I used elezen as an example and have screen shots that show the issue regarding the odd modeling in their necks. Here is an ablum of it:

I’d like to stress Elezen isn’t the only race that could use a little love to their models. I’m currently working on grabbing some screen shots of other models that have odd issues but if anyone else has any examples to provide of odd character model problems I would encourage you to post them so they can “positively look into it”! Thanks!

Edit:

Here is a submission given to me by an FC mate of some issues that the lala models have:

Most race stuff only really pertains to the gear above the neck, hence the problem with the Elezen models is that very specific cases make them look very wrong. With Lalafell, a lot of stuff was simply made for their models to begin with since they're chibi, but it's a bit careless when their arms clip through everything.

With the Miqo'te and Au Ra models, tail clipping is VERY obnoxious, especially in clothing that was clearly meant to be a cape with physics, and is instead stiff. Then there is clipping tails through mounts. I don't buy "too hard" for this. Clipping issues are an intentional design disregard that could have been at least taken into account when the gear was originally designed (eg with capes) or just put tail cut-outs on the gear that would otherwise look ridiculous. They existed in 1.0 gear.

Few people actually know how the models are built, but some very pertinant details about how they're assembled can be found online, and it kinda just breaks down to "they could have made them more complicated, but chose not to in order to make them look better (how face, nose and eyes are assembled.)
