Vitruvian Shapes are for discerning SL users who are looking for both an attractive shape as well as a more reasonably sized avatar to get the most out of their SL experience.
All Vitruvian Shapes are marked with their correct SL height, so they may be smaller than you are used to as most SL avatars are around 7-8' tall.
They are also rigorously checked for proper body proportions, making them among the most anatomically correct avatar shapes in SL. They are also available in a number of body types, providing the perfect starting point for anyone wishing to easily create a more attractive shape.
These are not skins, these are shapes.
Check out the additional screenshots to see Vitruvian Shapes used in SL avatars, plus a comparison with the SL starter shapes.

Do keep in mind that the shape is only half the equation for muscular bodies. Customers are encouraged to pair this shape with a muscular skin that complements it in order to achieve that heroic look!
Likewise, different skins can be made to look good or bad depending on the facial features of your shape. Vitruvian Shapes are full perm so you are able to copy the face settings over from any other shape that already works with your skin!

I was a gangly and horrid creature until I met these shapes, and now I'm fit and well proportioned. I've told all my alts - get these shapes! All of them are full perm, so you can love them, mod them, shape all your friends.
Thank you so much!
