The pain and the horror! The horror!
My back hurts
My pride hurts
My copy of Poser hurts
My copy of Photoshop has asked to transfer to a better division.
Tonight, in the name of science, I tried to replicate scenes from comic books with the Poser 6 software.
Poser either wouldn't willing cripple the spine of the female character or couldn't breach the code to copy the pose. But it did answer an important question
Now I know why all those comic book female characters have enormous breasts. That's where their internal organs are kept.
To get the Poser figure to twist like that, I had to switch off the autobalance, the limits, and the kinetic limitations. In other words, shut down everything that Poser uses to try to maintain something like reality.
As a bonus, I tried to copy Jade's pose.
It's less painful, but still, anyone else reminded of the number 7 or the number 5 by these female poses?

When I grow up, I'm going to be a coroner. Then, one night, I'm going to cut up and contort a body such that all, yes, ALL, of the internal organs will be shift several inches UP. Once I've arrangegd them, with loving care, I shall draw the definitive work of Bodies Don't Work That Way!, in which I illustrate that, if the intestines were placed JUST SO around the rib cage, boobs DO work that way!
I kid. Clearly, the money is in doing that to LIVE bodies and selling my services to the highest bidder- you too can have a trophy wife that looks like your comics when you were in high school (and not getting any)!

Wow. I happen to be an extremely hourglass-shaped woman myself (big boobs, really big hips, relatively narrow waist), but the internal organs do have to go somewhere!
The ideal female waist-to-hip size, apparently is the waist at 80% of the hip size. Mine is just over 70%, and all my pants are loose at the waist. That art looks something like 20%. How do they stand up? Thanks for this service to art!
