I don't know why. I just decided to lay them all out side by side. They're not as consistent as I would've hoped (something to work on for any future sequences), but it is fun to see her journey over the course of the year.
Wow. That's a lot of flub.
As their busy week of working remotely wound down, her boss was just trying to make small talk on their follow up meeting. Before the three day weekend. But little do they know what she gets up to behind closed doors (& hopefully in a room with some fair amount of drainage).
She's been planning this for months. After finding weird foreign websites offering bootleg versions of this banned prototype gum? Let's just say it took a while to get here.

2021-01-28 12:57:35 +0000 UTC View PostIn this installment, despite experiencing a very bad day, Holly experiences a moment of clarity. But for how long? Also Rachel & Camille share a moment.
After a very long wait, it's finally here. I've been trying to work my way through it, but I sort of backed my way into a corner & had to try & establish a bunch of things all at once while also trying to handle Holly's angst. And while dealing with a myriad of things in my own life on top of that LoL Anyway I think I manage...

On one of her last streams of the wild ride that was 2020, Hope thought she'd reflect a little & give her community some shoutouts for seeing her through such a rough year. Only it starts to dawn on her a little late that their generosity may have harbored a few ulterior motives. Especially these last few weeks!
Oh well. Not much she can really do to protest it now. Might as well just sit back & enjoy. And maybe dish out week long bans to any freak that happens to spam th...
... I can't seem to get a handle on things lately. It's unfair to you guys.
But just so you know, since I haven't posted very much I 'paused billing' for the month? I don't know if it's a little too late in the month, but if what I'm reading is right, that means you shouldn't get charged automatically Jan 1, & things will resume again Feb 1. It's on me, so enjoy a free month!
That said, I restarted November's Hope image & should have that shortly. I have December's line...
Holiday means time with the family. And for Hope, never admitting her mother may have been write!

I actually started this over twice. And still not totally thrilled with the resulting pose. Really have to practice my uber fats as I'm so used to just making things round. And it might look like there's no food in this, but she has a Ho-ho stashed in her hoodie pocket. If only she could reach. Anyway thanks for being patient wit...
Emma has a tendency to put on weight very easily, soaking up calories almost the way a sponge would moisture. If she isn't diligent, things... can get a little out of hand.
But usually? It's the winter where she often finds herself slacking off, & the Spring, the harsh, jiggly road back! Of course, 2020 had other plans. Looking herself in the mirror, she realized she might be in a spot of bother if she's this unseasonably wide just going IN to the holiday season!<...
After the huge hassle it took to get her to her check up, it looks like poor Melina just received a bit of bad news. And isn't taking it too well. Best to get her back home quick. And make as much room as physically possible.

Another quickie. The novelty I was aiming for (but not quite sure if I pulled off) with this one, was having her be so large, she's actually wearing a bed sheet with a hole ripped in the middle to offer her some slight bit of modesty. But it being a she...
It looks like it's starting to (FINALLY) dawn on Hope that some changes have been afoot.
Huh.

So this is extra late & I'm sorry. These past few weeks have been nuts. Between my dayjob, the election, & helping friends quarantine (long story), regrettably it got put off for a bit. Good thing it wasn't timely or anything...
Anyway, here's how Hope spent her Halloween. Yes, it seems like a lifetime ago already with the way this year just seems to work...

Just a quick close up of a poor girl in a puffy predicament. Which a bunch of goofy little graphical effects thrown on for shits & giggles. Process included if you're interested.

Here it is, the most wonderful time of the year.
Aww but what's this?!
Seems our poor girl faces a bit of a dilemma. Having given in to temptation & foregoing all inhibition, it seems she's consumed so much of her absolute favorite seasonal delight that the very thought of even just leaving the house has become such a daunting prospect. And after running two or three different delivery app services ragged over the course of the past few weeks, now, even they won't accept her o...

In a way? You can't really blame her. The realtor sprayed that fresh-baked cookie smell all over the dang house & it's maddening! And it's been an whole hour since her last stream! But good for her! Even when she had a full time position, owning her own home was something of a pipe dream. But now? Apparently after finding her true calling? Well. Dreams do come true.
Well maybe other than the tight doorways of course...

Long week where I had to have my computer in pieces. Everything's fine, but my current set up is... well... not the best for efficiency. But I was able to do this variant I was toying with. No connection canonically with the other beyond the same name, but I like being able to have two separate scenarios stemming from the one image. More soon!

I'd say I was on a bit of a butt kick (heh) at the moment, but to fair, this one was started a long time ago, back a few weeks into the start of quarantine. The angle was a real pain for me. Not a tablet drawing, this was all done on my desktop (so sorry, no timelapse). I just wanted an excuse to draw a nice rear at the time but didn't really have much of a back story. And nothing really came to me in the time it took to finish things up.
So instead, I decided to let other people'...

