Ok, so Dan gave me a crit about the last post, and here is what he told me:

"the design you had for her before, where she was kind of leaning back and it looked like she was calling the fire high before her, had a lot more power and mysticism to it. if you could use the photo to tweak your original drawing, i think that would be for the best. the new piece with her bent over looking down makes the magic less impressive. the body turning up forces an idea of wonder and 'wow!' on the viewer, as if shes conjuring something tall and impressive- looking down feels almost like a disservice to the original. again- photos are great, and use them to inform good ideas- but dont change a good design just cause the photo is different. use her face details and the lighting scenario, sure, but that first sketch had a lot more power."

So, I fixed it again :)
Hope it looks better now.
