Whenever this comes up I assume people have actually never done cosplay or haven't spent much time around cosplayers.

Cosplayers spend 50% of conventions fixing their outfit. It never lasts the day. You can't be tinkering with outfits on an 8-12hr shoot day every single time the person takes too big of a step or walks up a flight of stairs.

The woman on the right in this image is standing completely still in a "normal" pose for a still photo. Go have her do 6 days on a film set and let's see how that outfit turns out.

Well, she’s an AI generated woman, so it’s all made up anyway

That's fair, the hand is a dead giveaway now that I look. But anyway my point largely stands I like to think lol guess I need to check hands more often sadly

If you ask me, her proportions are a dead giveaway. Not a whole lot of real women shaped like that even after cosmetic surgery.

i am truly amazed how many people did not question the size of her waist

People keep saying that but you’d be surprised what people can do in photoshop and with the right lens/angle.

This is the first indication something is off, though. It’s pretty obviously unnatural on first glance. When you look further and there’s no photoshop evidence, it’s a dead giveaway. I’m just saying it’s a really good first indication that this is not a real woman’s shape. It was the first indication to me that this image is fake in some form.

Not saying you’re wrong for noticing it - you are correct afterall! I just put less stock in proportions as a starting point because of “camera and editing tricks”
