Yo man!
Hope you don´t mind i´ve revisited your drawing just to illustrate what i´ve meant by connection between the legs and the torso. Two considerations;

LEGS-TORSO CONNECTION
1- When drawing clothing think always about the underlying form below, the body needs to exist coherently below the clothes.
2- Clothes should wrap and enhance the form, or at least hint to form, even with baggy pants haha
3- Overlap. The biggest trick in the book to sell form ( i´ve made a quick example in the drawover)
I´m still struggling with that one. Jason Seiler as well as Nathan Fowkes always pushed that tip in their courses.

HEAD STRUCTURE
1- Suggestion; tackle three kinds of heads to learn quicker the struckture of the head and enhance heads, which should be a priority on any illustrator carreer;

A) Studying heads from photos, some quick doodles, one or two with more time dedicated to it

B) Studying construtive anatomy refs such as Andrew Loomis - make a couple of quick studies, structure sketches and one or two finished.


C) Study the artist you admire, for example, if you admire the artistry of Akira Toriyama for Dragon Quest, by all means draw a few head sketches from Akira Toriyama, either from DB manga, Dr. Slum or Dragon Quest etc. ( Dragon Quest VIII for ps2 has the best concept art- that´s a persona taste haha)

2) Explore a bit, as i´ve did in the drawover, two solutions, one with a wider cap for the nose like Trunks in DB or Jim Hawkins in Treasure Planet, and other with a more concentrated features. I guarantee you, if you start nailing heads you will have tons of fun.

Hope it hellps my friend. Just my couple of cents haha.
