10 years already... time flies by, and as someone who heavily self-inserted as Frisk when I was 12, I can't help but feel like they must have been growing alongside me. I'm already 22, I can no longer wear stripes...

Lots of close-ups below (WITHOUT the pages), because there are A LOT of details to seek

ALRIGHT SO my pal @kalreyno wanted help with drawing fat characters and as a fat artist i felt like i could give a bit of helpful insight on that. there’s also been a lot of complaining about “boo hoo fat characters are hard to draw so i can’t include them in my work Ever” goin on lately so if that’s your case then this is for you too!! and also just for anyone who would like help with fat bodies in general, ofc. anyway, let’s get this show on the road!!

let’s start with some common misconceptions. these are the two main attempts at chubby bodies i run into, so i’ll focus on them. 

the Anime Chubby i see everywhere, and it’s just……so wrong in many ways. first of all, there is almost no additional body fat compared to your average thin character - except for where it’s added in “attractive” places (breasts, hips, thighs). the breasts are way too perky, and don’t have the realistic shape fat would give them (though how to draw accurate breasts is another tutorial all on its own lmao). there is still a thigh gap, which usually only happens in very thin people, and bones are still visible on the surface of the skin, which also rarely happens in fat people.

the Michelin Man is better in some ways, but still not that great. it’s a slightly better attempt, but basically all that’s done there is taking a thin character and blowing them up, while giving no thought to fat distribution. the thigh gap is usually still present, and they look a lot more hard than soft - and fat is very soft and pliable.

here’s a chart on how fat usually distributes (if you can’t read my messy writing, “1. next to no fat, 2. moderate amount, 3. most of the fat distribution”). basically, the more muscle an area has, the more prone it is to develop fat, such as the abdomen, thighs, and upper arms. it’s important to note that fat sits on top of muscle, and that it does distribute in different levels, and not evenly across the body as shown in the Michelin Man. 

now, here’s an accurate fat body with all of that kept in mind!! notice how the fat isn’t only kept to aesthetically pleasing areas, and how it sits realistically on the character’s body. their breasts sag a lot more, which happens even in thin people with larger breasts, and the nipples are pointing more downwards than straight out. there is no thigh gap in sight, there are no bones in sight, and most importantly, they have fat rolls, which are very important in drawing a convincing fat character!! as far as i know i’ve never met a single person with no rolls at all, and everyone has them, whether thin or fat - they’re just more prominent and more consistently present in fat people. pay close attention to where they are and how they’re shaped.

here are a couple of drawings showing how fat is affected when sitting vs stretching. as seen in the first, the fat specifically on the stomach is distributed a lot more evenly and stretched out, so it becomes “flatter”. the love handles are still pretty visible, though, as well as the fat on the thighs and arms. the breasts are raised with the shoulders, and the fat on the shoulders and near the neck forms rolls as it’s being pushed together. 

in the second, there is a lot less room for distribution, so the fat is all pushed together. the breasts sag and the stomach forms rolls and spills into the lap. a good analogy for the way fat works is to liken it to a water balloon, and thinking of how its shape would change when resting flat on a surface, hanging off of a ledge, held upright, etc.

here are a few extra tips i find a lot of people miss!

first on the top is the hip/pubic region. the first circle is showing the way the bellybutton is folded in fat people, as opposed to stretched out in thinner people. the second is the stomach fat spilling over onto the pubic region and creating a separation in the two areas, which is something that’s missing in a lot of art. in addition, the pubic mound also gains fat, making it round as seen in the profile drawing i did up there (i’ve heard people refer to it as fupa?). the last in the hip region is the lack of a thigh gap. i can’t stress this enough!!!! if you’re trying to draw a convincing fat character, make sure their thighs are pretty much always touching!! for reference, mine literally don’t separate until my feet are about 2ft from each other.

the bottom right is showing the double chin, which a lot of people are afraid to draw!! fat does distribute itself here too, and there’s nothing wrong with it, so don’t feel like you shouldn’t give fat characters a double chin in your work for fear of it looking like a caricature.

in the bottom middle, it’s showing how fat affects different types of breasts with the presence of more or less breast tissue. 

lastly, at the very right are stretch marks with their usual locations and directions, which i also can’t stress enough!!!!! i sometimes forget to add them honestly, but they’re so important in accurately portraying fat characters, as they literally come from the skin being stretched from fat being gained (and they’re also just rlly neat lookin like why wouldn’t you lmao). some people have less and some people have more, feel free to experiment with them!

the last thing is body types!! there isn’t one single way for a person to be fat, so feel free to experiment with shapes once you’ve learned the basics!! 

so there you have it, a tutorial on how to draw chubs!! now go forth and make some accurate fanart or some rad fat characters, because the world could always use more of both. hmu if you have any questions or concerns, and thanks for reading!!

"Ya still like piggy backs? Mister big scary 'Dustswap'?"

"Maybe..."

As Lucifer had said, it would not be the last they would see of him. In fact, it was fairly soon after. The Morningstar made his way back up to the heavens. An army to soon join him! Lucifer had somehow managed to convince a great number of angels to join him before attempting to storm his father's chapel. How dare they judge him without hearing his side fully! How dare they cast him out! HIM!

With a tremendous roar, Lucifer burst into the chapel! Only to be greeted by his dear brother. Michael, who stood tall, sword in hand. The look in his eyes made him pause for a moment. His eyes pleading with Lucifer, begging him to turn around. His hands shaking as if he were fighting something Lucifer could not see.

"Please, just turn around. Don't come closer. Please. I cannot bring myself to fight you. But I will not be able to stop myself from doing so. Turn around. Stop this now. Please." Michael's thoughts echoed in his head. Oh he wished he could tell him! But he had been silenced! He could not warn Lucifer of what was going to happen.

Lucifer was looking about the chapel cautiously. Something wasn't right at all, Why was it only Michael here? His gaze went back to Michael, the only way to find out...was to move forward. "I'm sorry Michael...It didn't have to be this way." He snarled. Michael seemed to jolt as Lucifer went to attack. "No! No please!"

Without fail, his body moved to dodge Lucifer and counter. Michael was now screaming at himself, he didn't want this! This didn't need to happen! His attacks were quick and strong. Lucifer was putting up a rather good fight to counter Michael, but it would not be long until he would falter. But Lucifer got his answer, with his last attempt of attack he managed to get close enough to Michael to see what haunted his brother's gaze.

Upon his fall, Lucifer felt tremendous pain. Not just in his body, but deep from within. It felt as if his very soul had been torn! The Angel watched as the halo that once sat above his head now slowly falling to the ground and crumbling away until...

He arched back with a painful cry! Everything hurt! His hands, his feet, his mouth, his back, his head! Everything! It burned! He could hardly breathe! He gasped deeply trying to gain some sort of control of what his body was doing! The immense pain continued on for what felt like eternity, eventually subsiding.

This allowed Lucifer to finally regain himself, his once deep sadness now turning to a burning rage. This was not the end for him. He refused to lose this battle!

Here is the first prizeof the DTIYS for @ruelin024 which I hope will delight you ✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧!
