With Easter approaching, might we see any big blubbery bunny BBWs; eagerly indulging their delicious addiction to chocolate from you in future? ๐๐ซ๐ฏโโ๏ธ๐ฅ๐ค๐ฐ (I'd honestly LOVE to see your personal take on the 'Cadbury Caramel Bunny' girl in particular! ๐)
ryoxxl:
Oh I can't believe I let Easter pass by and not draw the sultry Cadbury's Caramel bunny! I remember that ad on TV growing up during that interesting period of British TV where every brand seemingly had a really well-animated furry mascot. I've got her down as a must as I have neglected the buns. They're so cute, and moody, but with naturally big hips. I have a 11 months to get her done.

Are you into magical/instantaneous weight gain? Or is that 'Cheating' & spoils the gradual growing thrill of getting fatter; pound by slow sensual pound, calorie by captivating calorie, morsel by mouth-watering morsel. Stringing out your delusional sense of denial indefinitely. Assuring yourself you're not fat, can always slim down later & quit gorging whenever ya want. The comforting complacency of your inexorably insatiable appetites helping your obesity gradually grow & grow without concern shock & alarm. And no jarring moment of sudden, surprised revelation letting slip just how hoggishly HUGE you've become, to risk jolting you outta your fattening fun!
ryoxxl:
I find that magical/instantaneous weight gain is satisfying when the weight gain or TF is sometimes unexpected or involuntary. Suddenly blorping into a blubberball is a lot like those cartoony weight gain tropes that can be alluring when it's done right, with that sudden transformation both shocking and highly contrasted with their previous shape, i.e. Ludmilla's dragon TF. In my opinion, you absolutely have to include some post-TF content to really explore how that character is reacting to their new body, whether it's horror or happiness, or a mixture of both. It's hot to combine the sudden drastic change that might have happened because of an arbitrary curse or revenge with a longer story of adaption to a permanent TF where somebody is now adjusting to growing half a ton of fat on themselves, or more.
When I write weight gain stories, sudden WG is just another mode of transformation: the changes are fast, overwhelming and uncontrollable. This feels like a more like wobbly and soft offshoot of the TF kink rather than feederism, which is much more about savouring the journey and experiencing every new pound in all its squishy glory.
Feederism and the gradual WG experience is sexy because it can describe in juicy details all of the changes to a body over time as well as the impacts of fat on lifestyle, energy levels, appetite and so much more. The psychological element of gradual WG is also exciting, with an initial curiosity and apprehension leading perhaps to denial until, finally, they give into all their piggish desires. The slow pacing of weight gain allows for a contrast in how fat changes on the body relative to the person's weight, starting off as a chubby or curvy beauty and ending with eating themselves into immobility or at the very least a waddling 400 lbs heifer trying to handle every day tasks. All angles and stages of WG are hot, and you can build kinky anticipation much more easily with the slow gain.
You also see a mix of the two quite a lot. The first 300 lbs are slow and sensual, and the final 700 lbs to turn them into room sized piles of flub happens in the last 2 pages!
Voice on the Aether:
Do you have any favourite feedist fiction or writers who craft the most tantalizing, exciting & steamy weight-gain stories? (Either furry or non-furry)
ryoxxl:
Good question! I honestly find that fiction writers for TF, furry and feedism manage to hit areas us artists just can't. I get crazy hot over stories... and should really illustrate some!
In terms of different writers, I have regrettably read and misplaced so many stories without remembering the writer, but two writers that stand out at the moment for me are
whatsonsecond on FA, especially because I was able to do some cover art for them and I love their StarFox stuff. For the gaining/TF and everything in between I have been a big fan of AdmiralAkbar1 on FA (WhatZ1tT00ya on X) for a while... his stuff helps in my own personal corruption.
If people have any recommendations or want to send me their own stuff I'd love that!
Voice on the Aether:
I love the Scottish Gal representation in your art! I ADORE their accent, hearty vivacity & status as the FATTEST in Europe! I mean seriously, what's not to love, right?!
ryoxxl:
As Scot away from home am that person who is constantly over-romanticising but it's such an amazing place and amazing people, even the midges. The highland weather almost demands a heavier-set body and a strong personality to endure it, so the girls I draw are both well padded physically but have the gumption to live up there and thrive. My mother is a highlander, and they tend to exhibit a kind, generous, loyal but also very strong rebellious nature with a brash sense of humour. They like their peaty whiskies too.
