>>448676 Tummy! >>448677 >What's this? A twink without anyone to fuck? I'll take the case! >>448679 Finally, some proper fanservice! >>448694 I've got a list of over 50 lewd comics to go through, most are hetero though ;_;
>>448698 While he's mostly known for his big titty waifus, I think he's got a great eye for character design. I'd love to see him work on a SFW comic >>448699 What's there's there! Fortunately not. A surprising amount of gender transformation comics though
In a way, I find this even more impressive than the guy with the wooden skeleton Amy. Still, I am not sure how to feel about it. It should reach my bueno threshold, but it's also so well done.
The person who do those costumes actually say he hire female model to pose in them, just to show the dedication of the guy.
>>448707 Made a Knuckles Too. (at least the head) (I was obviously not going to post the previous picture in the main thread, our special friend would have likely skipped the ban and immediately send a kill-team to remove me)
>>448707 Looks really good. Must be difficult translating the design to a fursuit. I'm still traumatized after seeing Kuta dress up as Sally and hang out in a children's playground >wooden skeleton Amy Pretty sure that was Sally. Unless there's more than one... >>448708 I'm generally not into fursuits but I'd 100% marry any dude willing to dress up as Knuckles >>448715 I recognize that artist! He's got this really distinct style that's like a sexy version of (non-Sonic) Archie. Does some pretty funny parodies too
>got a ban for calling out Sally/Rotor being deleted in seconds whenever they're posted, even in SFW contexts, but actual Tails/Rouge porn and a violation of the global rules is allowed to stay up for an entire day Guess that explains who has been spamming that kind of porn and related posts in the threads. I really want to know why he specifically is still allowed janitorial power.
>>448739 No worries, I wish I could forget too! >>448747 Sorry to hear that, the jannies are unbelievably petty. I don't ever directly reference the moderation over there now because of stuff like this. I'm actually surprised my sexy Elias pic didn't get deleted, he was even wearing Sally's reboot outfit >I really want to know why he specifically is still allowed janitorial power. Because he does it for free. Seriously though, it's a big site that needs a lot of moderation and they have to take what they can get. I can't imagine there'd be that many wanting to volunteer, especially now that it's known that the mods spend most of their time roleplaying in IRC. I also suspect he's friends with one of the mods
>Sonamy discussion in the other thread To be entirely fair - they ARE trying to give Modern Sonic a more Boom-like relationship with Amy. He's in the same boat as Boom Sonic where he's unwilling to admit his feelings towards Amy because he's a himbo.
>>448748 He's definitely in bed with one of the mods. It's really the only explanation for why he can get away with spamming threads to death and getting people banned who call him out. Well that, and the mods using the IRC to ERP instead of doing their fucking jobs.
>>448749 I have to agree, moving towards a more Boom-like relationship is a huge improvement. From what I can tell it was Kiyoko Yoshimura (and Maekawa to a lesser extent) that were responsible for the original relationship dynamic. Technically that Sonic also likes Amy but is incapable of expressing it, and he was willing to go on a date with her between Unleashed and Black Knight. At least now we don't have to worry about it looking one-sided anymore
>tfw you have to ERP with a 4chan mod on IRC just to keep your janny status Sad!
>>448750 Only genuinely pathetic individuals unbelievably desperate for control are the types that would apply to be a mod or a janny anyway, so it checks out.
If you have posted the comic of this artist already, then it might have been from a different account, because their name does not comes up on desuarchive (that or the search engine is broken again), nor does the artist name or comics title comes up on the ride search engine.
Maybe it was on your backlog in what you had planned to post?
And a longer one with two chapters: https://www.deviantart.com/starsaround/gallery?q=summer The story contain "free space" and does not make a lot of sense, though, especially as pages are missing and can even be wrongly linked to each others. Maybe you ruled it out already and considered it not worthy of curating?
Welp, that Baby Sonic comic turned out to be 4 pages only, in the end, which is shorter than what I expected it to be, and maybe not as weird as I thought it could be, but till with a weird ass baby Sonic.
I was posting some of Hyoumaru's art in the other thread, butt these would never fly. There's some lewd Shadally on her account, but fair warning Shadow's got a bumpy alien cock. Also, there's lots of lewd Rails art sigh https://inkbunny.net/gallery/Hyoumaru/3/a8f0c67515
>>448783 He has become better at passing his post for reasonable points. Maybe if we train him enough, it'll be like an AI where his initial rantings will develop in what would appear to be a decent conversation?
>>448784 I think the only reason why I even thought he was being reasonable is due to how he phrased his "views" on Shadow and Sally as having 'chemistry' and I simply wanted to point out how that's not really true. Then he started pushing his delusions about Archie Sonic being some total monster over the Slap and what happened with Patch, and it became increasingly clear that he was doing his usual shitposting. But I didn't want to outright accuse him fully either, not until he went full incel with the level of unhinged projection.
I think him saying "Jules and Bernadette should have hit Sonic more when he was a kid" has to be one of the most batshit psychotic things someone has ever said in one of these threads, that wasn't IDWkun having a tantrum.
All you have to do is avoid arguments in the thread. I know that sounds weird but 90% of the time it's the same anon that's looking for a fight to drag things out. Then he'll go schizo and tank the thread like he's doing now. Arguing on the internet rarely works out, definitely won't in Sonic threads, and never will in our threads. The sooner you realize that the better. That's why when some anons gets contentious or very negative I don't reply and move on. You're not going to have a genuine argument. It's going to be bait.
>>448785 >he was being reasonable is due to how he phrased his "views" on Shadow and Sally as having 'chemistry' I actually thought it was an other anon explaining how he perceive the character before the conversation was Hijacked by our ranting little friend, but looking back at it, now, this post there >>>/4chan/co/136883116p136887919 Should have been the obvious redflag.
>>448784 >>448785 Literally going "this character should be violently abused because he's not acting like how I think he should act" - I legitimately believe he doesn't realize how unhinged he sounds or how much worse of a narcissist he comes across compared to the guy he hates.
Like, Archie Sonic is obviously flawed and has issues - but acting like he's at fault for the Slap or Patch then pulling off the most contorted mental gymnastics in history when you're corrected has to be one of the most delusional things I've encountered in a Sonic thread.
