My current height is 176 cm and this is mock up photo +11 cm, 5.5 cm for tibias and 5.5 cm for femurs but I think 6 cm for femurs and 5 cm for tibias would be better, also wingspan is 180 cm

what do you think guys? Does It look OK?

From what I can tell looks fine but quadrilateral at 176 is insane. Just do 8cm femurs and call it a day, 6 ft and a half inch is a perfectly good height

Thanks for your time. 8 cm is too much for me, 6 cm is perfect for femurs and 5-5.5 cm for tibias which is 11.5-12 cm imo

lol your current height is my dream. 😂
Which country you belongs too and whats the average height in your country?
There’s no benefit going over 6 feet i guess.

But looking at your pic. Your proportions will look good if you go above 185 cm. I guess your torse is pretty huge. You really need longer legs to make up.

Hi Samuel, i think at 187 cm your arms are too short. For me, getting taller and body proportions are important. When we discussing about body proportions, arm length to body height ratio (ABR) and leg length to body height ratio (LBR) are more important than wingspan. Based on my estimation your arm length is 75.7 cm, so at 176 cm your ABR value is 0.43, which is normal. At 187 cm your ABR value becomes 0.40, which is below average.

If possible, can you share your arm length and leg length with us for better ABR and LBR calculation?

Does anyone know what leg lengthening ratio is considered appropriate? If so, could you please share the formula or guideline? Thank you.
