What do you think of my proportions here?

Edit Post

I've asked this before but that picture wasn't so good.
Please note:
-I know the picture isn't like most peoples', in their underwear and all but those are impractical. I wanted you guys' opinions on how I'll look normally.
-The picture is taken from a lower angle so makes the upper body look smaller. It's mainly to see what you think of my femur:tibia proportions. I'm honestly not worried about having long legs or short arms or such.

In the first picture I'm 5'2, in the second, 5'5.

Yay.

Thank you! I'll try that sometime. This just feels way more practical.

Meaning my arms are short? Eh, I'm fine with that.
Also in this picture, the camera might make the whole upper body(+arms) look smaller than they are.

Quote from: Uppland on October 15, 2015, 11:19:43 PMYes and you legs will look long in shoes, I think you will be ok though but definitely don't go above 7CM.

I have a short wingspan and so my arms will look a bit short after surgery. I've decided to accept it since Dr. Franz said humerus lengthening might affect hand function -and I just can't risk that.

Regardless, I prefer having short arms from being short overall.

I feel the same way as you. And arm lengthening is overkill to the max.
My wide shoulders should cover up my short arms and small hands to an extent.

Quote from: Uppland on October 16, 2015, 09:37:43 AMYes, width is more important as long as your arms aren't ridiculously short. Still if there is ever a way to safely increase arm length I will be first in line, same with hand size.

I agree about the hand size lol. At least yours aren't 6.5 inches..

Quote from: Taller on October 16, 2015, 10:12:09 AMI see a few naturally tall people with pretty short looking arms each day. It's not the norm but it is definitely naturally occurring.
Yeah, I agree. It would take a REALLY observant non-LL person to notice someone has short arms or even care about it.

Quote from: KrP1 on October 16, 2015, 11:38:58 AMIts not the best picture to compare because of thr clothes but i can see that you have short femurs and long tibia. You definitely look better in the second pic. Your arms are short but doing only femurs that will not be a problem
Was going for a more practical situation/picture. And thanks!

Quote from: Nightwish on October 16, 2015, 03:19:56 PMOut of interest, what is your wing span?My wingspan is 5'4. If I had longer arms/hands it would've been 5'5 or 5'6 lol.
