Aphrodite's Face Looks... Mannish?

[Hishiro Nishiro]

I had this impression since I first saw the art, and asked my friends their thoughts on the art without giving my opinion beforehand. They too said her face appeared very strange and masculine. It might be the shadows, but I'm no professional artist and have no real insight other than that it just looks wrong.

I don't recognice the manliness. I feel it's an asthestic picture of a Feminin human looking entity.

I see what you mean. The shade under her left eye does make it look like she has man cheekbones, in a way. I still think she looks pretty obv feminine, but I guess if your first look is at a certain angle you might have trouble unseeing it. Maybe just remove that shade?

I'd like to clarify for future reference that I'm not talking about anything other than the face. Obviously the art depicts a woman.

So if the Art depicts a Woman it's the face of a woman right ?

You aren't adding anything by missing the point that hard. Contextually everyone knows Aphro is a woman. That doesn't mean the face supports that.

I mean, I genuinely don't know what kind of commentary you're expecting this thread to get when you say things like this

"it just looks wrong" isn't really viable feedback to anything.

I know is a bit late, i just recently played the game but Yeah i think the same thing though i also think that it makes the face look more original and not the tipical anime face.
Though i made a "fix" to see how she would look like without the strong cheek bones and big face:

idk man, slap some tits in her face, maybe she'd look more feminine then

For what it's worth, I studied art for 17 years of my life, and yes, her face looks SUPER masculine. Frankly, I'm entirely convinced it's intentional, because there's no way someone could make her face look that masculine, and then have someone sign off on it. I understand accidentally making a face look wrong, I've done it before, but that it made it past being made, and all the way to actually being put in the game, tells me it's intentional.

She looks manish because the devs in this game are too afraid to do anything normal or authentic..all they care about is pandering to the woke mobs hence the black Greeks and skin conditions ffs. Zagreus is only liked for the simple fact he's bi. If they made the game as it should have been it would have been ripped apart for being too white like that's such a crime.. I was unaware we have to hold every other race's hands now while the same courtesy is not returned..

Perhaps try studying a variety of human faces because you don’t seem to know what they look like only how artistic renditions are “supposed” to look
