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 sexualized out of context, often in ridiculous, impossible or disturbing ways that sacrifice storytelling.

Found a post you might find interesting. It’s from Steven E Gordon’s blog, who was one of the main minds behind X-Men Evolution. Basically it’s him writing about his work on making the character’s look unique and varying face and body types.

I think one reason I really liked X-Men Evo was for that reason.

Very interesting. :)  It’s nice to see an artist try to differentiate their female characters to be more than just different hair colors.
