Invaloid - WIP. Critiques, please?

I just started using a tablet, and am working with it today. That, and I don't have much experience drawing children. The oval shape is part of the composition (text will be added on the outside at completion).

I need a little help with advice on perhaps how to use the tablet, but I know it's early in the picture for that since it's unfinished line art. Does anyone have thoughts about that, the composition, or how to draw a young girl? Thank you!

EDIT: Updating with work periodically.

Well, one thing that hurt me in the beginning was that I'd forgotten to force proportions on the wacom, so I got a 1:1 result on it. I have no idea if you have had this issue, but that was one of mine. And play around with pressure sensitivity, you shouldn't have to press too hard to get the result you want

Well, I'm really a beginner at perspective and stuff myself, but I thinkt he horizontal line should be a bit higher? The factories, or houses or whatever they are, should start at her elbow I think

on children and anatomy I'm sorry I cannot help you XD

Progress report. Thank you so far those who have responded! I haven't really accented a few things, so it might be confusing, but know I have been keeping your thoughts in mind.
