Your new character is actually really cute. I particularly love three things about her;
1: She's a wonderful, more wholesome depiction of a fuller-figured character, thus she's very different from most depictions of said character. (Anime's a poor place to look, at least in my experience. When their body isn't normal, for some reason the anime has to make the
rest of them look or act "not normal." Good on you for taking her seriously. ^~^ )
2: She's a lot stealthier than most people would give her credit for if she could sneak into the Agency without detection. Don't know why, but I like when an innocent looking character has an unexpectedly useful trait.
3: The hair! I just love how floofy her hairstyle is. <3

I am very glad you like her. I had fun collaborating with my friend on her design.
1. That was actually the point! I got so tired of how poorly fuller figured women got represented in not just anime, but here on deviantart as well. (Those inflation artists are insane, I tell ya!) I just wanted a more accurate and healthy depiction of them for once. She may not be a fighter, but she’s great emotional support for the protagonists and that makes her a hero in her own right.
2. I just really liked the idea of her being unexpectedly stealthy for someone her size. XD My friend who designed her appearance based on my description actually had the idea of her being able to teleport, but I decided against it because I just didn’t want her to have any powers.
3. Her hair has to be my favorite part of her to draw! It just accentuates her bubbly positivity and sunny personality perfectly. I bet it’s a nightmare to brush, though. XD

Y'know what character-design is also shamefully hard to see done cute, with care and feasible design, which I feel has a lot of overlap to larger-shapes women?
Slime-people. More often they're one of two extremes: too-human blue jelly-molds of moe anime girlies, or back to inflate-art. I tells ya the process of invention got lost somewhere and we got stuck in a rut on both of those. :/
It's hard to come across good content of either those kinds of people. So I made a cute one that's both. ^~^

I’m glad that both of us were able to work outside of that kind of mold that’s been set. Even with your character, although slime isn’t my thing, I still can appreciate the amount of creativity with her design that just works so well with your art style. You obviously put more thought into the design than just for the yucks.
I actually adopted a character a while back that has gelatin hair and I don’t know what to do with her. XD Should never let an impulse get the best of design and use.

Thanks. Your compliments to Melonette are quite appreciated. (Don't lemme forget this is a Ruby Cornelle post tho, and again she's totally cute.)
I'd like to see this gelatin-haired girl sometime, especially when and if you find a spot to put her in. Just the description is both intriguing and adorable. ^~^

No problem. ^^ and of course. XD I’m just happy for a discussion concerning character design.
Well I did buy her here on DA as an adopt from my sister. It’s right here, but I dunno what to do with her. eternal-apprentice.deviantart.…
