A question of height.
« on: September 30, 2009, 05:01:38 PM »
This might be a silly question, but how tall are fairies (Cirno, Lily White) and youkai insects (Wriggle) supposed to be?

I haven't seen them depicted next to humans much for size comparison.

Wriggle is as tall as a human child.

The fairies vary in Length; in between the size of your hand to the size of a young girl.

Yeah, sizes aren't usually given much thought being all we see of the Touhous visually are sprites and cut-ins.

In anycase, I'm going to agree with Pako and say the same.

Cirno would most likely be the same height as Wriggle. Lily White is a bit taller than them I would guess, perhaps about the size of a 16 year old.

Actually, Wriggle reaches up to Eirin's shoulders in Inaba, so she can't be all that much shorter than Udonge...

Yeah, but UNL also has 3- to 3.5-head body proportions.

No, it's a bit more deformed than normal. Sometimes I wonder why Tasofro took the art in that direction. It's hard to imagine them in a serious setting with those proportions.

There's your problem: Touhou isn't a serious setting.
