@luxceleste.bsky.social being the cutest, fluffiest fennec boy. I've drawn and tweaked this design many times over the years (and added a few pounds on occasion <3), and I'm still so pleased with him. Don't you just wanna pick him up, give him a squeeze, then roll him into a ball and throw him?!

A digital illustration of an anthropomorphic male fennec fox, standing in the middle of a dirt road flanked by rice fields on a sunny day in rural Japan. He has his left hand raised in greeting, his right hand in his pocket, and his ears are cocked as though listening to a sound somewhere to his right. His eyes are a warm brown, and he is looking at the viewer. He is shirtless, wearing a pair of bleached-sky-blue shorts which sag enough off his hips to reveal his white underwear beneath. His body is lanky, with slender waist and arms, though his calves look a little more muscled. His fur is predominantly orange-brown, with sandy fur on the insides of his ears, the eye-of-Horus-like fur pattern under his eyes, his muzzle, neck, the front of his chest and belly, the underside of his tail, and his fingers and toes. He has long curly trailing locks of dark brown hair, pulled back from his face by a hairband, then allowed to trail down both his shoulders. He has dark brown fur matching his hair colour in scruffy tufts on his elbows, chest, the back of his legs, and his lower belly. The spiky tufts of dark brown fur around his face and chin resemble a beard. The exposed skin of his pawpads and nipples is salmon-pink. He has a gold ring and stud piercing place high on his left ear, a vertical gold eyebrow piercing on his left eyebrow (which has been shaved into three segments for stylistic purposes), a pair of gold nipple piercings, and an anklet of a silver chain and a circular pendant of a silver crescent moon on a dark blue background.

My Fallout RPG squirrel boy Artemis returns to the spotlight. He's gotten really good at this whole 'post-apocalyptic survival' thing... maybe a little too good. Though our campaign wasn't weight gain themed, Artemis does have a tendency to use his charms to get discounts and beg food off the party.

What's that? Another #BlobDay upload? With #fatfurs in it?? A silly doodle of my ferret/cat fursona Nickel being a sly, scheming, scruffy sneak, no doubt being responsible for @booknut.bsky.social 's coyote/wolf fursona Holt suddenly bursting out of his clothes. Two perfect beach bodies, am I right?

A vastly obese coyote/wolf hybrid kneels in a sandy clearing surrounded by the silhouettes of tropical island trees. His fur is in shades of brown, his hair is a spiky mop of darker brown, and one of his bright green eyes is visible. He has a gold earring in his right ear, and there are scraps of clothing on the ground that suggest he was wearing, until quite recently, a pair of red shorts that he has violently and explosively outgrown. His body is swollen to a colossal size, most prominent of which is his belly, which is taller and wider than he is. The expression on his face is of shock and confusion. Another character, an anthropomorphic ferret/cat hybrid called Nickel, leans back against Holt's belly. He has fur in shades of dull orange, brown and cream, and a dark-brown untidy mop of hair, a scruffy beard that reaches from his sideburns, through his jawline to his chin, and a mullet. He has prominent chest and belly hair, and a long fluffy tail in the same colour. Though his arms and legs are slender and his chest is flat, he has a prominent pot-belly, a soft love handle pushing against the waistband of his slightly visible underwear, and his rear has a definite curve against the faded pair of jeans he wears. His body is overall suggestive of someone who until recently slender, but has put on some weight. He has two silver studs in his right ear, as well as a large gauge piercing, and a nipple piercing. His expression is a smug smile as he looks back Holt with his sky-blue eyes. There is dialogue text from Nickel that reads, "Well, well, well! After all those comments about watching my waistline and letting myself go, look who's decided to spontaneously gain 10,000 pounds." It is implicit in the image that Nickel is responsible for causing Holt to gain a colossal amount of weight.

While I'm at this 'posting my art' thing again, here's a couple more character sheets. I really enjoy character design, and imagining the lives and stories I'd like to tell with my boys. They'll have their time in the spotlight, some day.

