Hey Pawell, you've only been figure drawing for a few months, right? Don't be too hard on yourself, this is just how it goes. I wish you had started figure drawing earlier though, because I feel like drawing the figure is where you "real" improvement really begins.

The thing that improved my figure drawing the MOST was doing the David Finch roadmap. If I were you, I'd start from the beginning, with John Buscema's book, doing little mannequin gestures every day, memorizing your anatomy and proportions, then eventually getting to the Bridgman routine. With your grindset focus, I'm sure you will make it through Bridgman. Dave's roadmap is literally the most efficient way to learn figure drawing and construction, in my opinion. You can swap out Bridgman with Morpho or Taco, if you want, but I wouldn't recommend it. Your work is already very curvy and wiggly, and I think you NEED Bridgman's hard edges to counterbalance your natural tendency.

After you finish Bridgman, watch David Finch's study streams and just study like that, for the rest of your art journey.

Good luck!
