Please rate and comment, I need the feedback. :)

Some stuff you should know in case you download this:

facial expressions are limited due to low number of shape keys, I want to move on to some new projects so I won't make more shape keys for the face, on the other hand you can practice with shape keys by making more facial expressions
Armature and Mesh deformation is both used on the model, I got this idea from Blenrig, that stuff is just pure awesomeness I tried my best to make the mesh to deform good, but in some extreme poses you mught find that it's not deforming well.
I've added some information about the rig on the rig layer (Alt+2), and I tried to clean up the .blend as best as I could. I hope I didn't leave any garbage in there
There are 2 blend files, one has the rigged mesh, the other has the highres meshes. Both blend files are compressed so they might open slowly.

Giving credits for the textures:

Leather Denim, and textile (for shoes) textures are from http://webtreats.mysitemyway.com/
Sageo texture for the part of the sword and the sheat is from http://www.goodtextures.com/

Good modeling and even better posing! I would love to see her move!

My only remark is on the size of the file!

Thank you very much! :) And I am really sorry about the file size :( I forgot to write this in the description, but it is this large because of the high res meshes. I compressed them as best as I could because I wanted to include them.

I forgot to mention this and I feel like a jerk now :S I had some really great help from guys here at blendswap and I want to thank them for giving me tips. I would like to thank to MoreDread for his GIFs and theoschildkroet for the anatomy advices. Without them I couldn't make her look like this :D

I just want to report a bug with Internet Explorer. Whenever I click the download button in IE the page reloads forcing me to click the button for a second time. This flaw cost me twice as many megs for a single file. When I tried to download Kara which is 80mb it says that I have exceeded the download limit for the week even though I know that there was 93megs remaining.

I am sorry to hear that. :( You should contact the admins with this bug. What I can do for you is the following. Send me an email to cont_mike at yahoo dot com. And I can send the file in two parts to you via yousendit if this is ok with the admins and with you. This way you don't have to download it again.
