Fearless Leader: but we make note
Fearless Leader: of which way
Fearless Leader: muscles are laid out
Fearless Leader: use the round end of the leaf where you need mass
build up
Fearless Leader: like where the fore arm meet the inner elbow
Fearless Leader: that's a bunched up bunch of muscles there

Fearless Leader: ok
Fearless Leader: now
Fearless Leader: before we do the front
Fearless Leader: what is this, male or female and why?
frogger70301: female- wider hips?
teri56: female because of the narrow waist and wide hips
merrie60us: could be either at this point
Fearless Leader: female
Fearless Leader: because when we lay out leaf shapes on a female body
Fearless Leader: we need to add to the hips
Fearless Leader: not bulk up the back
Fearless Leader: have a waist to hip and breast ratio
Fearless Leader: recognized as female the world over
Fearless Leader: ready to breed female
Fearless Leader: this is just from the back
Fearless Leader: I'm going to fill in the back of her thigh
Fearless Leader: under the butt
Fearless Leader: with a smaller leaf than her hips
Fearless Leader: and I'm going to pull it to fit
Fearless Leader: you start doing that on this second layer of muscle
making
Fearless Leader: I'm going to take a small leaf and stretch it
Fearless Leader: to be her calf at the back of her leg
Fearless Leader: then we'll turn her over and start adding breasts and
such all
Fearless Leader: any questions before that?
teri56: none here

frogger70301: Just take a min.
