Someone might find this useful, harvey dunn was tutored under Howard Pyle and was genre changing in the same right as NC Wyeth was. His thoughts are good. Read alongside Robert Henri's the art spirit for a good base philosophy on art.

Good start, as all things it is hard to say wether there is "hope" for someone or not. Buy the Art Spirit and look at life. Draw not only from imagination but also from life - and then the memory of life, you can get incredibly far this way.

You can get articulated dolls with full limb movement in the range of 50-100 usd. With a stand it is well worth the price just to be able to fondle and thus get a feel for the movement. You could also just invest in a mirror.

cool! outside of some proportion issues a lot of these look solid though some of the feet are not truely attached to a groundplane. Have you thought about using these as the base for illustrations? Ie paint/draw on top of them, give them clothing and costume?

You could also experiment with drawing the same pose from a different angle in your head.
