What I find amusing about these designs is they are made by an Chinese company - but there’s almost no link to Chinese fashions, clothing, designs, etc.

These are basically Chinese artists looking at how Western artists have tried to imagine these costumes, then trying to make them kind of like the weird western fantasy designs they see in western video games.

Okay and? This line of logic reminds me of when Pixyteri thinks the Japanese only eat Japanese food.
 
Today in making male characters more sexy, they turn one guy's weapons into dicks.
You know, one thing I’ve always noticed about typical Tumblr “THIS is what REAL women find sexy” posts and redraws, it always comes off as code for “why isn’t my cross-dressing/yaoi fetish mainstream”

But the more I see BABD’s redesigns, the more I question if they really understand what appeals to yaoi fan girls either. Most of the ones I know of don’t like saggy moobs, and I honestly wouldn’t have batted an eye if said moobs and “phallic” (I definitely wouldn’t have gotten dicks from those if they hadn’t said anything) shoulder guns had been the actual design. I doubt most gamers would have either.

See, now the first thing that jumped out at me was how much that Torb variant looked like Bro Team Pill, and how it was obvious BABD wanted the shoulder-warming pleasures of Brote's signature sex-move, the Salty Pauldron™.
 
I don't know about anyone else, but BABD's seething, frothing at the mouth hate boner for Overwatch is one of the funniest things to me about the blog.

They don't realize how absolutely batshit insane they sound when they start ranting "Overwatch SAYS they want to "do womyn better" huh? Well what about these TWO WHOLE CHARACTERS who are showing three inches of sinful skin and and have minor clothing details that could be potentially construed as provacotive on these completely optional skins, huh? Huh? EXPLAIN YOURSELF BLIZZARD." Especially when you see skins like this one that have similarly revealing and impractical details that would tick all the same boxes on their stupid bingo card.
 
Don't mind me, I'm just autistically shitting all over their magnum opus.

My favorite is more their focus on DC when they bitch about comics. I don't know why them in particular even though they admit to not knowing much about them. It's funny because shit like one of the most famous Batman issues involved him sword fighting shirtless in the desert.

A Marvel focus would kinda make more sense if they were an MCU fan that hated "those icky comics" but of the big two, DC has tons of fan service moments focused on the guys.
 
That's just ugly. Even putting aside the political context, she doesn't have a build suitable for the armour - looks as if she'd tumble over or walk as if a turtle's lodged up her ass.
It's worth noting in context, Angela is Thor's sister so the armor (or lack of it) only really exists for style. That plus "Pantheon Gods" like them are imprints of humanity's consciousness on the mystical energies of Earth so it's not inaccurate to call her a meme.

Just another instance of complaining about an impractical costume when the clothes are in more danger than the person wearing them.
 
I think most of their redesigns fall flat when you consider they never put a fucking helmet on anyone. Also that weird little loincloth on front is a total liability.

Also the redesign is visually ugly as sin. if I was any good I'd been tempted to draw it again with the their parameters and not look like total shit.
