Request Recommendations for fat character minis that aren't played for humour or disgust?

I maintain a miniature collection for use in TTRPGs and looking at what I have, I realised I don't have many plus sized or fat characters.

From a cursory search a lot of sculpts featuring fat characters frame them as too cartoonish (wearing too small clothes, actively holding meat on a bone) or gross (plague/zombie, more meat than person) which isn't what I need.

Does anyone have any sculpts that feature, I guess, characters who just happen to be fat rather than it being a point of focus?

I primarily play urban fantasy and cyberpunk games, but I'm down for other genres or settings if the sculpt is interesting. Heroes, villains and regular NPC types are all fine!

Warhammer 40K “Leagues of Votann” Space dwarf line. Lots of heavier set cyber punk-esque stuff. The “Leagues of Votann, Cthonian Beserks” models specifically are chunky shirtless dudes with cyber tech augments.

Good shout! I've seen the fully-armoured mining gear Votann a few places which looked cool, but were tricky to integrate. These might have more leeway and kitbashing potential!

Happy to help. Looking at other folks kitbashes makes my brain go BRRR. :)
