Here's an update. I tried rendering the hand as best as I could in that position. I also reworked the shading on the torso and abdomen. Overall, going for a cleaner look. It was getting quite messy.

Connecting the leg & pelvis was a good idea.

Maybe hint at another finger?

The darkest shade in the skin tones looks green & a bit sickly when surrounded by the other colors. I would try reddening it.

Here's an edit of Sherman's edit. The far leg looks awkward when it isn't angled any. Everywhere else I tried to open up a bit more with the brightest skin tone. Her extended leg is wonderful. The extended arm is rigid and I didn't really address that.

Hey. Found some time to consider the more recent edits and work on this piece a bit more. At this point, I'm not satisfied with the rendering of the hands; therefore, edits are appreciated. Thanks to Atnas for the great insight on the background foot/leg. Same to 7321551 Re: the hands.

Neither arms or legs match in length and mass. Try not looking at it for a while and then... looking at it. Hopefully you'll see it.

Wow, yes. Both limb pairs have hermit crab syndrome. To get fresh eyes on it, sometimes you can mirror it horizontally or just turn it upside down.
Face is rather masculine. Almost looks likes a mustache there.
Sherman's edit adds some nice torso shading. I like it. Glad you ditched gaga.

Yup I see it. Sort of taking some time to figure out what to do about it. Probably been looking at it for way too long, though.

Sorry about the double post~ New version:



I thought about a few things and decided to make a few changes anatomically: face, torso, breasts, legs, feet, hands.
Essentially, I saw the hermit-crab syndrome as a product of multiple problems and made adjustments in order to remedy them.

Hopefully the changes are improvements.
Edit: the dithering is sort of preliminary and lame. I suck at dithering so help would certainly be welcome in that department.

While she seems to abide the laws of gravity now, the pose itself lost its flow. It's tends a little to what arne calls a flyswatted pose in his tutorial:



The original pose was a nice start in terms of dynamic posture, and it might be a good idea to keep that. Here's an edit addressing that as well as some proportional fix-ups (unfortunately, the volumes of the extremities still don't match in the latest version), but I'm not exactly an authority on anatomy myself.