>>448786 Conductor is right. But god do I hate it. I think this has to be like, the fifth time an in-depth discussion about Archie Sonic or the Archie cast got hijacked by this guy for his demented ramblings. It's not even specific to just talking about Archie Sonic either; he starts this shit if you talk about the distinct behaviors, personalities, or traits of any Sonic. Discussion is a fucking minefield because you wither have no idea what he's going to latch onto to try and derail the thread or if you do, then entire topics become taboo.
>>448787 I even recognized that he was blatantly generalizing Archie Sonic, but I thought he was just projecting his overall views. Looking back, that was pretty blatantly him dropping the mask.
>>448789 I was reporting him for spamming and flooding, as well as being off-topic (no, random single images of IDW aren't on-topic content Ashfag). Mods won't do shit, but it's comforting to at least try.
Also, kinda sus he has so many IDW-related images yet acts like he has some understanding of Archie whilst also claiming to hate the title character. Most of them are of Whisper too.
>literally drive away all good discussion that could have come from your presented topic >derail the thread with falseflagging and schizo posts >then start trying to spam it to death anyway as though you still got your ass handed to you What compels a person to be so asspained over a comic character that he turns into this.
>>448783 As soon as I saw pic related I knew we were in for WORDS WORDS WORDS from our special friend. >>448786 I have to agree, even if he continues arguing with himself and spamming, not engaging at least makes me feel better. It is massively frustrating though. Still, I was going to post Gonterman's Sally Protest comic so you've all earned a reprieve at least! >>448793 Sonic tends to attract the most interesting people. The plus side is we get interesting conversations, but it also attracts some genuinely unhinged loons
>>448794 >Still, I was going to post Gonterman's Sally Protest comic so you've all earned a reprieve at least! Unknowingly and completely unintentionally, Ashfag helped us avoid a bullet.
>>448785 No shade meant for the people who actually ship them, but it was rather comforting to see that the one anon to seemingly support Shadally was completely unhinged.
>>448797 That's the problem, the interesting discourse gets drowned out. Still ,it's nice to see some anons supporting rare ships >>448798 I like her reboot outfit, but prefer it on Elias
>>448793 >What compels a person to be so asspained over a comic character that he turns into this. Attention. There are some people that need some kind of acknowledgement. Good or bad, anything that has people responding to them in some way. That's why Boco does what he does. That's why shitposting and trolling threads are so common on the board. Once someone figures out how to get maximum responses they'll keep doing it. The plus side to an IDW thread on /co/ is that it's a much better target and many other anons will happily argue regardless of how obvious the bait is. That's why even calling a shitposter out isn't going to work because they'll eat it up and ask for more.
Hell, I need attention. Being a storytimer with interactions with anons tells me that I'm not wasting my time posting for just myself. Some indicator showing how many anons are viewing the thread without posting would be a good alternative but those replies help bump the thread and show that there are people reading.
>>448802 Over time, I learned that just a few comment is enough to encourage an artist. Any time I see something that I like, I try to make a comment and try for it to be insightful and point out out a detail that I can guess the artist considered important. Nailing that can easily send a significant amount of endorphin in their brain.
>>448801 IDW threads being such good targets really draws the worst kind of attention away from other Sonic threads, from what I've found. It's why whenever one isn't up, you'll usually get Boco, Ashfag, and IDWkun spamming us instead. Making a new thread to bait them in is probably a sound tactic to divert them from actually good discussion, but I'm pretty sure they're also jumping between threads constantly.
>>448802 There's a reason I try to interact with the threads as much as I can. It's depressing not having anyone engage with the effort you put in.
Apologizes for the sudden interrogation, but seeing the chit-chat of previous thread regarding the aging past forums and moreover legacy communities and old users and such, it reminds me: for these here who have been on the Sonic fandom for the longest time (and whatnot), has any of you ever meet a Rotor enthusiast before? Someone else who further their most favoritism on Rotor, generally or relative to.
Sounds something odd to ask, but the curiosity of me is very hungry. Might explain how come I turned to be identified.
>>448802 If not reading and/or sneakpeeking onto today's comic you're hosting, most definitely I see your threads and your general endeavor as very benefiting, as they make for a good market-share of new fanarts and such to exchange, show and archive. Your threads are great to, for example, lend more exposition to an artist or two I love.
>>448807 >Rotor supports you as dearly as ever! Thank you! I always appreciate your posts and it's a shame they get deleted all the time for some reason. The threads need as much positivity and yet the shitposts get to stick around and fester.
>>448809 Rotoranon gets deleted because one of the jannies/mods has had it in for him for years. Most likely IDWkun given his meltdowns whenever anything Archie-related pops up.
>>448811 Yup. Both the "REEE CREAM AND TAILS AREN'T A THING" and the post shitting on Amy make it way too obvious. Pretty certain it's IDWkun this time instead, but they're basically the same thing at this point.
>>448802 I can relate, it's why I always try to keep the energy up in the threads, even if I can't make it to all of them live. As for the actual audience, rule of thumb is 1:10 posters to lurkers. I think we do much better though since I get 1,000-2,000 visitors to the website when I announce an update, and the daily visitors almost never dip below 100. I've never mentioned the site outside of these threads so they're probably not coming from anywhere else. I'm guessing most lurkers don't visit the site so we might have an audience of at least 5,000. Kinda terrifying! >>448803 These comics continue to be adorable >>448804 That's really nice of you. I'm too nervous to interact with artists outside of the threads so I just favorite their art >>448806 The diversion threads generally work well, but these creatures are terminally online. I worked out how many posts Boco had made on 4chan and tumblr and it was staggering. It's more than a full time job! >>448807 Nice to see you're still around Rotor-bro! Your perseverance in the face of the ridiculous jannies is an inspiration to us all! >>448815 Nice! It's too bad he doesn't seem to draw guy on guy pairings. I'd definitely commission some Sonknux degeneracy
>>448821 No one in the artwork's comments has, and I don't think he has a twitter. Personally I don't interact with the artists unless they post in the threads, but others are certainly free to ask him
>>448828 Fuck, that one made me laugh so hard I'm actually crying! I had to find out what the original was and it's Axel in Harlem. Fair warning, after they get out of the elevator it's straight (lol) up porn https://archive.org/details/Axel-in-Harlem
>>448831 >>448832 I saw that and decided to have a protest, a Sally Protest if you will. Enjoy! That janny's pretty much the Claude Frollo of our threads. His boner compels him!
