Hi!
Can you help me with this before coloring? :)
CC and edits are welcome.
Current:

I personally think her legs are too long, and by making them longer theres no figure.. heres an edit if you dont mind.

i dont know whether your working from reference or not but I would suggest giving her a bit more figure, slightly larger thighs, fuller breasts maybe.. I don't want to sound like a perverted guy or nofin, I just think it looks slightly too manly atm. especially in the face, as she seemingly has a large nose.. plus her forearms are huge.
in the last stage I tried to change these, I also had a feeling she was slightly off balance, moving her left left leg over a few pixels seems to give her more stability.
hope any of this helps.

Awesome. Thank you very much! :D
Her face is just temporary sketch, I will fix this part soon, while color work.
I go back to work. :)
Sorry for my grammar. :/

The ribs are seriously freaking me out, plus, if someone were so thin that the ribs would show like that, she'd have much thinner legs.
Just thought I'd say :3
-
Jad- True! :D I will change this in coloring.

Old -> New
Better?
-
Her breasts look very unnatural to me.

The shoulders also seem a bit funky.

Good, but not enough :)
About balance talk Terley, you not to do this in you last edit (not entirely).
See on this edit for balance (red vertical line). From you she is fall.

Also see on:
hand - more thin, dainty.
breast - as tell you Luzeke. And up left side and a bit larger (nice woman - big bosom, but not milkmaid).
chest - smaller (man have big chest, not woman)
waist - higher
sacrum - higher
shank - bigger, too small (normal woman have long and beautiful legs)
calf - bigger and elegant, smaller toe and foot. And on you image foot stand on not gorizontal surface (slanting too much).
If you paint just for education, why not use pose more intresting for woman? Now she is ready to FIGHT (by frying pan and scoop)!
Or maybe paint more militant pose - about Amazon?
And forget nudity warning in name theme.
Please continue, you may this more better...

Huh... It is ok now?
-
glad to see you working on another piece.
in comparison to the 1st approach, yep, the newer one looks better. however, I believe you can still ‘extract’ something more from the design as now she looks a little, let's say, stiff. look over the edits and just listen to what others say, :)
-
Wow, pretty damn good. And this is coming from a female, just in case you don't know.
edit: Removed the image because it was unhelpful.
I myself have trouble with legs, and it often takes me many tries to get them right, so I didn't try and edit that. I can tell you, however, that her feet are far too small and are not positioned correctly. Her feet need to be out farther from center.
Geez, Bers' edit looks much better than mine, but the legs are still a problem. The ankles seem to be a problem spot. Even though females are more curvy and have more natural fat around their hips and thighs, there needs to be more space between her legs, I think. That would make the leg positioning easier and look more realistic.
Gah, well, that was a horrible amalgamation of critiques. D:
-
i personally think you should re-think the arm positioning, she looks a bit stiff with em at her hips. and her hands are covering up the curves.
Bers' edit is definately the right direction to take imo, consentrate how he altered the torso, in comparisant your version looks very feeble and uncomfortable.

yes, certainly. i quick edit pose and little touch her torso. ( sorry about that, couldt to be kept :)
your pose variation looks wrong balance(unstable) and wrong perspective, i chasing find pose balance.

Half work. Colors will be modified soon (its too orange now imho).
CC please. :)
-
It'sooking good, but I agree the colors are to orange right now, I also think there is a tad bit to much contrast with the shadows and the basic skin tone, could jsut be a saturation problem though.
