Basically this is to go with the noob enviroment challenge, but it was off topic there so I decided to make a thread for it.
So I decided I was going to make a character over the week end, and I was browseing the internet for a concept, when I found a message on my face book from "Facebook user", it didnt have a link on their name so I got no idea who sent me it, but this is it:
It was sent to me in July, idk who sent it, anywho im modeling it, useing references off the internet and some of Troy's (Haz's) artwork as reference box modeled a base mesh:
And yeah its crap, but oddly enough I spent more time on it than sculpting, tomarrow I plan to change that, this is the sculpt:
The two main references I used where-
For the hips and:
For everything else, both of those being done by the wonderful Troy, seriously need to check him out,
http://www.hazardousarts.com/Main.htm For woman he is imho untouchable.
Now for my model, its far from complete, gotta change some things, I think the rear end should be slightly larger and less flat. Also though their not shown, the hands and feet are still just as they are on the base model, though smoothed and formed a little bit. The arms don't look very functional atm. As for the chest I know shes pretty flat chested, this is mainly for two reasons, first the suit would hold that in pretty good, and second because though she is highly Stylized, she is not Sexualized, that is one thing I do not want. Think Elizabeth Shaw from Prometheus.
I was wondering, any chance that someone knows a free place to host images that aren't messed up once they're uploaded?
Yeah... thats the end for day one of my Space Lady.
Edit: Final edit for the day, night y'all.

Why not cite where its from and/or take ownership in it if its yours?
Now that I look at it again idk why I thought it was just the image linked to me, I just clicked it and downloaded it, in any case, I am not Inkertone.
Are you planning on making a head under the helmet or just the helmet? I would try and get a temp helmet on ASAP. IMO it might throw off your proportions if you add it too much later.
I feel like the forearms are a little long. And the Hands are pretty tiny.
Ok @_gir and @ysalex, scrapped the suit, went back to before I started working on that (kept a save from then thank God). So I re sized the torso some, to make the upper body slightly larger, made the hands slightly larger (Thanks nyx, but I think I still need to make the arms shorter, maybe even more so now >.<), and detailed them some, cleaning up some flaws there, also all over her I added a bit more fat/muscle in some places such as the biceps, hips, shoulders, calfs, and a few other places that I don't remember, mainly to try and give her a bit more realistic look, as before her arms could not function in real life. What do you guys think? here's the original body before I started changing it, for reference.
Now that I look at it, I did something to the back, idk what happened, need to fix that... in any case thoughts crits ect? thanks for helping me out guys.
You don't want me drawing on your pics cause I am b-grade, but here goes.
Some of your references don't match up but for the most part the main one has its booty popping about as much as my paintover. So fix the profile and re-post, and don't even bother with the arms until you have the torso/legs nailed.
I also removed her arms so yall could do better paint overs in the future, and here is the pre-change version for reference.
Cheers.
I tried another paintover while keeping in mind you wanted her, "petite"
The proportions are that of a 140lb 5"11 female that desperately needs to eat a hamburger.
