The wings are too busy and distracting, IMO.
You COULD do without them (since she's a robot you could have like rocket boots or something), but if you really want to keep them I think they'll be fine as simply white/blue outlines. It'll look transparent on all stages and still imply enough without cluttering the overall composition

I also think you could do with less complex shapes/outlines--they'll save you in the long run once you get to animations
whipping up a WIP now one second

EDIT: Okay here

I tried to simplify/exaggerate a lot of the shapes--there were a few outlines that really didn't help for readability.
I gave her a neck of some sort because it looked very crowded there.
Also I don't think the darker shadows on legs/arms are crucial, because they're pretty much both visible. I think that's only necessary for a profile run (kind of like Ocks in my signature). More than anything, I defined the shapes a little better and removed unnecessary outlines. If you don't HAVE TO outline, try to find a better way.

Also, when doing animations, it's a good idea to consider animating the 'hair' separately. It'll make it much easier to make animations if you do the hair second. I'd try getting an animation down 'bald', if you will, and then add the hair for each frame (kind of like adding the cape for Bombergirl)
The hair should also be less symmetrically placed, especially if you have the head at that angle

feel free to use this if you need to o/
