good start :)

but try to get some references for her anatomy, arms don't just come out of the body, whats with shoulders?
Her head looks good so far, but some areas seem to be a little too sharp

keep the good work :)

It looks much better with a smile but you might want to make the eyes 'smile' as well. I am assuming that you want to make it look happier so my suggestion is make the brow line more relaxed where it meets the nose bridge. If you cover the bottom half of the face it lookes like its frowning...just my opinion ;) hope it helps! I'll be waiting for an update!:)

Since i wasn't happy with the helmet at all... i now decided to do some changes.
So now it will look something like this instead:

Hi sir manfred,

hope you´ll understand this as constructive:

the eyes are to large or the eyeball is a bit too far
out of the head

the ears seem very flat from the side

the skull is a slight bit too deep

in general, the face looks very harsh and frustrated,
probably because the creases around the eyes, nose
and mouth are to harsh - girls are soft

here mouth is to small to look sexy. the nostrils are too.

If you like, I´d recommend you get hold of a Vogue magazine,
or if you prefer something less subtile, a hustler.
These mags are filled with good (retouched) photos
that can give you an easier start on

*what makes girls look sweet*

I´m not sure which program your using, in Maya there´s
a tool called *average vertice*, basically it´s smothing adjacent
vertices on selected polys - making creases and bumps soft
(without subdividing/meshsmooth/tesselating)
at the cost of some lost volume and detail when you overdo it.

The inner eyebrow area could use some of this.

I´d scale the nose and mouth larger, move the eyeball a bit
back into the head and try an *average vertices* for a start.

But you´ll probably find your own good workflow

I like girls that can take care of themselves. And she looks it!
some ideas:
The tanks needs valves! Get a huge valve or something high-tech on top of the tanks.
The boots need a powersource. Or something to be conected to.
The "cyber eye"... lose the light. I would be irretated as hell after three seconds having that thing glaring near the eye. make the lens itself look like a blue back-lit watch instead. :)
A large utilety belt... nuff said.
other than that is beyond me.

(coolt att fjällräven fortfarande håller)
