Yes, I know it's dark, but it's meant to be, she is after all a shadowdancer :) It appears slightly brighter in the game though. Sizes Huge and Large are full body like the big preview, med. sm. and tiny are cut like the small preview pic. Stock-photo used: http://www.sxc.hu/browse.phtml?f=view&id=107607 **update** I lighted up her wrist so it wouldn't look quite as thin. I also lighted up a part of her arm for the same reason. The shadow made it look very skinny. Hope this helps :-) While I was at it I fixed a very blurry line where the bracer meets the skin too, it had annoyed me for so long :p
OK: I made a few changes, I hope it helped :)"Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"

" --------------- 1) This isn't a pic made by merging bodyparts from different people. This is the actual pose the lady made. Neither have a distorted or cut back any parts of her. The arm is that long and the shoulder is in that exact same spot, I only covered it up with that cloak, so even if it looks weird to you, it is correct ;-) 2) I haven't made her wrist any slimmer, it probably appeares thin because of the shadows. Besides, the woman *is* very fine boned. 3) Her index finger *is* slightly curved because that is how it is in the original pic ;-) "Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"
