banner, minus any hesitation.>Entirely detached from any form of ethics or morals. Does what he wants, when he wants, and however he wants. >Even so, he's not a destructive monster. He is the Ubermensch and he knows it. The single most powerful thing on the planet>As a result, he doesn't kill or even harm anyone that often, not out of morals but because he simply doesn't feel like doing it and killing someone would just mean he'd have to kill everyone who seeks revenge or aims to punish him. It's a hassle, one that he knows would be enabled by a human being's basic need for compensation.>Cover art is entirely influenced by biblical or mythical paintings like The Fallen Angel or the Triumph of Samson. John Martin and Hieronymus Bosch also add to it.Hulk I envision as fallen divinity in a metaphorical sense.
>>149302218>The other Blang Empire admirals don't get as much contentI was thinking about drawing something for the others, too. Maybe next time.
Vizz was just the first one to pop into my head (and her design is just cute and fun to draw). I'm a big fan of the Blang setting as a whole but I'm not very good at drawing comics or coming up with larger storylines, so I resort to doodling these little snippets in the piles whenever I get the chance to keep them at least a tiny bit relevant and give them some additional content. Glad to hear that some people take notice and enjoy them.
This is the bump of the night.
>>149289515https://youtu.be/KSoCld6kVKE
Nyxiontus is like the /coc/ equivalent to Frieza in terms of seemingly unchangeable power. This works against him in a meta sense since whenever he is draw in the doodles/drawpiles it's always someone beating him to show how much more powerful their theoretical hypothetical power up is.
That just doesn't track if he's supposed to be someone so powerful that he's grown bored that no one can even challenge him. We have almost nothing established about the space he controls either. I assume it's another space empire where he has people to run things for him and if he doesn't like what he sees, he just kills and replaces them.
So that's an issue. He's a big faction in the space setting, but he's currently a faction of one character.
He needs some underlings, characters who have similar kinds of powers as him, but no where near as strong that he commands. individually they can't beat him, but as a group he can at least play with them.
He should send them out to new planets as scouts. If anyone from the planet can defeat one of them, then that planet has earned Nyxiontus's attention (something you really don't want) and he pays them a personal visit to see if they can put up a fight, or have the potential to produce someone who can in the future.
So no less than three, no more than seven. That's how many direct powerful underlings he needs to fill the drawpile position as designated powerup jobbers.
>>149308394I meant unchallengeable power.
And he would have a pic related type of relationship with them.
>>149302807>>149302665Sorry if I sounded like a dick btw.
>>149306765Kind of.
(another test)
From the latest discussion, I suppose I can dig up this thing I did before my life suddenly became all work. I wrote something too, but then I gave crewmates to Quaslan and I think she only has robots, so I should rewrite those parts.
I can post something though, with the last part done by the author of the Pineapple Cake logs (and of many other scripts). Following the latter's advice, I revised the writing a bit asking chatgpt for help
Blang's voice echoed through the hall of titanium and steel as Old Dag Han stood before the shadowed throne where his emperor sat. "My friend," said Blang, "my upcoming visit to Weird Oul's sector will be extremely taxingโyet you insist on coming. Why?"
A few bubbles drifted up in Dag Han's brain tank. A speaker hidden in his chest crackled. "You see, Captain," he said, his voice laced with a hint of cheerfulness, "I discovered a new cuisine in that sector. Itโs called Psitchen. Supposedly, it delivers the sensation of a full meal directly to the brain."
Silence fell over the throne room. Then, after a long pause, a single, gruttural chuckle echoed. Blang spoke again, more relaxed. "After our latest peace conference with the Pacekeepersโanother one going nowhereโtheir Astarvoran cook made me want to scrape the spice off my teeth. I'm sure they hired him just to test my patience." Blang stood, his voice turning cold again. "Theyโll pay for that, too. When the time comes. For nowโmake preparations. Bring a large bag... for the pamphlets."
"Then Iโll invite you to dinner once we arrive," said Dag Han. "I wonder if they can replicate the soup we used to haveโback when I was still your first mate."
"It would be my pleasure," said Blang. But something in his voice made Dag Han pause.
"Is something troubling you, Captain?"
A guttural sound rumbled from the shadowsโan acknowledgment.
"The Saffron Tournament will be held in a few days," Blang said. "On Crocus."
>>149309953"Ah, yes," exclaimed Dag Han. "You were always fond of Space Saffron. That I remember. Arenโt we joining as a faction this year?"
Blang replied flatly, "No. Thereโs no one left who can prepare what I desire." But then his voice grew livelier. "Still, I remember how I looked forward to the tournament. I was unmatched for yearsโbringing back fame, loot, as if Iโd hauled in all the gold in the galaxy..."
As Blang spoke, Dag Han detected movement behind him. His rear camera zoomed in on the hall entrance. There, peeking through a crack in the door, Quaslan and Tennoc stood entranced.
Had him a mouth left, Dag Han would have smiled to himself.
Blang grew more impassioned, "...the Space Saffron could win you new allies with a single meal. And winning the tournament proved your factionโs supremacy. -I- was supreme. Am I boring you, Dag Han?"
The twins vanished. Caught off guard, Dag Han refocused. "Yes, Captain!" he said, not having heard the question.
But Blang's fire had dimmed. "It doesnโt matter anymore," he said. "Aside from a few old memories, the only thing that still interests me is what Photssh told me: someone brought a speeder built with Uplifter tech at the Tournament. Iโm organizing a mission to steal it. I want to study it."
"Oh," Dag Han replied, distracted, "I'm sure Quaslan and Tennoc are already on their way to Crocus."
Blang blinked. "Really? They know about the speeder?"
"Yes," said Dag Han.
"Are you certain?"
Dag Han wasnโt. He was thinking about the soup again.
"Absolutely!"
>>149309977 (You but not by me)
Quaslan and Tennoc hurried their way down the corridors of The Black Star. Neither wanted to seem like they were in a hurry, but all ship hands knew to steer clear of them when their rivalry started flaring up.
Tennoc was the first to break the silence, "To think that father has such a refined pallet. To win over your rivals with but a meal? How marvelous!"
Quaslan could only scoff at this, "That's what you took away from father's words? Really? Think of the glory, think of the prestige! Think of the money. And father won that little race over and over again."
Now it was Tennoc's turn to scoff in his own flippant way, dramatically tossing his hair back, "Little race? Dear Quaslan, you contradict yourself. No 'little race' could possibly be so glorious. It is an esteemed, time honored event. A focal point of chivalrous sportsmanship, all united in their need to prove themselves the better of their rivals."
"There you go again oozing out frivolous nonsense with that slug tongue of yours."
