Escher Girls

Float like a butterfly, Sting like a WTF!?

This is a blog to archive and showcase the prevalence of certain ways women are depicted in illustrated pop media, specifically how women are posed, drawn, distorted, and/or sexualized out of context, often in ridiculous, impossible or disturbing ways that sacrifice storytelling.

Lady Nilstria submitted: Yet another example of people trying to draw something in perspective, destroying the human body, and failing in every way. Past the obvious anatomical issues, I had the most trouble figuring out what she’s supposed to be running on. The perspective is that bad. Yeah, you can run on walls. A little. Not like that. Also, if you’re being shot at…and you have a huge gun…and enough time to smile up at the camera WHY AREN’T YOU SHOOTING ANYONE. What’s the purpose here? It makes no sense! I think she was meant to be running on the wall like Trinity in The Matrix.  Thanks for providing the reverse angle of her pose by the way, that’s… frightening. I like that she’s firing the gun in your redraw.
