For whatever reason, I've been really enjoying working on this sequence, so I went a little (way) farther with her than I originally intended! what i thought was going to be 6, mayyyyybe 7 parts has turned into something like 15 or 16! i'm sure no one's really going to complain about that, but it does mean that things will take longer than before - especially since i'm going to be writing a story to go with it
also, even though i'm leaving the poll open indefinitely it looks like there is a very clear winner: fat. so despite her not actually getting fat (like in the limbs or face or anything), she will certainly be gaining weight the old-fashioned way! i guess some people just have the belly genes.
for now, enjoy this look at some of the runners-up to the pics that have actually made the cut! also! also also! the sizes i'm trying for in the sequence aren't realllly able to be picked up by the txt2img, so I'm having to do quite a lot of manipulating images by hand and re-running the AI which is something I haven't had to do really since leaving 1.5 behind! partially because the models are better but mostly because i haven't really been bothered to even try for that kind of size. when the models perform perfectly at smaller sizes, it can be a bit of a barrier to want to all of a sudden spend hours working on a single pic. and yet...i find myself missing it which is why i've been doing it for these larger bellies!
bit of a ramble there. forgive, forgive
