Hey dude,
two things I can say right now - for perspective watch Coldburger (Christian Fell)'s streams and find his stuff about perspective, if you cant, ask him about perspective exercises. The things you're doing now, although they do look somewhat accurate, wont help you much in the long run. Once you understand the correct way to improve and learn, everything's going to start progressing rapidly, but until then, those perspective drills wont change much. I'd actually doing gesture drawing using riot art as reference or something else that is dynamic and has a lot of foreshortening.
The second thing - try to be confident in your work. One of the most important things in art is that the image looks convincing. That means basically that you should think about why you're doing stuff (when you're aiming to produce finished work) - for example, if you're having a cast shadow is the edge to hard/soft, how does it look? Does it have a muddy feeling to it as if it's not exactly sure what it is, or is it showing exactly the form you intended. This applies to everything.
Just some suggestions from my personal experience. Hopefully they're useful for something.
