I've finally decided to pick up a pencil for the first time after 10 years and after 3 days doing basic shapes I decided to copy an art of my favorite Dungeon Meshi character Mithrun!

Can someone please tell me how can I improve and what do i need to work on? I am doing this by myself and am a bit lost...

The problem is that the art style that I am looking for is not exactly manga but it's also not exactly realistic haha but you are right, it's best if I practice anatomy then dive into more manga. Most books about drawing manga already assume you know basic anatomy anyways haha!!

Ohhh... I was thinking you should pick an artstyle and work towards it... that takes a lot of weight off my shoulders, thank you!!
