finish female body proportions advice please!

hello, after finally finishing the hands, it's almost done.

i just need some final advice opinions on the proportions,

i can't decide on the arm length no matter how much i look at them, so i would really appreciate some other opinions advice to finalize this.

I think the arm length looks alright. If you rest the arms at her sides they should be about halfways between her knee and crotch. One thing I would reccomend is raising the top of her hips up a bit, they seem a bit low. Have a look at some nude references, should help you out.

thanks SCB. it's funny you mention looking at references, i stared long at hard at references for a long time, but the more i looked, the more i couldn't make up my mind.

it's a great help to have a second opinion, i can see now what you mean about the hips being too low down.

thanks!

Hey!
I think the arms must be longer and the lower body a little bit shorter.. I'm not quite good on anatomy but made a quick paintover.. Hope it helps!

If the arms are completely straight, the hand would cover the crotch.


I don't think the arms are long. The crotch is too low. It's her torso/mid section that's too long.

thanks guys

had a little play with it, made torso shorter, arms slightly longer.

it looks better i think, what do you think?

but now i am thinking the head looks a little too big? maybe scale it down a little?

..or is it that i should make the legs slightly longer..?

There are general proportion guidelines that a lot of people follow, but people come in all shapes and sizes. Unless you're modeling after someone specific in real life then you may get confused looking at different references of people who may be different ages/heights/etc.

Personally, I think your torso is still too long (specifically the mid section). I'd move the whole upper body + head/arms and move it down more which should make the wrists about even with the crotch if the arms were at her sides.

If I remember from your previous post, I thought the eye holes were a little on the large side. Other stuff is close enough. I'd move on and try to get the textures done. You can always come back and tweak stuff later. It's not ideal, but it's better than being stuck at this stage of endless small tweaks. Putting some kind of texture on there will help you see where other problems are more easily.
