What happened to her left side?
The artist is trying to depict a woman with extreme musucular definition everywhere other than their arms, who has roughly C to D sized breasts but nearly 0 body fat everywhere else, but the artist doesn't understand what musculature/skeletal structure around the waist/torso area actually looks like.
Its not impossible for an extreme female athelete/body builder to get that level of musucular definition ... but it would be quite difficult, the leg muscles are still probably unrealistically massive, the arms not matching the rest of the body would mean they basically never do upper body work, the breasts would likely be smaller if the rest of the body had such low body fat, and the way the muscles are drawn around the hip are just anatomically incorrect.
She's basically drawn as if she is a kind of human mutant that is missing about the lower third of her ribcage, and has a massive pelvis, and then has a fantasy musculature wrapped around that skeleton.
Maybe they were just asking what the crazy bump is. I think its just supposed to be the crest of her pelvis.
It is supposed to be the crest of her pelvis, but its ... very, very unlikely that an actual human being would have a pelvis/toso area that looks like that.
She has insane muscular definition over the pelvis in areas that... there aren't muscles there, that are shaped like that, in regular human anatomy.
Areas of the pelvic/torso region that a regular human has ligaments in, ie, tissue that tethers a human muscle to a bone, are drawn as if they are entirely muscles that could be worked out and grown in volume... (see the image in my above post. yellow is common areas that store fat, red is actual muscles, white is ligaments)
... the drawn figure's pelvic crest is also significantly higher than her belly button, which... is either wildly unrealistic, or wildly uncommon in actual humans. The proportions are off.
...as well as all the other 'not technically literally impossible but extremely unlikely' kind of combinations of anatomical features that make the whole figure in totality very strange, as I already noted.
Basically, whoever drew this has or is appealing to a muscle mommy kink.
