      but she’s swinging a big sword. Do that for one day and you’ll feel it with muscles!

      Also, she has mad popeye arm going on…

          But her biceps on either arm look like they’d struggle to pick up groceries, let alone heavy weapons…

          Then why are her forearms largely OK? It’s her upper arms that are noodles, which is just more ridiculous.

          For as absolutely excellent as the rest of his art is, those proportions on those female arms is embarassing.

            I dont know, its a fantasy artwork, I don’t think we can make sense of something that inherently is not based on reality.

                I think it is important to note that while the two are often conflated, fantasy does not mean ideal or perfect. It only means something that is not reality.

                  Yea, but he’s representing realistic muscles everywhere except for her upper arms.

                  It’s uncanny and stupid even if those are the rules of the fucked up universe. I mean, I think he’s an excellent artist, but that just makes the discrepancy more hilarious.