>>448844 >All the world's gems are mine! walks straight into a lamp post >>448845 Barry: Why does he keep bending over to look for clues, and why does my nose keep bleeding? >>448846 It's so good! One of the thinks I love about KrazyELF's work is every character gets their own body type, where even Sonic and Shadow have different builds. For Tails, not only is he always drawn older, but he's always drawn with an 11/10 butt. I don't think any of the other characters even come close to its majesty. Unfortunately some of the recent ones have been giving him breasts, which I'm (obviously) not a fan of
>>448861 Sorry about that, I wanted to brush up on my bbcodes and wasn't sure which worked. Thanks for taking me off the naughty list. On the upside, at least you know the automoderation's working after the upgrade!
>>448862 >On the upside, at least you know the automoderation's working after the upgrade! Oh, that filter always worked, it blocks thousands of spam. Not sure if it should've caused a ban though...
>>448863 That's good to know. As a user I never see any spam on this site so it's easy to forget how much garbage is trying to get in. Thanks for sorting it out so promptly. If I might make a suggestion, it would be really helpful to have a short description of the keyboard shortcuts and how to post cross thread and cross board. Something like the "file allowance (replies):" blurb that shows up when you hover over the file selector. Maybe a little question mark next to the "Toggle poster info" button or the "Spoiler" button >Not sure if it should've caused a ban though... Not to worry, you can't say you're a proper imageboard user unless you've been banned at least once!
>>448864 >If I might make a suggestion, it would be really helpful to have a short description of the keyboard shortcuts and how to post cross thread and cross board. It's on the todo list, but it's very low priority and hasn't been needed because our users all know how imageboards work (also there's a sticky on /baw/ with the shortcuts). This has been the first false positive since the past three or so years, and the first one ever to trigger the bbcode url filter specifically.
>Something like the "file allowance (replies):" blurb that shows up when you hover over the file selector. Maybe a little question mark next to the "Toggle poster info" button or the "Spoiler" button Also has been considered, but there's no good place to put it without concerns of accessibility or it being just plain annoying.
>>448878 The mermaid should be black. oh wait, Knuckles is supposed to be one (Jamaican, dreadlocks, hip-hop music on his stages, his primary traits are being dumb and having huge physical strength).
>>448866 Cool, thanks for considering my suggestion. No worries, I can relate to having an ever increasing pile of todos. >the first one ever to trigger the bbcode url filter specifically I feel honored! >there's no good place to put it Yeah, I can see it throwing off the balance of the reply box >>448868 That's really cute >>448869 Thanks again translator-bro! Looking at the amount of dialogue, it really was a massive task >>448874 Eh, even if Bean disappears again, I'll find their new account. It's not like I didn't find the previous ones >>448877 Still would! >>448879 Knuckles was originally going to have a Jamaican accent and uses the Jamaican flag's colors for his shoes. As of Sonic Adventure you could say he's culturally Mayan. There's also a large Japanese diaspora in Brazil so you could say he's Brazilian too. >>448880 Dark skinned(furred?) Mobians should be referred to as Gamecubian instead of black
>>448887 I like to think they're wearing thigh-high stockings >>448888 Konductor no! >>448890 Still would >>448897 I wonder if some people actually do get nosebleeds when aroused >>448898 So many deletions today, they must have cut the janny's pay again
After seeing the responses to the Shadow and Cream image, I do wonder if I should do the stuff from SaluteYourCat. They do a lot of Marine stuff with Blaze as well. Very good artist with a particular interest but I wouldn't call their work NSFW although I wouldn't be surprised if there was NSFW stuff by them posted elsewhere.
>>448904 To be fair, bullying you is fun! I've had a look through SaluteYourCat's art and maybe I'm just being smooth brained but I don't really see anything wrong with it. Sure Blaze and Marine are naked (and barefoot), but they don't appear to be posed lewdly. If it were Sonic and Tails instead I wouldn't even have given it a second thought. As for other accounts, there's nothing by that name on FurAffinity or InkBunny. SauceNao also only returns his DeviantArt when I reverse image search. Oh, and I'm around 1/3 through issue 3 of Sonic Anarchy. I think I'm actually getting the hang of lettering!
>>448894 This thread reminded me that I know a sort of Shadouge porn comic, except Rouge is obvious, Shadow is a simp Knuckles and Rouge are oblivious, Amy is a user, Sonic is a moron who lack basic empathy and Sally is a "he doesn't mean it" girl.
All in all not a joyful comic. But porn. don't know if you already see what I am talking about or is even interested.
>>448894 Storytiming Archie issue 241 and I'm noticing I'm not bumping the thread. It's going to be funny if our friend hit the thread with an autosage just because I did this.
>>448907 Nah, it's fine. Thread stop bumping when it's the same poster who do it several time. Can get annoying during a storytime, but at least it indicate no one is interested.
>>448907 So I wasn't able to bump the thread but someone else was able to. I know OPs can't bump their own threads in the first couple hours or so but I've never seen it happen again almost 24 hours later.
>>448908 But that doesn't happen with other storytime threads. For example the Ultimate storytime threads never have that issue. Maybe when I adopted the name it triggered.
>>448910 It's just that others probably posted to and it reset the bumping. I got that myselft sometimes when I was trying to storytime Sluggy Freelance
You are the OP, after all. I think the IP can remain the same after less than 24 hours.
>>448911 That would mean the OP, who is able to bump their own thread after a couple hours, is no longer bumping their own thread if they start posting multiple times in succession. I do want to know about all the things that start and stop bumping because that's new to me.
>>448912 From what I get, I do'nt think it's even OP related. The same poster making several posts in a row ends up not being able to bump anymore, no matter who. I think it reset after some time, but don't quote me on that, there.
>>448913 The OP in the Ultimate threads starts a thread, waits 15 minutes and resets their IP, so when they start posting they are counted as a second poster and is able to bump the thread instead of having to wait hours to do so. I've seen it just them posting for hours and it still getting bumped. It's doing that right now. That's why my instance of storytiming 241 is so weird. I've paid attention to bumping and storytimes trying to figure out what's going on and how it works. I still don't understand everything but I've not seen what happened to me happen elsewhere before. Not under the same or similar conditions. At this point I'm only curious.
>>448915 >and is able to bump the thread instead of having to wait hours to do so. I've seen it just them posting for hours and it still getting bumped. It's doing that right now Oh? so it's an OP thing only? I was never sure about that before.
