So this time I have refined a bit the hands anatomy and other small changes. As I said I also started bloking the clhothing really quick in Marvelous designer. This helps me to choose what style to follow so next step is to research all I can about that clhthing style. Will try to find out some sewing pattern and proper way to do it. Going slow but in a good way.
refs:
Following diferent styles of wearing robe this is what I have done.

Blocking:

Im not already decided for what to go, I like the second one with black t-shirt and the last one, with the yellow robe and black t-shirt falling out. Maybe before doing the final ones I will do another bloking with the character posed meditating to see how looks better.

I posed the character to almost the final pose and I have done the pants in Marvelous designer. I decided to do anakaya style pants, wich are traditional in japan. The final pose is going to be the charcater floating while meditate, so just the arms and head are remaining.
Next step maybe will do a proper retopo before go futher with clhothing.

Getting close to what I am looking for. This few days I have been
working on the clothing, trying different ways to wear the robe and
jacket, and this the result. Is not finish yet, because I want to adjust
it a bit when the character will be full posed, but is almost there.

I have been working a lot on the scene and a mini environment. Finally I think I will go for a really simple ground and grass to maintain all the focus on the character.
Here is the result of these days, with a lot of work remaining for the last days of challenge.