The two of them began to walk faster, trying to over take the other, elbowing each other down the long corridor until they came to a fork leading to their respective hangers. With a slight bow Tennoc began walking backwards towards his personal hangar "I shall see you on the race track."
"You'll only be seeing my dust!" Quaslan screamed back as she stomped her way to her own hanger.
>>149309953I hope you heavily modified whatever changes it spat back at you.
Funny since I remembered this earlier as well when reposting the Dangerous Vizz stuff I had come up with years ago.

Hello there /coc/
Preparing something for this week's Dynamo Greens!
>>149316820Damn anon, nice job.
Very happy to see somebody being so active with OC around these parts.
>>149317306Well, since I discovered it, this place has been nothing short of amicable and everybody is well-mannered, I'm only trying to match the spirit, so to say. /coc/ has helped me be more productive too, so I ought to give my thanks as well.
>>149317185Happy to hear, you know your stuff.

>>149320600That's a piece of art for a newer story forming in the threads coined "Hill Billie" about a girl named Billie who can control mud and is trying to solve a mystery in the Appalachian area with her sister and a girl visiting for the summer from the city.
It will likely incorporate folklore elements from the region.
It's new, so they're not collected anywhere yet.
>>149320750A Hill Billie comic huh? Maybe one day...
>>149319899Can't touch this
>>149319965That's more of her thing.
>>149316228
>>149316820Interesting song choices so far.
I hear "Shake Your Groove Thing".
I think I have a close to working outline for Crackdown VS JackHammer now.
https://files.catbox.moe/7r5fl2.txt
It's a rough outline still, but all the major plot points are in order (for the most part).
I want to refine it more before I start turning it into a full on script.
Thoughts? Ideas for additions?
I have no idea what sort of tone Arthur has when he talks, so that's something that needs work.
I also don't think the character focus is balanced enough, so that's something I could use some feedback on.
Got back on working on my comic, some anon told me I should post those here too so I'm doing that.
I'm thinking in doping the strip format and go for a full blow narrative next. I feel ready to just try to write a story with beginning, middle and end.
No idea what is going to be about it yet.
>>149305721>>149306061For the fun of it
>Iron Man is a 16 year old with a weak heart who wears a harness to keep his heart functional. Dad dies under mysterious circumstances, "Wellness" obsessed pharma CEO Stane takes over, Tony investigates. Finds out Stane is basically an RE villain. All of his villains are reimagined in body horror fashion as he slowly builds up his suit from nothing.>Stane has a manbun, says Namaste, talks of spiritual greatness, and is basically obsessed with perfecting the human body to horrific extents. >Titanium Man is fused to his suit and it follows his every thought due to literally being a part of him>Killer Shrike has thorny flesh wings and gigantic claws>Blizzard is just HUNK>Hulk is the "Perfect human." Banner minus flaws, following a freak accident that implanted him with programmed gamma microbes designed to fix human bodies. Supposedly the Hulk is the endpoint of those microbes. Minus weakness, like hesitation, doubt, or any form of compassion.>Abomination and Flux are pretty similar. Trying to recreate the accident, we got body horror. Hulk sees them as pathetic.>Captain America is basically the same except he got put on ice by Hydra to study him. Rescued and woken by SHIELD in the modern day. Pure hatred for the Nazis courses through his veins. Notably refuses to side with anyone in modern American politics because he finds them horrible.>Spiderman's whole deal is that he actually got a relatively happy ending. Got bit when he was 14, but retired at 18 when Venom killed Aunt May and he killed Venom in return. But now, around a decade later, married with MJ and two lovely kids, he goes back into the fray when his children are put in danger by a supervillain. This basically snaps him back to reality and makes him realize that he HAS to do something, if only to make sure his kids live in a safer world. 1/??
>>149324718>Venom is dead, but when he was alive holy shit he was pure hatred incarnate. Fucker went to any lengths to personally ruin Peter's life, including killing Aunt May and recording it. Importantly, the Symbiote did NOT corrupt Peter. It just made him stronger and the power high combined with teenage angst really boosted his ego to an unhealthy level. He tore it off obviously but it was his fault and the Symbiote hates him for blaming it. Enter Eddie, the rest is history. Venom is also super uncanny valley>Green Goblin is fucking Gwen Stacy. Enough said>Thor is the actual mythological THOR>Captain America was frozen by Hydra so they could study him, and when he escapes he goes on a Punisher-tier anti-Nazi rampage. Notably refuses to engage with any modern politics
>>149324617Oh hello, I wondered what happened to you.
So you want to go for more long form stuff, huh? I guess that throws out the board commentary angle you were doing before. I was going to point you at a particularly interesting thread about The Anime Club getting a cartoon adaptation that had loads of stuff I thought was right up your ally, but a change in focus content could be interesting.
For those who don't know, this guy was doing a daily comic strip for about a month on /co/ (like his comic tells you actually).
Bunnygirl Henchwoman from Limited Run made a cameo in one of the pages (pic related).
>>149324806I can still make boar commentaries, but it will fall more in the background, the sorta of if you know you know kinda of joke.
I was doing the strips kinda like an experiment and was hard as balls. but is a good experience to understand that you should not limit yourself so much and just do it.
I want to take what me and the anons built and try to do something with more weight to it so it doesn't feel all cramped in to one singular strip. I legit have no idea of how to even go from here, but i will just do whatever, is what I learn. doing whatever is better than not doing anything at all.
>>149325189Is there any type of story you wish there was more of?
The type of story you yourself would be really into if it existed?
Even a genre or just a type of scenario may be a good place to start.
>>149325220This is a very hard question to answer for me. I like casual stories, slice of life stuff with nothing pretentious in it but characters having fun and just overall being funny and enjoyable to read but no big overarching story.
The thing is I'm trash at writing those, my mind was built and conditioned to write dark romances full of rape and psychological fucked up shit. is just what comes more easily to me when it comes down to writing, even tough is the furthest thing I want to create right now with these set of characters. Is actually quite the challenge to control myself and not shoehorn some type of abuse where my little bunny girl gets molested and made in to a toy as her mind slowly degrades in total submission, I feel like Vladimir Nabokov trying to write a archie comic without shoehorning underage incest in to it. Is hard work, man.
I've decided to write about /co/ because I also can write relatively well about people that I know, and I like you guys, closest thing from real friends I have, but there is a limit on how much you can write about a place like this when it means something different to everyone who uses it.
Right now I think I will just write something like the animeclub focusing on a recent happening, like the new pixar movie flopping or how shitty rick and morty become, pretty much like one of the strips, but instead of trying to cramp everything I want to say and every perspective in 4 panels I will slowly make in to a proper narrative, is the plan I think. Thinking about it really helped me elucidate what to do. Thanks, brotendo.
