Creepy Anatomy

There is a lot of hype around Platinum Games’ “Bayonetta.” When I first saw her, I felt really creeped out. It wasn’t until I saw this render that I realized what was wrong:
She’s about 10-heads tall. Comic-book heroines tend to be about 8-heads tall. Tall runway models are about 7-7 1/2 heads tall. Her head is disproportionately small and the end result looks really creepy.
Usually when I draw, I tend to make the mistake of making the head disproportionately bigger. But that is also because I think that the face and eyes are the most important features. But in this case, there is no subtlety to what the designers wanted to emphasize – her intelligence!
