I posted the WIP of this quite some time ago. Finally got the time to finish it. I really happy with the way the dress turned out. Not so happy with the feet though.

great work!!

you are right the feet are a bit odd, probaly because of the fingers.
i think the ankle(??? is that right?) is a kinda wierd, don't know how to explain.
i could be wrong

I'm thinkin now that if I'd gone with her toes spread a little it would've looked better. She be all painted in Photoshop, half in 6 and half in 7:) Thanks fer the comments guys.

I think I know what's wrong with the feet. It's not so much that the toes should spread out, it's that it looks like there's no weight on her feet at all, making them look unnatural.

You should have the feet under her head in order for her to be balanced... right now, she'd topple over. So if you moved them over to the left a bit, that might help. Also, your arms are so well defined and tense, perhaps add a little more definition - the back leg is completely flat and the toes aren't flexed at all. The way her fingers are bent and upper muscles are shown, I would think her whole body's ready to jump at a second. The toes seem too inactive.

Also, the bottom of the dress doesn't seem to flow around her legs right the way it's rendered, but once you move the feet, it'll have to change anyway.

This could be really cool, just fix the feet I'd say.

It looks good, but feels like it would have been better had you spent some more time. I'd be interested to see a background for her

really kewl piece, i like the overall look, it reminds me somewhat of Brom's work. I think the problem is the foot thats farther in the back. Kinda looks like a stump. the bottom of her dress looks a lil weird to me but im probably just retarded cuz i cant find out what it is thats wrong. i'd like to see a floor too that could help the feet problem maybe. nice character design keep it up

Nice colours, interesting shading too. I like the wall texture aswell.

Yep definitely needs a floor. Some shadow under there to give her 'ground'. As for the feet anatomy, I'm glad to say I'm no expert! pong!

maybe Ian Jones is right, if you just add the floor the feet won't feel odd

forgot to say the arm is amazing