>>149325368Sounds to me that you enjoy characters who are passionate about things.
That might be what makes the nerd type of character appealing to so many people these days; they have passion, genuine enthusiasm for something. It makes a person feel more authentic or even "real" in this awful world that forces everyone to fake so much of themselves.
But that's just my spare thoughts on it right before going to bed.
Goodnight, and good luck. To both you and the thread's survival.
>>149325760Super early morning bump!
I've always enjoyed these threads, but the OC I like only comes to life through commissioned art
>>149326726Well, as long as you have the money to spare, there's far worse things you could use it on.
I'm thinking of making an upgrade to the Marley jig gif, adding Lila. But I also want her to have more frames showing how good she can dance, so it'll take a while.
>>149324025>I have no idea what sort of tone Arthur has when he talks, so that's something that needs workArthur's manner of speech is very "to the point", I honestly don't even know who to compare him with.
>>149328331Anything come to mind with what he would say in the situations I've placed him in?
>>149328319Dancing Queen.
>>149330040She strikes me more as a "Maniac on the Floor" kinda girl.
>>149329138I have a couple of notes in general.
Firstly, I don't think Frank should really be flat-out surprised at the sight of Brad transforming. He knows who BULL-E is and why he's been hired, so it shouldn't come as a shock for him. Moreover, seeing him not being bothered by that conveys just how in control he is. A scene I can easily imagine is him semi-jokingly swinging his hand around at the wrist like he just burned his hand on the stove after their arm wrestling session.
Secondly, kind of a selfish point, but the part after Jack and CD finish fighting can be used to establish Crackdown as someone who is actually very deliberate in his crimefighting and frame Jack as someone who goes in first and thinks later. Like Arthur actually explains that he had an actual course of action that Jack now ruined and warns him to "keep away from his city". This might also further motivate Jack to be a better hero.
Thirdly, I feel like you should include a similar moment for Arthur at the end as you did for Jack. Getting hit into the abdomen with tremendous force is real rough, but it's short of that monstrous tenacity "base" Crackdown would come to be known for. They're obviously both early on in their careers, that you have made clear multiple time, so it might be nice to include a scene where he reflects on that and concludes that something like that won't knock him down again.
>>149330572So you want Frank to know from the get-go about Bull-E? Not just that he wants to make sure the kid Paulie is vouching for can be useful?
It could be framed so that the arm wrestling is just to put Derek at ease, or make him fall in line with the decision to take on a temp for the evening.
And I kind of do have Frank shaking out his arm like that after the fact.
A good place for Crackdown to snap back at JackHammer would be after JH says he thought CD was a supervillain.
What's the main lesson Arthur would take away from this encounter?
For Jack, it's likely that he needs to think more about what he's doing and not just go by instinct.
I thought I did include a moment at the end with Arthur when he's lying on his bed with an ice pack on his chest saying he needs to get stronger. That's not going to be the actual line in the script (just a place holder for the right mood of the scene), but it is the parallel moment to Jack when he's on the bus ride out of town.
>>149330040I think another ABBA song fits her more.

>>149324783Shit I talked about Cap twice. Silly me!
>Mutants with combat-worthy abilities are rounded up and put in fight clubs for the ultra-rich. In fact most mutants are used as pets and shit for ultra-rich and whatnot.>Wolverine was the champion of one of these clubs, and was resigned to spending his life as a fighting dog for people who hated him. Broken spirit and all.>Jean Grey, who was being carted off to be someone's pet or experimental slave, used her powers and snapped him out of his learned helplessness by showing him how much horrible shit happens to mutants>Wolverine leads a prison break and the mutants kept in captivity in said fight club are "Recruited" to an army with the goal of liberating mutantkind from their oppressors>Iceman is still gay but it's more about a single-target sexuality deal where the only person who made him feel warmth was a dude. If it was a girl he'd still be in love. Also his powers are about REMOVING heat from things in order to freeze them. Technically they have a similar effect but the method is different.>Cyclops has the usual OP eye rays, and he can actually control them without the need for a visor, but they actually damaged his vision badly. Jean and him get into a relationship per-usual, and it's given a unique angle where she uses her psychic powers to let Scott see out of her eyes.>Magneto isn't as powerful as usual, as he can only control one pole at a time and has limited range, but he's far more creative and ruthless with his powers, all in his effort to make the world fucking burn for how it's treated him. Making a train do a head-on collision by altering the tracks, disabling satellite dishes by removing the bolts, causing missile payloads to detonate while in-base, etc. He's about causing chain reactions and shit.>Professor X is actually able to keep his powers a secret. He's just a kind old man who runs a small bookshop and ALSO happens to be helping to coordinate mutant escapes with his powers
>>149330784>what's the main lesson Arthur would take away from this encounter?"Damn, I hate that guy."

>>149328319Nothing says comfy like a boogie in your pajamas.
>>149332926He'll save every one of us.
>>149316820Look at her go!
>>149308394I do apologize for constantly doodling him getting dunked on. We have a distinct lack of cosmic level baddies who are actual fighters so he gets the stand-in role a lot. Also he just looks really cool. I am considering using Skull King for the next "cosmic hypothetical" in order to mix things up a bit, which will require a little more setup since he's not a bad guy
Still working on it, and this week greentexts
drawing this Karate stance is harder than i thought kek
>>149333694This is why I think he needs at least three big shot minions. Every space emperor has a Ginyu Force, or demon generals, or something.
Have them be different colors but still have the cosmic fabric/fire look. None of them should be green though, that edges in on Whisper.
Like a yellow one that has a miniature star behind his head where if you look at him from the front it always looks like he's standing in front of the sun. Or the star changes position depending on who is looking at him so it's always shining from behind him.
Or a giant red one that has multiple rings orbiting around him made up of flaming asteroids that he can move around at will and shape into different things or combine into bigger rocks. Or form into an army.
Or a blue-white one that looks crystalline and is always leaving an after image because he's constantly absorbing all energy from the space he occupies and as soon as he moves any energy from the space around him rushes in to fill the void he's creating. A constant mirage.
Cosmic stuff like that. All very powerful, all beings that mostly no one wants to deal with, all someone that the big three of the JC could take down if working together with the right conditions and set up.
So the key art for Connie's secret file is done. Going over the data on the wiki (and the responses from my questions last thread) and it needs a bit of fleshing out:
- Her mom, the queen of mars, needs a name.
