Well, if your looking for C.C.
it seems like you want to tackle human figures. Which isn't very easy thing to do. Rather its the hardest thing in the world to draw. Without experience in life drawing, it wont be easy to achieve life like quality.
So i suggest drawing from picture reference for now.
next time you draw consider:
a. legs/arms - they are not straight.
b. hair, get the big shape, and other small shape. there is rarely repetetive pattern of hair falling except for the forehead. which varies in size. Most people make mistakes on hair by over detailing it. Make it simple, give points where necessary.
c. hand - holds no.2 spot in terms of difficulty. this will improve slowly as one pratices. So don't panic, but try to get the shape of the hand correct.
See in Shapes.
See in Tones
DO NOT see in outlines.
Outlines in reality does NOT exist.
We actually see in tones.
but in manga outlines are used, that is why people who are inspired by manga to draw is at a bad start. Read shapes and tones, but never make outlines like that.
When i do life drawing, i do shapes and tones and in the final stage i put in the outline and the contour lines.
Remember:
Draw what you see NOT what you THINK you see.
