New character c: She's the prize for FlatterSlay the winner of my art contest. Congrats and thank you <3

This was my first anime-style model and it was pretty fun. Personally I'm mostly attracted to pixar-style characters in 3d, with round stylized forms and realistic shaders, but somehow I end up doing a lot of 2d style characters lately. It's fun too, figuring out the shading and different lineart styles. In the end i didn't end up investigating the options as much as I wanted but maybe in some next model.

I made a little step by step process for her because I always end up with too many WIP files. I couldn't fit a lot of text in this one because I didn't want it to end up 4 images long again. Maybe it'll be interesting anyway though.
I wrote a bit more about the process here if you're curious:
I mostly wrote about the shaders and lineart.

Modelling wise, I tested a new idea of mine and blocked out the body from a bunch of cubes, each piece and joint was a seperate cube. Then I joined them all and began smoothing and adding detail.
Mostly I wanted a very regular shape to work well with the shading, and it did end up very simple. I think it's okay here, but I definitely want to start adding more details to my wireframes.
I'm also hoping to find a good way to attach a hand to an arm with 8 vertices xD I love using 8 on the arms but the hand needs 10 at the end to connect cleanly. So I end up with all sorts of crazy things at the wrist.

The clothes were very simple, I think I modelled the ruffes from a circle and scaled some vertices down to make the right shape. Then I just extruded the skirt and shaped it up.
Hair is modelled from curves and there's nothing interesting about it. For the face I used lots of references from pinterest for the topology since it was my first time modelling an anime face.
