#i can't think of a single humanoid race with a different design

thinks about anthro miguel to no avail

i've always wondered what an anthro miguel would look like because. Miguel is, like. a concept and I can't just give her a humanoid body. Like, the way miguel looks on the outside is like this.

She is a series of disconnected levels in a black void. If you somehow managed to get outside of the level and into the black void that is the unused rest of her that is what you'd see. how would you even try translating that into a humanoid form. And like, even then, what would she resemble? How close to human would an "anthro design" get? How would you even start?

If you're going straight up human, how. How? you can't pick a sex, you can't pick a race, you can't pick a bodytype, you can't even pick an aesthetic because Miguel, through the very nature of the levels, has every single one. The only thing i could even imagine her being with a human design is that "[pronoun]'s an architect" and you wouldn't even know what pronouns she uses because everyone has a different perception of Miguel. Miguel's name isn't even Miguel or actively uses she/her, that's just what Cameron uses.

And if you go anywhere outside of human, how far from human do you go? How do you decide that either? Do you make her an object head (what object would you even use)? do you make her a bunch of scribbles in the shape of a person and upon closer inspection those scribbles are, in fact, levels? no idea

possible anthro miguel design ideas from least to most accurate

#miguel #the most boring (and initial) idea i had was that she would be a skinless human. like just muscles. thats not even accurate in any way

i love ME with all my heart

but they really didn’t try with the hand designs at all, did they?

#like even in andromeda the same three fat fingers #i can't think of a single humanoid race with a different design #no wait #the asari have human hands #they are a whole other thing that i'm not getting into rn #mass effect
