Cheetara - Character redesign

[Hellhammer]

Hello everyone, id like to show something im working on. Its a character redesign that i plan to use for modeling purposes. I wanted to try to keep a single thread for everything, but in other forums i wasn't very lucky to get much comments, so ill finish this concept here and start another thread in the3d section. So far im basically working trying to keep functionality on the character, hence i don't want any fancy widgets or too extravagant weapons, trying to not get too far from the original concept, which was rather simple, but efficient.

Mainly, she will keep her staff, and ive thought about some melee, claw-like weapon (just a random sketch so far), along with a more sophisticated look overall. Any critics regarding both concept and technique are very welcome. With this i want to practice a full character design workflow, from scratch sketching to final 3d model completion. Hopefully ill make it XD. Thanks for viewing. Heres the current state of my 2d concept:
