Are any of the Fat Girls modeled after real people?
For the most part, no. Most of the Girls came about because I was inspired by something else. For instance, Wanda came about when I was making an ATC (Artist Trading Card) for a “Women with Wings” swap. I just kept picturing this sweet, innocent, and almost naive lady misunderstanding the whole “wings” concept and showing up with a bucket of chicken. So when I do a card for Wanda, there is a sweet and innocent quality to it. Each Fat Girl has a different personality and I think each represents the different facets of us all.
