However, Riri (when she's not in such an outfit), the main character, has quite a noticeable pair of hips that are rather large compared to the rest of her body.
In Assault Lily Bouquet, many of the characters qualify, but a lot of them have maid-like outfits otherwise, so it's not noticeable at first glance. The end result should be an exaggerated pear shaped figure. Regardless of the width of the character's waist and hips it's important that her waist look exaggeratedly small relative to her hips. This animated woman will usually have a small bustline, a very narrow waist, narrow shoulders and very wide hips often accompanied by large buttocks. Or maybe it's a deliberate stylistic decision: not all adult women have large breasts after all.Įither way, if you aren't using big breasts, how do you make your older character look female? Narrow her waist, shoulders and enlarge her hips. Often this isnt possible because large breasts and an hourglass figure aren't considered to be family-oriented and this cartoon is in the Animation Age Ghetto, where big breasts can't get past Network Standards and Practices. But the cartoonist won't be giving this character big or even medium-sized breasts. For whatever reason, the designer wants her to look more *ahem* "mature" than the average female in this work. The character designer for a particularly stylized cartoon is drawing a woman.
