Bless your beautiful soul, this is beyond helpful for me! I have a female character that is so difficult to draw because she's short and a mixture between the average/athletic build, and this has been so helpful!

Yep! I'm specialized in female bodybuilders drawings and fat women are more difficult to do, so your tuto is useful for me

Love that every body type is featured and not made into a joke. Realistic and refreshing.

Even though I'm not a 'true' artist, its interesting to see this, and see how, with some of the products I use, people who have actually paid attention to body shapes and when they put work into creating the 'morphs' I use for some of my Poser models, as I can recognize nearly all of these as such for one model or another (aside from the 'little' body shape. I can change height and such, but to be frank and use a unkind word, there is no specific morph for the Dwarf body type [although plenty for 'Lord of the Rings type Dwarves" for some strange reason

No form of art is false!
Yeah, that was part of my reasoning for creating this chart, there are certain very specific bodytypes that are rarely covered and are often presented wrong, and I jumped on the opportunity to offer any info I could about them!

Bee Movie, a film so magnificent that I'm not bothered in the slightest that you spammed me with a huge chunk of its script.
Bravo my friend.
