Fat man body/shape?

Anyone seen a good fat man body/shape? I've been fooling around with the "appearance" menus and the default body/shapes, and when you try to make a really big guy, it somehow doesn't come out very well. Also, it's difficult to position the penis -- it seems to want to go on the navel.

I believe Lemon has some 'non-standard' (ie, Ken & Barbie) human shapes.

Not sure about shapes -- I'd never buy one, just out of sheer determination to get the sliders right myself.

If you're liberal-minded, look up some gay clubs or contact some "bears." I've seen some fantastically realistic body shapes within those communities. Most of these guys understand that setting all the sliders to 0 and 100 make the male shape look like ridiculous alien creatures.

As far as positioning your optional appendage -- you should be able to edit exactly its position and angle, just like a necklace or a shoe. Body shape makes no difference at all.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Actually, I've now figured out how to position the organ so it looks right. The problem now seems to be that when "in action," it seems to be positioned too low ... everything misses, in other words!

Looking good is more than just shape. You need a fatman skin, too. For example, all those stud muffins with the washboard abs...the abs are painted on (easier than situps).

Put a athletic, muscular skin on a fat shape and you will end up with beautiful muscles stretched out across your gross, sagging belly.

Try a skin with no muscles. Maybe a female skin (no offence, really) would work. no six-pack, and fatman has man-breasts anyway.

Check out the pregnacy clinics. They may be able to help out)

On the skin side -

Im not sure that would work

Most female skins have defined Abs as well and nearly ALL have makeup.

And of course a man with breasts due to his excess body fat does not have the sexually mature nipples of a woman.

On the shape side-

You can do an actual Beer/Pot Belly with Second Life the belly curve starts lower that it should so it doesnt look right.

So I think you could do a bottom heavy overweight Man shape.

But trying to do Joe "too many six packs" with a big over the belt gut and no butt, I dont think you could.

You cant do a proper pot belly on a woman either, but since more plump women are bottom heavy/ pear shaped - its easier to get a realisitic effect.

Maybe he should check one of those pregnancy kits for clues on how to get a rounded tumtum =)

Yeah, I've noticed that increasing the belly creates the look of an A/C unit strapped to the gut!



Just to be clear ... I'm not a "he." I'm just fooling around with options!

You're in the majority. I know LOTS of people who have avatars or alt avatars who are the opposite sex to their RL sex.

Oops, it was the "fat-man" references that threw me, sorry ^_^ I'm all for being whatever you want to be.

My RL 'agent' experimented with a fat man shape (mercifully not with me as I'm happy with the body I have!). Apparently the main problem for a fat man shape is that the upper belly doesn't grow suffiently big in comparison to the lower belly. The other problem is that if the hips are too wide, the hands disappear into them. I'm told there is a 'fat kit' which sets the arms outwards a bit, like on a real fat person.

yeah, THAT and the mention of needing help adjusting the "attachment"
