Quoted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomb_Raider


"Lara's famous breast size was in actuality brought about by accident. Toby Gard was messing around with the model when he accidentally blew up Lara's bosom to 150% of what he intended it to be. As he was resizing it back to normal, the other designers saw what he was working on and told him they loved it and that he should keep the increased size."

I thought this was bit funny actually, that her boobs were gigantic because of a misstake :D

(i apologize if its been posted before or that its proven to be a lie)

That's ancient information. I'm sure 90% of the forum members know that.

Lara's famous pony tail was also created by accident when an clumsy CORE employee bumped an artist as he was drawing Lara. ;)

Bah, i seem to give useless information 99.99% of the time :p

According to an interview I read with Toby Gard, they were supposed to be that size. :p
It makes sense. You've got to consider that Core had the rather difficult task of marketing a lead female character to an almost exclusively male audience. They would want to...*ahem*...maximize her selling points. ;)

ajrich17901 and Phlip; could you stop the "hate". It may be normal language for your private social life but not on this forum. Thank you. :)

Wow, you hate him because he gave Lara Croft one of her most recognisable trademarks? The two things that are as much a part of her image as her braid, dual pistols, turquoise top and brown pants?

That's just weird.

Breasts...Overrated when it comes to virtual characters.:p

Nah, I really don't see the point in them.I sure didn't like TR because of them (or because of Lara for that matter)....


I'm not naive tho and I realize the power they really have as far as marketing goes...unfortunately...

no actualli it's because he made or changed legend so much because |I read somewere that when he was introduced to the project, he changed so much stuff, and it's very unprofessional to fiddle around with her boobs, OK mabe hate is over the top, but I'm just saying that it was a dumb thing to do!

Endow
09-02-07, 19:28
And why was it unprofessional/dumb of him?

Because you don't like it?Because the market doesn't like it?Because the fans don't like it?Because it makes the game less enjoyable?Because it steals some of Lara's personality?

Read what I've made bold:
Toby Gard was messing around with the model when he accidentally blew up Lara's bosom to 150% of what he intended it to be.

1. he shouldn't have been messing around
2. He wouldn't have made that accident if he'd not have been messing
3. He changed the intensions.

offline now, later

Could you just stop make infantile assumptions about a professional artist's intentions, Phlip.

1-You DO know what "messing around" means in any creative endeavour don't ya?

2-Right you are.

3.Whose intentions?What are intentions?When something is beeing created you never end up with the original idea because you start have other ideas in the meantime that maybe could be better.And then you are working within a group which is made of people with ideas of their own.


PS:You needn't be so arrogant.I'm sure no one here needs/wants to know if you are online or not.

ГЫ-ГЫ! :vlol: Lara's breasts were so big, she couldn't do push-ups. And it wasn't because they were heavy.

Ideally, a source should be cited for statements. It's unclear if any of the sources at the end of the Wiki article contain the accidental enlargement story.

Exactly, messing around with something is not unprofessional, altought it may looks like, it's really a normal behavior, and most of things we see as final produtcs actually came from messing around with things...

Altought in this piticular case I really think is just a rumor, boobs size:p ... you don't need to mess with them.. But I truly believe in the Braid case...

And yeah, I remember reading that, and if it was an accident, I can see why all the designers 'loved it' ;)

Wow, that's new for me XD So funny, and the fact that's it's true makes it even more hilarious :D

But what if Toby stayed with Core till TR6? Perhaps he would mess with the size of Kurtis'... er...aehm... :whi:
