i've gotten a lot of very kind feedback about how i draw fat bodies, so i thought id make a little guide showing my thought process!! this is far from comprehensive, but maybe it'll be helpful to anyone who feels intimidated drawing plus size furs :)
if anything is unclear, please feel free to ask questions in the replies or reblogs!! <3
it's march 5th, which is dissociative identity awareness day!! i seldom talk about being plural on here, but i am, and i've had this comic idea for quite a while now... i have P-DID, which is a label under the OSDD umbrella that not many people know about! i think these little infographics can be helpful to anyone who might be questioning or newly-realizing/diagnosed as plural, i know talking to other systems was one of the things that helped me out the most when i was learning all this stuff about myself. hopefully it might help you, too- or maybe you'll just get to learn something new!
the colors here are from this flag, just with a few adjustments to make it work better for something like a comic. i'll also link my sources under the cut, for anyone interested in reading more!
reblogs are appreciated!

(as a note, i don't particularly like the language used in the ICD-11. i think presenting any form of dissociative disorder as inherently alarming and destructive, especially toward anyone other than the plural individual themself, is... questionable, at best. but it's the most official and academic source i can provide on the matter, so i figured i'd include it.
i much prefer pluralpedia as a source for learning about these things- it's made by and for systems, and the language used is a lot more focused on the individual(s)!)