But yes, from personal experience, waiting time of 2 hours is not enough if you make several posts in a row. Don't know how much, though.
>>448913 >The same poster making several posts in a row ends up not being able to bump anymore, no matter who. I never noticed that, though it's true that I haven't storytimed anything on 4chan since years.
the last time I did, I had to specifically make the OP thread in another session, so it would still bump when I post the pages. I think I got an entire comic posted that way with the thread still being bumped, which would mean that only the OP poster can't bump his own thread. Don't know if they added extra rules to it so multiple posters can't bump either, I did this 5+ years ago. The captcha and the 1 minute bump times make it too fucking annoying to storytime anything, it takes a fucking hour even assuming I don't miss the post queue.
>>448906 We've got a lewd thread here if you'd like to post it: >>>/pco/459449 >>448915 It used to be that you could just start a thread on mobile and then do the rest on your computer, but I've found I'm rangebanned from posting images sonic mobile internet shares IPs. I'd buy a pass if I wasn't diametrically opposed to giving 4chan money >>448919 That's what really pisses me off about 4chan, it's the lack of transparency and communication. If the staff would get out of their ERP sessions on IRC and just tell us what the rules are about stuff like this things would be a lot better
>>448925 tummy/10! >>448926 >What kind of fabric does that? Lycra, latex, and (wet) cotton can all show navels. Really anything thin enough stretched tight enough will do. Ideally you'll want a sheer fabric to get a better look
NSFW!Censored because visible nipple and suggestive situation. Almost explicit enough it should better be on /pco/? I think it just fly under the bar. Sorry if it's not the case.
>>448930 >https://www.deviantart.com/bluearcher69 I've got a script that archives every artist's account on the website. I usually run it every few days but I might make it run automatically. I don't have the instagram stuff since I kept getting rangebanned. Might try it again soon
>Nicol was created by Tails and Wave to be the Resistance's own AI, responsible for hacking, information gathering, and other forms of sabotage. However, she eventually encountered her Regime counterpart: the System Administration and Global Encryption unit. Their confrontation in cyberspace was so devastating that most cities around the world were left "off-grid" for an entire week afterward. No Bigdad I do not like this.

Why can't I post this comic over on 4chan? Because Amy's in a bikini. Welcome to Obama's Republic of Hitlerstan. Anyway, this is Sonic and Tails Summer!
>>448983 Hey, do you like cute and funny girls? Don't call the police just yet! Check out these comics first! Starting with a four page comic called The True Blue Miracle Fruit.
>>448987 >it' a shrinking episode Too bad I am not really into that. Weird it needed for both of them to eat the fruit for it to activate. At least it seemed to taste good.
>>448997 And that's the last page for now. They seem to come out slowly so it might be a while for more to come out. Now for something that hopefully won't get me in trouble with the law.
>>449000 >>449001 The part that should raise some concern is that it seems to have happened enough time that Tails is able to recognise whose hand is petting his butt.
>>449011 Decided to look a bit more and found the artist for this. They're the same artist as the Nivven (not to be confused with Niven Zone AU) comic. Here's three pages.
>>449021 A debug string was left turned on in the spam detection, so it was my fault. The up side is that it pointed out some weird things that were not handled in the code.
It also seems pretty effective as we haven't gotten any CP spam for almost two weeks now.
>>449022 No worries, anything to help with the debugging, even if unintentional! I know it's a bit of a thankless task securing this site against the onslaught of those that don't want places like this to exist. Thanks again for providing us such a comfy place to talk about our favorite blue rat, and great to hear your filters are working!
https://twitter.com/alrgwoodnbadger/status/1656247339437412352 I think animation takes too much time to make, especially if you're trying to make a series. But 3D animation can be done faster and easier and we need more 3D models that aren't those fucking horrible muscle porn models used in SFM videos. Stuff like this gives me hope.
>>448972 Cute little comic, even if it's they're pretty out of character >>448984 This is a really odd one. The art's nice, and while they're never posed erotically, I still feel uncomfortable reading it >>449000 These are definitely pervy, but still pretty cute >>449009 I can see why you didn't post them over there. Very handsome Sonic and Shadow though! >>449015 These are drawn by JhonsSecret, a really good artist that draws fantastic Mobian twinks. He's actually the boyfriend(husband?) of the one that created the Nivven AU. Her twitter's here: https://twitter.com/nivven Oh, and pic related's one of my favorite pieces by her I totally would all three >>449024 I'm actually planning on using 3d models to do the posing when I eventually start a fancomic, can't fuck up proportions or perspective if you've got math on your side! >those fucking horrible muscle porn models There's nothing more erotic than two grotesque SFM models awkwardly clipping into each other! Seriously though, some of the models coming out now are seriously nice looking
>People are too hard on this, it's funny. Seeing a character who can genuinely exasperate Sonic if they so choose is just a really fun dynamic. I see stuff like this on twitter and I don't get it. I know twitter is horrible and full of weird takes but if I lived and breathed Sonamy I would never want stuff like this to come up. Even worse trying to spin this some weird way like it's a good thing for my ship. It'd be like me posting an image and Sonic and Sally arguing or her slapping him and saying "aawwww they're so cute!" The difference being that Sonic and Sally have also been a canon couple complete with hand holding, making lovey dovey eyes at each other, and kissing. But Sonic and Amy, especially at this time, has none of that. And this just annoys me about Sega during this time. The absolute dumping on this "ship" for the longest time is why a lot of Sonamy comics from the 2000s and 2010s are toxic and weird as fuck. I'm so annoyed and this isn't even my ship.
I won't bring this up in the main thread because those are volatile for the smallest of reasons and shitposterkun is back at it in there.
>>449025 >>449026 >>449027 There are some non-fucked up 3D models like the ones that TheFunniPixelMan uses. As someone that doesn't like static 3D comics, these do look good. I know they released a model for all their variants of Sally. Maybe others they use are available. Of course you can avoid the chubby Sallys. There should be normal Sally models included.
>>449028 Well, for a long time, that's all they really had. Sonic X didn't help either, aside from a few episodes and that's what the games were synergising with. The best you can do with that is having a Sonic to shy to admit his feeling, but you can only do so much with that.
It's only recently they got a better dynamic and even there, SoJ is trying to backctrack on it with its dubbing.
