Do ya like weight-gain scenarios where gainers undergo a change of personality mental-state or attitude from growing fatter? And in what direction do ya most enjoy seeing their corresponding 'character-growth' going developing or taking them as individuals???
ryoxxl:
I like a character to undergo a kind of intoxication with the process of their weight gain, where their inhibitions evaporate and some of their more naughty traits get brought to the surface. Corruption is fun! Greedier, less risk averse, hornier... mixed in with perhaps a nice reduction in overall intelligence (or at least a reduced willingness to use their intelligence), becoming more docile, malleable and hypnotised by their own excess. No need to think... just eat... just grow... get SOFTER.
The strongest example of this kind of corruptive WG mental shift is the rhinoko-type TF, where I get to play with a complete personality shift from a normal, perhaps headstrong but feminine personality into a complete slovenly, brutish and brazenly idiotic or meathead-like rhino goon... where the TF subject is completely enthralled by the process of their physical and mental degradation that they start to revel in their own descent, and this forbidden, sexual pleasure from extreme transformation becomes too difficult to resist... and the idea of permanent change is a thrill too exciting not to chase.
I also like the more wholesome WG-derived mental shift where perhaps somebody was living a stressful existence before they are "allowed" to finally let go, and a kind foxy feeder pampers them into a happier, sexier and more at peace plumper! The fluffy ending!

Bit of a weird question, but what is your opinion on stuff like belching, farting and messy eating? Is there a point where it gets too much, for you, or do you not like it at all?
ryoxxl:
I don't mind belching! Messy eating is hot too.
I'm a bit of a clean freak irl so expect me to be wiping your mouth after a funnel feed, and you can fart to your heart's content, just don't expect me to be turned on.
Don't hold it in tho!

I hope future fat fur fans look back on our era of fat furry art as just 'Furry art' simply due to ever-increasing obesity!
ryoxxl:
I do think that furries are much more chill with fats, and a hugely obese furry could walk into a room and nobody would bat an eye (unless they're like super hot and have a rack that could sink a battleship, because who could resist THAT). Until people get over their apparent "revulsion" at seeing fat bodies online we will always be a category... rather than just a body type. Ideally FA or other sites should simply allow people to filter on body type, rather than classify as a sub-fetish anything north of a muffin top. I think things are changing. I have no stats, but it feels like fat furry is a growing (heh) community. It's clear that fat furry art is awakening a sexual attraction for fatter people, in the same way it can open up peoples' sexuality.
I hope fat furry art can at least encourage people to see the attraction in a wider range of body types, helping de-normalise fat phobia. Obviously fetishising fat isn't exactly helping in that regard, but I do hope that fat furs are blended into the mainstream because we're all sexy, whether we're fat, thin and everything in between!

Irresistible insatiable all-consuming gluttony erasing overriding & subsuming all other emotion impulses & iota of identity is honestly one of my all-time favourite weight-gain tropes! Just growing gradually degraded by your greed until you literally only exist to eat & eat & eat! Reduced to a pure piggish puppet possessed by your overwhelming overpowering uncompromising cravings! And you basically become nothing but an embodiment of your own utterly intoxicating appetites!... I'd honestly LOVE to hear your personal take on the topic, dude!
ryoxxl:
I think this is genuinely what'd happen if you let a lot of us totally unleash our base sexual and hedonistic NEED to become a monument to consumption, surrendering all control over our physical representation on Earth to the extremes of a six figure daily calorific intake.
So many XWG stories culminate with the hoggish, mindless gorging on a feeding funnel until the subject has metamorphosed into a heaving, wobbling blob of blubber. It's part of the fantasy: what would happen if you simply devolved into a vehicle for total pleasure, letting all of your complex human nuances evaporate, simplifying your existence to a single need, and becoming no more mobile or cognisant than a sea squirt that breathes in nutrients from sea water... except **you're** a hole to fill with calories, sweet sweet gooey energy all wrapped up in sugar, to grow to lose more of yourself to your own psychic hijacking. You've let your mind become hopelessly addicted and each passing second makes it 10 times harder to go back.
Feeling your body expand rapidly across the floor, you know you've short circuited, you're pure id now, you tried to keep it down for years, but finally given the opportunity to turn 8 ton pig, you jumped... you grew and you let greed turn you into an ocean of greasy fat... and you LOVE every moment.

