No human being in real life has perfect anatomy, so I love when characters have little flaws and imperfections here and there.
I love longer necks, bigger hands and feet or rounder hips (on male characters) as long as it's on purpose. Some people might use "but it's my style!" as an excuse to not try, but others have great grasp on anatomy and can draw realistic bodies and yet choose to go for a more stylised direction.
Not everybody who twists the human body is lazy and ignorant about it
edit I'm not saying that we should use this as an excuse for shitty anatomy, having basic knowledge of anatomy -of whatever species- is important. This stamp is aimed for artists who have done their share of life drawing, who can draw an almost perfect human body if needed but choose more stylized directions. Know the rules before you can bend/break them.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
