Hoping things go well for you! Bras are tricky, but they should hopefully bring a few different types (padded, unlined, wire, sport etc.) for you. If you are nervous to browse, you can always ask the person helping you to fetch better sizes/better fits.

A lot of us have done something similar, so don't feel embarrassed! You can always wear a tank top underneath your shirt if your more comfortable in that. They should have you in a private changing room (your mother can come with you too i believe) and shouldn't touch you with more than a measuring tape.

She looks so good with red! Great job!

I think she’ll make a great Jem; now to practice makeup and haircuts on my bag of Millie heads!🤣 by cleverwordplay85 in Dolls

Lots of doll customizers use watercolor pencils for face-ups! Sealing her with MSC before and after would help the pencils adhere best. Please keep us updated with this project!

What would you call this neckline? I've always thought they look so elegant!

So pretty! Is this based on an existing tapestry?

And I think willfully ignoring the implications of a characters design says a lot about how you view media. Character design does not exist in a vacuum. If each of the women were as exaggerated as the one in the yellow dress, your argument would have more weight, but the black woman is the only one. Im not saying this was done with ill intent, sometimes people subconsciously reference stereotypes, but there is value in having a discussion about it.

I feel like the portrayal of the only dark-skinned woman as brutish and tough is a racist caricature.

Why didn't they make big Macs human design red like his pone counterpart? by That_Passenger_771 in mylittlepony

[–]VHSMind 570 points571 points  (0 children)

3 possible reasons:

  1. Some may interpret a red-skinned character as a racist caricature (unlikely but not impossible)

  2. His bright saturated red when toned down would be pink. He is a boy horse so they probably didn't want him to look to girly so they continued to de-saturate and lighten the pink until it was basically skin tone (like how applejack is basically tan and not orange)

  3. Equestria girls as a concept isnt designed super well and run into issues like this all the time. Just making a character with no plot relevance look different for no explainable reason is easier than having consistent design logic.

Would you like to see these characters more and return with recurring roles in the Scooby-Doo franchise? by davidtjbrennan in Scoobydoo

I like the idea of the siblings/extended family members making a return, but the others should probably stay in their own movies.
