Nyo-ho! Fat GyJo Week is Approaching!

✩ What is Fat GyJo Week?

Fat GyJo week is a theme week (Feb 14 - Feb 20) for artists, writers, cosplayers, and any other creatives who would like to participate. It is a week to celebrate and make/share art of plus-sized depictions of Gyro Zeppeli and Johnny Joestar, and celebrate fat bodies in a time of rampant fatphobia.

✩ Why is Fat GyJo Week a “Thing?”

Fat GyJo week initially started out as a joke amongst friends about drawing fat Gyro on Fat Tuesday. It further spread to the idea of Fat GyJo February, which was then solidified into a theme week that would encapsulate Valentines Day, Fat Tuesday, and the Lunar New Year of the Horse! Fat GyJo week is a time to celebrate body positivity and fat liberation in fandom spaces in a time where fatphobia and thinness being seen as the default beauty standard is on the rise. It is a week where everyone can appreciate the art of headcanon, embrace bodily diversity, and have fun drawing silly cowboys!

✩ How Do I Participate?

The short answer is: you can participate in any way you’d like! The long answer is: a set of prompts will be shared that you can work off of if you’d like, interpreting them in any way you see fit. You can create art, write fanfictions or headcanons, do media analysis, cosplay a character, or more! Anyone can also participate by interacting with and reblogging from other artists and writers. Share the love and show your support!

✩ Additional Q&A Answered below the cut!

✩ Can I Use a Prompt, but Draw Thin GyJo?

I won’t stop you, but I ask you to please not use Fat GyJo Week tags. There is plenty of amazing GyJo art out there that depicts the two as thin - this is a week to celebrate the exception to the norm!

✩ Are NSFW Creations Allowed?

Yep! Just make sure that they are tagged appropriately and use the appropriate content labels, so that those who don't wish to see them can filter for them.

✩ Do I Need to Make Ship Art? Can I Just Draw Johnny or Gyro?

You can make and share art of them together, seperately, as a couple, as friends, or anything else that you would like! It doesn’t even necessarily need to be Johnny and Gyro. If you feel inspired to make something based off of another SBR character, go right ahead!

✩ Who Is Running Fat GyJo Week?

Fat GyJo week is run by @aliendromeda, who is also the artist behind @gyroshrine :]

✩ I Have Another Question!

Feel free to send in an ask, I would be happy to answer!

Sorry for the silence on my end, folks! Life has been awfully busy these past few days. Let’s call it Fat GyJo February as I catch up on these reblogs, eh? I’ll make a new post after February is over, as a retrospect/about the future of this blog! In the meantime: thank you to everyone who participated and is continuing to participate!! All your beautiful art means SO much to me. 🩵

Fat GyJo cheating at Bingo against the Devil himself, or something. Seems like something they'd do.
