Maniacpaint at least has the decency to make his ridiculously proportioned women look appealing. That one that blissy posted... her face and boobs both weird me out.

That being said, some of the boob-related animations are completely laughable. Breasts do not move like that; even when one is not wearing a bra. This is Boob Physics 101, people.

On another note, I wonder how they'll handle Maud coming back.

It's kind of like the reason I really liked dressing my Warcraft characters in skimpy outfits, but TERA's armor designs always make me roll my eyes. The skimpy stuff fits with Warcraft's cartoony aesthetic and lighthearted gamefeel, but TERA is trying to sell those designs while looking photorealistic, which just highlights how ridiculous the designs are, and how blatantly little the game thinks of its target audience.

@Wryte: Not to mention the Elin get armor designs just as absurd.

The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!

I still say it's a matter of proportion rather than size. Big or small can be fine, so long as the overall proportions are right. The problem with ginormous boobs is that they just stick a couple of watermelons on the front of a girl without regard for the fact that they don't have the body type for it.

^^ Are Elin the loli race? I never actually played TERA myself.

Speaking of underdressed underaged characters, I should be working on the next page of my comic right now, so I'll be off.

[up]That's not weird at all. tongue

Anyway, I'm going to bed. And tomorrow I'm going to be going to beach for a week, so I may or may not be around for a while. If I have internet I'll try to pop in to say hello, but I probably won't be in a whole lot. See you guys later.

Why can't women just be depcited realistically? Chainmail Bikinis are really stupid too. And it's also a double standard because you never see male heores going around in armored underwear.

Or a chainmail loincloth. Would make about as much sense.

I refer you to my first two screenshots, but yes.

Why stop at a loincloth? If you strip down to your birthday suit, you turn invisible!

Would you believe the original pulp magazines where the stories were first written for had even more contemptible covers? They were drawn by a painter turned sketch artist that somewhat squickily used her 19 year old daughter as a model base. Nothing too bad, but pretty lurid. Like Conan chopping a snake while it strangled a half-dressed maiden, a princess dressed in silks spattered with blood that only makes her dress tighter, and most famously a girl in undies dancing provocatively to sidestep a pit full of vipers and spiders.

Funnily enough, Robert E Howard was capable of making strong female characters that were badass in their own write when he got to write longer works he could put time into, but when he needed the cash he'd insert a fanservice scene from the cover beforehand to earn a bonus.

Unfortunately, bills don't pay themselves.

Does blood actually shrink clothing?

I imagine if the material was sheer enough it could make it cling, but it wouldn't actually shrink anything.

Not that.. I mean... I would know anything about that.
