webtoons proportions are crazy

Discussion

this webtoon is so amazing, but its getting more and more common that i see men’s proportions on webtoon be totally wack…like is he supposed to be that long?! and why is his head so small compared to the rest of his body!? tell me im not the only one noticing this lately🤣

Based on the angle of the buildings I'm GUESSING it's the artist trying to show perspective with the lower half being long and the head being small on top BUT the perspective gets messed because they still draw the face like you would see it straight on when in reality we should be seeing under both of their chins

This makes so much sense. I was picture the head done right and suddenly is doesn’t seem as disproportional.

NumerousBeginning504

ok this makes more sense😭

I was wondering what was wrong with it and then opened the full picture, I was not expecting that tiny head 😭

He's got what they would call a "slutty waist" and yuh 😭

I am liking the new era of both equal opportunity objectification AND honesty about it.

The aot started playing in my head when I saw the size of his head that’s kinda crazy. This is something I fail to understand. Whenever I see art with proportions that make no sense that are such and easy fix I don’t understand why they don’t fix them 😭

It's a difficult perspective that's not very attractive since you're shooting under eye level, which is less than flattering. I'm guessing the author wanted to keep the facial proportions the same so we aren't staring directly up his nose. Sometimes its hard to see if you don't practice different angles either and it's actually a nightmare to draw a person from below the chin without a reference 🥲

I feel like he's supposed to be closer to the "camera" but the legs kind of throw it off. I didn't read it like he was freakishly tall, but idk how he shows up in other panels

The artist doesn’t use 3d models or assets so I think it makes sense to look a little off with all that time crunch they have to do lol

I got totally used to those proportions thanks to bl and romance manhwa.

Tall man, broad shoulders and they look more buff with smaller head which gives the illusion of shoulders being broader. Also that triangle torso. Then smaller waist also to give the illusion. Big strong hands. Long legs to make them look taller. I'll stop now.

Daily artist struggles with perspective, I can feel the tears and pain of using the liquified tool, redrawing, sketching it out again, redrawing…I’ve been through this before of a weird angle that has 0 photo reference. 🗿 pure pain

How do y'all take screenshots? 😭 Genuinely curious. I understand if it's forbidden information though

Pufferfishgrimm

On the app you can press the three little dots on top and it will offer a screenshot option

Creative-Discount353

I have somehow never seen those three little dots in my 6+ years of reading

Someone told me the other day because I was crying that I couldn't save a picture of Gabriel lounging by the pool. Faith is restored and he is now my wallpaper (Chapter 9 Mafia nanny)

They hide when you're scrolling, just tap on the screen and they will show up.

We can’t take screen shots anymore??? Usually I just screenshot with my phone’s screen shot function

Creative-Discount353

My phone can't. it says that I'm not allowed to

ineedaglowup2021

He got more slim , man was a truck in episode one

DesignerRise5333

You're telling me now that men in the real world don't look like that.

Real_Ad_3916

It’s giving 1990’s Yaoi proportions (from what I’ve seen from memes😭)

Like I get that they wanna make their chest and shoulders look fucking massive but at the end of the day it just gives the poor guy a pin head 💀💀
