You definitely need more college art classes.

Where do you think people go to learn to draw nudes? How do you think
they get taught?

Now, what kind of sick mind would be offended by an image of a pretty girl?

The face somehow looks childlike in a way that looks mismatched to her body.
(But as a latent artist who's been unsuccessful with portraits, I still
struggle with how head and facial features convey age, sex, and other
characteristics.)
The hair and the skin texture are spectacular. The anatomical forms and the
skin textures of the elbow and feet show a remarkable attention to detail, as
well as how her thigh is deformed by the way she sits on the chair.
And refreshingly, the model is shaped like a real woman and not like a Barbie
doll.

I do recall the bunch of lads in the tech support office of one place
had a bit Lara Croft pinup on the wall.
I'm sitting there thinking to myself "um, you guys know that you're
staring at a large polygon mesh, right? I mean, this object doesn't even
*exist* in the usual sense of the word! Even fantasising over an
unattainable supermodel seems better than lusting for a non-existent
fictional character...!"
Given that these guys still thought it was hilarious to say "arse!"
every now and then, I guess that thought would be lost on them...
