The Roundtable

Ahhh, the hippo. Majestic. Powerful. Tubby. Nature's Strongfats.

Y'all. I LOVE hippo characters. I cannot be normal about 'em. They're my furry art and fat art kryptonite.

And tomorrow's my birthday and I'm feeling self-indulgent, so with that in mind!...

Please feel free to flood this thread with lovely fat hippos for us all to enjoy! They can be your own OCs, they can be others' work (properly credited of course), they can be smallfats or hugefats or strongfats, they can be any gender expression, just gimme potamuses please!

First of all, Happy Birthday!! Hope you have as lovely a time as you can have.

Secondly, it's dawning on me that I have a lack of knowledge of good sharable fat-fur hippo stuff BUT I've been meaning to mess around with this VRChat avatar kit for a while (I *think* I've bought one a while back but if so, it was a while back) sooooo feel free to gaze at the overwhelming handsomeness of Eligecos' Hippo avatar~

EDIT: Oh yeah, here's the link for actually purchasing one of these, whelp! Should've remembered to include this before pressing "Submit" but here we go: https://ko-fi.com/s/4227e60c9f

Happy birthdaaaaay! I will indulge you and show off hippo Eli when I'm home from work.... I think I've already shown you but I think it's a cute form for me, I absolutely ADORE huge pachyderms!

Oh wwwwowwowowowoWOW Nell, that's a HANDSOME fella, I'm swooning!

And I'd love to see that, Hooves! <3 Thank you so much, high five for shared pachyderm love!

HIPPOS HIPPOS HIPPOS

Always happy to see more folks celebrating the glory of hippos~! And happy belated birthday!

I gotta pay homage to the two hippos who had the most influence on me and helped shape me into the hippo-like thing I am today...
First off, Gloria of course... How could I NOT get hippo-brainwashed by seeing her enormous ass on screen huh? Art by https://bsky.app/profile/afurreak.bsky.social And then, Bertha my beloved... Kazecat took what Gloria started and really HAMMERED it into my head with her, she's perfect. Probably also why I like singlets so much haha. Art of course by https://bsky.app/profile/kazecat.bsky.social Resulting in me! And I may as well share a fun piece from a ways back by https://bsky.app/profile/neetbean.bsky.social

Some truly excellent and classic examples! <3 Thank you so much for your contributions!

This just crossed my feed so I guess it’s yours now.

Powerful... I used to have a hippo sona form, but iunno, it never really clicked despite how cute it was.

The collection grows...many thanks! <3

Can't have a hippo appreciation thread without mentioning..... Him Flavio my beloved

Flavio and Gloria are inspired picks, those two are so cute....


My partner (and also one of the roundtable's very own members, beheh) Pas did this hippo form of my son's a while back that I still really love!

I've seen a lot of art of Hoppo from The Wuzzles. I imagine she turned a lot of 90s kids into hippo lovers ^v^

Also, while looking for this, I found this cute art of Princess Peach getting TF'd into a Mario creature ALSO called a hoppo

Oh Hoppo's a classic, yeah! Her voice is also, um, very nice. >///>

The Peach TF is fun too! And has me thinking about the joys of Elephant Peach/Daisy/others.
