My husband pointed out something that I thought might be of interest.
So although I thought I was through with it, I'm posting yet another picture of my breasts. This one includes my head (featured: out of control hair, broken glasses and tea-teeth) and below my waist (featured: some bumps and folds).
If you still find me attractive after seeing this picture, you're probably in love with me. (Awww, I love you too!)
But in the fight between having to take a new picture or looking bad on the Internet, my laziness has once again won over my pride!
Laziness would rule the world if it could be bothered.
Anyway! onto my point. I doubt anyone who wants to draw breasts would have a reason to make them different-sized. But I thought I should point out that just like pretty much everything we have two of, breasts aren't identical. Although you often can't notice a size difference just by looking at someone, take a look at what happens to my shirt's neckline:
It points to my right breast, which is bigger and heavier. Incidentally, most women have their LEFT breast bigger. I have read that it matches the proportion of right-handed men or something. I guess I'm meant for a left-handed guy.
Anyone left-handed around here?
I'm not as corageus as you for showing off mines, but, my Left Breast is bigger than my Right breast with a difference. But that doesn't compare with a case I seen on TV, about a Girl which pretty much didn't developed the Right breast: The Left one was normal sized, the right one was pretty much non-existant.

Psh. It's not that bad. Women are so picky. :rolleyes:

If I say it's really, really bad, you're pleasantly surprised when it's not. While if I say I'm gorgeous, when you see it you go "meh, she's not that good-looking".
Men who brag about how awesome they are only set other people to be disappointed when they actually do see them.
(On the other hand, if you keep complaining about how ugly you are you become annoying. I guess, as is often the case, the best is just to shut up).
A really cool idea, and I'm just throwing it out there as an innovative new conceptis to just say what you're actually thinking instead of playing some form of social gymnastics with the words you choose. =P
Granted, this idea is completely untested and it could be inherently flawed, but it's definitely something to ponder.
Ahaha, I did say what I was actually thinking xD
I saw the picture and I was like "hey, my teeth look yellow", and then I wanted to joke about it. Plus I've been wanting to joke about my haircut for a while. It's a weird haircut. You can't actually see it very well on that picture though.
I don't know, I just have been showing pictures with just my breasts but I got sick of that, and I thought, great, the first picture where people see my face is this one...
But as I said, I didn't care enough to take another one, so...
I think I'll go take a better picture of my haircut though.
Urgh... that's sad. I mean, I don't expect fiction (and anime in particular) to reflect life in general, but breasts really are sometimes "just there". Large breasts shouldn't scream "promiscuous" or "unintelligent" any more than being brunette should scream "shy" or wearing glasses should scream "nerd". I understand that you're talking about other characters' reactions to boobs, rather than the traits of the characters who own the boobs, but still.
As a case in point, I'm blonde, have breasts, laugh loudly and frequently, and in general probably come across as a complete ditz. But in our pub quiz tonight (which we won, woo yeah!), it was me answering all the science-y questions (the periodic table, parts of the brain, Keppler's laws of planetary motion) while it was the older guys answering the pop culture / Heat magazine questions (what did such-and-such name their baby etc).
Screw stereoptypes.
Hmm. See, the problem with that is the point of character design, especially when we're talking about over-the-top anime shows, is to exaggerate and have a visual look that can tell you the personality of the character just by looking at him or her. Yes, in real life, people can't choose their bodies, but when doing character design, you kind of have to stereotype a LITTLE, at least if you're going for broad appeal.
That said, I think SecretFawful maybe didn't explain his point well enough or something because, frankly, a lot of anime girls have large breasts regardless of their personality, haha. Here's a few examples of busty anime girls that aren't sluts or klutz:
Tsunade from Naruto
Yuuko from XXX Holic
Yoko from Gurren Lagann
I could come up with more examples, but I'm pretty tired, and I kinda don't want to make myself look even more weeaboo than I already look.
Well, being a stalker gets people mad at you and the police chases you.
Showing your boobs gets people to like you and pay you.
Being Boobgirl pays more. Both in actual money and in side benefits. Hands down.
Obviously you have to consolidate the benefits of both roles. After all, your secret is out and honestly the disguise was rather poor. I mean, seriously? Avistew as Boobgirl? Nobody is going to be shocked here.
But if you're a stalker AND Boobgirl at the same time, well, police have trouble steadying their weapon if they only have the use of one hand.
I can't think of any more pictures to take. I even took a picture when I'm making crazy faces while showing of my weirdly shaped fingers. I'm out of ideas.

First of all, you shouldn't be bearing the weight of this challenge on your own. But hey, if you MUST...
I WILL BE CREEPY NOW AND SPEND FIVE SECONDS COMING UP WITH AN IDEA.
I don't think you've covered action shots, the affect of the body's momentum on the movement of the chest, for example.
This is by far the longest running General Chat thread ever. That makes me sad, the only non-Monkey Island topic interesting enough to people to continue this long is "boobs".

Aw, don't hate on the boobs thread. This has actually been quite a varied and interesting discussion about some diverse topics, returning every now and again to the subject of breasts. It's like an online version of every pub conversation there's ever been anywhere.
Right now we've decided to just reshoot it right. But I want to export some bloopers, so I cut them in Avidemux and tried saving the video, but the sound goes "Pbjfsbgure" for a second then nothing.
Methinks I didn't export sound properly. Works inside of Avidemux though. Mmh...

Hee hee... boobs...

Checkmate! I've sunk your battleship! Yahtzee! Bingo!
(I wasn't saying it was my motivation. Just saying, at least this way you're happily disappointed, as the Swiss say).
Cross-eyed...
Geezer!

You thought wrong, Guru... You thought painfully wrong.
Well this thread is 50% more awkward then the last time I posted! What a fun forum.
Also, RD, that video was scary, although funny.
You know-
If you were to add some glasses to that pic-
Hmm.
My secret identity of Boobgirl has been revealed!
Times are tough so I took a second job as Stalker Girl. Fortunately they're rather easy to conciliate.
Well being a stalker does pay better. Not that I would know or anything... It's just a guess...

[pedantry]It's "effect".[/pedantry]
There is one action shot, although you don't really see anything. For movement, videos would be best though, I think.
It's unfortunate, but I don't have a video camera. Sorry!
We'll buy you one! Where can we deliver it?

For you, Avi, I'm sure most would be willing to tilt their heads.
teehee