During a brief respite in what's become a marathon of a juicing session, Marta has a moment's peace to take stock of her situation.
In many ways, she feels much like the gum that put her in this situation: chewed up, poked & prodded, pressed & squeezed. All in service of getting the massive amounts of fluid out of her system before... well. Let's just say it was pretty narrowly avoided.
Worst of all? Even now, despite the thousands of gallons they were able to ...

If you're familiar with the artist w00t, I was sort of inspired by some of the before & after style images they do. And decided to follow through on an old idea of having a skinny girl "joke" about not being able to control herself around certain eateries. And I worked in the chain from a certain story, just as an easter egg.
Time lapse isn't as thorough as the last couple but you can at least see me do the line w...
Stuffed to the gills & feeling a bit vulnerable, Hope briefly gets a little sentimental & gracious towards her growing audience.
Fingers crossed her new chair comes in soon though. Her ottoman's just a temporary replacement. But by the looks of things, it might be even more temporary than she's figured.

Finally got the opportunity to finish this one up. Oof. Further format changes as things get... um... wider. Hope the balloons are ok, if a bit cramped. Not tota...

Poor Emily here got a little too used to working from home. So close to the fridge & not necessarily near the mirror. But now the bill has come due & her employers are expecting her in person for a meeting in the office tomorrow.
Boy, are they in for a surprise!

Yes, I'm sort of recycling a premise from this recent Bellflower, guilty. But it's a premise I kind of like, so sue me!

2020-08-26 11:36:30 +0000 UTC View PostIn this installment, we check in on Dawn, who has been MIA for a bit. But for good reason. We also follow up with Deidre, who might've gone a bit overboard. All before seeing what Rachel's up to.
Sorry for the long wait. The Dawn bit held me up & honestly, reading back, I'm still not sure about the Deidre bit. Might revise, but I'm sick of sitting on it & want to move forward honestly! More soon!

That factory tour & the ensuing... troubles were more than half a year ago!
And sure! Prisha would be the first to admit that self-appointing herself as chief taste-tester of a gum that was clearly labeled as a prototype still under development, was perhaps a bit, shall we say "imprudent?" But she dealt with the fallout all of that! The best she could!
Well... perhaps more specifically, she couldn't do all that much, given her size & shape. It was a...

Usually, in these sort of situations, the model often remains unrepentant for whatever slights caused the magic user to cast a spell to turn them into a gas-filled zeppelin. Sure, they'll fuss & moan & carry on, but our pin up girl here at least seems somewhat genuinely remorseful.
Unfortunately, once thing are set in motion...? Well... let's hope that dress of hers is somehow even stretchier!

Well, in lieu of her cushy 9 to 5 desk job, it seems like Hope followed through on her goal of becoming a content creator. And apparently her mukbang live streams are steadily growing & pulling incredible numbers. A hungry, unemployed girl like herself gets to eat, get showered with attention, & make a little revenue on the side? It's almost like there's got to be some downside to all of this. Hmmmm....
If there is? It's something she's not noticing it. So let the good times rol...

So I couldn't sleep last night.
And I didn't really have that much of a premise in my mind as I set out. But the tablet was fully charged. So more than anything, this was mainly just a challenge to see how far along I could get a drawing in its drawing app. I mean it was my first time really progressing past the rough sketch or even just basic line art phase. It took way longer than it should have & there were a lot of issues with masks & things as it was weird getting used to...
In this 40th installment, Holly tries to maintain the upbeat (albeit concealing), chipper attitude that's gotten her through life. But things are becoming overwhelming & forcing a smile might not be enough as they come to a head. Even in her own head. And we check in oh so briefly with an old friend.
I've been drawing a lot when I have the time & unfortunately slacked on this for longer than I should have. I had the initial sequence written & liked it a lot, but the rest wa...
Well, just like for the rest of us, Hope's 2020 is just a series of disasters. But being the plucky young optimist she is, she's determined to roll with the... wait.
"Mukbang?"
Oh, Hope.
"No."
"Don't."

Was able to sneak in a short little quick Blueberry piece because it's been a while. Attached is a timelapse, though I did the text & a bit more polish after moving it onto my PC.
Poor thing's confused as to why they're using "produce" terminology around her right now. Unfortunately for her, she'll find out all too soon.

Poor thing.
On the one hand, she's not entirely wrong. There is some correlation, between whatever it is that's causing people to stare & what's throwing off her balance. It's probably just NOT any sort of stigma based around being outside anymore.
Wobble, wobble.
