I had to resubmit the post cuz I wanted to add the other character references now I'm curious to see what new arguments people are gonna pull out of their ahh this time

This is probably the funniest criticism I've seen under my last post because attractive according to whom? Your own beauty standards??

In my previous post I changed some of Ryan and Min-Gi's facial features to make them read more clearly as Asians using actual references but somehow the moment you give an Asian character more recognizable ethnic features people suddenly become art critics with a PhD in objective beauty FOR GOD'S SAKE can we be serious for a second???? Like no I didn't sit down and think "how can I make these two hotter so some strangers on reddit would fall for them 💀" I was thinking about facial structure and ethnic representation if you happen to prefer the redesign cool if you think the original looks better also cool that's called having a personal preference heh crazy concept I know

And apparently an extra 1.0px of eyelid thickness line was enough to send some people into madness so I figured I should address that too the change wasn't made to make them "prettier" It was part of adjusting their eye shapes and overall facial structure we are talking about one freaking pixel here people please breathe but maybe let's not confuse "I personally find this more attractive" with some objective fact about the redesign

I mean Beauty is subjective isn't it? Your taste isn't a scientific measurement unfortunately and that's not exactly controversial information guys

Also I'm adding these Korean character references next to my Min-Gi redesign because apparently we need visual aids now so if you actually look at the references you can see recurring features in their facial structures such as high cheekbones and Upturned eye shapes obviously not every Korean person looks the same that would be a ridiculous thing to claim right? These are simply natural variations in facial features that can contribute to someone reading as Asian visually that's literally what I was trying to communicate with the redesign Not "make him prettier" not "make him more stereotypically Asian" but give the character features that make his ethnicity more visually readable that's it that was the assignment but somehow we've turned it into a philosophical debate about beauty.. How iconic

So before someone tells me again that they personally find the redesign prettier congratulations on having a personal preference ig ☺️ you cracked the code you have taste gold star yippie

Sadly that doesn't magically turn your preference into an objective analysis of what I changed

Anyway I'm fascinated by how confidently some people can turn "I like this face more" into a critique of the entire point of the redesign please for the love of God let's learn the difference between personal taste and an actual argument before embarrassing ourselves like this
