#learn to..... draw fat people....

[chubsette]

Someday could you give us tips to draw chubby bodies?

i once put together some tips on how I draw fat for a friend so i suppose i can share those right now :) just keep in mind that these might not help everyone and that i mostly don't know what i'm talking about. it's just how i personally draw idk

and i cannot reccomend the book morpho: fat and skin folds by Michael Lauricella enough. it's an amazing resource for learning and it really changed the way i understand fat as an artist

edit: excuse all the typos on the images fml

I love how you draw fat people genuinely!! Do you have any specific references you use/used or art you pull inspiration from? < artist who also would like to have the anatomy fluidity that you do in your art

vesta z is the only one i can think of off the top of my head! i really admire they way he draws fat bodies, especially with the delicacy of her lineart and the way she renders hair and clothing….. fuuuuck truly he’s one of my inspirations when it comes to drawing the human figure!! but even then i don’t often study his works. i don’t really have much inspiration taken from other artists (at least not consciously) when it comes to drawing the human form, sorry to disappoint!!

a lot of the stuff i’ve learned has just been pure instinct to me. drawing has always been something i’ve done since i was small, so deciding i want to draw something doesn’t require much practice until i’ve got it down. it all comes naturally at this point :(

keep questioning why there are no fat people in any cast of characters by the way, be it in games or movies or anime or whatever. the absence of fatness gets harder and harder and harder to ignore once you start looking for it, especially when you think about how many fat people you see every day. why is skinny ALWAYS the default when it comes to character design. why aren’t you giving these characters varied body types that actually suit their professions ages and lived experiences. why is the only fat character in the entire cast a fucking VILLAIN. why is fatness synonymous with greed and corruption. how come you can render all these incredible pieces of art in mind blowing detail but there exists ZERO fucking fat people in your ENTIRE CATALOGUE. boring boring boring boring BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How I feel when people make Bruce thin

My favourite thing about Tim body type arguments is that really he's not even that fat. He literally just has a bigger frame than everyone else, more of a dad bod. It's not like we're asking you to learn to draw fat rolls and double chins, just give him some actual body mass

My patience for artists who only draw skinny people is, ironically, thin.

Sincerely I love the way you draw bodies!! Esp in sexual contexts they look so genuine and fun while keeping a sense of realness :)

thank you!!! i love shapes and abstraction and i love drawing bodies!!! it helps that i stick to bodies i’m comfortable with, and i’m lucky i’m comfortable with drawing a pretty wide range of figures!

I'm gonna stop interacting with sydney art that just doesn't get his body type right

that man is NOT a skinny twink!!!!!!!!

[stressedjester]

Cis and skinny artists always joke about "oh I draw characters naked because clothes are too hard teehee" or talk about how important and non-sexual artistic nudity is but as soon as they see artwork of a fat or trans character without clothes it's suddenly not the same and is apparently "fetishizing" or whatever. Even when there's obviously nothing sexual about it simply because it makes them feel icky
