Quote from: aspirant185 on January 27, 2016, 09:14:17 PMHey guys,

So, I decided to post some mock-ups.

On the left side its me with my normal height of 175.5 cm, in the middle there is + 4.5 in the tibia for a total of 180 and on the right there is + 4.5 on the femur as well for a grand total of 184.5.

Which one do you think looks best ? I think that proportion wise the one in the middle is really good, the question is, can I pull the third one. My Wingspan is 182.

P.S

Just to add that I am currently 69kg and plan to bulk to around 75 before the 1st surgery.

What is your current inseam?

Do 6.5cm on tibias, and it takes you to 182 (~6') which is above average around the world and at least average in the northern europe. No point having two trauma to your legs.

That is what I decided to do, however, I will do 6 cm or 7 cm on the Femurs. I will post later a mock up to see how it goes. I will most likely go with Dr. Mahboubian in Los Angeles.

What is your sitting height? You are quite leggy. To be honest If I were you I would't do LL at all. You don't have proportions to do it. You are not short anyway. Average but not tall.

Your mock-ups make me sad because I have similar height and I realized that I should't do LL. Now I am only inclide to do correction. Nevertheless, everything above 175 is ok.

The same with Descreteuser. I saw his pictures and I think that he now looks much worse thatn before surgery. Now he looks fairly cartoonish.

I appreciate your opinion but I will still proceed with the surgery. As I said, I will most likely to 6-7 cm on my femurs. I don't believe that proportions can be damaged with that single amount on the femurs. I would agree though that 9 cm even with 2 surgeries would be too much.

It is just that nobody really cares about proportions from the outside world. I ve never seen anybody commenting that somebody has long legs and now I am part of LL Forumorum I can tell when somebody has abnormally long legs and if I ask somebody what they think they are just like - oh I ve never thought about that. So, unless somebody does a ridiculous amount of LL, like 15 +, I dont't think proportions for the untrained eye would be an issue.

Maybe you are right. Maybe I am too concerned about it.

Could you reveal us your sitting height measurement? I am very curious.

I was thinking the same thing when i saw his new body.I cant explain it but something just looks a bit off.He passed his wingspan just 5 cm but still it looks weird.I wouldnt say cartoonish but weird.Im not sure if its about wingspan maybe its about his upper body,what do you think?

Come on guys, Descreteuser was 180 cm and he just did 4 cm. That is basically the very definition of doing safe amount - both out of health and out of proportion concerns My mock-up
