This is a sketch I did thinking about a possible story that reached my mind. Witches are involved, but it's a story concerning a warlock, so she is more of a supporting character/heroine. This is definitely not the finished design, It can be further perfected.

regarding my last comment, it may be hard to visualize how to make the body curve more without seeming unbelievable... practice will help you understand. Just keep working hard, and you'll see what I mean eventually, if you don't see it now.

p.s.- I'm not a master of dynamism either, but I can see lack of dynamism 9 times out of 10... I'm not claiming to be better or anything, just wanted to let you know!

I have no problem with the posing, but there are some things you may want to consider:

the way her neck is drawn suggests a head looking more down. But her hair feels like it was drawn with the mindset of a woman looking straight ahead in profile. Maybe you've intended for a more elongated head, though? I'm not quite sure.

Another thing that my mentor always points out is lack of dynamism. You've clearly indicated the curves of the body, but the drawing still looks stiff because the body still looks straight... exaggerating the curvature of the body so the chest and behind stick out more will enhance the dynamism and feminine traits of the character more.

Overall good job here!! Just be careful with the anatomical and dynamic aspects of your work... generally, exaggeration that is believable is best.

I'll take those suggestions to make a better peace. I'm still learning so thanks for pointing those things out. I need to improve on the connection of the neck and head as well as how they work together with the body. Thank you.

you are most welcome... again, I am no expert myself. The best way for you to learn is to find your own path, and only consider the plausibility of my words after you have done studies yourself... I don't believe I am a good teacher, but I do believe I can point out inconsistencies I see in work... which may give me a bad rep in the future...

You would benefit greatly from a mentor who can guide these studies... I really think that's the best way to go.
