Belly Rub Weekend Ad (full-colour)

I was honoured to be commissioned to create this ad for 2025's Belly Rub Weekend! The brief was "checking in" so I knew immediately I had to have a huge round bear and his muscle bf showing up for the big event. Since BRW is in Colorado this year, I tried to give a flavour of that location with the background - the mountains and building colours. I've also included the final ad with text (put together by commissioner Thiccgulp). Alas, I can't be at the event in person this year but if all goes to plan I should have some of my art displayed there, which is exciting!

Preview: USER, chapter 1 (text)

LOKITU'S NOTE: Ahoy, Titans! As I've done with my other stories, here is an early preview of my next wg story 'USER'. It charts an online chat between inexperienced Herb, a chubby, older, suited man who is keen to please, and BOSS-OF-U who is more than willing to 'guide' Herb in the right direction when it comes to his size. This is text-only right now, as I'm hard at work creating the illustrations ready to be published later in the year. I hope you enjoy this first read!

Fat For A Day, 2 (full-colour)

Oops! In this full-colour version of this commission it looks like the beefy bf has been startled into accidentally pressing the button on himself, and blowing UP. Not that his tubby partner minds... 2/2.

The Dad Next Door, part 7 - Finale - Bonus Sketches

This final chapter being the Finale, I had to draw one extra piece of art for it, and as you can see, the final drawing proved the most challenging. Positioning two big men in an embrace while giving them both the spotlight to the viewer is always difficult to get right, and it took me several tries.

Overall I'm very happy with how this story turned out, and I like to think my illustrations did it some justice. I pushed myself with these, going for the soft watercolour backgrounds to try and reflect the more romantic angle of the story. And I let years of feedback from you wonderful patrons help shape the narrative too, trying to incorporate things I think will resonate with the community (I know everyone has different tastes though).

It was a real pleasure to work on this, and to bring you all David and Jay's story.

Early look at a commission I've been working on, the conceit being that the remote control can make you fat (or fatter) for a day. Part 1 of 2.

A Feast for a Bear, 3: Colour Edition

This was a really fun scene to bring life to with colourisation. Part of Fat_Bear's original brief to me was for this sequence to be inspired by the classic cartoon 'Pigs is Pigs', so I tried to channel some of that into this part.

A Feast for a Bear, 1: Colour Edition

For this Colour Edition I've gone pretty far back into the Lokitu archives and found this commissioned sequence I made for Fat_Bear a few years back. The original black-and-white versions were always pretty popular so it was naturally something I knew I wanted to come back to at some point.

Professor Plumpyou (full-colour)

Here's the full-colour version of this University Professor giving some extracurricular attention to his student who's clearly very hungry!

The Dad Next Door, part 5 - Bonus Sketches

(You might want to read the chapter first before viewing this post)

It's been really fun drawing Jay slowly plump up around the middle alongside David in these illustrations! Occupational hazard of him being around such a hungry Dad all the time...
