Tearing issue or not, the old design was infinitely better. And my trouble with the new faces and bodies isn't that they are bad, it's that they are becoming less natural and realistic, and Sino even boasts about realism on their store page. The older bodies had much more believable proportioning (boobs aside). And,the older faces and their realism is what drew me to Sino in the first place, whereas the one on this page is like others have said, like from a video game, or an animation. It is lovely, but doesn't seem like a good direction. I love some aspects of their recent two sculpts though, like the abdomen, and stomach area are fantastic, and the actual shape of the breasts on both the B and the E/D are very nicely shaped, and the ass on both too! I'm only critical of things I see potential in, or actually like. If I hate it, I shut up.dollcurio wrote:I really think this combination of 162 S30 has a very good & balanced slight stylized look, but agree that the 158 small and this 162 share the same slight oddness in the crotch/butt.Colonel Angus wrote:Because I feel it is important to have it known by Sino that not everyone is pleased with the direction they are taking. Granted, it did come off as a personal attack if read that way, and for that I apologize. I just had such high hopes for this company, and even though I still see all of their talent and potential, their artistic direction has taken a turn for the worse.Dees luver wrote:Why bother criticizing his opinion?

That bust to waist ratio is what makes it look unrealistic. bust too big for that build, particularly the torso, and the waist is cartoonishly thin
My theory is it occurred from (multiple?) alterations to reduce chance of tears, the older Sino's had a different design which looked much better to me.
I made this adjustment image (Right side is modified) I wonder if Sino could experiment with fattening up that area between the legs.
The DS 145 EVO is a good example of it done well IMO. It's mainly that the butt crack flows into everything else. On Sino that area appears less defined, the anus to me seems closer to where vag would be ending at. There isn't enough fat to stop the gaping, so it can look a bit off with the large thighs/hips. The outer crease of the "mons pubis" along both legs, would end in a Y or V shape that blends into the butt crack.
similar pose on DS 145 EVO Here are images of the older Sino's with better definition in that area, before changes to address tears:
As far as the gaping goes, in a thread I started, someone mentioned a company that has no issues with it, and it looks perfect. But, I won't name them here on another manuf.'s thread.
, she is lighter than you guess. If without adding any option, she just around 34kg .
