This pic has given me a lot of heartache and frustration.
I inked it so that you kind folks could take a look at it and tell me how badly I fucked up.
Don't hold punches and please don't fav this without saying something about it (I know there are a couple of you that will anyway because you're not reading this) Normally I don't ask something like this, but I'd really appreciate some help because legs are evading me lately. I've scoured the net for some example poses but couldn't find any.
A redline would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Y I OUGHTA! Yeah, I agree, and normally I don't get frustrated over work like this. Hell, I don't even know why I am but those legs taunt me and if I'm going to move to the next stage I should want to see them better drawn and apparently I'm not capable of doing it. I feel like I've got artist's whiskey dick!
For leg references, do these help any:

Also, great work. I still have to check your journals, but if you do commissions I'd definitely want to take one from you when you have time.

It isn't awful at all :) You're really too hard on yourself *pat*
The only faults that I can seem to stem from how the left character's hips are cocked. Consequently, her hip and thigh are not distinct on her right leg (just a single curve to represent both without separation) and on her left leg her hip seems too distinct from her left thigh, as if she were too thin. It gives the impression that her left thigh is thinner than her right thigh. However, perhaps when you add definition by painting it that'll also change perspective (if her leg is meant to be turned out, perhaps). Otherwise, maybe soften the hip a wee bit on her left side and create a bit of a divot for her hip on her right side? Would that work?