So I was randomly reminded of "Urban Foxes" today & I now have a burning desire to see a super slobby Suzie gorging herself on garbage from dumpsters & food scraps from trash cans at night! Possibly while being caught in the act of shamefully embracing her insatiably opportunistic voraciously vulpine nocturnal nature! Utterly bloated & blubbery beyond belief! And exclaiming: "I-it's not what it looks like!!!" in pure panicked shock! (Please forgive my dumb art-prompt if it's not to your tastes tho Ryoxxl!)
ryoxxl:
This just sounds like me after a few too many negronis on a night out
Voice on the Aether:
What obscure, niche & distinctive aspects of your Scottish culture would you LOVE your international audience to experience, enjoy & be made more generally aware of; which they'd likely be utterly unfamiliar with hitherto? (Also, if you Identify as more broadly 'British' than strictly 'Scottish', I'm sincerely sorry for any awkward & unintended national misidentification there, dude!)
ryoxxl:
I am culturally more Scottish, never really losing the accent and having a strong affinity with the landscape, food culture and general openness (and broadly liberal attitudes). Scottish tories are the worst though. I love England too, as it’s where I’ve spent most of my life so far and people are in general a little more worldly down here. Some Scots will never leave Scotland! I can’t stand the English at sports. Unbearable. Plus Brexit-voting England pissed me off hugely.
Anyway! Scotland is full of the pageantry and Victorian-era romanticism around clans, tartan, bagpipes and all that’s good stuff. Do a ceilidh when you can! It’s a great way to dance yourself sober.
Nessie is a babe, obviously, and we keep her hidden away to stop ogling tourists.
Celebrate Burns night! Our national poet! Can be tricky to read the Scots dialect but my fave is the story of Tam O’Shanter—a tale of getting drunk and stumbling upon a satanic ritual in an old Kirk (church) and getting spooked teh-fuck and chased all the way back to the village on your horse by a naked witch. Great stuff… especially reciting on a cold January evening over whisky and haggis.
Eat lots of greasy food. I’ve never tried a deep fried mars bar because it’s for tourists… but grab a “Munchy Box” if you’re ever out in Glasgow or Edinburgh. You’ll gain 5 pounds overnight…! Tunnocks are also a brand of chocolate bar to look out for in international aisles too. Defs seen it in places in the US.
And obviously, don’t forget the beacon of Scottish cultural exports… Limmy.
Voice on the Aether:
There once was a fox girl named Suzie, with cravings intense & unruly. Why be prim or slim? She teased with a grin. Far better a fattened-up floozy! For life's way more fun when your flirty, full-figured, unfettered & curvy! So I aim to indulge! To binge, bloat & bulge! And grow ever more gluttonously girthy! I don't care if folks call me: seedy, indulgent, depraved, gross or greedy. Becoming obese brings me bliss, pride & peace… I'm a FAT, FOXY, FABULOUS FEEDEE!!! 🥰🦊😋🐷💖 (Because honestly, who doesn't love a limerick, right?!) 😁
ryoxxl:
TALENT! Who doesn’t love a limerick?! 🥰💕 I want this on my headstone in bright pink… I want to be remembered as a flamboyant flub of foxy fluff. Letting all this consume me… consuming as much as I can and sharing all of it as a journey into huge, unfathomable femmy foxy softness 🦊🥵!

Have you thought about setting up a shop to sell your art as prints? I just saw your Scottish cow pic and I would love to display it on my walls.
ryoxxl:
Yes, this is something I've wanted to do for a long time, but have been more focussed on commissions since I began making art and haven't had time to branch out! I really want to find a way to sell prints, sticker art and more and begin making WG and furry collectables. Not sure of the logistics of it, and what options there are. Etsy feels like it's past its best and maybe a bit iffy with big booby furry characters...?
Getting some of my ideas into physical media would be very rewarding, and definitely something I'd pursue if people expressed an interest. I'll make a few stickers and prints and see if it's worth it?
Voice on the Aether:
Do you prefer fatties who enjoy celebrate & encourage others growing fatter? Or to hog all the fattening fun for themselves out of revelry jealousy & a desire to preserve their prestige & pride at being the biggest baddest blubberiest b!tch on the block?
ryoxxl:
Putting myself in this scenario (because those are the most fun things to imagine... and even possible... i'm even eating cake rn, oops), let's say as a big soft fatty myself, I would certainly be a pom-pom wielding cheerleader for helping somebody totally blob out. Like, don't get me wrong, I'd be indulging and allowing all my hedonistic desires to turn me into even more of a sofa crusher, but I have BIG feeder tendencies and stuffing somebody silly to the point of rendering them helpless hogs is super hot. If you hang around me, you're gonna get FAT.
For other scenarios, particularly the "feederism out of nowhere" type story where WG curiosity gets the better of a skinny girl or boy, I kind of like it when they are insanely bent on becoming fatter than anybody thought possible, much to the horror of their friends and family!

What eventually led you to tf-ing Ryoko into a rhino? anything in specific or was it originally a one off that stuck?
ryoxxl:
Leave a pencil with me and after about 10 minutes I’ll have drawn our spiky haired menace. I can’t stop. Looking back, because I end up drawing her so often I wondered if she would look good as something massive, fat and bulky—and what better than a lazy, chunky rhino? I was looking for a really really strong body contrast to play with. She makes a good cow and pig, why not a rhino? Those horns…
Turns out, it really hit the mark when I first drew her more BBW rhino design, and I received a ton of feedback and positive comments on how she looked. It encouraged me to draw her again, and in different sizes/TF levels. I even started crafting a story which I’ve nearly finished the final part of. I then started looking at other rhino characters in animation and I got super into those big dumb rhino guards from Robin Hood. Imagine if one of them used to be skinny woman? What if?
For those familiar with the Ryoko character, a super fat rhino body works because her canon personality is so brash, larger-than-life, greedy and reckless that a big bulking beast actually suits her far more than her original slender human female frame. It’s also why she makes such an excellent TF subject—she’d definitely be into it if it gave her a stats boost or allowed her to really let go. The corruption would take over quickly.
My darker, more curious TF interests have pushed her transformation much further into the unrecognisable territory as a cool way to explore extremes, and some of that more juicy girl to huge beast before/after action. She’d make a good fat brute. I still like the BBW furry Rhinoko stuff as a separate thing entirely, but it’s been a big mixture of my own artistic/kink curiosity and lots and lots of feedback from you guys! If people wanna see more I’ll draw her more often.
