Body confidence campaigners try to redesign video game women

Quote:Female video games characters, including Lara Croft, have been redesigned to look like real women, thanks to body confidence campaigners.
Ten popular female characters have been altered in Photoshop to give them more realistic body dimensions, replacing the unrealistically idealised versions of women that they currently represent.
The new character images are the work of eating disorder site bulimia.com.

...

“Some gaming studios boast their hyper-realistic lighting techniques, touting natural cloud movements as the latest features of their games. And with that kind of attention to detail, it makes us wonder, why can’t they accurately portray the female body?”.
