Pros and Cons
Other pros and cons to consider that haven’t been mentioned above.
Pros
- This is one of the most realistic body shapes for heavier folks I’ve seen on the grid. While it was originally a joke body used by trolls, it’s gained popularity and been revamped to be more of a body positive product instead of a mean one.
- Jonathan comes with almost everything you need right in the box. Hair, skin, clothing, etc.
Neutral Notes
- The feminine version of Jonathan, June, has an updated version in the works, according to the creator. You can read more about it in the Piggu Discord. At this point in time there doesn’t seem to be work on an updated Jonathan.
Cons
- Jonathan uses the original SL skeleton. This means that the appearance sliders won’t let you change him much. His height, arm length, legs, and a few other things can be modified via appearance sliders.
- Poses and AOs tend to clip on larger bodies. You’ll want to make sure to demo anything of that sort to make sure you like how it looks before purchasing.
- The body does not have much third party support. If you want a huge wardrobe this may not be the body for you.
