Hello Hello Interesting character! You are headed in the right direction; you just need to approach figure construction more methodically. I would advise beginning with a mannequin. It will help you understand how each component interacts and overlaps with the volume of a human shape. It decomposes into basic geometric shapes (spheres, cylinders, triangles, and squares) and is typically easy to comprehend. In any situation, drawing people will not be a problem for you. The Loomis approach is one way to learn it.He does a great job of outlining how the human body twists and what is crucial to understand before posing the mannequin. Pay close attention to the overlaps and key body parts when moving the torso or pelvis. You can also incorporate fold practice because you mentioned a character's attire. Finally,I would avoid cropping limbs since they tend to look uncanny. If you want specific framing of a character, create little thumbnails of scene you want to capture,along with movement and emotions of a character. Hope it helps! | Artwod Feedback
