I think this is the wrong way to go about a female character. The male and female form are actually quite different and slapping on some clothes does little to change that. I think it would be a better idea to start from scratch or at least a female character edited to fit the style of AT.

+1 Very well said. I could not agree more.

i will politely disagree.

i know that some dialogue in the story would need to be changed, but aside from that...
i think that changing too much will make it feel less like the AT we know
as for looks, just my opinion here - for the choice of a second gender...
the hero was born female, but the hero will still look like Andor.
[so basically, just references to gender: he, she, etc. would need to be changed]
more on "looks" the female form is obviously different than the male,
and the adjustments i have made are slow - but deliberate.
the next tweaks i was working on were hair, waistline, & collar bone...
all things that are definitively masculine or feminine.
all that being said, i was just having a little fun!

if Oskar hates it too - we can move it to the tavern!

EDIT: updated image on first page!

+1 for losing the boxing glove/bag.
There are already other (masculine) pictures around here without that bag, and I like them.

There are lots of elements your talking about that have been changed (waistline and general shape), I think it looks like a female (I'd bed it). And, most importantley, It's definateley keeping with the 'Andor's Trail' look and feel (not to be mistaken with touch and feel).

Definitly a lot better now! She doesn't look like a guy in drag anymore.
Nice work!
