HOLY SH*T I HAVE FANART
A doodle sheet for this series!! (Specifically this fic!)
Hey, Smaller Bodies! <3
Writing dilemma! Working on Destroy-A-Toy's first installment. The problem is that it takes place in 1991 while the fic is meant to take place in 1995.
Smaller Bodies = 1991
Destroy-A-Toy = 1995
Yet the first DAT fic is in 1991. I'm considering making it a flashback, sharply jumping at the very end to a paragraph break with Dogday sighing and thinking back at how the chapter happened 'four years ago'. The only problem with THAT is there are two more fics planned that also deal with the repercussions of what happened in 1991.
Three first DAT fics:
YOU, UH... YOU'RE DIFFERENT
PAINTING SUNS!
BABY STEPS!
First one introduces a new character, the second one explains why Dogday's bandana has suns on it (since in the written works it's just been plain yellow) and the third one goes over KickinChicken's blindness. After these three "worldbuilding" fics, the ultimate 1995 plot begins.
This is a problem for me because it doesn't roll with the strict time jump... unless it's three consecutive flashbacks. Call me a writing nerd but that seems like a weak excuse to me. Maybe I'm nitpicking, feel free to call me out for being too particular with the way I write...
Would you guys mind if the first three fics touch base on the Sugar Breath aftermath?
I wish you could do more than one poll because I ALSO have to ask if you'd prefer this as a flashback or not.
Please comment/reply! Thank you! <3
SAAAAAND 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
so true queen
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Vee?? Wtf???
Uh, so I don't like Vee's canon design, mostly her palette. A green palette could work, sure, but her specific palette is not good. Primarily because the two shades of green are almost exactly the same value (which makes them blend together), but also because it makes her look much more like a computer than a TV. Besides the colours, it kind of bothers me that she (and many other toons) are basically completely naked.
So I wanted to take a shot at redesigning her.
Here, we have a red/blue/grey colour scheme. This just makes the most sense to me; when I think "movie" or "TV" those are the colours I think of. The red and blue are also supposed to mimic 3D glasses.
She's fully clothed, in a suit because what else would she wear. Gave her white gloves bc the light value draws attention to her hands and makes her gestures easier to understand. Her face and tail glow for the same reason. I'd have Vee's tail always showing, by the way. I do not want to know where she puts it in canon. Uh. Anyway, she has a belt chain too bc they're cool.
Will make a good drawing of this design at some point, but I'm feeling lazy tonight, so yeah.
Ok that's it byeee (I will go back to my regular stuff eventually, I promise, but feast well in the meantime)
P.S. Reblog if you wanna see my other toon redesign ideas >:)
OMG WAIT. What if for the AU, Shelly wasn’t the only one left behind, but Glisten was too??
ESPECIALLY because they were both torn in two
Hold up hold up hold up
I’m making it official
Glisten and Shelly are stranded together in Gardenview until the rest of the toons come back for them
If you have other ideas please comment or reblog them!! <3
Update: @yukitiramisu suggested Forgotten Friendship which is fucking FIRE
One might be the series name while the other is the one-shot name
Them.
New tumblr header. :)
(Spoilers for Smaller Bodies; no spoilers for Destroy-A-Toy)
For anyone new to the AU, this is Queen Catnap, Dogday, Ollie and Theodore. Here’s a brief description of each one.
Queen Kitty was the first Catnap. Autistic and transgender, she was built with a knockout gas tank in her lungs. Her anger towards PlayCo mounted and she attacked them. She was sent to be killed but instead built a cult following with the other “destroyed” toys.
Dogday is the Smiling Critters’ leader who loves routine and pushes the entire orphanage forward each day. He believes Kitty was killed - he doesn’t know about the cult - and mourns her everyday through prayer and reciting loving memories. He’d get rather a shock when he finds out the truth.
Ollie Playtime is the company’s Security and Comms head. They also control medical supplies, file management and company censorship. They were taken from home and experimented on at 14, and now at 18, they’re using the experimentation blackmail to climb the company’s ranks and gain power.
Theodore Grambell is a tiny child adopted with the sole purpose of experimentation. He never played with the other kids or smiled like they did. For someone so young, he feels lost, empty. He was never given a chance to grow up. He may be sentenced to death soon but for what little life he had, he’s doing to make sure he’s remembered.
They’re my four favourite Smaller Bodies/Destroy-A-Toy characters :)

Huge gracias to anyone following the AU. I’m so grateful to finally be confident enough to share my things <3
i shooted from da sky and hitted da ground in da farm fertiliser
Yeah so I also drew this
I can see them as besties :) specifically I have a thing where they were just coworkers (Glisten worked as Vee’s makeup artist) until he got very badly drunk last night and accidentally confessed his own self-hate to her, and ever since she sorta… adopted him
She’s got the grumpy aunt vibe
But like, the aunt who at Christmas buys you the best gifts ever
Here’s the version without the pride flags in case anyone’s parents get mad:
CRITTERCAKES CRITTERCAKES 💪💪💪
I made dogday and catnap charm cupcakes filed the dogday one though because I cannot get the triangle to stay
These are vanilla cupcakes that work for DogDay because his scent is vanilla
@qibsichan I hope you like them
