I like it

Looking at the front pic though it looks like the legs are a bit small. Maybe make them taller and a bit more fleshed out.
Keep up the good work though user added image

yer have to have a play around when I get home.

They match the ref at the mo, but the angles on the photos not quite straight. How many heads up is a woman (scale wise)

is it 9 like a man or 8 ?? - can never remember

I think it is 8 for the perfect scale but it can be anywhere from 6-9. Also all you need to do is make the shins and feet a bit thicker and maybe lengthen them a bit more. Thats bout it though

she was just over 6.5 heads tail, so I made the legs sightly longer and reworked the boots aliitle as well. Also made them fatter in places like someguy said.

Cheers peeps 4 the help

she is now sitting 8 heads tail.

I dont know all this fuss for a bit that might not get seen in the final thing. - it`s all good though

update: added the coat but forgot that I needed to build the collar before rendering - oh well.

I think I`m going to be hard pressed to get another person done by the end of the challenage. going to have to put my thinking cap on. Want her finnished by 2mo so I can get my redisign for the plain done. I`m also moving some point this next week so thats more time lost. Better stop yacking and start modeling.

yeah, just as a precaution, you might want to definitely start focusing some time on the steampunk part of your entry! I'd hate for you to do such great work and not finish on time!

I love the style. Mabey don't fix everything? It looks good without fleshing or twisting this or that. I think doing that would be more a matter of style than of correctness. IMO anyway.

***edit***
the coat has waves in odd places though. Agian just opion so... no worried it still looks right.