- A city she's based in. (It can just be Platinum City. Even if IMO she should really be showing up more though if that's the case)
- Not critical but I'd like a name for martian tech, like zeta beams or gamma rays, for the flavor text portion.
Or I can just hit up a random generator to fill this stuff in if nobody minds.
>>149334018Maybe kings from conquered worlds. Maybe not all psychic, unless that's his specific interest, though they could all have some element resembling Nyx's flame to represent his control over them either figuratively or literally.
>>149334375How about Isthor for the mom's name? You can guess what that is a reference to.
A city by the sea. Or someplace with rocket research happening.
Soombar rays? Again, you can guess what that is a reference to.
>>149334500They should all glow like him. Just powerful beings he's encountered and kept around. They didn't come of his champion system and have been around him for ages.
>>149321560>A Hill Billie comicLike that's ever gonna happen
but we can hope i guess
>>149321560Has a script been written yet, or has it all been world building and flavor text?
>>149336139Just a couple greentexts so far.

Ares
Activate the Aresian Ampliphier!
>>149334375Moms name, huh?
Hmmm
How about Januvia?
>>149331468There's also my reinvention of the Silver Surfer.
Galactus doesn't consume planets, he consumes narrative so to speak. He unravels a planet into a primordial state so it may become something new.
And what came before? The history, souls, memories, voices, even concepts? That is stored in a "repository" that he chooses from that planet's population. AKA the Surfer.
>>149316820What Marley lacks in physique she makes up for in jigs, nice work!
>>149305594I think it'll work best in emphasizing her weird and awkward behavior
>>149328319Looking forward to you Lila jig
>>149334008That's really good. I like to see more of her in karate robes training.
>>149334375Something with an apostrophe, like Koriand'r. K'assia? Kโhorini?
>>149334829The references being to Dejah Thoris (the princess of Mars) and the Barsoomian (Martian) language from John Carter of Mars since no one wanted to guess.
>>149336837>What Marley lacks in physique she makes up for in jigs, nice work!No jiggles, all jigs
>>149336837Interesting animation you have there.
>>149336350Wait, do you mean he eats the current narrative and resets it to a prior state?
I get that the surfer is the planet's population's "soul" condensed down to one individual.
>>149339466I mean more that he wipes the planet of anything that made it special, like how one would snip a taller flower than the rest, but gives the "Memory" of the planet to a single inhabitant.
Don't worry, you don't "Die" exactly. You're just all stuck in one guy's body as he's forced to roam to cosmos
My Dr Strange is even weirder. Because it's roughly the same origin, except he, in a fit of despair after his whole hands incident, drunkenly stumbled into the Sorcerer Supreme's abode and broke all his shit. Now he's doing an unpaid internship as an "Apprentice" pay off the damages, and suffice to say magic is fucking weird. It's an entirely different set of logic than we're used to. Like Doc Hollywood meets Armed and Delirious
>>149339680But yeah
>Iron Man: Sick but smart rich boy slowly builds armor suit to aid in his investigation of his father's death while fighting the machinations of a wellness-obsessed RE villain>Hulk: Man creates panacea, accidently unleashes disinterested Ubermensch persona and has to deal with the fallout>Spider-Man: Former teen superhero gets back in the game after his kids almost die while being a good husband/father>X-Men: Group of mutants leading a resistance to free their people who are treated as slaves and pets, aided by a turbo-psychic kind old man who runs a bookstore>Thor: Actual mythological Thor, back from the dead. Asgard fell to shit after Ragnarok, so now he's looking for shit to rebuild it with.>Captain America: Traumatized WW2 super soldier in the modern day via forced cryostasis, full of rage against the Nazis that did this to him and has to navigate a world he no longer recognizes>Dr. Strange: Rational man must embrace an irrational new reality if he wants his hands back>Silver Surfer: Man turned into a USB drive for his planet seeks vengeance upon god
>>149337245Ishtor looked like a reference to the babylonian goddess Ishtar. It's more similar to it than Dejah Thoris.
It might be just my lack of knowledge, perhaps. Even more so because you mentioning Barsoomian made me realize a possible reference to the latter in another /co/ project. I think I don't read enough.
>>149339951FWIW I didn't get the Ishtor reference either. he Barsoomian was a little easier to rearrange the letters on but I didn't make the connection.
Personally I think it should probably have a similar phonetic sound to Connie's name.
>>149339680There was a character from Doom Patrol called The Fog I think. He was a man who could turn into fog and anyone who made contact with him was absorbed into his body. They all maintained full consciousness and hated him fiercely, manifesting as many different split personalities all trying to escape from him.
Though it sounds more like you're going for a Hohenheim angle where all the souls forced together come to an agreement to accomplish a singular objective: killing the thing that did this to them.
>>149339951All I did was switch the syllables. Thor-is became Is-thor. Bar-soom became Soom-bar.
I don't have in-depth knowledge of John Carter of Mars, but I thought it was still well known and it would make for a fun nod to how much influence that series has on Conner Cosmos's Martian backstory since her father is like a John Carter stand-in, or the GGverse's equivalent to that person.
Or so I thought he was. It doesn't seem to be mentioned as such in any of the more readily available information about the character.
>>149340156No, Norrin is the dominant consciousness and actively works to keep his mind palace comfortable
>>149340156I think that John Cosmos is indeed supposed to be a John Carter homage but yeah the wiki entries are kinda lacking on finer details across the board since they only have a paragraph each.
>>149339691>>149332023a new Hill-billie art from the /co/ drawthread.
she is getting so much love lately
>>149340455>latelyIt seems like she's had some appeal with wider /co/ in general since her conception.
Goodnight, or good whatever it is appropriate for you anons right now.
>>149340455Nice art!
i find it funny how they made her thighs thicc here.
artists either go with thicc Billie or sticc Billie.
>>149340915Over here the day already dawned, so good morning!
>>149340455Wait a second... Did the artist make Billie a redhead because of my own drawing
>>149320777 ? That's unintended, if so.
>>149341688yes i think they thought she was redhead cause of your art in the refrences
>>149332023 it's okay if you ask me
>>149341729It's a great piece either way, I just can't help but feel just a smidge of guilt that because of me they painted her "wrong".
>>149341688This is why model sheets are such a great idea.
>>149342035That would be neat, depicting a character's design and highligthing their most essential features, but leaving enough leeway for every artist to make their own adjustments.
>>149340234The members of the SoS don't get much discussion in general as usually they're just set pieces for GG.
The John Carter homage has likely been around for some time, but wasn't obvious when the wiki page was made and hasn't received much, if any discussion until now.
We can't document what doesn't exist yet, you know?
