Abandonware - An Art and OCs Club!

New Topic Respond to this Topic

Hey you! Are you someone who has an artist persona or favorite OC? Do you wish you had more people to share them with? Are you not sure if you'd fit in any other NG clubs? Do you wish I'd stop asking so many questions?


Welcome to Abandonware! (not to be confused with the actual abandonware club, which ironically enough has been dormant for 20 years). 


I've always found those groups and clubs where everyone makes art and animations of their OCs together to be a charming concept, so I decided to throw my hat in the ring and make one myself. It's like when you're a kid and you make art and games with all your school friends in them, but this time we're all slightly older and more dead inside. 


Only real requirements or whatever for being in this club is having a NG account and the ability to draw. Art quality is irrelevant. Doesn't matter whether you're a total beginner or the reincarnation of Lionardo Davinchi, all that matters is that you're havin' a good time with your chums. 


If that sounds cool to you, then come and join today!! (Please)


Rules:

1. Don't do anything that's against the NG rules, obviously

2. Don't be a dick

3. Don't start drama with other people or groups if you can help it

If you don't have an artist persona or OC to use, or you're having trouble coming up with one, then I'm more than happy to help ^w^ Just PM me!

It occurs to me that starting this group at midnight might not have been the greatest idea in the world, but we soldier on. (。_。)

More or less we just make art/comics together and also possibly be friends. And no worries about not saying anything, I couldn't figure out how to start the dang thing for like a week and a half XD

Oo yeah I'm also down, especially since I've been needing more people to talk to for a while now :] (also sorry for late reply, I fell asleep asdvfm)


Salutations Abandonware Members! (Are you guys officially members yet? Well you are now, just in case you weren't before), I have decided on a possible first project for us!


Since the holidays are coming up, perhaps we could make a small comic or just a little poster for Christmas. Y'know, everyone hangin' out and having a cute little holiday party -w-


What do you think?

I feel like it'd be good to start simple especially since we don't really know eachother yet

so like maybe the poster idea would be good, and it could be like a mini art collab

Sounds good to me. I'm gonna check everybody art in this forum as a form of help. Also, for my characters, you can look at them in the Art Portal (if you're interested). I have very much experience in art and story construction if anybody wants advice

It seems not much has happened in this club, so I thought that I'd suggest an activity to help keep this going.


Why don't you all draw your OCs within this scene?iu_1119283_10334054.webp

Since Christmas is on the way, there could be a Christmas party going in the picture.

That's an idea I can get behind. I've really needed to get back into the groove of regularly drawing anyways -w-

It's a medium-length story. But for the sake of not starting a spat I'm not gonna talk about it too much over here.


To change the subject a bit, anybody got holiday plans?

gonna start a yearly tradition of rewatching my top 10 movies that came out that year, or I’ve seen for the first time over winter break

iu_1126430_7595065.jpg

Christmas marks the three year anniversary my favorite artist Playboi Carti dropped, well, anything, so I’m gonna spend all day waiting patiently for him to finally do his job. Besides that, spend time w/ family, work on college application stuff, work on game dev stuff, type shit


What about you?
