Jaharl's Bucket of Fried Pixel Art.

You need severe teaching of anatomy and depth. This is impossible in a single post, but I'll try being quick and nice.

Drawing is very simple - anyone can pick a pencil and draw some image. But in order to draw well, you must know how to observe. For example, If I draw this and ask you what this is:

you'll say something like "wow gors you're a prick, this is a circle, do you think im that dense"

"oh... um. That... certainly is not a circle"

Yes, I drew a cone. And the difference between the first drawing and the second drawing is that the first is lineart only, and the second has shading.

"And where does this apply to what I did at all"

This is the catch. Learning to draw lines is all but a small fraction of visual art. You can't draw only with lineart if you want to grow up artistically. Lineart is when you draw in 2D, and shading is when you draw in 3D. Remember these words.

Please practice with simple shapes and solids, knowing how lines and lights interact with each other is imprescindible for tackling more complex shapes such as heads or bodies.

AKA this implies practicing actual art (not pixelart). grab a pencil and study a lot!
