So what do you think about the template this far?^^

maybe you should make the feet into rounded edged right angled triangles, it kinda hard to explain, give me a sec and i draw summit

God. No! that wouldn't be necessary.

Question: Is this for a side-view game? Because if not it's the wrong perspective :S

Well no, it is not.
Then what should i change to make it right?

Right now it's as though we're looking at it straight on, but normally the perspective is 3/4. Take a look at this for an example.

There's not a whole lot that needs changing. We should see scalp (since we see none currently), and a top-down view of the feet. Also we should see a little more shoulder (since we're "looking down" on them), the face should be nudged downward via perspective, and the hands should have a little more of a top-down perspective as well.

First off, I know the template is aiming for a more humanlike feel than spritish, so you need to get some anatomy features correct.
Women breast are not that perky, let alone small, well I guess some are, but that is besides the point. What i'm trying to say is that they should be lowered, cause at the moment it looks like they are connected to her shoulderblade. And not the upper ribcage and chest.
Here is a muscular picture I found on the internet as a reference.

Do you see how much lower they are on the body?

Anyways moving onto the feet, the human body can have a natural 45 degree space between the heels and big toes of each foot when standing still. So if you spread them apart while she is standing, you may get a better outcome than a forward facing you'd get while walking. Also when they are spread apart the standing pose will look much more natural in my opinion.
