Going very slow, steady, and employing a multi-step drawing and digital editing process with my inflation art has been really enjoyable and helpful. And since my approach feels like it's from 2005, I'm staying in that realm and am now playing a bit of Capcom Versus SNK 2.

We all have moments planning, doing, and creating stuff, where things are moving forward... ...then you hit a wall, your progress stalls for a day, or unexpected life things happen. Or all three. This is me right now. A reminder that's it's part of the process, so you recalibrate and keep at it.

Some fun pneumatic pix from @svensvenson.bsky.social

“Time for Lift Off” Lose a session of writing to hardware issues, finish some art instead... This goes with my upcoming story featuring @panurgekink.bsky.social 's John & Jane. Jane wants to go on a balloon ride with John… admitting to him that her ultimate fantasy is being the balloon.

Sure, you have hourglass, apple, pear, petite bodies, etc. but you can't forget the air mattress body - big, full, wide, squeezable, and adjustable firmness... ... with two enormous heavenly pillows.

...huh. 2,000.

“Pressure (& Pleasure) Release” This is from a full sequence I made, my first creation, and it's a teaser... @panurgekink.bsky.social 's OCs John & Jane are a sweet couple that are also totally hot for inflation. I wrote a story about them. Helium is involved, LOTS of helium. Things get... big.

So, @beltpop.bsky.social posed a question about what might happen to big boobs when chewing a certain type of gum... This is my re-color & re-wording edit of their original piece, with one thing in mind: What if it asks the same question & shows scenarios involving air/lighter than air inflation?

Trying to use more references when I paint

Oh. My. Goodness. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! @moosetracks80085.bsky.social + @inflate123.bsky.social = absolutely incredible!

These sketches...wow. I mean, these poses and shapes are just peak! As a creator, there are definitely periods of ebb and flow, ups and downs. Just know @snowchanda.bsky.social, that even when you're not quite feeling it, *it* is still really good!

A really great milestone for a really great comic series!

I know people tend to prefer one or the other, but... does anyone also else go back & forth between 1) 'mega helium' inflation with super levels of lift... like say... huge face-obscuring boobs pulling skywards and 2) inflation w/ enormous amounts of 'classic' helium... like a giant parade blimp?

While having boobs inflated with helium and floating around the bedroom is definitely tingly fun, eventually you do have to come back down to terra firma. Using them like pillows seems like the most enjoyable way to everyone to stay grounded.

Awhile ago, @snowchanda.bsky.social did a sequence of Suki inflating a transformed Sera doll. So, what if Suki puffblew a shrunken down Sera like a big party balloon? Well, I made an edit inspired from the original. Shrinking & inflation is such a tingly combo! Thanks Snow for letting me share.

To those making live action BE/body inflation/growth projects: Don't automatically get rid of your unexpected reactions, your expressions/vocalizations of surprise, what you think are 'bloopers' or wasted takes from when it goes differently than planned. Those often end up the most powerful.

An inflatable Elastigirl comic from the mind of Gnome? Umm, very, VERY YES!

There's a lot of "Pixar Mom" kinky parody comics out there. None of them have the inflatable boobies. 'Cept "Elastigal: One Fight Stand." Finale posting Friday on Patreon and Welcome Change!

October is upon us, so it’s time for my second Blimptober! But things are going to be a bit different this year. EVERYONE can leave ONE WORD in the replies, which will be randomly selected every day as a prompt for me to draw! Let’s get creative! Let’s get BIG!

Yes.

Be sure to show your support to your favorite artists & authors who put in the work to white, draw, color, animate, & film ideas centered around the pneumatically enhanced & inflating. (You should support hard-working creators in general, but here I'm about ballooning boobs & inflating bodies.)

When this moment happens, good things are about to seriously go down... ...and float up.

@gnome-illustration.bsky.social shared a great piece of advice for creatives. I made a few little changes to that quote just for you inflation artists and authors out there! *hashtag inspiration* *hashtag helium* *hashtag ballooning bodies*

'Deus ex machina' is often criticized as being a lazy, convenient way to resolve issues in stories. 'Deus ex helium' on other hand, is perfect and should be used freely.

Happy Happy Pride Month!!! I'm thinking we have plenty of balloons to celebrate, too!

Here's the public release of the 5th episode. I just finished the 6th episode which is available early for my patrons on Patreon.

Helium tank with an infinity sign.

Short and sweet test animation with Ruth's new "blimpy" morph!

I write some big, balloony inflation stories. Here is a piece of mine from a previous Sventober, an inflation sketch & writing extravaganza put on by @svensvenson.bsky.social What happens when someone uses a voodoo weather balloon? www.deviantart.com/svensvenson/...

White noise ASMR is played out. I recommend 'light noise', a.k.a the sound of a helium tank valve being opened up.

Let's take a moment to recognize the great work of inflation OCs in science! Keep breaking barriers with helium and lighter than air gasses, researching new ballooning technology, and testing unstable expansive compounds on yourselves in the name of progress. 🤝

Shrinking and inflation together hits so hard. Add in helium, and it goes even harder!

My OC Alicia is definitely part of this special group. @gnome-illustration.bsky.social is absolute S-tier when it comes to drawing balloony and floaty!

Tautness is the hautness.

It's been two decades since I wrote a new Airy Tales story. This one's a musical. Yes, really. www.deviantart.com/inflate123/a... art by @moosetracks.bsky.social

Here is to a happy season for all. To the artists and writers: Keep writing & arting! Thank you for sharing your work! To the enthusiasts & enjoyers: Keep spreading that support for the creators! (Oh, and to the noble gas Helium & the inspiration you provide: Keep doing your thing!)

And, another Team Spare chapter comes to an end! I'll have the Chapter 6 Epilogue up later this week and will be taking a few weeks off to prep for the next chapter: www.deviantart.com/svensvenson/...

A day complete with eating way too much food and watching large helium-filled parade balloons. Seems like Thanksgiving is pretty much the unofficial 'official' holiday of expansion.

The trip is going, uh, well. I think. I can't really see from up here...

Another Sventober in the can! Thank-you everyone for watching and +faving!

Fans of the balloony & expansive need to read *all* of the ongoing comic 'Team Spare' by @svensvenson.bsky.social This series is immersive with a storyline full of depth, plenty of twists, rich world building, and the big floaty exploits that Sven does so well. www.deviantart.com/svensvenson/...

Seeing new art and stories being shared without all of the extra shitty platform implementations... It's a BIG thing. Well, these shares are already BIG in the expansion sense, so I guess it's double big! 😁 This is nice to see, I hope it will last for awhile.

*peeks in and looks around* "Hello? Anybody here?" *hears what sounds like a big helium tank with a completely open valve* *looks up* "Oh right, there they all are." 🎈
