Three criticisms
Vase should be magnetic
Foot floats above pillow instead of resting on it
The most fixable issue is the irises are a bit too small.

Nothing egregious.

This is a statue that fits into my collection area, but I just don't like this pose.
Wait for the next one.

I thought about the foot quite a bit (this is my life after 14 + months in quarantine at home LOL). I don't think she would be pointing her toes the way she is if the foot was relaxed/resting on a pillow. That's my rationale anyway.

Totally agree about the eyes.

The irises are too small, and maybe nobody agrees with me, but I dont like the bright red lipstick, I dont know a single female under 75 that wears bright red lipstick, should have went with the original art and had natural colored lips

Really, I know plenty of women under 50 that still use deep red lipstick on occasion. Granted none of them are an alien princess though...that I know of.

Re: bright red lipstick-

I see it occasionally, but not often.

It takes some imperious chutzpah to pull it off well.

If I have one design quibble it would be about the pasties. I would have liked to have seen something either a little more exotic in design rather than so on-the-nose(nipple)- but honestly would have preferred something else entirely like a sheer x-strap of fabric. I think the ERB description is vague enough to support more than just the one common visualization.
The nipple pasties remind me a little too much of a 50's era stripper.

But it's a minor point, that pales next to the statues other merits. One thing that very much appeals to me is how close this is to classical figure sculpture in general.
Ditch the gun and the color, and I could easily see this cast in bronze or sculpted from marble and sitting down the hall from the pieta in a museum.

...and the ruby of her beautifully molded lips shone with a strangely enhancing effect.

If anything the proto was even brighter red, so...

No issues for me either way though.
