friendly reminder that findtags is the best way to search tumblr’s absolutely destroyed tag system. it actually accurately looks through the tags without omitting results. it’s the only thing i use at this point because it’s the only thing that works
Full Body timelapse with breakdown :3
I guess this is part three of my process explanation? This is a basic breakdown of how I do each part of the body! I did it while drawing so hopefully seeing it in timelapse with written tips on the side helps1 A lot of it is best understood by first breaking it down into basic shapes and lines and once you get the gist down, then you can play around with different shapes :)
I think I'll do one last one with kon and explain the little details I do like clothes and expressions etc etc :)
omfg i forgot that i never showed tumblr my greatest achievement. my pride and joy, my pi-ass de résistance

So this is a totally useless rant, but as a skinny girl, I’m getting extra, extra tired of fat-shaming.
I work for a corsetier at a Renaissance Faire. We sell corsets. Not flimsy bullshit costume corsets; like real, durable, waist-training corsets. Today a woman came in with her boyfriend, so I helped her pick out a corset and try it on. While her boyfriend—who was decidedly enthused about the whole corset thing—sat watching me lace her in, he told me, grinning, “Of all the good jobs at the Renaissance Faire, I think you have the best.”
I shrugged in agreement. “I touch butts and reach down cleavage all day; I mean…” Because we like to be a bit rakish at the Faire, and, y’know, it’s true. Tying people into corsets pretty much invariably requires getting handsy.
The couple laughed at that, and the boyfriend said, “That’s the job I would want!” But then he chuckled again and said, offhand, “Or maybe not; while we were looking at the racks, there were some pretty big sizes on there!”
Our sizes are all done in inches, and the biggest we make is a 46. And you’d better believe our large sizes sell. For a second I wasn’t sure what to say to the guy’s comment, but I answered him casually. “We get a lot of beautiful big ladies in here.” Because we do. “We make corsets for real women, not Barbie dolls,” I added. Wasn’t trying to be smart, just kind of tossed it out there because that’s the line we like to use when people ask about larger sizes, and because, again, we do.
The boyfriend went quiet at that; I didn’t think anything of it, I just kept on lacing. A moment later, he said, a little awkwardly (but sincerely enough), “Didn’t mean to be offensive.”
I quickly smiled and brushed it off, said he wasn’t, said I was just saying. (Don’t want to make the customers uncomfortable, you know?) And that was the end of it. His comment had rubbed me the wrong way, but it wasn’t a big deal. Now, I wear a 20-inch corset. I’m a few cup sizes short of being one of the Barbie dolls. Like his girlfriend, I’m one of the “hot chicks”; he doesn’t have to worry about offending me by implying that I wouldn’t be fun to poke and pull at.
Honestly though, of all the people I fit sexy technically-undergarments to in a day, fat girls are maybe my favorite people to lace up. Because they are just so damn happy that we have stuff that fits them. They are so damn happy that the corsets we make in their sizes are all the same pretty, shiny colors and cool flower/dragon/skull/etc. prints that the smaller corsets are, not ugly beige and boring “granny” colors. They are so goddamn happy that at least one (of several on the grounds) corset shop carries things that they can wear, that they actually want to wear, and that they look fucking awesome in. This is only my second season working, and we’ve fit 60+ inch waists and double-K busts. The only people we’ve ever had to tell sorry, we don’t have anything that fits them, are twelve-year-old kids.
It’s half-wonderful, half-heartbreaking how excited those women get. Women who say with sad smiles, when we ask if they want to get fitted, “Oh, no, you don’t have anything that fits me,” and then are stunned when we’re 300% confident that yes we do, and we have options. Women who can’t stop smiling and looking at themselves in the mirror after we’ve got them laced in.
I had a lady last week whose waist I measured (cinching the tape tight, as per procedure) at 41 inches—honestly not all that big. So she picked out a 41-inch corset to try on. I could tell halfway through getting her laced that it was going to be a bit big for her, so I mentioned it and said she might do better to try a smaller size. She started crying on the spot. She was so overwhelmed; she couldn’t believe someone had just told her that a 41 was too big. She told me about how hard clothes shopping was for her, how her mother would tell her she needed an XXXL instead of an XXL, how she had recently lost weight but still couldn’t wear certain colors because they didn’t fit or she wasn’t confident enough.
