Thank you, that means a lot to me! Obviously I don't want you to make something you don't like, of course. It's your project and you should enjoy making what you enjoy. But it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy to know my feedback is considered. It's very magnanimous of you!
Though re-examining myself, aside from samey-ness and cookie-cutter body overload, maybe part of my issue is it feels off romancing a bunch of girls who all have my body type? My experience dating girls IRL mostly has them being larger or smaller than me in body type, height, and booba size. XD

Hey, that'd be fun! Obviously I don't expect you to have a token BBW since I know from experience that that can be hard to do in 3D VN modeling in a way that hits a mix of realistic and appealing to more than just chubby chasers. It's also difficult to model female characters who are petite, small-breasted, and short without looking like children (and I say this as an IRL legal loli myself). But hey, anime like Uzaki-chan, Dragon Maid, goblin girls, and Mythic Manor show there's a definite market for shortstacks and MILF-type bodies. :3
Oh, but if the inspiration ever struck you and you had the idea to include a full-figured girl, I personally think Nikuko from "Please Tell Me Galko-chan" is a great example of drawing one with a design that can appeal to more than just chubby chasers. It helps that the boys in-story consider her hot and she's a rare case of "fat and proud." She even got more and more screentime as the manga went on because the author saw that a lot of her fans really liked Nikuko. Also a really fast runner and swimmer despite her weight which is pretty truth-in-television. My current girlfriend is a big, beautiful woman and she's way more physically capable than my slender, 120 lbs soaking wet form. XD
I do have tried making "chubby" characters but as you said it is pretty hard, however, I'll keep trying it since having one or two chubby characters in the game would be pretty interesting. I'm very careful when making "petite" characters because I don't want them to look as "loli" since that could be illegal in some countries. That's why I tried making Elizabeth rather creepy instead of cute and Honey something like a petite girl with kind of big breasts
Oh, and sorry for the walls of text. I'm just pretty passionate about character writing so when I caught a whiff of a potential kindred spirit I got a bit chatty. :(
It's also a matter of disability accomodation. I'm not visually oriented, so having characters who look distinctly different from each other helps that.
