One of my pet peeves with how people draw fat characters is when they use this type of mouth to denote who's fat:
The curved cheek I'm assuming (extremely optimistically) is supposed to show fatter facial features, like bigger cheeks. But instead of that type of mouth having that effect, all it does is make the fat character look like they always have food in their mouth and are perpetually eating because that round edge to a mouth is most often drawn when a cartoon depicts characters eating food.
Compare how Naruto is drawn here while eating:
To how Naruto is drawn while not eating:
That mouth type is also usually a lazy attempt at drawing fat people, which you can even see with the two examples above of The Owl House and Pokemon. (Willow especially is a lazy attempt at drawing fatness. Some people still don't even know to this day that she was a half-assed attempt at having a single main fat character in The Owl House because that is how thin she looks. She's so barely fat that I'm close to calling her "fat-coded" instead, which I didn't even know was something possible to draw. Great job. /s You can only tell she's "fat" when she's put next to the stick thin characters, and that was intentional. After all, what better way to only just barely have fat representation in your show than to do the drawing equivalent of a magician saying "Now you see me...now you don't!" And the added insult to injury with how the show's creators made her thin at the end of the series is just cruel.)
Don't half-ass fat representation, don't draw fat people as walking fat stereotypes, and please don't use that mouth type for portraying fatness. Allow us some actual humanity during the few times you'll ever care enough to draw fat people.

Something new, right? The surprising thing is that for the most part I am a little unhappy about some of the events here, and especially the fact that because of this my asset fell to complete zero.
If this happens again by "mistake", I simply will not return my account.

Super random but can you draw Jocelyn Baratheon? I feel like she's underrated as Prince Aemon’s wife and Rhaenys’ mom