>>149342523>highligthing their most essential featurei think for Billie it's: Frackles,missing upper teeth,muddy feet/hands,long legs...what else?
>>149342633>long legsAre those really one of her defining traits? I never noticed.
>>149340455>>149341729Redhead Billie is like the alternate pallette if she's picked in a mirror match.
>>149336882thanks and i will probably draw her and other DL characters more in the future who knows
>>149340455well damn this pretty cool!
>>149341445>artists either go with thicc Billie or sticc Billie.and i like both
>>149341688don't worry about it anon, it's not a big deal
heck it's not even an issue, i like both Redhead and brown hair Billie.
Also i know the /coc/ rules
>you are free to post whatever ideas/settings/characters you want, but you have to be OK with other people playing with them (tweaking them, putting them in stories, using them for things, etc.)>>149343068>Are those really one of her defining traits? I never noticed.i mean she does have long legs (kinda) but is it a "most essential feature"? not really.
I will post new DL greens later this day,thanks
>>149340156>>149339680>>149339761I'm also considering
>Miles as the second Prowler who's spent Spiderman's 8-ish year retirement training to find and take him down out of resentment for a whole bunch of things, mainly involving Aaron.>Blade as a preacher who fights vampires the classic way.>Punisher as literally the baddest motherfucker currently living. Street crooks and petty crime? Too low, that shit's a symptom not the sickness itself. Now, PMCs and other elite military orgs who work for the highest bidder and destabilize nations? Yeah, that'll work. He's aiming to tear off the arms of the war economy.
>>149345815Who's glasses with the Bren? I like her.

>>149346125Who'd feature in it?
>>149346179Jack, obviously.
>>149340455Happy guys, liked it assumed it was dynamo that asked so did it for fun also to redeem my first hill billie abomination.
Working on a nellie sketch currently.
>>149340591Mostly cause we like brunettes, and dynamo also everyone likes mud wrasslin'
>>149341445She was originally sticc and was goal but then I realized because of how overalls cover her sticc made her legs look awkward and disconnected. So went a bit more big thighs, plus like kangaroos and rapist all wrestlers powers come from their thighs
>>149341688My first billie was brown haired but realized it made things like mud not stand out. So think best if she a dirty red head or dark red head but that's just me
>>149343769She's no powers billie, when she got her mud power her hair turned brown as the mud pits.
>>149344314Happy you liked boyo
I make it my life goal to draw the most dynamo ocs kek
>>149346179>>149346211>half of the special is male /coc/ characters showing off their glistening abs and shit on the beach>Arthur's page has him asleep with a fishing rod in hand instead, implying that he probably might not have consented to being featured

Continuing the next part of DL Greentexts so it's gonna be long
>The tension in the air hadnโt vanishedโit simply shifted.
>As Willow stepped onto the mat, her padded gear in place and tail flicking with anticipation, the rest of the class gathered back into their sitting spots, buzzing with quiet chatter and loaded looks.
>Aya leaned against Gwendolynโs side, still groggy but watching with a half-lidded interest. Ronnie sat silently, arms crossed, recovering from both pain and shame, while Sailor Norm nursed his bandaged arm and tried to sip from a juice pouch with his off-hand.
>Nobody said the words โWillowโs gonna win.โ
>Because nobody believed it.
>Coach Roma wasnโt just strongโshe was seasoned. Her body was built from years of real battles, not drills.
>She moved like a predator and trained like a gladiator. Every student had seen her dismantle dummies, bark commands mid-spar, and laugh through blows that would knock out half of them.
>Willow? She was enthusiastic. Energetic. Trained, sureโbut this was different.
>So the bets werenโt about if she would win.
>It was about how sheโd lose.
>Ronnie finally spoke up, breaking the silence with a calm, detached tone. โWeโre betting on the outcome. Not who winsโthatโs obvious. The betโs on how the match ends.โ
>Aya groaned, rubbing her temples. โYou guys seriously never learnโฆโ
>โShhh,โ Ronnie snapped. โI say points. Roma will go easy on her. End it before Willow does something reckless.โ
>Gwendolyn frowned. โI think sheโll hold her own for a bit, but then tap out.โ
>โKnockout,โ said Norm, grinning. โCalling it now. Coach Romaโs gonna hit her so hard she thinks sheโs a literal beaver.โ
>Aya blinked. โElimination. Maybe she gets tossed outta bounds or something.โ
>Ronnie nodded, counting off each bet with a mental note. โEveryone betting their lunch for a week?โ
>Nods and muttered agreements followed.
>>149346693>Meanwhile, just beyond the edge of the mat, the other judges had their own exchange.>Coach Alan leaned closer to Mrs. Mavis, whispering just loud enough to be heard over the growing hum of student voices.>โSo,โ he said, glancing toward Willow with narrowed eyes. โYou always say this girlโs well-trained. That her father put time into her defense. You actually believe she has a chance?โ>Mrs. Mavis didnโt answer right away.>Instead, she watched Willow step into her stanceโfeet flat, back straight, fingers flexing slightly like she was finding her rhythm. Her expression was focused. Lighthearted, maybe. But serious.>Finally, Mavis smiled.>โI think sheโll put up a good match,โ she said softly.>Coach Alan raised a brow. โThatโs not an answer.โ>โIโve met her father,โ Mrs. Mavis continued, more quietly now. โLong before this. We had a long conversation. Heโs not your regular hero. Passionate. Obsessed with discipline, control, and precision. He taught Willow himselfโsince she could stand upright, I imagine.โ>She chuckled, almost wistfully.>โPlusheโs been dating my sister, Liza, for years.โ>Coach Alan blinked. โWait. You meanโโ>โSister Coyote Liza,โ Mavis said with a grin. โOne of the wildest, most untamed members of the Sisterhood of Canines. A chaotic force of nature. And heโs the man whoโs kept up with her.โ>Coach Alan gave a slow, impressed whistle. โSo not just a โdad who teaches karate in his garage.โ Got it.โ>Mrs. Mavis nodded, eyes back on Willow. โSheโs his daughter. Letโs see what that really means.โ>Alan leaned back, smirking. โWeโre about to find out.โ>The crowd hushed.>Coach Roma stepped onto the mat, cracking her knuckles as she met Willowโs eager eyes with a grin sharp enough to slice granite.>And in that moment, the match wasnโt just about scoring points.>It was about proving something.>To her classmates.>To the teachers.>To herself.
