thanks! i like 2 as well im just worried she might be too much and unfortently im not going for dwarf wife so she wouldnt fit my charecter so you helped me out a lot to know which one i should do on the right shes going to have a unicorn companion and i wanted to see her in a different pose besides standing.
@cedricgo thanks! that how i was feeling exactly
@couteleau.quentin thanks! i love your feedback, its what i like about her too,i will try a different weapon as you suggested (im still figuring that out :P)
Nice design, if youve not seen the film Brave the artwork for it might be some great referances for you. If you want a really neche scottish referance you could hide a bottle of buckfast in the illustration, like they did in the film trainspotting.

I agree with @prinzmoana, the horse's body doesn't look right. Do an image search for horses rearing as reference.
I like the dynamic pose, but from the position of her arm and hand (held towards the viewer, but with axe on the other side) it looks to me as if she's about to hit her poor unicorn in the head! Or at least clip its horn off.
Maybe stick the axe head on the other end of the handle for a downward strike?