The influx of fried food and "Munchy Boxes" from Glasgow has certainly contributed to their waistlines, but itโs a region, at least in my mind, of shorter, plumper people who have a lower centre of gravity to withstand high winds. That might just be me though.
In all, of all my OC headcanon settings, my least publicised, but perhaps most fully-developed is a series of characters or stories around a farm or remote community in Scotland where the mythical rubs shoulders with the normal human population. Thereโs a lot of spooky folklore up there to intermingle with some voluptuous OC shenanigans. Whatโs not to love? Nessie is a babe. A bunch of English or American travellers who happen upon a farm in the highlands managed by some huge Jerseylander (Jersey X Highland) cow girls is a recipe for something fun. โLoch Lindasโ?
Voice on the Aether:
Fast-food, junk-food & cheep, greasy, high-calorie c**p? Or fancy food, fine dining & luxury cuisine? What's ya fav feedism, gaining & stuffing scenario?
ryoxxl:
I cook a lot at home and I enjoy cooking as often as I can, which makes getting fast food a real treat of both convenience but also a BIG guilty pleasure. Getting totally piggish with a table full of hyper-processed junk would feel crazy fun and adds to that feeling of totally letting go and allowing the most sultry feederism urges to win. I also eat fast food crazy fast, so you bet I'd be inhaling at least three burgers, a kilo of fries and a box of twelve nuggets before my brain even registers it! After that expect me to be horizontal somewhere, sipping a milkshake feeling sorry for myself and my gut bloat.
That's my feedee side, but my feeder side kind of likes the idea of treating somebody to insane levels of either fancy restaurant fare or lovingly prepared home cooking. I really really enjoy good food and am always talking myself out of going to nicer places... I have to remind myself that you're paying for the service, not just the food! I fixate on the ingredients and the quality, but there's nothing that can beat a professional chef in making things taste sooo good. I'd love to pamper somebody and cover the bill, giving their waistline a chance to explode in the wake of some seriously fine dining!

Do ya prefer Fatties who grow fatter cause they crave to overeat or Fatties who overeat cause they crave to grow fatter? ๐ท (or perhaps some delicious combo of both?)
ryoxxl:
I am definitely in the kinkier camp of folks who love eating to actively get FATTER. I understand the food obsession of gluttonous individuals seeing fat as a nice side effect, but the urge to transform yourself into a soft wobbly blob is my fave motivation. Eating incredibly decadent foods and totally pigging out whenever you like is like the best side effect ever. I'm one of those crazy folks who would love to just become hugely fat overnight, sidestepping the need to force calories and wait for your body to burst through weight plateaus, which can take years and is kind of a genetic lottery. Give me an ass that gets stuck in elevator doors yesterday and I'm happy.
Voice on the Aether:
If you could make any characters from any films, cartoons, tv, games or comics canonically OBESE, who would you pick & why?
ryoxxl:
Animated mums, or moms, seriously. Perhaps a bit non-specific but i'm tired of the highly-strung skinny mum with the overweight dad trope (Nicole, Marge, Lois...). We need more plump mothers in animation! ... And not hyper-stylised hourglass figures so men can safely ogle Mrs. Incredible's butt without having to comprehend that she might be heavier elsewhere with a realistic frame...
Many women naturally gain weight during pregnancy that settles and happily becomes part of their new motherly figure, it's so cute, sexy and should be celebrated! However, it's clearly a no-no among character designers unless she's a rolling pin-wielding battle axe of a woman who is always on the verge of beating up her hen-pecked husband. A boring and nasty stereotype.
Choosing specific characters who I'd prefer to see **canonically* obese is tricky one, because by today's standards it'd preclude them from any normal love interest for the sake of not offending audiences, something that all main female characters suffer from when it comes to writing. But here goes...
- **Toriel**: Motherly and a monster, she's already large but she deserves to be bigger and softer. It would do nothing but amplify her warmth and strength as a character.
- **Cookie Crumbles "aka" Rarity's Mother:** OK, another mum, a bit niche, but it'd suit her character to be bigger, offering us a glimpse of Rarity's genetic predisposition to gain weight, but also serving to enhance the "uncouth parent vs prissy child" contrast the episode was going for, albeit unfairly!