>>149346712>The field quieted to a hum of anticipation.>Coach Roma stepped forward slowly, muscles rolling beneath her dark training uniform, her expression unreadable but calm. Willow mirrored her steps, light on her feet, eyes focused, tail still behind her like a coiled spring.>Roma's first strike came fastโbut simple.>A straight jab aimed at Willowโs shoulder. Not too forceful. A tester.>Whiff.>Willow ducked under it effortlessly, her body moving like water slipping through a sieve.>Another strike. This time a hook aimed toward her ribs.>Whiff.>Willow pivoted on the ball of her foot, her body leaning just out of range, her eyes cool, focused.>The thirdโa feint into a sweep.>Whiff.>Willow jumped over the sweep with a light spring, landing neatly on her toes like a gymnast.>The crowd murmured.>Even Aya sat up a little straighter. โWhoa.โ>Sailor Norm let out a low whistle. โSheโs reading those strikes like a textbook.โ>Gwendolyn blinked, watching each dodge like a slow-motion replay. โItโs like sheโs not even breaking a sweat.โ>Ronnie didnโt even flinch. โItโs Willow. She always bragged about how her dad trained her in everything. Grapples, footwork, situational awareness, you name it. Of course sheโs good at dodging. Sheโs probably seen faster fists.โ>Coach Roma pulled back, and for the first time in these matchsโsmiled.>She wasnโt disappointed.>She was intrigued.>โOkay, little Filbert,โ she said with a spark in her voice. โYouโve got good legs. Letโs see if youโve got good roots.โ>In one breath, her stance changed.>The casual movements were gone. What replaced them was precisionโtight form, sharp weight distribution. She planted her legs into a grounded position, one hand extended forward, the other low and ready.>Greco-Roman stance.>No more jabs. No more playful testing.>Now she was going for control.>She stepped in low, arms outโnot to strike, but to grapple.
>>149346731>Willowโs eyes widened for a split second, then she sprang back, flipping into a clean retreat and landing in a sharp, balanced nekoashi-dachi stance. Her front foot barely touched the mat, weight poised on her back leg. Hands up, open-palmed. Tail curled low in tension.>Karate stance. Defensive, reactive, coiled.>"Sheโs switching styles," Roma thought, eyes gleaming. "Smart girl.">Willowโs mind raced.>"She was just testing me earlierโฆ now sheโs serious.">She could see it nowโthe subtle forward lean, the smooth footwork, the precision in Coach Romaโs movements. It was a dance of someone who had studied for years. Fought in real arenas. Someone who didnโt move to intimidate, but to neutralize.>"Sheโs just like Dad.">Willowโs chest tightened.>"Noโฆ maybe even better than Dad.">Her heartbeat pounded in her ears. Not with fearโbut excitement.>"I canโt win this. Not with strength. Not with technique. But I can score. I can survive. I can make it count.">Coach Romaโs leg shiftedโand then she charged.>She was a blur.>Gone was the slow circling. The teasing jabs. Now she sprinted like a cannonball, low and explosive, arms ready to snatch Willow mid-step, lift, twist, and slam.>Willowโs eyes widened.>"Sheโs faster than I thoughtโ!">On the sidelines, the atmosphere had changed.>No one was lounging casually anymore. Everyone sat forward, their eyes wide and locked onto the mat like a live broadcast of the championship finals.>Mrs. Mavis smiled, her arms loosely folded over her chest as her golden eyes watched every inch of Willowโs movement. Her tail flicked once with quiet satisfaction.>โI knew it,โ she said, almost to herself. โJoe trained her wellโฆ but more importantly, she listened. That girl doesnโt just memorize formsโshe adapts. Thereโs a warriorโs rhythm in her.โ>Coach Alan, arms crossed, let out a low whistle.
>>149346750>โIโll admit,โ he muttered, โthis is more than I expected. I knew Roma liked a challenge, but I havenโt seen her grin like that since the Staff vs. Militia charity match.โ>He glanced sideways at Mavis.>โIf Willow keeps this up, sheโs gonna end up as Romaโs new favorite student.โ>Mavis didnโt answerโbut she didnโt deny it either.>On the seats nearby, the students watched with growing disbelief.>Sailor Norm leaned forward, whispering, โIs sheโฆ actually making Coach Roma work?โ>Gwendolyn nodded, slack-jawed. โIโve never seen anyone last this long without getting floored.โ>Aya rubbed her eyes. โI think Iโm still dreaming.โ>Ronnie, meanwhile, wasnโt reacting at all.>He was calculating.>His eyes flicked between the two fightersโCoach Romaโs low, grounded form and Willowโs light-footed counterstance. His mind turned like a machine fed with too much data, tracking every movement like lines on a battlefield simulation.>"Coach Roma commits early,"he thought."Her power comes from pre-loaded momentum. Sheโs not reactive, sheโs predictive. She charges. She pins. Grapples. Forces you into her flow. And once youโre in itโฆ game over.">His eyes narrowed.>But Willow isnโt in it. Sheโs sidestepping. Redirecting. Sheโs not fighting Romaโs fightโsheโs fighting her own.>he replayed the previous moves in his head like a tape: Romaโs charges. Willowโs footwork. Her calculated retreats. And nowโฆ>Sheโs trying to drain her. Wait for an opening. A low-weight, redirection strategyโฆ Not sustainable for long, but enough to score.>He frowned slightly.>I couldnโt beat either of them with brute strength. But if I can learn their rhythmโฆ maybe I can rewrite the tempo.>Back on the mat, the rhythm was reaching its peak.>Romaโs charge wasnโt a bluff this time.
>>149346763>She closed the distance between them like a missileโher body crouched low, arms ready to snap up around Willowโs waist and slam her into the mat in one smooth, showstopping takedown.>But Willow had felt the wind shift.

>>149345917- and the winner in swimsuit competition is Shark Lass!
- it's also my superhero costume! Yay me!
>>149346902Sometimes a simple tease can do far more than the real stuff could...
>>149346781Interesting.
Willow isn't even going all out yet. Well, I guess she can't since powers were forbidden during sparing?
>>149346344>when she got her mud power her hair turned brown as the mud pits.An interesting idea, it would make sense that she is naturally a redhead, but it gets covered in mud and dirt from how much she uses her power.
>>149345056Yep, Enchiladas with garlic bread.
>>149336837>Looking forward to you Lila jigThanks, it's a bit scuffed though, I'm not ready to make stuff like this consistently yet. Also changed Lila's outfit, hope that's not disapointing.
>>149350137Lils lookin ready to show you the power of her [STAND]
>>149348425Kind of funny but a bit gross in a lot of ways, though a bit funny most consider mud gross but most of our innovation and start as a species came from Mud. Billie just understands the importance of the mud, she was born in it, molded by it.
>>149349861Sounds yummy! Now I have to go sleep thinking about that, rotten luck.
