TOPIC | Less sexualized familiars
1 2 ... 19 20 21 22 23 ... 26 27
I am just going to say this is the first time I've seen mermaids with weird and out of place crotches. The centaur ladies would look pretty ******, if not for the eye rolling boob plates that are the bane to the fantasy genre. It wouldn't be so bad if 99% of the time females are wearing armor it is always boob plates.

So I am going to say I support this.

@Mireu

Boob plate refers to metal plate armor. Her armor looks very much leather (the groves and layers on it, as well as how much it forms to her body) make it very very leather-like. Judging by that the little dip people seem to be complaining about is entirely for comfort, since it wouldn't hurt her anyway.


EDIT: And the fact that the belt and harness for the arrows is the same color as the armor, makes it a lot more obvious that it's leather.

My problem with "boob plates" has nothing to do with sexualization, but with the fact that theyre not only impractical, but that they would be completely counter to the purpose of armor in the first place. The meren, i dont feel is sexualized at all. Boobs exist, that's life. Women have them. It's not being sexualized just because theyre not covered entirely. And at least they aren't covered by metal armor waiting to impale them in battle.

I see absolutely nothing sexual about those familiars. No support.

i think this whole thing has been blow out of context like i see nothing wrong with the art i feel for people who took time draw that stuff for us and i think that it is disrespectful to artist to complain about their art work when half of probably can't draw and other half can and you all are over thinking this making it something bigger then it is and needs to stop all this fight like no need for it.

can't we just enjoy the art for what it is not how it look too sexy
or whatever rest of think it is."]]]]

There's a difference because it's earlier styles from the artists who draw for the site compared to their improvement.

No support, the artists for the site have improved in their skill, nothing is sexualized or offensive.
