[WIP] Woman.

[Fenne]

Hi
I'm working on a walking woman lately..
I've also posted it on PJ, and I've got some comments that it looks more a man then a woman..
That was on this piece;

(You may comment on the shading as well )

After that I changed it into this;

But is that any better or not at all?

I really need some help I think
Edits are also very welcome

Try bringing the left side of the torso in a little or move the hips to the left to make the hip stand out some more.
It also looks like the right shoulder should connect to the neck at a lower point. Also, the hair will help alot to make it more womanly I think so might wanna throw down some placeholder colors there for now.

Thanks alot, I'll try to fix it asap.

What you have is a good start, just a few things.
- game art is full of big tits, so you might aswell use that fact to make her breast slightly visible which will make it obvious shes a girl.
-thinner and more graceful limbs can be a trademark of the ladies, use this to your advantage.
- in your version her shoulders were quite broad and sturdy, make them a bit more curvy and graceful.
- smoother shading can also help in bringing femininity.
hope this helps.

That's terrible reasoning.

[Atnas]

I think he might have meant, "Game/comic art tends to exaggerate anatomy in various places, in turn helping the player/viewer to immediately recognize a character. Large boobs are a sign to the player/viewer that this character is a woman, and no one will question their gender."

I think having the breast show is a good idea. Nice soft curves will accentuate the femininity of the piece.

[Helm]

Since it was already mentioned, I guess I'll also state that that's terrible reasoning to put big boobs in there. The rest of Ryu's points are good and seconded, though.

[Atnas]

Looking at the pose, it would lead me to believe that the breast, uncovered or not, should be visible.

The size doesn't matter (unless the woman is extremely flat chested), as some tissue would show. When your arm is raised, your pectorals are stretched, thereby your breast would follow in the direction of the arm.

I think Ryu's breast is a bit too big, but only by a few pixels.

[Ryumaru]

If I was logical, I wouldnt be an artist ;p

[Fingerfoods]

I say yes to the breast. It doesn't even need to be uncovered; but you should be able to see, at least, a curve where the breast is.

nah, I dont think the pose leads in for a titty show at all :p she's clearly only showing her back.

I say you focus on the hind quarters instead  (<-love that guy, he seems so perverted) the pose already has a bit of leaning to a side, and you could exagerate the curves of folds you have, then lower them so that you have a real good sweep down to some luscious bottom

ok I feel dirty now

Her body would be angled because her arm is up like that. Try the pose and see which is more comfortable, a static front pose, or a dynamically turned torso.

You can tell she is slightly to one side because her spine goes a little to our left. Making breast showing perfectly acceptable.
Me thinks you just want to see less tit and more ass you dirty pig*bitchslap*

[Fenne]

Hmm
Okay, thanks alot

The prob is; exams are coming .. AAAAH
So, I don't have much time to work on this..
But, please, stay commenting this thing ^^ I can really use it ^^

(Sorry for bad english :p )

[Conzeit]

 
hahahaha. what, did you say ass? 

I think the issue about her balancing her weight could go eitherway honestly, it's true that if she's tilting her hips to a side she should compensate with her torso, but that does not necesarily mean her chest should turn the same direction her hips are.

Personally I honestly think that bringing a tit in there would sort of break the flow of the sprite. Since her posture already makes the butt stick out and on top of that the flowing robe also brings a lot more attention to it, it just becomes more natural for the piece to bring in the bootay

I'm surprised nobody else brought this up. Her hair is completely static... err.. still. It's not moving. The robe is blowing in the wind, but the hair ignores even the strongest gust.