- **Chica**: She eats her bodyweight in trash and/or pizza, just make her fat already
- **Eda Clawthorne**: She's an older lady, and yet another "mum"-like figure, who just as readily could have been plump rather than skinny. She'd suit it. Witches should be fatter in general.
- **Yoko Littner, middle aged**: Ain't no way she'd be that skinny, let people age... and get fat. Pls.

To PIGGYback on a past ask (pun intended) I'd LOVE to see your Girls on all fours, snouts in a trough of slop, gigantic fat a#$%s in the air, and oinking, indulging, blushing, belching, binging, glutting and gorging themselves to rapturously euphoric, blubbery bliss and beyond! ...Just like the sloppy, slobby, shamelessly, outrageously and insatiably hot hogs they all truly crave to be!!! ๐๐ท๐ (Remember Ladies, the Pigsty is your ultimate 'Safe Space'... And there's always enough room for each and every last one of you!) ๐ฝ๐๐
ryoxxl:
Crazy hot anon. I can tell this came from a fun place. There is something insanely sexy about becoming so desperately gluttonous that you feel your humanity ebbing away, the urge to consume unimaginable quantities of the most amazing food, churned into something that you can practically inhale, wiggling your entire body on all fours knowing what you've become... and how much bigger you're going to grow. It's a dream for many women, even if they haven't allowed themselves to fully embrace it yet. They'll soon be organising themselves a one way trip to the Pigsty to fulfil their dreams of ultimate gluttony, growth and euphoric indulgence. Once the piggy snouts grow in they'll finally let themselves off the leash and start their lustful journeys toward quadruple digit weigh-in sessions and oinking enthusiastically for refills.
Pig TF is the most WG-centric of the TFs, seeing as cows bring more of the big boob milking element, whilst others animal-traits may emphasise more the change in bulk or size. I ought to do a big, hot, flabby pig TF some time, with a group of willing subjects who are simply itching to achieve complete hoggish ruination with reckless abandon! In the meantime there's always Ryoko and Ayeka, which is how this whole WGTF thing started nearly 10 years ago for me!
Voice on the Aether:
Your Loona weight-gain sequence with her growing more grinningly gleeful mischievous & confident from embracing her obesity is simply sublime, duder! ๐ I honestly ADORE the whole WG trope of gaining gluttony fattening & feedism resulting in an uber-inflated sense of self-esteem personal pride & pure raw enormously unbridled ego!!! ๐๐ท๐ And it's honestly kinda incredible how well you captured & conveyed that sense in just 4 still pics! ๐ฅต๐บ๐ฅฐ Keep up the ever awesome art, Ryoxxl! ๐จ
ryoxxl:
Thanks so much ๐! I think it came out well and wish I could bottle that fats + TF + personality shift energy more often. I really ought to draw Loona again, and make her part of my roster of doodle subjects to practice her myriad of expressions. She's my type in every sense, even with the slightly embarrassing amount of swearing...๐๐
Voice on the Aether:
I appreciate the appeal of Slim Gal to Cow/Pig/Pachyderm TF with its obvious associations of bulky burly blubber & gluttony, but how do you feel about slender dainty graceful critters *Such as deer giraffe cheetahs etc* massively packing on the pounds, greedily gorging themselves stupid & succumbing to obesity; in stark contrast to their species' super-skinny stereotype? (Perhaps even as a deliciously deliberate rebellion against the stifling conformity that other Furs thoughtlessly expect of them!)
ryoxxl:
I actually really enjoy this trope. There is something hot about the supposed โnaturalโ traits of a skinny, fast or elegant creature becoming upended into a slow, fat and heavy life akin to a cow/pig/pachyderm.
Part of this teases the fun and sexiness of a pent up gym rat or health freak turning into a huge lazy fatty. Itโs a super strong TF contrast. Cheetahs arenโt supposed to be fat, but this cheetah wants to outweigh an elephantโฆ scenarios like this explore the reality of many peoples weight gain fetish urges! Doing as youโre told until the kink takes over like a conformity elastic band snapping back after being pushed too far!
Nothing more eager than a convert. Rebellion and forbidden fruit kink fuel would be impossible to resist for some of these skinny furries. I can relate!
