I am aquainted with two real-world men -- one of them is about 5' tall (or less), and probably weighs in, dripping wet, at around 100lbs. The other one is approx. 6'-2" tall, and probably tips the scales over and crashing to the floor at something like 350lbs+. If I was going to attempt to model the first man, I'd use David as a base. If I was going to attempt to model the second man, then I'd use M3 as a base.
But I use female figures in my scenes about 90% of the time. It's a deep mystery as to why that would be the case.
BTW - as a bit of an OT side note -- recorded female voices are the ones most often used in things like alarm systems for the military. This is because studies have shown that men respond more quickly to the sound of a woman's voice than they do to the sound of a man's voice. Once again: a deep mystery. I wonder how much money they had to spend to figure that one out..........?
