Holy sh*t you're kidding me!! :O
I know the person that told you to do this!!! xD
This is one of their demon puppet dudes! :D
It's actually quite interesting, though I'm not really one to say since I don't have much experience with 3-D modeling :/
But yeah, they told me about the drawing she gave you to use as reference to make this. I think she also gave you some others of the same person.
Have you tried using z-brush and maya or whatever? A friend of mine uses it and they do amazing 3D stuff...