>>149350158https://youtu.be/g-njtZmmUw4
>>149349861Sounds like something Wario would eat.
>>149350603SOMETHING'S TEARING ME DOWN
>>149350137https://youtu.be/Q9kDr4na0ls
There's a new anime in the "depressing things happening to little girls" genre making the rounds right now and I feel like the main character reminds me of a certain hydrokinetic superhero's companion.
>>149346344Finally finished my nellie art, was gonna be a sketch but then realized no color of Nellie so decided to try and do one.
Kind of went Lucy from loud house with her eye, just thought man what if she had really pretty eyes under her bangs. She doesn't even realize it herself. Hope you enjoy dynamo
>>149346344So it was you! I knew it since i recognized your artstyle and i thought "hey isn't that Darkthoughts61 Dumbstruck anon ?!" and i was right
also i really like your first Billie Art and has a special place in my heart since it was one of the first art i got of Billie so don't worry.
as the whole mud powers changed her hair color thing, i like it and i'm this close to adding it to the lore, but i might change some aspects of it
>>149347975Yes, Willow isn't using her green aura powers, but she's struggling because Coach Roma's team is made up of average D-list goons that she's used to fighting with her team, and Willow isn't as experienced as her teammates.
and to make it clear, Willow won't win this match, but she will do her best.
>>149352588Incredible Job!
you really make Nellie look different and i like it!
i hope the other anons will like it too
>>149352588Pretty spicy, but I don't understand the tan marks, oh well fantastic job either way.
>>149346693Good read! I also gotta agree, your art is getting better.
Happy Friday everyone, don't really have much else to say.
Folks voted to extend the Harvestman minicomic, so here it is plus two more pages!
>>149355384Second of the original two...
>>149355395Mantis begins his getaway, aided by his concealed self-defense baton! (it's a tonfa for your sleeve!)
>>149355410A rocket-powered delivery system isn't quite Extremis, but it'll do in a pinch. He's seen off the Harvestman... for now! But I'm not so sure that's tech powering that "suit..."
Anyhow, happy Friday, everyone. Next voot will be soon, probably shortly after the sunday pile.
>>149353314What team? It's a one-on-one match.
You mean the fighting styles they've each been cycling through?
>>149355410>>149355441He thinks it's a suit.
Fitting that some of the thread has recently been about cryptids.
That's really cool.
>>149355441This is awesome, my vocabulary is not big enough for any fancier compliments, so I hope that portrays my joy enough.
>>149355410>>149355441Pretty cool, even if, admittedly, not much has happened in these two pages.
>>149351489They look malnourished.
>>149354115look above, she wears a sports bra and I only realized now that that white on her legs isn't some form of under shorts but meant to be where the denim rolls up/cuts off on the overalls.But so did the tanline because that's where i thought she wore clothes under the overalls assumed she wore like boxers or spats. But today she commando so tan makes since especially with a super open back type overall which dynamo implies with the long slit
>>149353314Yee, huh idk if i like being recognizable. I thought i got much better from that first one even the bg feels bit more subtle.
Also Idk if allowed but had a idea, nellie is traditionally beautiful so she has a bit of a meg "Don't make me over" thing. The aunt or family go to the mall or shop and someone says they can even make someone like Nellie pretty. Then they figure out she's convinently adorable/attractive super big eyes long lashes etc. Shenigengans ensue and she gets involved in a pageant or modeling but it's not her thing. Then her and Billie (or even better grace) have a heart to heart about not having to do it and she's fine as she is. Then she pulls a stinky and gives up a million dollars
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wR5C7FcSyg>Just like stinky's dad, her pa respects it but cries over the millions lost>Nellie hugs her ma at the end of it all, back to normal>Ma: oh don't worry nellie we are happy you are back to your old smelly tomboy ways>Nellie: y....you guys are really ok with me not being some rich beauty queen?>Ma pats her head"of course sugah, we love you..............though it'll take your Pa sometime to get over it">Pa in bg struggling and holding onto the contract for dear life>Pa: PLEASEEEEEEEE!!!! I'LL PUT ON THE DARN DRESS SON I'M BEGGGGGING YOU!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOIdk why now headcanon pa is a money guy. he's a sweet guy but he's the business man. They gotta make money somehow. idk if ever been done before a money grubber/obsessed guy that does care forreal.
>>149357721I'm pretty sure the one at the front canonically is.
>>149358614Haven't thought about that in a while.
>>149353314Your loli, tell me, why does she hides her eyes? I gained an interest on her. I have a thing for character with bangs as such, I want to draw her, but I prefer drawings characters I know and understand. if you give me a short backstory of her. I looked in the archieve but could not find much.
>>149359300One of many anons I wonder where they wound up.
>>149288308 (OP)do any of you anons have any humanized co designs i could draw? humanized /coc/ needs someone to shame
>>149359827/co/nrad is the usual one.
https://the-conservatory.fandom.com/wiki//co/nrad
There's also a more generic /co/mrade design, though I don't have it handy.
>>149359913thank you, that wiki is the only good fandom wiki in my opiniom
>>149360086The virgin /co/nrad vs. the chad /coc/kswain.
>>149360219i guess the name is cockswain now
>>149360494>gifted with a ginormous dick>has to fuck with the lights out or exclusively blind people otherwise he'll kill themThe Rogue Xman of our time
whatever, man, I drew something anyway.
>>149361569Sassy child. Good work, Darkseid.
>>149361569That's sick. Nellie getting lots of love.
>>149361660No prob, fren. We and I, are kindred spirits. Also, I like drawing girls with this type of bangs, is really not a lot to ask of me.
>>149362607Ok I immediately thought molly, then you drew the rabbit so we had same thought.
Also sorry hate to say if I'm wrong but is this ai? Something about the brush having tons of shifts in it.
>>149362690No, it's not ai. Here is an earlier version. I don't know what you mean by shifts, you mean the slight gradient I use to give a bit more color variation? Or just how chaotic my strokes are? I'm just lazy and rush things a lot without much care or thought, the end result is like that. I don't mind, tho. so don't worry.
>>149362714Yee idk it's just how some of the areas have kind of weird blurs and shifts in the tones. But probably yeah rushed colors and chaotic style. But honestly good stuff 100%
Now making me want to step my A game up, I can't be behind with nellie. Though no ideas well no non nsfw lol.
>>149362741Just do whatever you feel like, anon, I think the important thing is to do something and try to enjoy yourself. there are no real wrongs in art, if it's an extension of yourself it will be right in some way.
