When busts stop being busts

[Captain Hindsight]

Does anybody else think that busts should stop at the chest and shoulders?

I've seen more and more busts, mainly at the cheaper end of the scale, start to go down as low as the tummy, hips and sometimes even the tops of legs. If you're showing that much why not just have a full statue? I really can't see the point in having a bust that starts at the thighs, it just looks weird, like they had a full statue and just lopped it off at the legs.

Apologies to anyone who clicked here thinking they were going to see tiddies.

The definition of 'Bust' is 'A representation of the upper part of the human figure' so yes, I agree with you.

I thought this was going to be a Jamarcus Russell thread.

Agree with OP, below the bust ain't no bust!

I don't like the busts with arms

I don't like the busts with arms

I like busts with legs

I would generally agree, but the 1:2 endo bust from HCG is one of my favorite pieces and I have their full figure too. You can probably get away with it more as they could still function as half a figure unlike most other people/creatures.

I don't think busts should "function", that part makes it even worse for me.

Why? I seem to recall some in the movies like that even.

Sorry I completely mis-read your post, I thought you meant the bust had movement.

I get you now Yes, that's a bit different.

But when I see things like this, I don't get it, it looks stupid.
