I like it a lot, but it looks like she's about to fall over for a couple reasons. When the feet are that close together, they need to be directly under the center of mass (the midsection of the body) to maintain balance. The upper body also is not quite vertical. The pose looks tilted and uncomfortable because of these things. Hope that helps! Later.

Thanks alot Sac, im glad you like it, though i wish i was as good as you guys, but your prolly a bit older than me (im 15). I actually put on the papaer that she cant support herself, so i might jest make her right leg (our left) directly under her so it looks better. Btw- what colors should i make the shirt and boots? Im thinking red or green for the shirt, or brown or green on the boots. Maybe dark purple or black hair. Well, thanks for the post(s), i will get more pics up as soon as i make em'

Its nice, but the chin looks a bit strange, maybe try erace the chin line , or just about with it, and maybe make her neck a little thinner. I think her face should be longer, maybe not ...

Rough coloring isn't a bad idea but I would suggest that you sketch out a few more drawings before moving on to anything inked or seriously colored.
I don't know what process you used to reach this point but I would stay away from spending too much time on a character drawing until the design is complete and you really like it.
All this rambling aside, I think her neck is too wide. Her chin is very short but I don't know if that is what you're looking for.

The head / neck looks odd to me. Like the head has been balanced on top of the neck, rather than joining on to it. The neck looks too long - especially with the extreme slope to the shoulders.

the neck is not only too long, but also too thick for the shoulders. the head is too big for the body, but a lot of cartoonish drawings have this kind of proportion. but that neck is waaay thick and long. also her upper leg (thigh) is very long. think about where her crotch is. the upper part of the leg should b roughly the length of the lower part of the leg. also, her elbows r either really low, or her waist is really high. u should b able to dig ur elbows just under ur waist, so lower her waist. shorten and thin up that neck too

other than that, i love this picture. she has a cute hairstyle and i like that outfit

I thank all of you alot, and agree also. I am really bad at proportions, so if anyone has a good site that teaches it (not just like 7 1/2 heads tall blah blah..) i would love to have it. I think i will work on the head and neck, and ill try to get a bigger drawing and put more detail in it, any suggestions on clothing, colors, ANATOMY, or anything like it, pleas tell me.
BTW- i also cannot draw muscles (mainly buff guys muscles) so if there are any sites with that also, let me know. Well, if u actually read all this thanks alot .