>>449028 And I guess some actually enjoy the more Will E. Coyote and Roadrunner dynamic between the two. At least, there, unlike Pewpew, Sonic is not subjected to something abject and is in a position where is not subject to the whim of someone he find abhorrent, like Pepe le Pew and Hershey (don't know the actual name of the Tex Avery cat, won't bother to look it up).
But that's something for people who enjoy the comedy aspect of it, not the romantic one.
>>449026 Very nice! And they even have removable shoes and gloves! >>449028 Yeah, I get what the writers were going for with them but it just doesn't work well (at least not out of CD). It wasn't until Unleashed and Boom that the relationship started to go somewhere that wasn't awful. I still find that image hilarious though >>449029 I'll have to look into that too! I'd mostly be using them to get the posing and proportions right since that's what I have the most trouble with >>449035 Might as well repost my calculations:
Sigh. She's a 28E. Her breast diameter's 4.45cm, which gives a volume of 368cm^3. Her underboob is 11.5x10.9cm, which gives a circumference of 70.6cm or 27.8", assuming an ellipsoid. Using the volume and underboob diameter we arrive at a 28E in US bra sizing.
>>449038 lmao >>449042 Couldn't find it on his twitter or our threads
>>449062 Fine! Assuming a breast radius of 5.567 cm from the official art, we have a volume of 722.7 ml. Rouge's underbust is 26" so she'd be a 26F. These would definitely have to be custom made, and officially beats out Lanolin! They're actually about the same size, but Rouge has a narrower waist. I think we all know ABT's Vanilla's the real winner though >>449063 In hindsight, using the 3d model would've been much easier
>>449064 I do think that comparing ABT's Rouge to Lanolin is the best way to compare. And his Vanilla is a titty monster as well. I wonder if he has a ranking or what he feels are the actual measurements for all busts. Now I want a boob chart that does its best to be accurate to the source material or at least how ABT has drawn the characters.
>>449066 Yeah, that would've been the better comparison. Here's the Lanolin reference I used. It's by ABT, but I think we all know he makes them bigger in the comic >>449067 No worries. I'm literally incapable of not answering math questions ;_; >Well, no surprise, there. Norgate really does let Tails get all the girls! >>449068 Vanilla's pretty flat in the official art, but never with ABT on the case!
>>449071 Yeah, gotta keep things modest for the licensees. The SA2 model's got nothing on the giggle physics of the Olympic games! >>449072 I knew he drew Vanilla bigger than Rouge!
>>449078 oh, I see. Nice one. You'd think that a sports bra would specifically make it bounce less... but then, the heart shaped chest plate should tone it down even more if it's a solid piece.
>>449084 That's why I generally try to comment on risqué images, so anons can see the amount of special attention our threads get. It's also why I highlight deleted posts on the website
>>449090 That was a fun thread, sorry I keep missing them >>449091 Maybe they're going by the old Hollywood rules. There needs to be at least one foot on the floor for any bedroom scenes! >>449092 >Big titty girl with fake cat ears and a tail, completely okay >Big titty girl with real bat ears and a tail, absolutely haram I'm honestly more surprised they're letting any risqué images of adult women stay up, furry or otherwise. Lewds of obviously underage characters seem to be perfectly fine over there though, I guess the mods are too busy with their ERPs on IRC >>449095 Sorry to hear that, they really are jerks. They always give out these short bans so you can't appeal and let the higher ups know how shit the mods are >>449096 It really is a nice piece of art. Eggman's number one source of HR complaints does look good in leather!
Noticing this a bit late after the fact, but is it still okay to point and laugh? Just here, I mean, not on DA itself. Or would that still be too mean-spirited? Almost considering this to just be a troll,but the reaction seems genuine...
Anyway, congratulation on your milestone. guess you'll also make a mention of it this evening...
>>449099 If that said Apr 16, 1993 I'd have believed it. The more things change, the more they stay the same! >Anyway, congratulation on your milestone. guess you'll also make a mention of it this evening... If you're talking about the website, thanks! That's us passed 250k visitors! I'm getting close to being able to release my overhaul of the threads. Soon the 4chan and plus thread archives will be completely integrated, where links on one site will be treated as replies on the other! Also working on thread search functionality. Soon we'll be able to search for text in the posts and inside the images (I've OCR'd every single image, which almost melted my computer)
>>449100 >If you're talking about the website, thanks! That's us passed 250k visitors! Well, congrat on that too, but I was talking about the Konductor's Deviant Art account (the screencap was from that homepage), that has reached more than 500 watchers. Sorry, I should have been clearer about that.
> Soon we'll be able to search for text in the posts and inside the images (I've OCR'd every single image, which almost melted my computer) that will be impressive if that work. I keep admiring the dedication.
>>449101 >Konductor's Deviant Art account Oh, whoops! I only check that comic on Patreon and in the threads Kongrats Konductor, 500 watchers and 10k pageviews in such a short time is impressive! >that will be impressive if that work. I keep admiring the dedication. Thanks! I'm really happy with how it's turned out
>>449099 I had someone say the same thing to me but I just ignored them. Maybe it's the same person but I didn't even care to remember their name. I've seen people on twitter say "even though I hate the ship, nice art" and then there was that image of someone posting a bunch of backhand compliments with a kid crying. Some people just can't help saying they don't like something.
>>449103 >I had someone say the same thing to me Well, yeah, it's a screncap from your mobius-comics DA page. It's probably that very one. >Some people just can't help saying they don't like something. What dothey think the internet is for?
>>448671 Get ready for romance drama, Shadow assholery, and lots of cleavage! Seriously, this comic is horny as fuck without going NSFW. I’m doing the first two chapters today and the rest tomorrow. This is Give in to Me!
>>449123 Whoops! >>449122 >Also, Rob won't like the idea of his cousin being forced into ruling a kingdom. This Mercia seems to be another planet or something.
>>449131 These two pages are on the artist's inkbunny account. I don't know why. They're nowhere near as lewd as the other stuff on there. Like Amy getting DP'd by Shadow and Sonic. And the many other pictures of Amy getting banged by Shadow.
>>449140 I have no idea. You'd think there was a comic before this. Actually there is but I don't know if it's related to this series. This is the first series on the artist's DA page.
>>449147 So at this point just pretend the first part never happened. We're going with this storyline. Here's hoping Shadow doesn't make an ass of himself again.
