Looking forward to posting w/ you all!

It's pretty hard to judge since you didn't post how it looks with the things that should be mirrored in place, the main thing that looks of now is the head, and the biggest problem I see is that the head, it shouldn't be that tall, this will probably come in handy for reference: http://www.lolking.net/models?champion=78

Hey there!
Thanks for responding
I don't really understand your point about how things should be mirrored in place ?
The head shape is quite difficult to achieve since it's squished on such an angle
Also, I've been using the lolking in-game model but I wanted to base the work on the splash art. The one you linked is very stylized, a lot of like Tristana from the game, but I wanted to create a more realistic looking version

I'm going to point an update just now 
Please let me know what you meant about the mirroring in place
I might have to do a quick sketch of what the character looks like  in orthographic view soon too

Adjustments:
-Started working on base for weapon

What I meant by mirroring is that it's hard to get a sense of how the character looks when it comes to balance when I can only see one arm, leg and ponytail.

+1
you can easily do that by picking the subtool you want to mirror > subtool master > mirror

BTW she looks much cuter in the last picture . cant wait to see more progress on this

Few things:
What is your plan with this character , is it gonna be a render or a low poly game mesh? Either way , it'd be wiser to just make it all symmetrical and then pose , at least imo.
Secondly , some of your forms are off especially on the face ,  yes the concept and model are at different angle but even so I think the forms or flow is off.
Thirdly , your resolution is waaaay to high. 2.4 million? Where is all that resolution? Dial that down and make sure the forms are in place before you amp that polycount up.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for responding!
My plan is to do a high render mesh of the character
Absolutely, those forms can be a bit confusing with her face especially on the angle
I'm working on it now to improve the shape and pulling down the res.
Thank you for your input
