And this is where references come.

"but you already said that holy shit can't you see that there are no references for her oh my god"

And that's the part you are wrong. Referencing (how many times do I need to repeat this) is not about CARBON-COPYING the base drawing. It's about seeing the character as a whole, to deduce (not improvise, though that can work too) how she would look like if put into a fight. You may not have the right angle for the animations, but being an artist, it's your job to see any reference you can, imagine her as a 3D model in your head, and transcribe it in side view 2D. Is this hard? Yes, it is. But as you're working with few resources, there's no other way to make it without it looking terrible.

Zoran is also not the only character with this trait/personality. When her references are scarce, try sampling some from different characters with similar personality/body build. Hence why I suggested Roll. Not to make Zoran's feet huge, or Popeye arms. Just to see how CAPCOM animated it, and how a happy, innocent-looking girl would behave in a fight. This would also help anatomy as well, as despite her having different anatomy, they both still uses human anatomy logic to build her character. Read it even further.

I believe this will be my last tip for now. Figure it out for yourself now.

I do have to ask, how do you want us to be helpful?

You clearly want us to just be echoing the praise and criticism you already came up with yourself looking at the pics, and anything outside that box is being denies. However, we're not mind-readers, so we can't know what exactly you want us to repeat to you and please your ears.

Therefore, I advise a mirror. It'll give you the criticism you want.
