Need a mockup for 8cm femurs, 4cm femur 4cm tibia, and 8cm femur 5cm tibia
Please help

Also, I’d like to know what all of you think of my proportions to start and how much you think would look normal.
(Still need a mock-up please)
-
By the way I am 5’9”
-
Someone please help

Original / +8 fem / +4 fem +4 tib / +8 fem +5 tib

Thanks so much, what does everyone think about them? Which looks best?
-
go tibia, your femur is already long.
-
What about 4 and 4? Thoughts?
-
Last one is bad
4cm tibia is best
-
What about 4cm femur and 4cm tibia would that be too much?
-
Might be. Your wingspan looks on the low side
-
4+4 looks more than fine to me
-
I really want to get the 8 femur and 4-5 on tibias. Is the last picture which shows that really that bad? Please honest opinions
-
What's your inseam(from crotch bone to floor)?
-
Not sure if I measured 100% correctly, but I got 32 inches. Thoughts?
-
Thoughts?
-
What’s your wingspan? First two are okay
-
No my inseam is 32 inches, and my thoughts were about the last pic
-
Just curious, what do you guys think about the last one, which is 8cm femur and 5cm on tibias. Is it too weird looking? Personally that would be the one I’d most want to do
-
No offence mate but your wingspan looks extremely short to handle any lengthening at all.
-
You really think so? Even if I did 4 and 4 split?

You could pull off 4cm but would only 4cm be worth the trouble and the money? Then again it could just be the quality of the pic. I say measure your wingspan.
-
5cm on any segment would look ok and your recovery given your starting height should be very good. An extra 8cm looks odd and would require a further surgery.
-
Yeah and with measuring I am 5’9 and have a 5’9 wingspan. Honestly I think I would just go for 4-5cm on tibias because my femurs are already long, and 4-5cm on tibias wouldn’t look out of proportion and still get me to 5’11 and 6’ with boots
-
Actually the more I think about and look at the pictures 4 and 4 doesn’t look that bad. I would start with 4cm on tibias and if I still had the dysphoria id go for 4 on femurs after a year
-
I don't think that your femurs are long and tibias short.
They are proportionate.
Either segment will look too long if you do LL because they are completely proportionate now.
Stick to 5cm max on tibias and consider yourself done because longer tibias look more aesthetic.
-
Definitely get your point, but since I’m 5’9 if I really wanted to get to that 6 foot, and assuming after 4cm on tibias and I STILL have height dysphoria, I’d probably go for 4cm internals on femurs. But yeah I agree long tibias are aesthetically pleasing and especially considering it’d only be 4-5cm which would put me at 5-11
-
Thought about it: definitely going for 4 and 4, assuming after 4 on tibias I’m still dissatisfied. Thanks for the input friends!
-
What do you guys think of the last mock-up, which is 8 in femurs and 5 cm in tibias.
-
Your arms do look short in the last one. But you could very well start working out, with some muscle on that frame a think the apparent difference would go away.
-
Gotcha. What do you think of the 4 and 4, (which would put me at 6’1)
-
Looks great! Although doing two double surgeries seem like more than i could handle.
-
Tbh I think 8 CM femurs would look the best. I always think the tibias only thing looks kind of weird when a short person has really high knees but the rest of them is small. With femurs, you can do a lot of lengthening and no one can tell in real life because it is hard to decipher where your torso actually ends and your femurs begin.
