Escher Girls

By LuckyFK from Deviant Art, who also created this.

Shown to me by redlined-art. :)

This one was apparently inspired by Escher Girls!

Poor elf girl though. :( She can’t catch a break.

(Also, thank you so much to everybody for your birthday wishes! :D )

I have no clue what’s going on. A game of Twister gone wrong? Maybe they’re playing “Guess which animal I’m trying to imitate?”

When she isn’t broken, Domino is actually rather flat-bottomed.

There’s nothing wrong with that, of course! But it does show that making women into snakes only gives the illusion of curves.

It might be simpler to simply draw them with curves, or forgo the curves altogether—either would result in a drawing of a woman, rather than a snake.

That’s something I’ve talked about on this blog in the past: that this happens because artists (or editors) don’t want a female character to be “fat” so they’re drawn with no butt, but they also want them to have curves, so there’s a bend in the spine for an illusion of a butt.

This is a Poser redraw of this Airboy cover, which I did mostly to get Valkyrie’s pose and costume sorted out. There’s no reason I can think of why someone sitting on the wing of a fighter would have their arms hidden behind their back, unless it’s to thrust her boobs out. So, a more natural pose.

Also, for forties-era posing, I don’t think a completely unbuttoned blouse (with no bra) fits the era. So a slightly risqué couple of buttons undone, instead. And no cape thingy, because capes and propellers work only slightly better than capes and jet engines (thank you, Edna Mode).

Now, I tried making some jodhpurs for V, but they didn’t come out that well. Even so, I don’t think there’s any confusion here about which leg is which. Also, retro hairstyle!

PS Sorry about the lo-res Mustang, it was the only free one I could find.

This is a picture from the Little Girls Are Better At Designing Superheroes Than You tumblr that my friend turned into a birthday card for me. :DDD

I thought it was really cool (both my friend making me a card, and that awesome drawing), so I wanted to share it and give another plug for that tumblr because it is awesome. :) (For those not familiar, it’s an art project where the artist, Alex Law, is redrawing photos of little girls in cosplay as superheroines.)

Also, because it’s my birthday I want to post something happy and awesome. :)

Elita One from the Transformers Legends game. (I do not remember her looking like THAT).

the-edude submitted:

Why would anyone do this to you Elita?

kryptoncat submitted:

Elita One as portrayed in the Mobage game Transformers Legends. Since she is a robot, the boobs and butt pose might actually be possible for her. And because she is the leader of an elite squadron of Autobots, she most likely would not assume a pose that would put her at a disadvantageous position. Perhaps she can teach this move to her male counterpart, Optimus Prime?

(On a less sarcastic note, the poses of the other female transformers in the game aren’t nearly as sexualized. It’s just really annoying that their leader gets… this.)

M.A. submitted:

…..Wow Hasbro, here I was under the impression that your weren’t going to drop to this level when it came to your ladybots. They even gave her underboobs even though her chest normally only looks like boxy or smooth armor plating. On the upside, since she isn’t human she may be able to twist that way without breaking her back? (grasping at straws) Also her right boob looks like it’s slipping away, though I’m not too sure. >_o

Robot boobs

As it would seem, not even Transformers are safe from the boobs and butt pose…even though robots with boobs are just ridiculous on it’s own. Whats even more tragic is how none of the other ‘female’ bots have a sexual pose, only Elita One.

Escherbot

Someone on my dash reblogged this earlier and, honestly, I had to double take. Apparently this design received considerable flak and was altered, the “revised” version is presented second.

Wow, this one exploded in mere hours in my inbox. And apparently it made fans annoyed enough that the art was changed. The second picture is the change.

What gets me about the original is that they specifically gave her human looking rounded underboob and butt cheeks just so they could put her in the boobs and butt pose (and coloured them so you couldn’t miss it). o_o It’s so blatant.

I was watching a review of Justice League Cry for Justice when I had to stop the video and document the random centaur.

This has been on the blog before, but it was a bit tiny since it was part of a larger page, and it was way back in the archives, so I’ll use this as a repost. :)

i don’t know if this has already been submitted, but it looks like borderline porn

My personal headcanon is that Avengelyne comics are about a hardworking porn star who also solves crimes. Right now she’s on the set of a shoot and just realized that her co-star was the one who stole the spatial-distortion device from the government.

Found this at a t-shirt booth in Sabakon today… I don’t know what this is from, or who the character is, but ouch.

Maybe she’s giving hints on how to fold laundry, by using herself as an example.

Very interesting and tragic - Jimquisition brings up the creepyness of game publishers

If you had missed it I think this is interesting: Jimquisition brings up the creepyness of the attitude towards female protagonists by the gaming industry higher-ups.

This was very interesting (barring the ending where I didn’t like his implication that any men turned off must be secretly gay themselves, or his sexual taunts at them). Especially the part about publishers specifically saying they didn’t want to put the heroine on the cover of the game, and that a developer was told that their heroine couldn’t have a straight relationship because it would turn off the straight male audience.
