Painted the figure to see how it will all come together and for future reference for details. Here is also the initial idea of the alternative costume. I like having other types of materials in costume design, but at the same time fur doesn't scream frog to me. I might adjust the alternative costume further to see what else I can come up with.
This is the pose I decided on, this is a lower res base mesh I am using as a guide. She is supposed to be leap frogging over an object (probably a boulder) with her left hand nudging. Still undecided with the tongue, but I will try find a clever way to use it as a support for the figure as a whole.
