She’ll be based off the existing one:
Obviously she can't be identical because this ☝️ is the BIGGER BODIES Catnap. For starters, my girl has short, stubby legs, which that thing… uhh… does not.
In Sugar Breath, her description reads like this:
“A skeleton cat, its fur utterly shed, bones and scars and bruises jabbed all around its papery skin. The creature’s spine shoved out of its back in sharp ridges. Its mouth gaped wide, wider than possible. Human faces bubbled and boiled within its skin. A sharp, angular moon pendant glinted in the sickly light.”
The faces boiling in her skin comes from the original concept for Nightmare Catnap, here:
I personally much prefer this version and want to create something similar to it.
How she works in Smaller Bodies is that, when someone is inflicted with fear and under the affects of poppy gas, they watch her fur peel off and shed, revealing the bones beneath.
She would also keep her jewellery. Here’s a very rough sketch:
No cheek fluff
Exposed ribs
Extremely sharp spine that extends to the tip of the tail
Earrings have changed (everything’s sharper, the heart is upside-down, the stud is a skull)
Her gentle 🌙 is now more of a jagged ‘C’
Ears are sharper, less fluffy
Claws are very long
Keep in mind that this sketch was hammered out in 10 minutes so obviously it’s missing a lot of details and overall looks very odd.
Exposed poppy gas tank in belly
She’s showing up for the first time in Sugar Breath and I need her to be fabulous ✨
So these three are for my mates online @idiotsmart1 comic collie and Val

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
(Thank you @sparkdoesart and everyone who got me to 100 reblogs!!)

If you’ve never seen me before, hi! My name’s Qibs! I’m an AO3 author.
Here’s my series: the Smaller Bodies Initiative! “A cat with deadly knockout gas and a dog with seperation anxiety are imprisoned in an orphanage. The only thing keeping them sane is each other.”
May update this page. Lovely to be here. 💜
This looks bloody awesome!!!!
No one else but you.
Prepped and ready for the Toy Tour premiere!
Bestie’s new and improved token art!! Here’s how it holds up against the old one:
Difference: six months of studying and practice!
Improvements:
Clothing folds
BEYOND insane colour palette improvement
Shading/rendering for the colour layer, including tiny dots in the shadows for depth
Experimenting with gradients on the lineart layer
Better idea of shape and direction - feet clearly flow out, hair is obviously curly
Joints that are built-in instead of being drawn onto normal legs last-minute
PROPORTIONS. I'm not sure how, but for this one it's very obvious Ollie has a small(er lol) body, and it would be easy to mistake them as a kid while wearing kidcore.
Expressions/visual communication with personality
Trying to get them (Ollie) on a keychain. :3
Second chapter comes out today and features this art :)
I know she doesn’t have clothes (YET) but she does in this drawing!!
Hello! If it’s okay, can we see bigger bodies dogday and cartoon catnap? ( with legs on both of them )
Hold small cat like football….
