I think her head is a little small compared with the rest of her body, the size of the hands is (mostly) the same size as the face, but here I have the impression they're slightly larger. Also her foot is large compared with hands and face. (In other words, the perspective is a little extreme)
For the folds of her clothes I think it's easier to use a reference, I do when I need details. In classic arts you can have sharp outlines for clothes (the black dresses with heavy shoulders and thin waist) or the folds painted on top of a natural body (Botticelli) with details in highlight. (Pearls, flowers, ribbons)
Hope this helps :) I already like the drawing very much, especially her face, it has the canon Luna calm view on the world.
Thank you for your lovely comment- your making me want to draw (even it makes me afraid to mess it up..) So I think I need to develop a foot fetish *g* thank you- your suggestion does help and yeah I think practising drawing feet is a good idea ^^ I actually like the small head and the big hands, too but I think it does look better when I make the hands a tiny bit smaller- though I definitely need to make the front leg smaller. Your right about the face it's a bit cartoonish. It was the last thing I drew and I had some trouble with it. Luna is not going to have my face.. Well, I'll see how to handle it next time. Maybe I need to make some face sketches so I'll get a feeling for the face ( and references surely would help). It's a bit difficult to make a picture of me in that pose and the last time (I used the mirror of my aunt which is quite cool cause of being huge) I was in undies and don't want my younger sister to take a picture of me like this *lol* I hope the next time I'm drawing this it turns out well, too
