Making some animated battle sprites for a game based on my comic. Here's some attemts at the base for my character Lara. I can't seem to get the hair right, and something still bothers me about the clothing, but I can't figure out what. Two different versions, both missing footwear and with only one of the wings visible (I'm still try to decide if the other would be visible, and where.

Any advice or suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!
Edit: Added a newer version with tweaked hair/wings, added footwear.
Also: I used an alternate idle pose from a halfkaiser template for the base pose.
That's very good. I think you should use the hair from 2, the wings from 1, and everything else from 3.
The hair from 2 really bothers me, so I think I'm sticking with 3. I don't really like any of the wings, myself. #3 has the most accurate wings as far as how I draw her, so I may try to update them.
Here's some more. I don't like the third frame though.

Thoughts?
it looks good did you make them from scratch or did you use one of those blank person things?
Understandable. Those are very nice, by the way.
Banisher: The original pose in the very first sptire way up top was an one of Tana's alternate idle pose for the Female Halfkaiser template. Everything else was done by me in that style though. Poses aren't so bad once you start meticulously shifting pixels around.
I'm still having trouble with wings. But here's my attack and default skill poses:

Behold my ability to reuse things I've already drawn!
I don't like the third frame of the sword swinging effect. Those extra lines shouldn't be there. To be truthful, you should probably just redraw it.
