These are called fantasy miniatures after all... and if that's Cyril's perfect fantasy girl, then let him share that

Sorry, didn't mean to honestly sound that upset or mad.

If that's Cyril's thing, then great. If folks like it, cool -- buy it.

But someone mentioned offering opinions, and I gave mine. I didn't mean to hurt any feelings, and almost didn't chime in because I was scared I would upset someone. (Its sort of scary being one of only 3 girls here ... makes commenting on female minis tricky...)

@corvus - I don't think she wasn't polite or fair - she gave her opinion, for which we asked.

@skrit - this explains it a bit

@ladyeyes - i can see no problem. i was interested in this opinion and i appreciate it a lot. without such opinons and with only "aah-s" and "ooh-s" the forum would be pretty boring...

as long as the opinions remain polite and aren't offensive , i can see nothing wrong with them.

If it really is this way - something's wrong about this forum

@LadyEyes: Don't sweat, it's your honest opinion and we like that! @Mahon: On miniature forums there will always be less girls then men, there's nothing wrong with this forum! Besides it's still a youngling, we'll see how many girls we'll have in a years time!

I didn't mean the number of girls, just the fact that if they are here at all they shouldn't feel bad about it

We should appreciate the fact they want to spend their time in this place dominated by men...

@mahon - Its nothing particular about this board. Honest! Its just a general thing I've run across. I've often been shouted down or discounted for commenting on female minis because I'm a girl. Its hard in a text-only medium to have things come across correctly without someone thinking I'm an angry man-hater or something....

but we want this forum to be friendly for everyone.

and here girls can say they prefer minis with bare male buttocks, while they don't like naket boobs,
and boys can appreciate sexy chicks and laugh at muscular barbarians ....

as long as we respect each other, everything should be ok

@Mahon: Oh, you meant that. I also agree on that one! (I do hope we get more chicks here though!

)

@ LadyEyes: Manhater!

love cyril work but who doesnt?

The SF girl is awesome yet the hair looks like clothing but i gess thats some kind of manga style the body is lovely maybe unatural as LadyEyes said so but it looks SO good ( if we look at all GW stuff they are all unatural but also look great... well some do

) wen minis get to these scale its hard to keep up the anatomie perfect because it probably would make them... boring?

Minis exagerate anatomic proportions to create visual appeal... only bigger scaled stuff can aim at more close to reality anatomie.

the second mini i think hips and legs and butt are skinny in a strange way theres something that didnt worked there, but that is only wen i put on my special rantglasses because overall its just another mindblowing Cyrill magic.

as for girl opinions on girls minis its all good especially wen they know what they are talking about. we man can only hope to learn from them. keep them coming you see stuff that we can't.
hey, who doesnt love stripper bodies?