>>449108 I remember this one, shame on you for not posting the Penders-tier family trees! >>449113 This is Sailor Moon AF! >>449117 >ENTER SHADOW With pleasure! >>449128 Claiming that guard! >>449132 >Like Amy getting DP'd by Shadow and Sonic It's not fair ;_; >>449137 I hear it's quite the popular trend! >>449142 >accused of setting an orfanage on fire Finally, some relatable characters! >>449144 >So, we're now in the past to undo the previous 29 pages of this comic. Fucking timetravel >>449147 Knuckles! >>449149 For someone who likes Amy, Shadow sure is spending a lot of time eyefucking Slutnic >>449154 That's our Slutnic! >>449155 Tails is so confident in this >>449158 Claiming this smug shit too! >>449170 Damn it Jerkdow, do better! >>449173 lmao Sally's getting buff and Sonic's getting architected >>449174 This is hilariously fucked up. I do feel bad for Tails though
>>449178 >I remember this one, shame on you for not posting the Penders-tier family trees! Maybe I'll get around to it. So much tits and toxic sluttiness to get through first.
>>449174 >>449175 >>Buff girls Buff girl with Fat boy. I am so used to see Fat Sally comic I didn't saw that one coming. And I don't like that it did things to me by surprise.
btw, while the png file was smaller than 12mb, it look like the website refused to make a new post. I clicked on the little "v", the upload progress bar reahed completion, the post box disappeared, but then no new post.
Seems I have worked it out by converting to jpg and thus making the file smaller.
>>449198 By the way, this might be one of the most nonsensical reason to time travel. Shadow kidnapping of Amy >>449121 lead to him badly hurting her, >>449123 But she still forgive him (??) and doesn't hate him anymore Yet he still want to go back in time within the day to undo all that. >>449131 Which Sparkly Hair OC agree with, so that Amy would be more agreeable to her plan (!!!), Amy personal development of the day be damned >>449136 >>449140
And now, instead, Shadow behave like a complete dickhead, >>449164 >>449165 >>449166 act as if she was still in the same agreeable state as before time travel ans sexually assault her(?????) >>449167 >>449168 >>449170 WAY TO FIX YOU MISTAKES, SHADOW! WHAT WAS THE POINT OF ALL THIS?
>>449201 This is the artist's kink. This is a Shadamy comic and that's the ship they drew the most porn of. So the artist likes an abusive yet loving partner. Also big cocks.
>>449202 I am completly invested in Colour of Chaos and Amy's Family (and I guess you can even include Sonic Nexus in that list), so I am not the best placed to judge, but at least those represent the abuses as something clearly negative, not as somehow romantic. Not entirely sure this make me any better, though. to each their own, I guess...
>>449203 >shadow kidnaps and almost kills amy >is apologetic and wants to undo the damage he did >so he goes to the past to stop his past self from doing it >only for the other shadow to abuse amy in another You'd think the first Shadow would pass along some message to his past self to not be a douchebag. Amy and him shared a bed before he flipped on her. She was totally going to bang him if he acted like his normal grumpy self. And she's still going to be hot for him because that's this story's ship. This is some 50 Shades of Shadow bullshit.
>>449204 Nothing wrong with finding a story with gross elements enthralling if it's presented as something bad. The main problem is that the comic starts with completely OOC rape for three chapters and then in the fourth one it tries to play it straight with the other characters. That's a whole other kind of bullshit.
>>449206 >The main problem is that the comic starts with completely OOC rape for three chapters and then in the fourth one it tries to play it straight with the other characters. Wait, does that means you have seen the missing page of the 1rst chapter that is incomplete on her DA? https://www.deviantart.com/natsumi-nyan/gallery/52325734/give-into-me
>>449207 >https://natsumi-nyan.tumblr.com/post/144734065029/gitm-reborn-pg25-bruh-xd I tried to scroll through that tumblr and it was a mess. Thanks for finding and posting it. >Wait, does that means you have seen the missing page of the 1rst chapter that is incomplete on her DA? I was talking about Colour of Chaos. That comic takes a huge ass 180 in chapter 4.
>>449209 >I tried to scroll through that tumblr and it was a mess. there was no link to it but I added /archive to her tumblr address to have https://natsumi-nyan.tumblr.com/archive (good thing all tumblr pages have the same structure, even when the user chose to not feature them).
It made it easier to scroll through her tumblr logs and spot her own contents among her reblog. then I clicked on the hastags, which, when you do that on a user page on tumblr, only return result from that user.
>I was talking about Colour of Chaos Okay, the sentence make more sense, now. And it seems rather clear to me that Chapter 4 is meant as an interlude before things take a turn for the worse again.
>>449233 What do you know? It's the awkward way Amy was aged up in the Archie comics because they were forced to do so to make her look like her Sonic Adventure version!
>>449239 I like how Shadow is pissed because he wants Amy but knowing she aged herself up is making him mad that he was chasing after an underage girl that was really underage.
>>449248 Sonic wasn't getting into Amy until she stopped pursuing and possibly when her breasts and hips were getting bigger. Just a hunch on that last bit.
>>449254 >hey kids, did you know that your father was about to break up with me permanently until i was pregnant with both you? >>449252 I can see Max being the one eating popcorn this time.
>>449255 And that's the last we see of these two. On the one hand, relationship saved. On the other hand, the way they were treating each other before... ehhhh... I'll take the W.
>>449255 >>449257 >Sonic and Sally deliver the good news >Alicia, Bernie and Jules are ecstatic about being grandparents >Max is frantically looking for the shotgun not knowing Elias hid it.
>>449216 >female author created an AU where it's easier for women to abuse men Ahhh, yes, the cloud Foxes I can actually understand where such fantasy is coming from, but also >Love's curses isn't a dark or dangerous type of magic IT'S RAPE, WOMAN! At least own your shit...

Well, isn't that an healthy and solid basis to rebuild a relationship? I give them 3 month.
You were asking in the main thread what comic had made us the maddest and I think this one is at least in the top 5.
The dissonance in how happy and genuinely elated Sally seems to be about what is actually a very fucked up resolution really is the cherry on the top. Like you can actually see the author want Sally to have an happy conclusion, but that's what she comes up with. Anyway, I still hope things work out for them (not that it look like this comic will have more updates...)
>>449151 Sonic is often jealous in these. Despite, y'know, treating Amy like shit for years until she started drawing away from him in the first place.
>>449266 >Knuckles wants a livestream >Tails wants to record it >Sally is seething >Rouge wants in >Cream is somewhat aghast but isn't really judging >Vector is broken >Charmy is making hashtags Out of these, Knuckles, Tails, Rouge, and Cream are probably the only decent ones.

>>449303 If I was a desperate attention seeking shitposter I'd stick to the thread with 10x the number of posters than ours. The return investment is a no-brainer.
>>449304 It's so bizarre. He knows the IDW threads are easy mining but still comes to ours even though we ignore him
Sorry to hear about having to cut back to one page a week for your comic. I just sent you a message on Patreon. Still happy to keep supporting the comic for the foreseeable future. Issue 50 or bust!
>>449305 Thanks and I replied. Maybe I could've pushed harder but I don't like doing that, doubly so for fan content. I always made it known that money would help but that's the most I'll do. My dream of putting out a Sonic issue a month will have to wait for another day.
>>449306 Cool! Eh, I'd have done the same thing in that situation. Sometimes pushing too hard can cause its own problems. >My dream of putting out a Sonic issue a month will have to wait for another day. Now that'd be awesome, fingers crossed! It'll be interesting to see what the support's like in another year or so >>449307 The brown ragged cloak works so well for brooding edgy characters. They even used it in Kill La Kill!
>>449302 I'd give the benefit of the doubt, as it look more like the same person continuing the same train of thought with no actual disagreement, so it's not really arguing with a fake-self, but it is unnecessary flooding for a point no one disagree with.
Okay, now he is arguing that today's comic is a bad depiction of Tails.
Can't believe I would ever reach the point where I just ignore the troll with shit takes, but somehow, this anon has managed to do that for me in those last few months.
It's likely it was brought to your attention too, but just in case, look at what was just dropped: https://www.deviantart.com/boreasth/gallery/87700051/grow-up In case the title make you raise a eyebrow, it's just fun and play and I don't think there is anything meant to be suggestive in it, but it's still a macro comic, indeed. At least it's not the usual suspects.
Looks like BCB got the same kind of attention we get. >>>/4chan/co/137335484 I'm willing to bet it's the same person but not sure what triggered them this time since the BCB threads haven't been given any trouble before.
>>449331 Well the artist behind BCB did do Sonic fancomics and we all know how the janny feels about those. Seriously though, I'm surprised they were allowed up considering the jannies' hateboner for anything anthro, even if they don't break the rules. Out Of Placers threads have been confined to trash for ages now, even though there's nothing lewd.
Not that I expect them to be able to read, but GR3 is about 'anthropomorphic ("furry") pornography' not anthro art in general
>>449332 >Not that I expect them to be able to read, but GR3 is about 'anthropomorphic ("furry") pornography' not anthro art in general I've gotten hit with the "pornography" tag for things that aren't pornographic at all. Steamy at most. That's all the mod needs to strike something down. Even bikinis aren't allowed.
>>449334 Same, I've even got banned for posting Mobians with lewd expressions but no genitals, and sometimes they're even clothed! They just use it as an excuse to remove anything they don't like, which is pretty much anything anthro
>>449332 >Seriously though, I'm surprised they were allowed up considering the jannies' hateboner for anything anthro BCB kinda is legacy content. Its presence is justified by just having been there for years, now.
We're once again getting pretty close to that file limit which is 352. I still have the Sonamy Choice comic to do and that's 100+ pages so that will likely be what I'll use to start the next thread. >>449343 Yeah that would get taken down fast.
>make an obvious sonic oc >make it not a sonic oc >big boobs, almost always barefoot >plenty of fan service and nudes >looks like she fucks human men It does seem like the future some artists take when they want to do something original but not entirely abandon the aesthetic. >>449345 Not sure. Maybe the admin will let us know when they pop by again.
>>449338 I get what you mean, although considering it's a non-lewd comic it should be fine regardless >>449344 We seem to be filling them up faster and faster! >>449345 It's not binary, that'd be 256 or 512. With imageboards it's generally an arbitrary limit, although it could be that things start slowing when there are that many images >>449346 It's a cute design, and I do enjoy it when artists get shamelessly self-indulgent >>449347 His latest pages are truly horrifying
MY FUCKING SIDES ARE IN ORBIT AHAHAHAHAHAHA HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BOI >autistic janny actively shits up the thread with his autism >has massive melty when ignored >deletes perfectly normal images Never forget he does it for free
>>449356 lol, Tails schizo really is a janny! He's not got me yet, so the Sonknux posting will continue until morale improves! For those that want to see: >>>/4chan/co/137364904 >>449357 Evil can only cower in the face of good!
>>>/4chan/co/137362090 I feel like this post is what kicked off the shitfest. Before I went to sleep I saw the post this was replying to and ignored it. And then someone kicked the hornet's nest. I also noticed there's 40+ IPs. Either our friend went crazy pretending he was other people or there was an invite in another thread to join us.
>>449359 Actually, looking at all the replies to that post, most of them are actually decent answer and none of them devolve into any real shitposting.
No, from what I can tell, what started it all was this one actually innocent enough post: >>>/4chan/co/137361750 as our little friend can't help but go into a PTSD reaction the moment Sonic is presented as some sort bigger brother to tails. Especially this answer >>>/4chan/co/137362954
He had the same reaction in that other thread when Tails didn't immediately kicked the ass of the sky pirates. It seems he just can't handle Tails being depicted in any other form than being better than everyone else.
>>449361 The whole thing with Tails did turn it into a mess but before that I see the posts complaining about ships and that one Shadaze post and then it swerves into complaining about Tails. It's probably everything but I swear that early post complaining about shipping was the first attempt. Even if the replies are innocent, whatever it takes to keep the ball rolling is enough for the shitposter. Then again he could've gotten no bites after a while and just resorted to replying to himself over Tails.
>>449361 My man has chip on his shoulder, like, I get where his frustration comes from but they way the whole thing escalated from such an innocuous post is just silly. Seems borderline obsessive.
>>449364 He always acts like this. Pretty certain it's the exact same shit over on /sthg/ too with him - any time Tails is portrayed as not being instantly knowledgeable in all things and completely independent, he has a violent schizophrenic meltdown.
>>449362 He was definitely samefagging. My reply was the second post >>449361 lists, and I immediately got two posts back-to-back that are essentially him saying the same shit.
>>449368 >Wait, is the girl on the right his OC, or has she had some comic appearance? The image is from a commission stream so I'm assuming it's the commissioner's OC.
