Daz must have the balls to create a paralyzed character with Michael 8.1. Is this for the Olympics or do you think a paralyzed person in a wheelchair is handsome and has an "Apollo" body? Instead of creating the PA's characters of "normal, somewhat ugly people, the kind you come across every day ...", they are based on that concept of beauty of "young, with good tits, sexy, full lips , abdomen of barbecue table, and tight ass. ". It's all very funny. 😀
There is nothing wrong with them making a wheel chair prop/poses ect.. , but I do agree that they seem to always make beautiful prefect people they really need to start making more imperfect models.
Maybe, I explain myself wrong. English is not my native language, although I know it. (I am better in French, I have 6 years of studies ...) I am not referring to "a Paralympian", but to the image of "beauty" that Daz or other creators of Renderosity, Renderotica, etc ... I think Great that there is a significant change in "the human being": We are not all "showroomdumies." but I find it shocking for the everlasting aesthetic of Daz and his surroundings. Have they received a grant? (They are questions without answers ...)
Or maybe, in Renderotica they are going to do wheelchair positions? Think a bit. LOLThe reason why majority of the figures sold are 99% gorgeous models is because they would sell a lot more. But I agree, some variety is welcome.
@ace94, Of course, I agree also your opinion!.
There are about 7000000 people in the world. (And I, I have a little belly, not baldness but some gray hair, and I go for a walk- the little that the covid leaves me ...-, and I see people who are not super-models. They are like you, like me. .not taken from magazines. I think that the effort of the creators of characters should be based more on the reality, not on the idealized. That is my point of view.Hence my irony, @legolas18. For not understanding the game. (With all due respect to physically / intellectually disabled people, of course!) My neighbor has Down syndrome, and she is lovely. I mean, perhaps, the darkest part of a manipulative business. (Don't pay too much attention to me, that with this covid, you lose your mind already ..) So very confusing all....
I agree 100 percent that there should be more representation in what is offered and how it is offered and what people look like. But the honest truth is sex sells. It always has and always will. I am not saying that I agree with it, but I take that as to mean that as people who use these products we have the opportunity to change the narrative when we choose to buy, changing the way these people are presented and how they look. Just because they look like that when you get them, doesn't mean they have to stay like that, to me it's a base of what can lie underneath. If you want Michael to look like a supermodel college student who happens to be in a wheel chair, then that is completely up to you or you can change him around and change his story. I don't know, there is always room for change. The male characters especially as the women ALWAYS out number the men with literally everything that comes out.
Don't pay much attention to me. The concept of cultural perceptions seems the same to me, but perhaps, after objectifying a male (as well as a female ..), as "people of action (Cyberpunk, warriors, soldiers, etc ..)" is taken as an example of personal improvement to a physically disabled person who does sports. New heroes - epic ... ?- in this time of great need? An ethic that I do not share: Hence my comment.
