Bayonetta's proportion are serious business
 
No, really... does this really matter to any of you guys?

I see this stuff splattered around at blogs and gaming sites all around... first was the Pallin thing, not her head is too small and her body too big. Now she is a giant, now she has too much hair...

I mean, for crying out loud it's a freaking videogame about a witch with Guns in her feet!

Just to sample... this is a comment from Kotaku.

The average human is 6th head lengths in height.

The average illustrated human is 8th head lengths in height. It's what people view as 'normal' for illustration.

Bayonetta is 11 head lengths in height.

At least do a little research
Here is the chart

And here is a Before and After Photoshop work of a guy who "Fixed" her. I'm not going to mark which is which, just so you can see if you can spot the difference.

They both have tiny heads.

the one on the right is thinner. considering the sort of people who do photoshop fixes of video game characters (mirrors edge being a prime example) Im guessing the right one is the photoshop.

You know, she WOULD be closer to the 8 heads high if her head wasn't so small. That is a bit obvious.

this is why people groan when they hear you are an art major

Yes, this stuff would bother me if I played that.

It's more that the body size vs. head size has been made closer to reality. The left one's head is not in proportion to the body at all, and the right one is closer to looking less tiny.


The more I look at these pictures, the more I hate how small her head is. Oh god.

Silly outfits make me laugh, though.
 
Eh, it doesn't bother me. I didn't expect realistic proportions and I don't care about them. I'm going into this thing because I'm expecting gorgeous 60fps DMC-esque fights with giant bosses while dual-wielding rocket launchers. So long as I get that I am groover than a box of flowers.

I'm sort of surprised they made her thinner but didn't actually try to increase the size of her boobs.

There could be a logical explanation for her small head, like she got hit by a curse or something and is now on a quest to make her small head normal size again.

Krylo 10-30-2009 10:15 AM

I don't think they made her thinner so much as decreased every aspect of her body that wasn't her head--which makes her look thinner.