Out of curiosity, Conductor, is there a reason you only ever made Percy Day from Jayfoxfire? (unless I missed the other ones?) Admittedly, these two early comics are a bit rough and in need of clean up, hasn't the best writing either, but it's not really worse than "As it Was", all things considered.
>>449359 >I also noticed there's 40+ IP That's our schizo! He loves rotating IPs when he sockpuppets. You can generally tell it's him since he has a pretty distinct writing style. I wonder if the mods have had to give him another stern talking to. I hope they didn't cut his pay again!
So do we think it's IDWkun/archieschizo/pixy or do we have another unhinged janny that likes to sockpuppet?
>>449361 >>449364 >>449365 I'm not exactly thrilled about Tails' characterization from colors onward either but he's just so unhinged and repetitive in his responses >>449362 >Shadaze Yeah, there's one guy that gets upset over who Shadow gets paired with >>449368 >but this upset me. I'm just gonna pretend they're gloves
>>449372 Not the Konductor, but I've personally been waiting for Family Life 6 to drop since the earlier ones are supposed to be reuploaded along with it (they got copyright striked before I could archive them). Hoping to convert them into comics when they're released
>>449372 I've looked at some of the comics from them and posted one comic to see if anyone was interested in it. IIRC nobody showed interest and I didn't find them that interesting. I'll take another look and maybe do another short comic if I find one I think would go over well.
>>449379 I have bookmarked comics that I don't post because I don't think anyone would be interested. Some are saved on my computer, some are bookmarked in a folder labeled "don't feel like posting" and others I know of but didn't even bother bookmarking. I have a comic that I saved a while back that is literally "Home Alone but the family is replaced with a kid version of Chuck and Jules and their parents." It sounds more interesting than it is. Small resolution, comic ends before the actual plot starts, and it was obviously written by someone that had Google translate it into English. One day I'll post it when I need something to fill space in a thread.
>>449380 >I have a comic that I saved a while back that is literally "Home Alone but the family is replaced with a kid version of Chuck and Jule Tails was RIGHT THERE!
>autistic janny watches the thread like a hawk So how long until they fire and hire new jannies? because this is tiresome. If someone can pinpoint when this shitter started fucking up our threads that would be nice.
>>449394 >So how long until they fire and hire new jannies? Don't hold your breath. Mods do not care and he only make 3 days bans so that he never rise the attention of someone who actually might.
>>449394 We've been dealing with them for over a year. The post is still on desuarchive, will be on the Unofficial Ride website, and will get posted here. The mod accomplishes nothing.
>>449400 It will if enough people kick up a stink, it's just unfortunate (and a blessing) that we don't have a lot of anons in the storytime threads, at least compared to when the ride first started. Not to mention something like the Tamer threads which have a lot of unique IPs.
>>449402 I'm just going to say that there's a reason why the LobCorp threads came back to /v/ it's because that faggot Abib got told to fuck off and stop purging them. If enough people report this shit faggot of a jannie/mod/whatever he will eventually get removed or disciplined.
>>449394 I've used the feedback form a few times, but I don't think they care >>449397 >I can't believe the mod is into older men At least he's got good taste! >>449398 It's up one the website now! Sorry I keep missing all the threads. >>449400 That's because they're too busy ERPing >>449402 The moderation's always been bad, but it's gotten significantly worse over the last several years and it is having an effect on post volume. Looking at the graph, 4chan's co will be a ghost town in 3-5 years unless things change. And that's ignoring the fact that post volume has been inflated by bots in the last few years. Ultimately, every forum/irc channel/imageboard/etc that allows shit moderators dies a slow death. 4chan of all places should know this, considering it was set up in response to Something Awful's shitty moderation and that place went from being the center of internet culture to a ghost town
>>449404 Oh, and on the topic of the jannies hating anything anthro. Trash, a board filled with anthro porn, has been more popular than the board dedicated to comics and cartoons for 2.5 years now
>>449406 I would, if he'd ever show up! Seriously though, I'm not sure how large 4chan's staff is, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a few backend devs keeping the site up and a bunch of unpaid jannies. They're certainly not modernizing anything. You can also tell they've never had a data scientist looking at their numbers, because the site's been hemorrhaging users for a decade now
>>449407 >>449406 Hiroshimoot doesn't give a shit about 4chan as long as there's nothing there to screw up the advertisement income. That's why his only interaction with the site was doing janitor recruitment every half year or so. If that's even him doing it.
>>449410 That's the thing, he should care since engagement drives ad views. If you look at the graph, user engagement has halved over the last decade for co. Now co's a smaller board, but if we look at the top three boards, we see v and pol on a decline, with vg being the only one that's maintaining its numbers (mostly due to schizos). This is not good for revenue.
Ultimately, I don't think he'll put in the effort needed to clear out the current mods and the competition will only get tougher. Between other imageboards, discord, fediverse instances, and spicy forums like Kiwi Farms, there's lots of places for people to go to talk about their interests and say naughty words. There's also no fucking captcha to fill out on these platforms, which we all know is mostly there to get users to buy a pass
>If that's even him doing it. I doubt it was him. He probably only bought it to boost his notoriety as an edgy celebrity back home in Japan
>>449411 >(mostly due to schizos) Don't forget the bots because there is proof of actual botting there and on other boards. Infact with the ChatGPT shit getting popular I'm sure it will reach a point were most of the posters will be bots.
>>449411 Graphs are always misleading. If /pol/ is on a decline it is because there's less stuff to talk about now that you don't have a populist president in the US. /v/ is being splintered into new boards, so it would naturally show a drop in post numbers. User engagement is reduced due to things like mobile users using API powered apps instead of the website.
Competition will not matter because there's an entire generation of people who grew up shitposting on 4chan, so assuming the site does not break spectacularly, the site traffic will never fall down too much.
>>449412 Bots are definitely responsible for an increasing number of posts, and I can see things getting so bad that most places are overrun by bots, not just 4chan. From what I've read, posting went down significantly on pol every time AWS went down so there must be a lot of bots in those threads >>449413 I agree that they're not telling the entire picture, but posts per day is the fairest measure of engagement we can get. Yeah, v's a poor example mostly due to vt having so many posts >User engagement is reduced due to things like mobile users using API powered apps instead of the website. They'd still show up in the metrics if they post
>>449413 >assuming the site does not break spectacularly, the site traffic will never fall down too much. I genuinely hope you're right. I'd hate to see it go, even if things are bad right now.
