Goblins

[LK]

Midna has her own following. Not a fan myself due to the oversized and ornate head jewelry. Goblin depictions often have them punkish, so I respond more to that. Also, more human-like features including oversized hands, feet, and ears.

I can agree that her headgear is a bit much.

I do rather like full-sized Midna, though. :-D

I find the idea of a story that covers the more mundane aspects of very slow shrinking fascinating. How the woman's life and relationships would change as she gets smaller and smaller would be very interesting to explore.

My favorite video idea would be a vlog style story of a woman slowly shrinking, with details about her daily life and examples of her shrinking, like showing the viewer her too-big shirt and pants that are swallowing her feet. A height marker would be excellent. Something where she's slowly panicking about it and eventually stops going to work and eventually stops at about three feet, and then invites her girl friend over to take care of her, but we realize her friend is the one to shrink her. Plot twist: her friend leaves the shrinking potion or whatever out and it end with her realizing she's now shrinking.

I do like the idea of someone being so small as to be an exploration of the world at a minute scale. Something TEMPORARY. There was an artist who showed two women competing in a chess game where every piece lost reduced them in size. That same artist liked to show women shrinking into their shoes and creating a cavernous and more interesting depiction than I see from Clips Sites that stick a microscopic camera into footwear.

This whole thing doesn't work without stylized representation.

Touche'. While there's always a chance at there being an adventerous borrowers-style future for a shrinking victim, that is again something that's hardly ever explored in process works. Usually it's just shrink-n'-fuck. "NOW YOU'RE MY SLAVE." That bleeds in to TG too. Boy becomes girl. Girl becomes some stupid bimbo-slut. Girl gets the brains fucked out of her by some big-dicked man. End of story. There's a reason I hardly visit TGComics anymore. In terms of shrinking, it's part of the reason I'm also a big fan of fairy transformations. You'll more often see her adapting to her new life at her new size. Still not a WHOLE lot, but more often. I guess that comes with the territory of fetish works.

Well, at least there's RP for that sort of thing.

I <3 Suti's art.

Hey, you kinda impressed me with this thread, Lore. I haven't seen enough of this sweet side of you. I know in rl, certainly would love to be a short stack or at least lose a couple of inches. Too bad this is just a fantasy though. But hey, there are certainly a lot of real short chicks out there for ya so - there's that, hun. Hey, dartnet and insomniac, I reeeaasly <3 slow sw. and Zoney, yeah there can be a future for smaller sizes.

But if you stop at half size, that might be a hott and huggable fun size, Sai and Lore, but, um, well I guess I interact with SW stories and art a little differently than you. That's all I'll say, except the process is the thing. More waves of process - the smaller - the better. Thats why some kinds of RP are really hard for me. Like tinynekofan's. He or she's such a good writer and she inspires you to write well too, but it's hard to have fun to, if catch my meaning. This is why interactives would be soooooo good here!

One last thought, Lore. Your concern and thoughtfulness for the SW is sweet compared to your buddy jae, who's less well known art does depict some horrific violence toward woman. It's hard to worry about the future of a woman if she's been stabbed to death.

I am not that great a designer. I can't make characters that stand out. I am playing a Facebook game where each of the characters that you interact with are stunning and highly-detailed visual representations of different cultures and fantasy archetypes. If I have one criticism, they are all human! Anyway.

I can pinpoint good subjects for different processes. An idea I have had rumbling around in my head is to have someone afflicted with an extremely rare disease (one in a billion incident rate) that found its way to U.S. shores instead of where it is typically encountered in China.

This young woman starts shrinking over a period of months. She takes it in stride and copes as best as she can. She's an art student who considers what's happening to her as the project of a life time. The striking image I have is this woman in an oversized hoodie, long baggy jeans that extend past her feet and droop over a high pair of platform sneakers, and a knit-cap beanie that dangles over the back of her head.

Also see this woman as a barista at an independent coffee shop who has a little more leeway in how she presents herself. Maybe punkish?

There are going to people who enter her life who only see her as a novel sexual outlet, and when she gets small enough she might get into that with someone she mistakes as concerned for her well-being before its clear he's manipulating her into bed. She'll pass a threshold where doing her job becomes such a struggle that it puts into question whether she can keep going.

Comics are easier than written stories to "get it right."

[qzar9999]

That actually sounds like a pretty interesting concept. I'd ask if I could write a story with it, but I've got a lot on my plate already.

Yes it does sound like a really interesting concept and it sounds like you have some great RP partners. I wish I had more time for RPs too. My work is ballistic lately.

That's sounds amazing.
