You've got too many straight lines going on. If you look at a human body, you'll notice that there's really not any straight lines at all.
I don't expect you to become an anatomy master overnight, but try to learn about it so you'll get there eventually. Try looking at how legs look in life, and how other people sprite legs. Try understanding the shapes of heads and arms better, as well as proportions. Right now the legs look shorter than the body, but it should be the other way around.
Don't feel overwhelmed by how much there is to do, just try it one step at a time and improve what you can. I know learning anatomy for the first time can make you feel lost and confused. That's totally normal, just observe what you can and give it a try and we'll try to help. Keep going!
p.s. look at this

in particular please note the part about splitting the head into thirds. Right now you've got the eyes really far up. ...Are those sunglasses? Sunglasses aren't diamond-shaped
