I would have chosen a different pose and a different place to have her. I really would have liked to see this outside, but the blank wall works fine.

The sepia was a good idea because the original that you posted in the forums had waaay too much noise for it to be okay in color. Try a lower ISO next time. It's still distracting in this version as well.

You've got a great start there, it just needs some tweaking!

Now Sprite is a a cutie pie. I would had sat her on a stool instaed of the chair. However, her pose is so inviting that no matter what I am bumping it to 7

cool shot, but i think that the chair takes away a bit from the "sprite" and, hence, the magical aspect of the challenge.

too grainy - and why put the sprite on a chair: is there an allusion I am missing ?

I think this is a nice shot, but I find the negative space too distracting, and the contrast on the model herself a little light. I find it a little too grainy also, but that's just personal opinion, and you could have been going for that purposely, and it's not a score affecting gripe :)
