Description That title just dawned on me out of nowhere while coloring this. And check it out, I looked up what the actual cover of Octopussy looks like just now: [link] - freaky coincidence, no? LOL that movie came out like two years before I was even born.

Anyway, just Del and Zen. I wanted another crack at getting their body types right after I messed up their last pic. Thought about adding their guns but it go way too messy but I gave Del her trademark knife - her outfit looked weird without it. Coloring is a little wonky and Del's eyes are way too huge but all in all I like it.

Della Rae Landau and Zen Love belong to me and are featured in I.T.

You're improving, but a few things really stand out as being problematic.

You've gone too far the other way in so much as eye iris size. First you had these itty bitty irises swimming in a sea of white, now there's hardly any white at all. Finding a middle ground will help you. I actually laughed when I saw the shorter one I was like "Holy shit she's Fremen. SPICE MUST FLOW!" lol

Ankles are better. However, the taller one's foot position is all messed up. It looks like her foot is rolled inward and her ankle is about to snap. Also, the line of the outside of the leg you've drawn looks more like the line down the back of the leg. The effect is making them both look pidgen toed like their legs are rotated inwards.

The shape of the hip and thigh is way weird. I don't know what that arc from the waist to the knee is supposed to be, but humans aren't shaped like that. It's like there's no hip or no thigh, it's just one long bow shape from the waist to the knee. The pelvis sits about the crotch and then the leg tapers, giving a hip then legs that hang off the pelvis bone. It doesn't just round out like a big parentheses.

The knees aren't quite as tiny, but could still be bigger. Still it's improving.

Anyway it is getting better. I'd say keep going with realism and real anatomy for a bit. Look at bones and muscles and the shapes they make. That seems to be your biggest trouble, you seem to have a lot of trouble with how bodies, limbs etc are shaped.
