[QUOTE=greasemunky;50338711]Holy shit you're fast.[/QUOTE] I have become experienced in the art of Overwatch avatar making.
[QUOTE=BrosefStachin;50338705]That's gotta be a very awkward job when like meeting new people and they ask what you do.[/QUOTE] sidestep and say you're an artist? Even saying 'character artist' isn't bad [QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50338685]I mean people that make it a part of their life, not as a career. A game comes out and so many people get obsessed over anything even slightly sexual and then it infects a lot of the community and makes it worse off. Thats why its really hard to tell if people are kidding about the waifuism or not.[/QUOTE] waifu talk is 100% shooting the shit even with people who're eating up the r34. They're not EASY to spot but I know a few people have given off some pretty strong tells they're all up in the nsfw side of things, like recognizing cropped r34 from an artist- [QUOTE=BackSapper;50338599]There is something very crucial to these avatars that are missing in comparison to the og photos. :fap:[/QUOTE] -granted, the images they quoted have an easily recognized artstyle and one of them was in the 'overwatch experience' vid on the r34 shenanigans so even outsiders might notice that
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50338685]I mean people that make it a part of their life, not as a career. A game comes out and so many people get obsessed over anything even slightly sexual and then it infects a lot of the community and makes it worse off. Thats why its really hard to tell if people are kidding about the waifuism or not.[/QUOTE] I'd say that the majority of waifuism anywhere is just people playing up what characters they like.
[QUOTE=dai;50338749]granted, the images they quoted have an easily recognized artstyle and one of them was in the 'overwatch experience' vid on the r34 shenanigans so even outsiders might notice that[/QUOTE] In my defense. It was some good Mercy art. There is not much for Mercy as there is for D.va.
Honestly, if something i made like a comic/game/whatever would get the rule 34 treatment i'd be extremely happy, it means i made something that people like
Has todays 21 Days of Overwatch picture been shared yet? [t]http://pre14.deviantart.net/b7ad/th/pre/f/2016/127/1/1/mei_by_claparo_sans-da1l1bm.jpg[/t]
I just like Pharah because she has a cool robot skin and, uh, shoots missiles and flies
[QUOTE=dai;50338749]sidestep and say you're an artist? Even saying 'character artist' isn't bad [/QUOTE] And then they ask to see it, and eventually someone finds out the truth. Thank god art frustrates me too much to do so I could never stoop that low.
I'm friends with slugbox and boy that's a ride, talked with him (in an interview for the deviant art thread) about how he deals with the social situations and it's never an issue
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50338779]I just want this game to have a good community. A community will make or break a game like this.[/QUOTE] Same! And my experience so far has been really nice. Nothing drives me more to give my best than a bunch of teammates thanking me post-game after a great series of support plays. Never really had that happen in TF2 or Smite.

[QUOTE=admiralt;50338826][URL="http://lord-muddle.tumblr.com/post/144470111375/so"]That's not the only cartoon character he shares a voice with.[/URL][/QUOTE] Oh my god. :excited: I am going to run around micspamming Hater lines. I have an all new respect for Reaper. "Soon, every soul in the universe will be mine, even pathetic little specks like 'Mercy'; all under the control of... [B]REAPER!![/B]"
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50338779]I just want this game to have a good community. A community will make or break a game like this.[/QUOTE] People obsessing over various characters is something that happens primarily behind the scenes anyway. My biggest concern is how sporting other players will be. Nothing puts me off multiplayer more than toxicity.
[QUOTE=dai;50338819]I'm friends with slugbox and boy that's a ride, talked with him (in an interview for the deviant art thread) about how he deals with the social situations and it's never an issue[/QUOTE] Had to look up who he was.. Oops?????
wow the waifu tournament thread got closed :(

[QUOTE=Steel & Iron;50338731]With places like Patreon, it's becoming where you can almost support yourself with the earnings. [t]http://i.imgur.com/ihu6Exn.png[/t] Of course, results will vary. But, I think that many of them will own up to it because they know it's a business, and where there is a business there is usually money. And most of them enjoy it.[/QUOTE] I am never going to get over the fact that this girl makes 60 thousand dollars a month from drawing fan art porn
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50338805]My friend is an art major and I've actually recommended him to draw DeviantArt porn :v: I wouldn't judge anyone negatively for doing (good) drawn porn. Takes mad skill and you make mad bucks.[/QUOTE] Ha I don't have mad skills. Still though I have joked about it with a friend. [QUOTE=dai;50338819]I'm friends with slugbox and boy that's a ride, talked with him (in an interview for the deviant art thread) about how he deals with the social situations and it's never an issue[/QUOTE] Fair enough. I just couldn't pull it off in a month of Sundays. Not that I'd want to. Fuck it let's steer this back to Overwatch though. Can anyone give tips for Mei? I didn't play her a lot, but I picked her whenever someone else went Tracer or support.

Welp...time to do some reaping. [t]https://i.imgur.com/sfNFb2X.png[/t]
Holy shit Junkrat was Artyom in Last Light. The thing he found in the outback was a baby Dark One!

If you pursue a craft, being 'you' is the most important part of improving your work and making it it's own thing. Following templates and demands will get you stuck in a really formulaic and unrewarding rut (granted if you're just grinding for money it's pretty livable)[/sp] as for mei, learn to ice wall. Like I said earlier she's a very underappreciated [i]disruptor[/i] in that she can use that wall to break apart enemies (separate that mercy from their tank!), cause people to lose valuable time getting to their objective, and getting teammates up into unusual places (placing it under somebody will lift them up, bastion can get to some nice perches this way). You can ambush and competently 1v1 people who've wandered off the beaten path (get behind enemy lines and pick off people running back to the fight), and can bait people into using their ultimates or other skills on cooldown, only to go invulnerable with the ice cube
[QUOTE=Furnost;50338857]wow the waifu tournament thread got closed :([/QUOTE] im sad
I'm wondering about this option because I played the Overwatch Beta as much as I could without looking at settings. Can a server set that the team can pick only one of each hero?
[QUOTE=admiralt;50338858]Holy shit, he's already got fanart: [IMG]http://67.media.tumblr.com/5184e208408329e7ebb3e33d5e99d7b4/tumblr_o7c1hxZ8BW1rsuvwxo1_500.png[/IMG] [url]http://cottonwings.tumblr.com/post/144511403277[/url] EDIT: More Wander Over Yonder actors! [url]http://guywholikesyou2.tumblr.com/post/144474020084/i-love-how-everyone-is-now-freaking-out-about[/url][/QUOTE]Makes sense. I can totally see Reaper being Lord Hater's OC.
[QUOTE=Furnost;50338857]wow the waifu tournament thread got closed :([/QUOTE] it was kind of a weird gimmick to people who don't play overwatch tbh.... but anyway what's-his-face has the okay to host his tournament once he's free but he's gotta keep it in this thread
Now I would like if Wander's voice actor voiced a new hero just to make the duo complete.
There are so many different concepts for characters they could pull from GOD DAMN
[QUOTE=jiggu;50338860]I am never going to get over the fact that this girl makes 60 thousand dollars a month from drawing fan art porn[/QUOTE] they're really well drawn fan art porn to be honest, that sets her apart from the others is her art style.
[QUOTE=Zelle;50339177]they're really well drawn fan art porn to be honest, that sets her apart from the others is her art style.[/QUOTE] it's generic, lifeless and i know about 50 other artists who draw equal or better than her.
