    Alright bro, then it reminds me of Furiosa because it was what she actually looked like. Happy with your nitpicking adventure finally?

      Not really, still don’t have an explanation for the phrasing. Obviously you don’t owe me an explanation but I’m still curious.

      It’s something I always wanted to ask people that would comment about one of my sculpts based on another IP. They’d come up to my stall and say a variation of “reminds me of (character from IP)” and I never had any idea how to respond. It was very clearly the character but sculpted as a different species, both in big obvious stuff and the small details (sculpting it had been a fun challenge as I’d normally do original sculpts). Yes, it does remind you of the character it’s supposed to represent, convention goer, much like red paint reminds you of red paint.

      Just thought it was funny that it would come up here and puzzle me all over again 😂

        It’s pretty simple, and you can deduce it yourself.

        1. I didn’t see the title.
        2. I didn’t recognize the outfit exactly, because I don’t memorize characters’ outfits exactly.
        3. I found it to be similar, obviously, because it’s the very outfit. So I said it reminds me of Furiosa.

        Surely this explanation wouldn’t be too difficult to imagine on your own. But it’s 2–3 simple steps laid out for you now, so hopefully you are satisfied now. 👍

        Happy Holidays.

          If I was able to deduce it (no, phone, not seduce it, calm down!) I wouldn’t be asking. I’m not here purely to be a dick, despite appearances to the contrary.

          I think the confusion here is that I can’t imagine the half-remembering thing with the costume. As in, being able to roughly remember it but not being certain upon seeing it. Kinda like when a name is on the tip of one’s tongue - seeing it tends to get the reaction of “that’s it!”.

          (This might also explain why I don’t get what the title has to do with it)

            Maybe you have a really good visual memory. Some people who have that can have a hard time imagining how other people can like… “kinda remember” things. 😅 I have an okay ish visual memory.

            I’m great with voices on the other hand. When I hear famous voice actors I’m always so baffled when others can’t hear. “How do you not hear how that’s [famous person X]??”

              Strangely I’m pretty aphantasic!

              Clearly there’s something odd going on with how I store this stuff. Nice skill on the voices! I can identify some but other times I feel almost voice blind. I can listen to a podcast for literal years and struggle to tell the hosts apart (beyond “that’s someone else talking”).
