I love my nonmesh body and if a person is good at editing their full shape from head to toe to try and look realistic in their nonmesh body, they might even look better if not similar to mesh bodies. I notice only a few differences: the private area; which can look more realistic in SL bodies by getting the proper clothing layers(female), the hands; which can be made to look realistic by shrinking them some if they are too big. Having a realistic skin makes a big difference too. I recommend Glance Skins, any skin color looks very real and allows you to edit and have freckles and skin definition on your body. Be sure to get the FULLPERM ones. Umm, what was next, oh ok physics. Make sure your areas bounce and move properly and not stiff(females). Mesh feet do look better than SLregular feet, butttt some skins do have realitively fine looking feet too. Having a full mesh body is not so fun, I know because I did try to have one. Ok, say I put on a specified outfit with that body. Once I take that outfit off part of my body goes missing, then I have to wear the mesh HUD to reapply the parts which disappeared. The mesh outfits take up lots of inventory space and having to detach before I attach clothes is not like the old easy way with regular SL bodies. Also, some of the boobies defy gravity and that annoys me. If you have large breasts, there is no way they should be lifted from the rib cage and stick out and up at a slop, especially if you are trying to go for a realistic look. Realistic large boobs rest on the ribs. (I have lg breasts in rl and young so I know what i am talking about). Plus, it seems that many fully mesh bodies have a certain size, though the shape can be edited to a point, they still don't allow for women to have rolls around the waist. However, a few do. Not everyone is meant to be a size '0' or whatever size the mesh body creators are trying to represent Anyways, it is your choice on how you portray your character. I just only told some of the benefits and nonbenefits of having either body.
