Is it just me, or are the most visible heartbeats coming from the leanest characters?

I'm not sure if this is in reference to my art alone or just cardio art in general.

As for my art specifically, lean characters (like Sora) don't need much to make a visible heart whereas curvy characters (like Rena) need a bit more shaping for it to look right and not totally insane, so it sometimes looks like less.

Then there's Snowdrop who has a lot of "cushioning" so her heart is more hidden.

Given how radioactive the community has been getting, I need to be very clear.

I'm not going anywhere but I have zero tolerance for this horrible, creepy, entitlement that's been steadily growing in this community. It desperately needs to stop.

They take advantage of the fact that most women are conditioned to not cause a fuss and turning a blind eye.

Do not turn a blind eye.

Don't soften your language because this community is niche.

Call it out as it as.

Screenshot, report, block and start naming names.

I've turned anon off for the foreseeable future for this reason. Any asks that are anonymous after this point were received before the change.

We need to get our act together.

Feel free to drop some ideas in replies if you got them.

[materiaheartt]

Sorry I vanished, had some bad pain BUT I'm on meds and I feel a lot better.

[materiaheartt]

Does Sora watch or read any cardiophile content?

He tried to look it up when he heard about cardiophilia, he got too embarrassed and backed out

[materiaheartt]

how often does Sora notice his heart skipping?

He finds his heart kicks off the moment he realises he hadn't felt a flutter that day

[materiaheartt]

Got any heart related questions for Sora?

[materiaheartt]

Due to her species and size, Snowdrop's heart rate can drop down to the mid 30s when asleep.

Sorry for the black borders, learning a new editing software

Finally managed to draw, been so busy

Anyone got ideas for me to doodle so I can de-rust?

[materiaheartt]

I already love your art style and animations, but also your art has helped me be more comfortable with my own (naturally) slightly irregular heartbeat, so thank you so much

That's really sweet to hear, genuinely.

I sometimes worry about people who have these issues, like skipped beats or afib, feeling upset that I draw it so often. Some characters like Rena even somewhat enjoying the sensation. It comes from a very vulnerable place for me but I still don't wanna upset people, you know? (chronic overthinker I know lol)

Hearing that the animations helped you feel comfortable with yours is a weight off my mind

Was relaxing and felt my heart skipping again, managed to capture it

Breathing might sound a bit heavy because I'm very congested from hayfever. My heart either hates the pollen or the meds as it seems to kick up a fuss around this time of year

[materiaheartt]

Hi. I like your art-style. Very peak.

Thank you! <3

Need to do some drawing but been very busy and hayfever is destroying me LOL

But hopefully I'll get onto doing some more art

[materiaheartt]

Sorry haven't posted anything for a bit, just been busy and dealing with my brain feeling like spaghetti

Nothing bad! Just doing a lot of thinking about things I struggle with and considering assessment is all

[materiaheartt]

Ok so I think you're the... best SFW cardio artist on here...? Yeah, yeah that checks out. Here's your metal, and all your OCs get a chu on the forehead, and a sticker.

Omg thank you, that's so sweet

Should make some more art, just need to update my video software the one I normally use just stopped rendering

[materiaheartt]

I'm back after a trip for my birthday, ya girl is 31

Maybe Sora is feeling a little extra anxious one day so he wants to listen to a slower heart like Snowdrops?

When Sora is calm enough to accept a cuddle, Snowdrop is the perfect candidate
