The anatoym is WAY off.
The right ear is too big and the left ear shouldn't stick out of the hair like that -which looks strange-, the arms look like they have different lengths and are shaped in a weird way, the mouth... no the whole face just looks off, the pose is off balance and she doesn't really look like she's standing on ground...
At least you've got the boobies right... somewhat :P
Does scaling an image blur it?

Given the similarities, you can use this as reference.

Update:

I Redid the ear, right arm and some background...
Some of the hair on her right was removed because it looked unneeded, that also made her ears less weird.
Edited the ear a little as well so that has the right perspective.
Also made her rigght arm a little shorter because that looked to long/weird indeed.
And finally i did a quick background sketch to show why she is in that position...
C&C's still welcome! Come on guys!  :mean:

I would definitely recommend looking at some real boobies before continuing with this piece.  They appear to extend directly off her collarbone right now.  The black outlines are not adding anything, and the shading is very bland.  You need more hues and a more clear light source to save this one!

Update:

This is an update on the background...
Maybe you are right, but i found out im terribly bad at shading while doing this project...
Her boobs do seem to be placed a little to high but thats because she has her arm under them and she is leaning forward...
Will try to work on that tho :)

Some suggestions on anatomy.

Most of her limbs seem too rounded and joints aren't very visible. I've placed her breasts further down on her chest and made the right leg more visible for comparison. A bit more dynamic shape on the tail and some alternative light use. Not very polished, but I'm not able to fix it up at this time.

I also noticed that your 'cat' has both legs bent in the same position, which is not very common in a run. Legs usually have are in slightly opposite positions during full movement. Personally, I feel the rocks you added makes her more stationary, like she's balancing on top of them and is about to fall over.

Anywhoo, keep it up.  :y:
