I made a 13cm mockup picture of myself (8cm femur & 5cm tibia). It looks normal for me but what do you guys think? Pic link: https://imgur.com/a/NniTC6X

Looks acceptable to me, actually i have 2 friends who look like that when at beach, you will look even bette rif you build those muscles on your body and legs after.
What i have noticed is that short men usually (9 times out of ten) have the torso just short legs. 90% of mocks up of 13cm of lengthening i have seen look fine. Personally i would oush for 15cm since that won't really make any big difference visually but mostly in your mind.

Do you really think 13 cm does not make a difference? It is clear that 15 is more significant. But 13 is quite a lot and makes a big difference

Ah ic. Thanks for your input! And I agree with what you say regarding torso and short legs. Because most tall men (especially of african descend) have short torso and long legs. I have a friend that is 6’3 but his height is 75% legs lol. Whereas short caucasian and asian men on average have medium to tall torso but are just short due to the the length of their legs

Should be fine after the LL. May I ask your age and height?

Let me make myself clear, 13 cm IS INDEED a great amount. But thinking logically, if 13 is so good, just make another mock of you with +2/+3 more cm. It won't make THAT much difference in the eye BUT a huge difference around people or for your own mental being. Also, yes, shorter people 90% can add 13-15(maybe 16 if u cna pull it off) and be acceptable and tbh normal looking.
Just go around the metro/buss or any bussy area and look around and find short men. I guarantee you every one of em can add 13-15cm(just imagine em). The ONLY times thwy can't is they are extremely skinny/narrow/too short(for example a guy 5'5-5'8 could add 13cm whereas i have yet to see sb 5'0 being okat with that lengthening.)
Last thing I wanna say, in the real world no one notices proportions. Legit no one. I have shown pics of apo(the ones where he looks weird) to 24 people(friends and family members) not a SINGLE one of em say smth. All they said was *he looks handsome and strong* or the other end of the spectrum *abit feminine*. So all in all if you have basic muscle+wide(dont stress this enouph u know what i mean) + a minimum height of 5'4-5'8 go for it.

It’s about safety more than appearance if you’re going over 13cm