She did end up getting her corset, and after I checked her out she asked if she could give me a hug, so we ended up standing there hugging each other for a minute. While we did, I told her, “Do not ever let anyone tell you any bullshit. You are gorgeous.” She said, “I have a new boyfriend and he keeps telling me that.” I told her he was right, and to just keep telling herself she’s gorgeous; it was okay if she didn’t always believe it, but to keep telling herself anyway. (That’s how I talked myself through shit when I had bad anxiety.)
We all know fat-shaming is bad. The stupidity, fatphobia, and misogyny of it has pissed me off since I first became aware of it. But working with clothing, especially as figure-hugging and precise as corsets, has given me a new perspective on it—how much it affects people and just how shitty it is. Like, what does it say that I had a grown, only average-big woman crying into my shoulder because she was so overjoyed not to be the uppermost extremity of what a manufacturer can clothe?
My job rocks and it’s really rewarding, but sometimes it highlights some of the ugliest shit about society. I’m so glad I work at a shop that’s not bullshit about body types and operates with more people in mind than just scrawny white chicks like me. The fat women I work with are a ton of fun to lace up, and they’re so much more than their size—they’re cool, they’re smart, they’re funny, they’re sweet, they’re great to talk to, and yes, they’re hot. I’m so damn done with them getting short-changed and shamed by petty fucks who refuse to make them nice clothes, who refuse to even try to work for them, who refuse to consider them pretty. This whole rant was useless and won’t get read, but I had to vent because it’s been driving me nuts.
So actually, screw you, random dude. Fat girls are the highlight of my job.
Earn it act
Hey besties,,,, have you heard of the earn it act?
tw mention of porn (not in detail), sexual harassment a new bill called the EARN IT act is currently in senate right now. it’s being advertised as a way to ‘protect children from explicit content’, but the reality of it is that its super dangerous. if it’s passed websites like tumblr, archive of our own, wattpad, twitter ect., will be held legally responsible for the content that it’s users put out. one of those consequences being that anything considered ‘dangerous to children’ must eliminated or be sued. bc this bill is backed by a queerphobic group, this includes ANY LGBT+ content, education about one’s sexuality. if this bill passes then companies will be forced to destroy encryption bc the bill is not specific at all about what it wants moderated. for the record, that’s the thing that keeps the government from looking into people’s personal DMs, images ect., ect., this means people talking about their trauma, being queer, activists for human right’s data will be free game. its SUPER dangerous. would you take resources from me to help, or at least spread the word around as much as you can? https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xcjeKqml8QbqiaTfDiciMQ5AnjxoVHh6T6sAMM5D2EU/edit
Hi. Usually, I use this blog for jokes and shenanigans, etc., but today I’m bringing up something very, VERY serious.
Huge TW up ahead for r//pe and s/a.
I made this thread today, because there’s been a lot going on during school. A BUNCH of afab people (mostly people of color) have been stepping up and coming forward about their r/pe and ass/ult by several upperclassman at the school, and nothing has been done about it.
Recently, a video came out of a junior being r/ped on the night of homecoming while she was drunk.
He was arrested.
He got bailed out.
They let him back on campus.
I made a whole thread, pinging the school and all. I also made a separate tweet about it. For those of you with Twitter, I need you all to retweet these threads with the tag #JusticeForGulf. Ping the school even.
We’re gonna start protesting and rallying during the lunches and I need this to get big so that hopefully something will get done.
When I went to the office about the guy that ass/ulted me they ended up telling me that there was nothing they could do, because there was no proof. I later came to find that he ass/ulted a few other girls as well— but after finding out that there was WAY MORE than just a few, as well THIS, all for them to be shut down and told that it wasn’t enough? It pisses me off.
Please spread the word. Post this wherever you can and SPREAD. THE. WORD.
This can’t go on for any longer. We need to put a stop to this and deal out due justice.

My face is having uncontrollable spasms. Great. It hurts really, really, really bad.
I think part of why I have trouble explaining pain to the doctor is when they ask about the pain scale I always think “Well, if someone threw me down a flight of stairs right now or punched me a few times, it would definitely hurt a lot more” so I end up saying a low number. I was reading an article that said that “10” is the most commonly reported number and that is baffling to me. When I woke up from surgery with an 8" incision in my body and I could hardly even speak, I was in the most horrific pain of my life but I said “6” because I thought “Well, if you hit me in the stomach, it would be worse.”
So proud of my mother for doing her own research after I sent her that meme. A sign she hung in her car window.
