The human body is wrong

Rick Stirling

No, it's not.

But if anyone modelled or posed a character like this, they'd be told it looked wrong

What's wrong with it? I think it's just the angle that makes it look strange?
That guy is pretty ripped, though. You can clearly see where his pec connects to his ribcage.

oh for a second I thought some milkshape user finally figured out normalmapping

Hmm - the link has gone again. I'll edit the first post.

The pose is pretty extreme, and the guy must have less fat on him than I have on my left nut. His left arm looks like it's shearing at the elbow.

Well mostly it is because of the extreme movement he is in.
Normally a body couldn't be in that shape, but the human body is pretty flexible, and muscles react to outer forces too.

Damn I have more fat on my left big toe than that dude does on his whole body. But yeah i think it is mainly the pose and his use of his muscles that are making this look really dynamic.
