Something I'm working on for the iPhone/Wii crowd. Nice change of scene from normal mapping. Thinking about straightening out the UVs for the lips, too jaggy.

made me wanna try something like this. pure diffuse.
even 10 year old girls have boobs nowadays.
and either her arms are too short, or her hands are too big.
still very nice though

Cute!
Her hands also come off a bit manish due to the size, but that might just be me. I imagine if you'd make those any more slender, you'd lose the child-like feel to them.
edit: oh, you posted an update! The new lip is much better.
Agreed with MightyPea about the skintone.The shoes could use some painted spec too, if they're leather. Also the silhouette of the arms look a bit plain, some thickness around the elbow and fatter palms might fix that.
GG on the texture and modeling.
Really fun stuff!

About the UV space, I've been bitten before, so I made sure to have at least 2 pixels around each island. The average width in the tightest spots is about 4 pixels. Actually there's a mistake on the inner hair piece, that's the leaf-shaped UV in the middle, it's too close to the island below it so I'm getting a hair-thin dark brown edge. But it's pretty minor.
I'm point-sampling in these shots, so I could probably just get away with a 1-pixel space around each (2 pix total). But I wanted to make sure it would also work when mipped and filtered. Makes a difference when the character is smaller on screen.
on posing... if she's leaning back that far, then you might want to add some twist in her spine and hips and definitely some side rotation. also - i think that her shoulders are tilted, but it's kind of hard to tell... maybe more tilt? the rope, her pulling arm and her shoulders will pretty much be a straight line if she's pulling hard enough to be leaning like that. and angle the back leg outwards a bit.
with the playful look of the character, i feel that the pose should be at least a bit exagerated. i would tie a rope to something and pull on it like you have her posed.
overall, a great character. keep it up!!
