Kind of a request, but mostly clever use of practice/warmup to answer someone who didn't get a comment I left about "cheating" when drawing anime style oversized boobs.

So basically : THIS IS NOT ABOUT HOW REAL BOOBS WOULD WORK, but about a possible way to cheat with human anatomy to achieve a desired effect : having a girl with impossibly humongous boobs without messing up the overall feel of looking at a human being too much. (Hopefully)

Used my good old OC Black Nova for the actually finalized sketch.

The idea is to avoid making the shoulders too wide by closing the lines slightly on the top. Normal boobs aren't wider than the torso, or not much, but drawing oversized ones that way makes the shoulders 3 heads wide or more, which isn't very feminine.
The problem that led me to leave a comment in the first place was that i saw a lady with more than 3 heads in shoulder width (almost 4 in fact) because her boobs were huge, and really this makes the girl feels kinda like a dude with boobs on. ^^;

It's also a good idea to slightly extend the torso so the lady doesn't feel like she is "only breasts".
It's kind of about minor tweaks and not overdoing it, and exaggerating proportions work fine and dandy. :)

Got it?
Will scrap later.

-------------------------------------------------
EDIT: Seems this somehow got "popular" because many people start complaining that it's not tutorial-worthy material and that I suck.
That's probably true, but I am tired already of attempting to explain my position to those people.
All this is basically a highly unrealistic way of doing things that some people asked me to share. I did, and somehow this got popular and now some people expect it to be reference material on anatomy...

This was never meant to be more than a glorified private message to those people who requested explanations on my highly unrealistic way of doing things (and I KNOW it is unrealistic and kind of shitty, thank you).
Never was it meant to be an universal reference for people to learn from as in "a great, popular, realistic way to draw boobs".

I'll scrap this as intended right now to avoid wasting time answering more comments who don't understand what this was about.

Since I am considering shifting to storytelling for kids, I will probably have to give up the big boobs anyway, so really, neither do you have to bother that much nor do I.
