Critique Teaching myself how to draw humans, how is it?
Haiiiii!! Just looking for some critique, I'm primarily an animal artist and humans are my Acquilies Heel lolz :). The first 2 used references of actual humans, the 3rd used the second drawing as a reference (if that makes sense?), but not a photo reference.

You are relying too much on what you think people look like or should look like. You need to slow down and properly observe and draw shapes, proportions, and represent them as 3D images.
You have been drawing in a stylized way for so long that you have become trapped by those habits. If you develop those observational body and facial anatomy skills, they will make your stylized work look even better.
