Looking through your gallery what I think you really need to do is work on proportioning and anatomy. You have it pretty close but there are problems with lines that makes the limbs look fake and amateur. I think I can help you with this pretty easily then all you have to do is practice. If you would like me to show you, I need you to draw a character with no clothes. It doesn't have to be anatomically correct, a sexually ambiguous character would be fine. Draw it in any position you want and I will take it and show you some of the common mistakes you are making. I'll post it to my scraps and leave a lengthy description in the artist comments once I have time to do it. Like I said your stuff is close but if you don't start recognizing some of the mistakes you won't be able to improve yourself.

Wow
uh
Thank you!
It's rare (actually, it's never happened at all) that someone critiques my work like that. I'm really grateful, as I love getting constructive criticism from other people. I've been trying to work on proportions, since my friends have said that I've sort of adopted CLAMP's style a bit ^^; I've never really gotten the opportunity. (wish I could look at your gallery D: my stupid old computer won't let me look at it without the internet crashing) But again, I don't get this a lot (even though I do ask for it, grrr) and I really, really appreciate you taking the time to help me out.
I'll get on that right away, love :meow:

Dont worry about it too much. I can see a bit of clamps style but their proportions are correct. You have a tendency to make the heads too big and the limbs are usually too thin and tend to bend slightly in ways the limbs don't. I'll show you when I make the corrections. Don't expect them to be fantastic. It'll probably be red pen over your lines to show you the differences. If you want some real criticism go into the forums and ask people how they work out their proportioning or buy some anatomy and reference books. They show you some neat tricks on how to figure it out. Then just practice sketches where your main goal is to work out the proportions.

Also, don't expect me to post right away. I need to finish a few things first but I WILL get to it.

Still, it's greatly appreciated :) I know my older work is really off, and I feel I've improved a lot since then. But I'd love to get even better :heart:

Oh don't worry about getting back right away, I understand completely.
