Female character sits with legs spread apart?
Re:
I think any of these 2 would be acceptable. And only change the front pose because it is the only one facing the player. The other sitting positions seem fine the way they were. The plus side is, only one image would need to be changed per wardrobe.

Re: Female character sits with legs spread apart?
I think that male and female characters should not be too differentiated. It would be annoying and old-fashioned in a bad way. We are not that different biologically. Most of what people think is different is all about culture, and does not need to be considered in a game like this.
Many of the suggested "feminine" positions are not really comfortable for anyone (just as "feminine" clothes are often not very comfortable, I suppose). So please, choose a sitting position that works for both genders.
I suspect that making the female characters very "feminine" is something that appeals mostly to male players, whereas it makes me, a female player, feel very uncomfortable. Any differences should be natural, such as the female characters having breasts, and the culturally biased differences should be kept to a minimum, in my opinion, especially since the cultural bias is often a sexist one.

Re: Female character sits with legs spread apart?
I agree wholeheartedly. Which is why I don't like the "look at my groin" sitting posture that is appealing to mostly male players. Don't know why they like it, but it is probably a culture thing.Vink wrote:I think that male and female characters should not be too differentiated.

On the other hand, I prefer this posture because it isn't anything stereotypical, and can be used for both male and female:
But until a general conscience and agreement is reached regarding which one to use officially, I couldn't really progress. Well, I can fix the shading and create the sprite for all sitting posture, but I believe the time can be used more wisely.

Well that one is the only one no one opposes, so I guess that is our choice?
This message used to be meaningful.

Okay. I have attempted one of the side view:
Version a: Version b:
Which one looks more natural? Or are they both terrible? Is the perspective correct?
If only I have a character model with movable joints, or a digital camera, it would make drawing poses so much easier.

Looks like one leg's in the air in profile, but both on the ground face on.Saphy wrote:Okay. I have attempted one of the side view:

To me it looks like the sprites right leg does not extend to being full flat to the ground like the front view. It could a little lower and longer.Shaggy wrote:Looks like one leg's in the air in profile, but both on the ground face on.Saphy wrote:Okay. I have attempted one of the side view:
