Adding more girth to the feet may help with balancing the overall appearance, but then your character may start looking more Minotaur-like rather than giraffe-like. The knuckle-dragging style arms may also be throwing off the design because when I see something like that I start getting the impression that the character is more goblin or troll-like.

If you insist on making all the limbs long I would recommend throttling back the girth of her main body. Make it smaller to make the rest of her look really lanky and awkward.

As for another request thread: I've been thinking about starting one up, but I just haven't had the time to work on any personal projects.

I see where you're coming from as far as the arms are concerned (goblins and trolls). However, I think maybe the solution lay in making the limbs more lanky (less muscular) and more bony, like the counterpart's inspiration, and exaggerating the arms more.

I blocked out a second revision (no details)...
