I'll never understand why so many comic artists insist on giving characters gigantic boots.

It's like everyone's fighting in ugg boots.

Edit: I don't know why finding an image of Rufus was so goddamn hard, but here's what I mean:

Comics are full of people with this poo poo on their feet.

There was one guy in the original Awkward, Ugly and Gross thread who would constantly lose his poo poo over people using the abbreviation "AUG" to the point of getting huge probations on it, too.

It wouldn't surprise me if half the userbase on SA is over 30.

I had to type in code from a book to get anything to happen on my first computer, Spectrum 48K

God, I remember skipping class, heading into the city and buying those code books just so I could spend loving hours typing a game, line by line, into the computer only to find that I'd hosed up somewhere and put a ";" instead of a ":" or maybe an "I" instead of a "l".

A friend of mine this last weekend at Wizard World:

That is an absolutely incredibly costume.

But, the legs just seem out of place. I know the in-game model has black leggings, too, but on a person with real human proportions, they're a lot more obvious.

Patattack posted:

I've never played the game, but now that you've pointed it out, it does look a little jarring. I think this might be one of those cases where the extremely faithful recreation of the original costume could have done with some real-world embellishment, like finding some kind of heavily-textured black fabric with a more rustic/medieval look to it...a really thick weave linen or black burlap or something.

It's difficult because the model doesn't have regular human proportions.

He's not fat, he just wear far armour and you can see how short his ~~things~~ thighs are. You're right that burlap dyed black would probably be a great idea because, although a smooth fabric is more authentic, it looks like he's wearing tracksuit pants.

And for a costume that looks that good, you really want to go that little bit extra distance to make it work in the real world.

EDIT: thighs, not things :ughh:
