First thing I need to point out would be your picture size. It's probably a good idea to reduce sketch or lineart picture files to under 800 pixels in width and height for gallery purposes... That is, unless you intentionally want to show people your highest resolution size so that they can do actual color collaborations with it.
Anywho, I also get the feeling that you're trying to express lines by stroking on it again and again and again, like the first circle here [link] This is actually not a good way to render shapes, especially round ones, because they will become distorted from so many /precisely calculated strokes/. It seems you're having troubles drawing very round, curvy, distorted lines so you depend on the technique provided by the first circle to help you draw out curves. Don't worry, this isn't a bad sign (heck, I've recently been corrected from doing that as well) and the habit can be easily fixed. If you see the second circle, try to draw one whole circle and constantly draw over it, lifting and putting down your pencil again after each entire circle drawn. This is to get used to drawing proportionate curves, to welcome this action to your wrist so it can masterfully produce these distorted lines without fail. After, say, 10-20 circles, try drawing individual ones side by side and compare, like the third circle. You'll see that you can now /breathe/ circles, without having the fear or insecurity you've had before like how the first circle is drawn.
The next thing I'd point out is the proportion, but... I'll wait until you respond to this comment so that I won't 'bombard' with everything at once. I feel that criticism is better learned while concentrating on one problem at a time.
Anyway, hope to hear form you soon!!
I really like the p.o.v. of the character and I really like the overall anatomy. I should point out though that the lower lip seems to be a little slanted in the opposite direction. I believe the right should be a little bigger and the left side a little smaller as it goes away from the person viewing it.
The hands look real good, better than what I can do with hands. lol.
But yeah, keep up the good work

Your "worms-eye" perspective is very ambitious (seeing as it is your first). I take it in context of the assignment this means you're gearing to expand your horizons.
The actual foreshortening looks believable, and overall the "solidness" of her is pleasing (heh heh boobs). I agree with Nikae about her lips though. Lips curve outward, and from that perspective you would see it pointed forward instead of down. Did you use a specific reference?
The difficulty I have with this is that her pose is nearly impossible. Because it is a sketch, it isn't so obvious at first, but from how she is standing she looks like she should fall backwards. Her unseen feet appear to both be in front of her as she is squatting. If you're not quite finished with this sketch, I'd suggest moving one of her legs so that her foot can support her in that position.
But really I love that right hand.... I will be sad if you finish this and erase those beautiful construction lines. XD

I lost my leg recently... and it reminded me of the time I lost my leg in the War.
