page from "La Geste de Chavaliers Dragons" showing a naked woman with red hair from the back, she is looking up at a forest with creatures around her, her butt is thrust backwards as her torso is thrust forward, the picture has been edited to remove how thin and rubber like her back used to be in the original
page from "La Geste de Chavaliers Dragons" showing from behind, a red-haired woman naked looking into a forest of monsters and elves, her butt is thrust backwards and her spine bent forward 90 degrees at her butt, and her torso looks like it's flat from the side, like 2-dimensional, the result is her torso looks like a bent piece of taffy pushed out to her butt

"So I decided to see how much I could fix of this with a very hasty (like, two minutes) photoshop job, and… wow.

Two minutes in photoshop. TWO. F&#%ING. MINUTES, and she looks like a person who could actually exist without being in constant pain.

I just find it sad when you can change one thing just a teensy bit and it has this much of an impact on the overall look. It’s like when an airline maintenance team comes tragically close to discovering a flaw in a plane shortly before said plane explodes in midair and has a terrible crash that kills everyone on board*.

Also, I’m beginning to suspect the original was drawn by someone who knew at least a little bit about human anatomy (although the arms are absurdly skinny but then again so are mine so I’m willing to cut a *little* bit of slack there**), but then someone else came in and said “NOPE NOT SEXY ENOUGH and… yeah. I don’t know.

*I’ve been watching too much Air Crash Investigations lately.

**but not much"

It’s amazing how much of a difference that makes.