But I understand the struggle, when it comes to writing all my characters and things are extremely fucked up or too pretentious and convoluted and I feel like a dumb-ass trying to explain why my bunny girls are a nod to Carl Jung psychology and old greek daemons or whatever the fuck I'm mumbling about, specially when I just want to write silly fun adventures without shoehorning this sorta of thing in to it without even noticing.
I did not found the secret to not be a pervert yet, if I do I let you know. Nellie is cute! Cute I say! in the end is all that should matter.
>>149362853Lol, not my character it's dynamo's but I did also draw her and kind of fell for her. Though slowly becoming a whole different oc I think.
Yep love how you draw her bro gonna do more soon. Also do you have a account anon?
>>149362992Nah, the best i have is this gallery from a collaborative drawing site:
https://flockmod.com/gallery/index.php?q=/post/list/user_id%3D124697/2
You can check some of my art in there, but there is also a unreal amount of shitpost. you should be fine if you avoid the dark romantic simpsons porn or sonic feet in it.
>>149363059Damn good stuff and unique style anon, shit mad respect. Also dark romance hope it's bart and lisa lol
got any /coc/ characters also the feet through me off but I'm the resident /coc/ footfag apparently lol.
>>149362607>>149362690The Molly bangs are really baked into the /co/ psyche.
>>149363121You would think footfags would still carry a torch for /co/lette seeing how part of the design was bare feet because of Toph.
But I guess this era of /coc/ has fallen out of style.
>>149363675Indeed bang girls are the best, always said was gonna make one lol
Also just finished another nellie, honestly took me a 1hour but kind of proud the inital sketch was done in 30 mins for both.
Full versions
>https://files.catbox.moe/mtq9bd.png>https://files.catbox.moe/vll9ib.png>>149363698I was told about her myself which is weird how I was instantly branded a footfag for two girls with stirrup socks but all of magi girls wear them lol. I call SHENIENGANS!!!
But usually try to only draw my gals or new ones, like to support newer coc since i know I appreciate it when my girlies get love.
>>149340455>>149352588>>149361569>>149362607I'm starting to get jealous of Dynamo Anon jokingly for getting too much of his characters lately.
Good for him though.
>>149364309oh my god this looks cute anon, good job.
>catbox linksJesus Christ, Anon!
>>149364422Eh also got to remember dudes other series is like 2 years old and only got 3 drawings to it. So it's all about vibe and just feeling, I honestly drew billie the first time just to help get the ball rolling, and roll it has. Nellie just cute plus i had to draw her 2 more times to stay at the top of most nellie's "I'M THE HILL BILLIE ARTFAG ROUND DEEZ PARTS"
But yee, same a bit though I need to just draw my ocs lol.
Was gonna just draw a casting couch but slowly became a self test of if I could do a 2 parter in a hour in full color, then kept getting more techincally. The literal bg stuff took a solid 20-30 mins of finding a good ref and editing the bg out kek.
>Jesus Christ, Anon!Don't worry no Nellies were hurt during the making of this video. Because their's only 1 nellie
If dynamo allows I'll do more got a few green ideas, though guess it's cool since they somewhat left the project open to /coc/ iirc
>>149361569>>149352588>>149364309why did you made her so cute!
also iirc Isn't Nellie supposed to be a feral kid who speaks in screechs and gibberish?
i always imagined her talking like Donnie from The Wild Thornberrys
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMHTbnEtZs8
you made her look gentle and quiet
>>149334375Nova City, Empire City, or Bayside City
>>149367030Nova City has that new technology feel to it. I don't think she's allowed to share any Martian technology with the people of Earth.
Bayside City makes me think of Baywatch. The ocean must be fascinating to aliens from planets without large bodies of water, so it makes sense she'd like being near it.
>>149365044I haven't been keeping up so we'd have to ask dynamo, I wasn't in threads for last while besides posting my ideas. Been super stressful weeks on my end so not as much /coc/. Also bailey the spider boy was ending so I had to lock in.
Think she fits as the gentle quiet one, also she read as the strong one. Billie has the powers and wrasslin skills but she reminds me of the guy from xaolin showdown some how also his eyes had bangs over them too lol.
>>149362607>>149362714So I'm guessing you got inspired by that rabbit chick from Arthur.
>>149367185My thought were "space term, empire strikes back, and Cape Canaveral but comic booky"
>>149367565I feel we all had that thought, because both wear a lot of denim lol. My new canon is Nellie has a rabbit called molly
>>149354444Well thanks
>>149355454>What team? It's a one-on-one match.>You mean the fighting styles they've each been cycling through?wtf did i write, sorry i don't know what happened but here's my real answer
>Yes, Willow isn't using her green aura powers, but she's struggling because Coach Roma is not your average D-list goons that she's used to fighting with the Dynamo League, and Willow isn't as experienced as Coach Roma.>>149357769>Greentextok that was funny, not what i expected, but i like your version of Nellie so far
>>149359641sorry anon i got IP blocked so i didn't have the chance to tell you about Nellie,but here you go
Nellie is Billie's feral younger sister. She talks very fast and sounds like gibberish to normal people and spends her days chasing animals around, she also has a strong sense of smell and sometimes her family and Grace use her as a bloodhound to track someone or something
This is her description so far (it might change)
>>149361569>>149362607Incredible! i really like this anon thanks
>>149364309not bad Anon even if it's not my cup of tea but hey this is /coc/ after all.
>>149364511>If dynamo allows I'll do more got a few green ideas,oh please do, i like hearing ideas
>>149369503We really need to start making better use of plus4chan when things like that happen.
But anyway, so the sparring matches have a rule against using powers, right? I'm not misremembering that?
>>149369503Heh, nellie gonna get her own side story. The Nellie side lol.
Also damn guess I didn't catch up on nellie lore, I remember when she was first made but not much else.How you get blocked? Nice again I made the headcanon just off the first talk you had when you introduced her plus assumed Hill billie was still a bit dead know for a sec you didn't know if you could do both.
Happy you back on it, also yeah mostly my headcanon of nellie is. She's the strong sis, a bit like clay from xaolin showdown. She's the ego to Billie's Id, I assumed billie is the more irresponsibly one going off on adventures and causing troubles. An since nellie's tanner she works the fields more and is more helpful type or maybe hunts could be funny. Also idk got Quiet responsible helpful type like ferb and clay.
Also my ideas are more in line with "/coc/" but do apologize if my stuff is too much
Shouldn't we settle down and wait for tomorrow?
>>149371484Alright, let us wait then.
>>149331107Huh. I've never actually seen the music video before
requesting lewds on goth marley
>>149373375Lol didn't realize marley had a goth phase, how'd she even get her hair to do that
>>149373966just let it grow out and the weight can hold it down.
