I don't think I've drawn this much clothing detail tbh
 
Here's some art pieces I've did the past couple of months. (Sorry that the rendering on the painted ones aren't that good I'm still very new to painting)

Posting some oldish art since I have very little from the past couple years. I feel like I need to start with the basics over again because I feel very “stiff” with the angles and poses I do.

.... Fucking finally finished this, after many, many, many fixes. There's still tons of shit to nitpick, and I kind of gave up on the coloring near the end (note the giant pink gradient covering up the coloring in the back) but I'm putting it down and calling it done because getting it to my desired state of completion is beyond my current skill level.

Did learn a lot doing this though, mainly that I REALLY need to just sit down and draw a fuckton of anatomy from reference, because trying to bullshit dynamic poses out of thin air without a proper understanding of anatomy is a lost cause.

To be honest, I'd say your biggest problem is less anatomy and more foreshortening- how the human body distorts with perspective. I can tell what you were going for here, but my initial impression was that she was running with a doll in tow. Don't feel too bad. Foreshortening is one of, if not the most, complicated things you as an artist will ever learn. But once you get that skill, it'll be yours for life. Here and here are two fantastic foreshortening tutorials for beginners.
An artist is like a shark- they must keep moving forward. or sink to DeviantART's level. One of my art teachers once said that the human body is the most complicated thing an artist can draw, which is why an artist must learn to draw it first. Fortunately, you seem to have a passion for art and are willing to plug away at it until you get it right, which puts you far and away above most artists with threads here. Go for it; you'll be surprised at how much a month of dedicated effort improves your art.

Ah, yes, foreshortening is definitely something I also need to look into on a technical level. I actually got back into drawing after posting some of my old stuff in the art critique thread here, and that's also the main feedback I got then - and I saw a dramatic improvement by just implementing the basic concept (exaggerating positional size difference) but never actually looked into the proper technique.

Also, funny thing about art-Youtube I noticed, there's pretty much two different genres: you have your actual professional artists with jobs in the industry who make videos giving art tips or talking about techniques who are legitimately interesting and enlightening to listen to, and then you have the tumblr trash who spend more time talking about tumblr trash drama than actually talking about art.

Proper technique is always worth looking into. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing well.
As for YouTube, always stick with the professionals. Leave the Tumblr trash alone (unless they're thread-worthy, of course.)

Another study made for college. To be honest, all the drawings I've made recently are weeb shit and I'm noticeably getting worse at drawing lol. Still, painting is comfy.

While I would normally draw original content, I figured playful edits would be fine enough. Made some custom avatars for myself just for the seasonal changes, though I'm bound to make a few more. 👀