A character reference sheet of a young male anthropomorphic hyena. His black-spotted fur is in chocolatey shades of brown, a mop of light-to-deep orange fur, and bright aqua eyes. His body is mostly slender, but widens out at his hips, rear and thighs. He has a notch in his left ear. He wears a very loose dark grey hoodie falling off one shoulder, which is open to reveal his bare chest and belly, and dark grey-green tights with fashionable tears. They are loose around his hips, showing off his chartreuse and black underwear. He has a bluish dark grey soft beanie on his head. He wears two silver studs in his right ear, an aqua jewel piercing in his navel, and black-leather-and-silver-metal matching collar and bracelets. He is holding a coffee cup. Information on the sheet reads that his name is Yani, he is a 21 year old male hyena, he is 5'6 in height and 156 lbs in weight, and he is occupied as a hacker and coder.

A character reference sheet for a young male anthropomorphic cougar. He has dusty-brown shades of fur, contrasting with a vibrant chartreuse mohawk hairstyle, goatee bear and mullet. He has bright orange eyes, and prominent whiskers. He has a slender body with broad shoulders. He wears a bare-midriff white tank-top, over which he has a dark-grey-with-bright-yellow-highlights sleeveless hoodie, open, with the hood up. His red and white underwear are visible, as his dark grey pants with tattered hems sag a little, despite being held up by a black belt with a silver-and-green circuit-board themed belt buckle. There is a bright yellow strap attached to his belt loop. He wears black sneakers with white soles. He has prominent solid dark-grey gauge-style piercings in both ears, a silver eyebrow piercing, and two matching dark grey chin studs. He holds a cigarette between two fingers. His information states he is Travis, a 21 year old male cougar, 6'5 in height, 180 lbs in weight, occupied as a courier and runner.

I need a calendar to prepare for things like #BlobDay. It's reminded me to post this gift for KuroTheCollie that I doodled over a Fallout RPG campaign. This is actually a great perk for maxing out charisma and endurance, at the cost of agility, and perception past your own belly. Blob runs are fun!

An enormously obese blob of an anthropomorphic otter sits on the ground. He has a mop of blue hair with a fringe almost covering his eyes, brown-and-cream fur, and heterochromatic pink-and-purple eyes. The tattered remains of his attire around him suggest his clothing fit until quite recently. A bottle, shaped in the style of the Nuka-Cola bottles from the Fallout video game series, lies on the ground nearby, spilling out both brown fluid and brown bubbles. The otter is belching out similar brown bubbles. Various sound effects imply the otter's body has undergone rapid, enormous, and unexpected weight gain. There is green text in the style of the Fallout games, which states, "You take a sip of Calorie Bomb..." and "Perk Added: Immobile!"

Another Fallout RPG character! We're not sure yet how a British otter with a heavy cockney accent and a cricket bat ended up in post-nuclear America, or if his distinctly money-themed handle is even his real name... he's cute as hell though.

A male anthro otter with a skinny build stands leaning on a cricket bat as though using it as a walking cane. He has heterochromatic pink and purple eyes, orange-brown fur contrasted against cream, and vivid dyed-blue hair that hangs in bangs nearly covering one eye. He wears a brown duster coat that reaches past his knees, a black shirt, a belt with a silver-grey buckle, dark blue pants with the left leg torn halfway down his shin, and no footwear. All his clothes have rips and tears, and the coat in particular is peppered with bullet holes. He is looking somewhere past the viewer with a cheerful expression, his head tilted to one side.

My Fallout RPG boy, a smug brat named Artemis. He's from Vault 10 - 10 for his test scores and his looks. His whole society was arranged around academia - a particularly cut-throat variety. He's been exiled under the pretense that he's earned a scholarship at a prestigious university on the surface.

