Hey there. Nice concept you have. The way you colored it makes it seem like a disney cartoon one too hehe. Ok so here are some things I notice base on your concept. The model's cheeks are kinda puffing out and to the lower part of it, the area seems pushed back so the cheek area and side area faces make it seem like shes smiling unlike your concept. But i dont know, maybe youre working on that right now. But good job! When i finish my other projects I will attempt to create a woman too! user added image

Coming along great. The butt looks like a good shape and the breasts are actually tear shaped and not baloons. I have a sujestion on the face. Run the edge loop around the mouth from the check as I draw on the picture in blue. If you run it down the jaw you will almost certainly get a crease that you do not want.

- the big "bump" in her back...that is the vertebral column (???? i don´t remeber it in english......in portuguese we call by "Coluna Vertebral"), i made if soft and now it´s more feminine....really soft
well i won´t post this images cause i know you can imagine what i changed....so i´ll just post again with the head...ok? see you soon!

The body looks really good. One thing I noticed is that the Groove in the spine and to the crack in the butt are not usually connected. There is a spot that form a triangle flat spot on the lower back of a women. The piont of the triangle aims down. By the way. Is that you in your avatar? The natural form of the body leads me to beleive you are a women, even though you have not said. By the way. What are you going to have exposed? It helps top give you advice. No reason to work on definition where it will be covered with cloths.
