I can’t believe somebody looked at Jade Warriors and said “we need to do that but make the women look even more insectoid." I think the one in the back left is actually shedding her legs.

Genuinely baffled by this ad I saw on picrew because besides the anatomical impossibility of the pose she also appears to have two sets of boobs??? Please advise.
Um, my advice is to be very nice to the four boobed girl before she mutates further and buries our entire planet in cleavage. She’s boobthulhu.
This is terrifying in every way. And also all so she can both be so thin that she has no butt but also look like she has one at the same time. The ultimate in Escher technology.

TFW you kill another woman to take her place for a photoshoot but vastly underestimate how much larger your chest is than hers and also you didn’t fully hide her body so you have to awkwardly lean on her leg and hope nobody notices.
