She's too skinny! Her proportions are like a man with wide shoulders and hips the same width as shoulders. There was a female body builder at CSUS when I was finishing my bachelor's and she had big arms, but her hips were much larger than her shoulders. The miniature looks like just a dandy dude and not a monsterously powerful woman.

I love brienne...she makes the best of what she's got and is beautiful on the inside just like we all should be. Most of the miniatures so far have been excellent, but I'm thinking that darksword needs to redo Brienne.

If some of the rumours are true then some of the women body builders actually were men at one time. But, the fact...which Tom points out in his blog "[a man's] ribcage is about as wide as his pelvic bone. A typical woman by contrast has a hipbone wider than her ribcage".

The sculpture looks like the hips are as wide as the ribcage. Also, the thighs are not thick enough for the upper torso...I would expect Brienne to have slightly thicker thighs than hips even. I think Tom tried to make Brienne look like a man instead of a monster...which is what I felt that George was going for...not that Brienne looked like a man, but that her shape was distorted from what a woman or man should be.

Well...I'm not going to like all the miniatures, so this must be one of them.
