@littlest-lily how dare you share this gift distraction

This comic distracted me for DAYS. God, it’s done so well. I wasn’t a big fan of Astarion before, but this made me ease up on him and give him a chance (I know the comic isn’t canon, but that dialogue 🤌)

Not sure if there’s a thread for this already, but anybody have any webcomics or webtoons with size content (centring around the theme, or simply containing in some way)?

For clarity, this includes comics published online (legally and usually for free or for a small access/subscription fee). As an example, my personal go-tos are Webtoons, Tapas and Manta.

I was reminded recently after reading the latest episode of Lore Olympus by Rachel Smythe on Webtoons. This comic is a contemporary interpretation of the Greek gods and mythology, with a focus on the relationship between Hades and Persephone (with a non-r*pe take). A fantastic comic in general and I highly recommend it for the story, humour and art, but an added bonus is the occasional size content. This usually comes in portrayals of the titans as being many times larger than the gods, who are assumed to be human-sized (with some being able to “grow to titan size” if they are powerful enough).

Another comic of note is The Falcon Princess on Tapas. A story about a princess whose consciousness is mysteriously transferred into the body of a small messenger bird. No one else knows, including the handsome captain of the guard who looks after her. For the first half of the comic she is portrayed as a bird, or as a human in flashbacks. But there have been times her “human form” figuratively substitutes her “bird form” to represent her feelings about (and being in) a certain situation for the reader. Think, woman in birdcage type scenes.

I’m afraid I can’t share screenshots of said scenes, but LR is free to read and TFP has free episodes + “wait until free” type service (inconvenient at times, but Tapas has got lots of content to pass the time).

Anybody else have any suggestions?

This makes me wonder if Colliaz wasn’t, in fact, a victim of DA’s notorious practice of deleting size kink accounts without warning.

Same. Not going to try to psychologise, but they weren’t in a good headspace, poor thing.

Does “Deactivated” means the same thing as “Deleted”, on Deviantart? Fuck if she’s been taken down we ALL could.

I think, like social media accounts, DA doesn’t allow users to delete their accounts, but you can deactivate instead. Similar with submissions: I tried to do the same with my old account some time ago and they made it VERY hard for me to delete my own art - I had to opt for “archiving” or something that essentially made it unavailable for viewing by anybody (regardless of whether they saved it in their favs or had a link to it). It still remain on DA’s servers though, I guess. Likely something in the fineprint under and ownership clause, etc. It did the job, but I was/am still miffed about it.

it’s one of the things that disappointed me about the movies…the robots weren’t as big as they were in the 90s cartoon

Okay he’s not a “giant” in the sense we think of, but he’s still freaking SEVEN FOOT TWO (218 cm!)

But what if - and hear me out -

@Nyx said:

I’ve bought so many books and other media based on the fact that they appeared to be giant-related.

@Olo said:

Comic books are the worst in this regard. Size differential has such an immediate and universal symbolic meaning.

Aren’t they just? Like there was absolutely no chance that Reacher would have any sizey stuff happening (just posted as a bit of fun), but it’s much harder to tell with fantasy, sci-fi and horror media in general. I appreciate the imagery, but my little heart and my bank account can only take so much disappointment

Speaking of comics: here’s a few choice pages from a JLA comic someone from CF kindly posted a while ago. When I first saw the cover, I thought “oh, this must be symbolic.”

It wasn’t.

I like to revisit this one when I’m looking for “giant superheroes causing accidental chaos in a city” inspiration :3

@nyx I remember this story! And still a great read. So many lines that are just thank you for posting

@FairyFanatic thank you! I’ll happily share if I create anymore, writing or drawing

I’m fortunate to have one of my best friends being into size stuff and we constantly share scenarios, ideas, creative projects etc. Very, very few of my friends know otherwise, and those I’ve told years ago have probably forgotten (or I like to believe that they think I’ve moved on from it all - that’s what I tell them anyway).

My ex knows, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s used it to paint me as some weirdo to mutuals, including to others in our profession - bit of a concern when the national field is rather small - but what can you do?

I shared recently with my current partner: aside from him just being amazing anyway, I was spared a lot of additional embarassment with a simple acknowledgement and some general follow-up questions. Not in an apathetic way either, he could tell I was sharing something really personal and was already uncomfortable. It makes me giddy when he reminds me that I (5’3") am small compared to him (6’2")

Like a worm.

An appropriate question to ask is: would he love you if you were a worm?

Thanks for posting this, @littlest-lily ! I’m very excited to see where it heads lovely, engaging writing. Just chef kiss

Ugh I love noses so much. They’re so handsome.

Noses are lovely ️ boops, little kisses on the tip and nuzzles along the bridge are some of my favourite interactions. It’s a very intimate spot

So the God of War franchise is no stranger to titan sized beings with the Greek Titans making plenty of appearances pre-PS4, and Norse Giants/Joten (who are not always literal giants) playing a key role in our protagonists’ story in the more recent Next Gen versions.

Sadly, there’s not much in terms of M/f content, with one brief scene I remember in GoW2 with Rhea and Kronos at 0:50 :

Another is the interactions between Pandora and Hephaestus in GoW3, the story of her creation here at 1:40 :

But one part I think of note is from the more recent GoW Ragnarok involves Atreus entering the home of the giantess, Gryla, to save some animals. I realise the scene below focusses primarily on Atreus, a teenage boy, but he is accompanied by Angrboda, who is also the granddaughter of Gryla. Also, there are some nice perspective/comparative shots of them against features of a giant’s home, kitchenware and Gryla herself. I guess this could be for the exploration fans!

This part of the story itself is quite sad (but what part of the game isn’t?) with themes of abandonment, loss and the toll grief can take on family.

Scale is maybe 1:6 ?

Along with today’s chapter I also wanted to give the head’s up that I’m having a medical procedure tomorrow. It shouldn’t cause any kind of hiatus (because that would be terrible timing with how things are going in the story), but if I end up going quiet for a few days then that’s why

Good luck and speedy recovery! ️

She’s of course experiencing both fear and eagerness, which is why the heart on the floor is divided.

The best kind of uppies ️

Just watched the trailer and it looks super cute! Didn’t think it would be a comedy either so that’s a plus
