Description Also - check out the mirror painting there.
Mirror painting is when the artist sets a mirror up and uses themselves as a reference. This was common practice before Google image search existed. You can usually tell due to the posture - are they facing the camera or looking over their shoulder? Does the female character have anatomy that is oddly manly and she's not trans? The woman sitting on the bed has a very male figure with a female face and side-boob added. It's fun to notice these since you can imagine the painter posing in the same position and glancing over at the mirror thinking "Damn I'm hot."

For some reason, reading the title made "All The Small Things" by Blink-182 start playing in my head. I'm... I'm not sure why this is.

Also, that font looks oddly familiar, but I can't place where I've seen it used before. Dangit, that's gonna bug me now.

And I think what's bugging me about the font is that it's like a micro-fraction off of the sort of font you'd see on a German propaganda poster in a WWII film. The dissonance between font and subject matter is killing my eyeballs. XD

Lol! You're right! That lady on the bed has such teeny-tiny hips. Jeez, I know there wasn't google, but just go to the store and get a Sear's swimsuit catalog or something.Β

Perspective's funky as a monkey too.

Either not!Martha is standing on a raised floor past the bed, Martha's bed is barely a mattress on the floor, or they're floating in Pepto-Bismalβ„’ fluidic space and actual ground has no meaning.


Or not!Martha is a ΒΎ scale halfling and standing on the same mattress as Martha (......actually there's an entire dA fetish clique devoted to this)

I imagine having a fetish like that is difficult since you can't actually achieve it in real life.Β

Same, though mostly with my hands and arms. Sometimes taking a photo of my hand in a very specific position (holding a pen while pointing almost at the camera) is impossible to thing out on your own without a reference.Β 
As a result everyone, including the giant athlete, sometimes has delicate nimble fingers.

There's nothing wrong about it. It's an old technique and great exercise. The problem is that when you're a man using mirror painting for a woman figure, you need to as well readjust the proportions and the other way around. Men and women have different body structure and it's very obvious here that the artist didn't even try. Especially the sitting blonde...that is a skinny man with drawn on side boob and wig.

Gay girls are just people - they get mad at jerks who make them late to things and think head scabs are gross.Β

Ah I see.
I don't know why but I had a feel that books from this time shows women as bored of something - if the subject of book contain sex .
