Since nobody ever replied to my other thread, I decided to make a new one.

Here's an update I made the hair and the hat and added some textures . I made the face texture myself. I made the hat by making a curved line and lathe-ing(I don't know how to spell that) it in the Y direction. The rest of the body are just colour textures. I'm going to make the neck and the little pink bat on the hat.

nice1, got one thing: I think the head is a bit to round, it should be 'longer'... (or am I totally wrong?)

Jehovahenker: OK I made the head a bit more square and added some more parts.

The only thing left for me to make is her backpack. If there is anything that I can improve on please let me know.

That looks like a decent start.  Do you want to keep the characters blocky?
The hat right now could go a bit further down on the head.  It doesn't seem as if it's actually tight on the head.  Instead it looks like it's about to fall off.
The ears could use a little work, they look like simple little bumps right now.  You seem to be doing pretty well on the texturing (though it's basic, it's still nice and precise.)

Yeah since they are blocky in the game. How do I improve the ears because I made them by extruding one face on each side of the head.

You can start by giving the ears more vertices around.  Instead of a simple cubic structure you can give it more form, which will give you more control and make it look less like a little bump in the side of the head.  Then you can give it depth.  Nobody's ears are simply flaps of skin sticking out, they indent to catch sound, so you can inset the face then intrude.

Use the cut tool!
The hat looks much better by the way.
