This is a bit out of the blue but I just wanted you to know that the way you draw your OC genuinely makes me feel better about my body in a way nothing else ever has. I used to be pretty over weight and even though I lost most of it I still have a lot of extra skin on my gut area and like her I've always been a pretty busty girl. Seeing you celebrate that kind of body in your OC is just... I have no words. Thank you โค๏ธ
I don't think you understand how happy this makes me, that my art helped you feel a bit better about your body.
I've struggled with body dysmorphia for so long, and I've learned to accept my body and to see each appearance as a gift and one's unique character design, so to speak.
The extra skin/fat in the gut especially is something that a lot of people (especially women) struggle with, and I personally think that's a crime considering how cool I think it looks. A large bust is also somehow both "celebrated" by society by being sexualized and then in the same vein people will be made fun of their chest when it looks anything other than conventionally hot (ie when it sags, etc)
Laura is supposed to be an evil character but her body is not what makes her evil. It is just a part of her (one that she got hurt for), and one's body shouldn't be punished for its appearance. It's doing its best for you.
