Sooooo I may have gone ahead and found myself drawing a sexy pinup of my superhero character OOPS

(... or at least, what my superhero character would look like if she weren't actually based off noodly awkward not-so-curvy-sexy me. Double oops.)

Gonna mark this one as "Moderate" for the time being, as I haven't drawn her clothes on over her body yet. xD

I just posted this over to SmartSnark on LJ looking for critique, so I figure I'll post the same here! Here's what I said over in SS, for anyone who might be able to help me out here:

"Sooo I've run into a problem with this sketch I'm working on (I'm gonna mark that NSFW, as although there isn't really nudity, I haven't drawn her clothing on yet so it... Looks kinda nudey, I guess). It's the first thing I've really sat down and put some effort into in what feels like almost a year, and for the most part I'm really happy with how it's coming out. I know there are some flaws, but for the time being there's a lot that I'm willing to overlook on this one while I try to get back into drawing.

However, that hand is really bothering me. I've always been really bad with hands, as well as super flimsy on arm lengths/proportions as well... But what makes this case even worse is that I can only partially see the problem with this one-- I keep having moments where I go "Yeah, it's fine enough, this looks great! :D" and then coming back to stare at it later on and going "Omg lol no what am I doing." Sometimes I look at it and think it's look fine; then I look again and think "Arm's too short, hand's too small, fingers are wonky"...

I've tried starting at myself in the mirror to get the pose right (that's how I got it to look the way it does now), I've tried digging up references online, and... Honestly, I'm a little stumped at how to fix it, so I'm coming to you guys for critique of all kinds. :c Save me, SmartSnark!

(Also, I'm not really sure how to place the character's wing, either-- I keep getting ideas, but as soon as my pencil hits the paper it just kind of goes all over the place and doesn't look right. xD Admittedly I really need to do a bit more studying on wing anatomy, but if anyone has suggestions in the meantime that would be awesome as well. <3)"

Sketch drawn by me in pink, and graphite 0.7mm mechanical pencils.
