This is one of the earliest pieces of 'fat furry' fan art I can recall drawing. At the time, 'Tolstoy' (a.k.a. 'Fatbear') drew his 'fursona' in a mildly portly form (and without those two little white markings on the sides of his head he is known for today). And he generally got that way from eating lots of fish (instead of other food stuffs, as well as other living creatures - like any 'vore' would).

So back in the year 2000, when I saw a particular T-shirt worn by a fisherman (in RL), I'd figured that a bear like 'Tolstoy' ought to be able to wear it, too. Unfortunately, even the largest XXXL-sized shirt wasn't big enough for him (and his ballooning belly), but he'd managed to get it on before it would eventually explode - after his next piscatorial repast! Enjoy!