An androgynous young male squirrel with vivid brownish-red fur that contrasts with the cream fur on his toes, hands, belly, neck, face and inside of his ears. He has skinny arms and a narrow torso, but ample hips and thick thighs. He has long pink and purple hair artfully arranged into bangs and long trailing locks that fall over his shoulders. His finger and toe claws are painted with bright radioactive-green polish, and he has a gold piercing in his left eyebrow. He wears the blue-with-yellow-striped trousers and thick metal segmented belt of the vault dweller's uniform, but the belt is slipping far enough down his left hip that his underwear is visible. He also wears a dark purple undershirt, under a custom black jacket with a yellow number 10 on the right sleeve, and a blue heart lined with yellow and pierced by an arrow on the right breast. Both items of clothing are cut short enough to show off his bare midriff and navel. A blue bandana and dark purple hat with a brim complete the look, he wears no footwear. He is resting a baseball bat across the back of his shoulders with his right hand, while his left hand is on his hip, showing off his Pip-Boy wrist computer. He is sucking on a lollipop, and giving someone a look of smug self-confidence.

I threw a chubby kobold into a 5e game I was running, and he caused more of a stir than I expected. So, he earned a drawing. His name is Azello, an affable fellow looking for some fun and entertainment. Which might include hunting you down for sport. Or just going on a nice dinner date.

A belly-heavy fat kobold with red and black scales, in form-fitting shiny leather pants and an open jacket, heavily adorned with gold jewelry and piercings. He spreads his arm in a gesture of innocence, holding a piece of snapped bone in his hand as a toothpick, while in the Expressionist-inspired background, there are the picked-clean bone remains of what must have been a large roasted animal. The subtitle reads, "Share? That was barely an appetiser for one!"

I wrote a long introspecting spiel on FA about my fursona, but in short - here's my new design, a mix of what I find appealing, what I wish for myself, and how I actually am. www.furaffinity.net/view/63762391/

A reference sheet of a shaggy hairy pudgy ferret/cat hybrid with clothing options for doing dirty outside jobs.

A cursed twink version of my kobold Pathfinder character, Elias. He's usually quite round, so I thought it'd be fun to see the skinny side of him. His design overall has changed, which means soon I'll need to draw him again at his usual size. Enjoy the view while you can, Elias.

A commission for @luxceleste.bsky.social of his Rimworld characters, the hyena-jackal Dew (left) and hyena Seth (right). They're half-siblings, and live the outrageously dangerous warrior-farmer Rimworld lifestyle. It certainly builds muscle. <3

Chubby fluffy hyena man. This is Nkandu. He runs a weight-loss treatment business so you too can look as svelte as him and eat just as much. The near-nudity, voodoo-themed loincloth, piercings, and maniacal cackling are just how he expresses himself.

My friend has no fursona of his own making, so designs must be imposed upon him. A sassy mouse with a fat ass and giant dick, seems fitting to me.

So I like lanky wingless bat dudes with long tufted tails. So I drew a bad, rebellious bat boy that sticks it to The Man and will never ever sell out. Also he likes fruit and has never been in a fight in his entire life.

Sketch request for a friend. I have been trying to sketch without hitting CTRL+Z after literally every line, which is something that's paralysed my art recently. Helps me actually get drawings done, even if they're messier. Oh to be a magical fat unicorn hippie. No job. No rent. No clothes.

Sometimes sketches are okay to post too. Here's some face practice, using a new pencil brush, and trying out a different style. This is Kraeton the gnoll necromancer and main antagonist from the first Pathfinder campaign I was in. He's such a cutie when he gives a rare, smug little smile. <3

I like creating random scruffy dudes. Dean's probably hard to get along with, but if you're a friend, there's nothing he won't help you with, even if you need to twist his ear a bit. He has no specific species, 'bat-like furry creature' is cool (and hot) as its own thing.

Clean and VHS-ised versions of a portrait I made for my new Cyberpunk 2020 character, Orion. I was going for the very over-the-top flamboyance of the Urban Flash fashion style in that setting. After all, one of the most important rules is Style Over Substance!
