Is Tinker Bell An Adult, A Teenager or A Child?

She has a full figure, but her face is very child-like, almost cherubic.

Hi
I was recently listening to an interview with the original model for Tinker Bell. She said the animators were going for a younger, girlish face (around the age of twelve) and a growing young woman's body. I guess they were trying to get a balance between cuteness and sexual appeal? To me she always came across as more adult, that might be because of her sassy attitude though.

She's a fairy... who says they have the same age/transitions we do?

I was going to same the same about Tinker Bell. Fairies never grow old. So perhaps they were never young either.

I always got the feeling that Tinerkbell was a grown woman, which made it weird that she was in love with Peter who was a little boy. I got that idea because of her checking out her hips and to me that was clearly something a woman or a older teenage girl would do. Of course also she is built like a woman. I guess her trying to kill Wendy and throwing a hissy fit in regards to her makes sense when it seems she has a 12yr olds mind.

She was based on a 22 years old model.

I am asking about the CHARACTER, not about whoever served as the model for the cartoon.
