What are normal tibia/femur proportions?
« on: January 12, 2023, 07:39:01 AM »
Apparently im right at .80 and when I lengthen its going to throw that off. 

Is there a standard deviation to keep in mind or levels you really shouldnt go above or below?

At what number under .80 will I start to look weird?

My ratio will drop to .73 after lengthening.  Is this too outside the standard deviation?

Interesting.  It seems even 4cm is throwing my proportions off.  Ill be at like 1.36.  Im not sure if I should do less or accept this.
