Not only symbolic… can confirm giants apparently love to drag us around on a leash.

Why do I feel slightly called out…

@The-Big-G That’s a very good point - I have no regrets about embracing my kink and engaging with the community more. Ending my eternal lurking truly helped me, regardless of what I feel right now.

Funny you should talk about low heart beart. I sometimes experience a condition called Bigeminy, arrhythmia due to premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), which causes some cheap heart sensors or pulse oxymeters to report roughly half my current heartbeart (ie. 25 instead of 50). Good way to freak out the new nurses!

@littlest-lily I’m fine with viewing them on Deviantart. I mean, you could still post simple update notifications here, and just link to your WT/DA?

Like peeling a hard boiled egg.

Or a little shrimp, hehe.

I don’t want to rant and rave about WH40K but I’ve been playing close to 20 years (+/- 25 if you include 2nd ed. Space Hulk). I bought, and sold, many different armies for many editions. Back in the days, I tried to paint my own minis. LOL. After that epic fail, I commissioned people to paint them, but now I have my own slave teenager at home who has infinitely more artistic talent than I do that does it for free.

My figurines collection started without me even trying, just slowly bought over the years, collector editions games and blurays. I have superheroes, video game & anime characters, all in the 4" to 12" range. I should get my collection properly displayed, still a bit so self-conscious. Speaking of, the next thinkg I’m after is a Phicen doll, they are 10" high which is still too big for my taste but apparently their “skin” is made of this soft silicon which feels human to the touch, and seamlessly covers their entire body (again, feel free to judge me people - I’m still really curious to hold one! )

@blehb That’s the sort of medical condition I could get used to

@HHunter1 said in Her Paperwork:

I worry I’m putting effort into creating something while someone puts a few prompts into a program

My two cents : I still believe there is value to making it yourself. It’s like saying, ‘why bother painting this landscape on canvas if I can wipe out my cell and take a picture’? That was the fear behind the invention of photography last century, and digital photography more recently (which I’m old enough to remember causing heated debates with ‘true’ photographers).

My take will always be that the act of creating the art, the actual process - brush strokes, words written, clay sculpted - are as important as the end result itself. Art and artist can’t be dissociated - the fact that a human mind and/or body was behind it has intrinsic value. What another person is using as a medium is irrelevant.

I do have a problem with selling synthographies, as it was trained on copyrighted materials for which the original artists weren’t compensated. But if we focus solely on size content such as what is posted above, honestly, it’s incredibly niche - a drop in the ocean of what generative AI is used for, and a harmless one at that. I mean, sure for us it matters, because we’re macro-/micro- philes. My real concerns are abuse of generative AI for media manipulation and fake news.

Disclaimer: Echodeck is a cool dude and isn’t selling his art, or hiding the fact that he’s using AI. Someone shared his work here without specifying (or knowing) that it was the case. So please don’t lash out on him.

@Olo said in Do you have any size kinks or interests that you feel are unusual?:

What might be challenging for someone of the SW perspective is to realistically model how a male Biggo who never thought about being attracted to a SW before might “come around” to it

Hehe like I said, I’m fully conscious of my own bias, I was talking from my own perspective as a certified, unrepenting microphile. Honestly it probably wouldn’t take much to get me going when in company of a tiny lady, that’s for sure. Shrinking is already so hot in itself!

But the point you mention is close to home as I’ve always liked to imagine the SW as a normie, not as a macrophile. But deep down inside, I hope she comes around to liking the experience of being smol. Part Stockholm syndrome, part self-discovery, and part because… I’m such a nice giant.

@Mrgoblinging7 Thanks, I hope it does work for me too.

I think the nature of the fantasy itself, of wanting to dominate/shrink/reduce really makes it harder to paint ourselves (biggos) in a positive light. I can rarely see myself as anything else than the “bad guy” in my fantasies, or maybe the hypocrite savior at best.

I’m still not sure what I’ll need to feel better (an actual 3" tall lady would def help!), but gaining a better understanding of myself is the first step.

@Olo Love it! Maybe you should add an indication in the title that AI was used to enhance the image? It’s a very good base 3D Render that was post-processed using AI “inpainting”. EpicIllusionist is the master of this technique, I’m actually delving into it for other projects of mine, using Blender or other 3D software as a base then pushing the realism with inpainting.

Regardless, thanks for sharing his groundbreaking work.

“oooops I went a bit overboard shrinking you”. The whole feeling small IN A DOLLHOUSE.

Oooh I love this too! Too eager on the shrink ray trigger You probably know this one but there is a nice scene on this theme from a series called “The Collector” :

@giantmaneddie Thanks, and sorry to hear you’re also going through tough times. I’m hoping my therapist will prove worthy of my trust, I’d regret skipping over this part of me.

You know… I’ve been married and trust me you can be years in a relationship and still feel alone.

You mention pets, I think my cat is a great help to my mental health. I got her when she was so tiny, she could fit into the palm of my hand. You can say I always loved cute, small things.

@Olo Wow this is an incredible artist you found there, Olo. My favourite art movements are without a doubt Romanticism and Impressionism, and he’s clearly influenced by those. Also reminded me of the classic fantasy/sci-f pulp covers. I couldn’t resist having a peek at his portfolio and there’s a surprising amount of size-related stuff in there. Please note that some of it can be slightly disturbing or NSFW, so I labeled them (no gore or anything, but still)

• Down the Rabbit Hole
• Magic Mushroom (NSFW)
• The Sleeping Giant
• The Cyclop & Miss Muffet (NSFW, swipe for 2nd pic)
• Special Ingredient (NSFW)
• Predator and Prey (NSFW)
• Centipede Scare
• Out Of The Soup (NSFW, swipe for making-of)
• New one (NSFW, WIP)
• Midnight Ride (swipe for making-of)

Beautiful art.

Of course you’re not alone. I’m both spectrums depending on my mood, but at the end of the day it’s all down to personal preferences, for instance I’m not a fan of higher pitched voices, but in this I feel I’m in the minority. I’m also a fan of shrinking out of clothes, but not really for the sexual aspect itself, more for the added vulnerability and/or embarrassment.

There’s no right or wrong way to enjoy the kink. Both SFW and NSFW sides shouldn’t judge each other, and respect their differences.

@skysayl said in Depression and Size Kink:

almost every single pulse ox in my facility is cheaply made and not worth a hollow-punched toonie

Hollow punched toonie, lol I’m stealing that expression.

It was actually in a private clinic (I know, shame on me) and from the look in her eyes she probably thought I was going to flatline right here and there.

I should bring my EKGs next time and explain to her what’s happening lol.

“Haha, this shrinking thing was a blast! What a fun idea! Now, let’s eat some of those cakes so we can grow back to our regular size”

Love their reactions!

There is something that touches my soul when the shrinking was voluntary and turned out a fun little experience, mainly because in the back of their minds the possibility of growing back was never an issue. When it turns out going back to normal is no longer an option, that moment of realization is pure bliss to me.
