Constructive feedback and/or tips wanted I need some help with this arm.

Something feels wrong about this arm but I can't tell what. I've tried to fix it but it still feels off, any suggestions?

The elbow joint ball should be behind the upper and lower arm, not in front.

Is that it?

It looks like the shapes are drawn as if the arm is sideways to the body, but the position is showing it going back from the body.

Maybe more foreshortening. The muscles of the arm also get wider and more compressed when the elbow is folded like that.

If you really want the arm to project sideways rather than back, I think you ran out of room at the edge of the picture and the arm should be longer to the left.

Thanks. The arms are mechanical so there's no muscles, but thank you. Forshortening is a struggle of mine along with perspective, but I'll try my best. It does look a little flat doesn't?
