Why does the baneling wear a thong and fishnet stockings in your sketches?


Why do so many males on Team Liquid seem to not know what a thong is?

Don't you look at porn? Have you never seen a woman's underwear?



A thong and a pair of panties look the same from the front. Seeing as your sketches show a frontal view there is no possible way to discern whether or not it is a thong. Thus, it could be a thong.

Unless, perhaps, you wear yours backwards or something.


If they didn't show the back, then why would one assume it's a thong? Having that baneling butt rubbing against my bare ass would be terribly uncomfortable.

You were clearly saying it just for the effect, which is absurd and rude.



The CGI baneling has a top that's like three sizes too small for her bulging breasts. Coupled with your choice of fishnet stockings I made the perfectly valid assumption that you were going for sex appeal with your costume. Am I wrong?

If not I don't really see how a thong would've been invalid.

My original question was simply asking why you chose to go with lingerie and stockings for your costume as opposed to, say, wearing a bloated plush mascot outfit (which is what nearly all people will think of when someone says 'baneling costume'). I'd rather you just not answer the question than to be overly defensive and lash out for no reason. I'll just assume it's a personal design choice.

Yep, that's actually finished, it's just drying now!

And what would be the sex appeal to a thong that no one can see the back of? Also, I believe I've made at least one rant in my blogs about how thongs are ugly, permanent wedges that I just don't understand the purpose of.

And I answered your original question, did I not? Look back a few posts, I believe I addressed the reasons for my choices quite thoroughly.

I'm not being defensive, I'm being irritated by people exaggerating and being absurd to give me more grief. It is quite clear you could have phrased that original question in a more polite manner and without stating an assumption as a fact.

Also, I believe I'm going to be wearing solid black thigh highs if they are in my drawer, I just dislike coloring in solid parts (as you can see by the fact none of the black parts of my costume are shaded except for on the first butt draft).

I think their sponsor didn't come through. :/

Not exactly sure why, but I know it makes me sad. Very, very sad.

... I'm so jealous. You can draw so fine and even though you will probably say 'random sketches' I really do believe its drawn very well and I like the sketches. Not even saying how awesome it is you can design and make your own stuff.

Now its a costume but have you thought about designing your own clothes? I think you could very well do that. And for your design itself, its very female, sexy and for what I can see (foresee, as its not finished) doesn't look cheap or slutty. You can be proud.

Also I hope its not creepy to say, but your tummy is damn fine O.O! ~~~~ sorry.

Actually, Serif was just suggesting last week I look into fashion design. Truthfully, I don't feel fully up to it. I prefer designing weird things and armor! Perhaps I could get into costume design, but I've just about finished my engineering degree, so I'd hate for that to go to waste!

Thank you for your feedback, though, hopefully the actual costume can do the sketches justice!

;D

lol have you seen any high class fashion shows? They have the most ridiculous shit on the runway. Talking big names like versace, gucci, etc. Everyone looks like lady gaga. Even victoria secret has those silly wings and crazy huge costumes they come out in.
