I get to meet the infamous PJAMA
You ought to read up on the basics, sir.
Oh I get to use that line again. "You're shading just to shade, you need to shade to show depth." There's quite a few things in the art resources thread that you should take a look at. I don't know if this goes against what most people would say but I think it's actually more useful to learn how to draw more realistic people before trying to draw little cartoony/chibi/whatever ones. There's still a certain structure that should be there, even in small things, but you really learn it if you go all the way.
