Welcome to the forum! I'm relatively new to drawing too. Your stuff looks really good so far!
Some things that have helped me in my journey - Scott Robertson's 'How to Draw' book, you've seen his style this is years of his knowledge in a book; it's all about perspective, amongst other things it teaches you where you can draw in relation to vanishing points so as not to distort images and how to construct drawings when the vanishing point is off the page. It's really taught me so much, well worth the price tag.
The other thing is Andrew Loomis's 'Figure Drawing for all it's Worth', you can see it free as a PDF since it's out of copyright (http://www.goodreads.com/ebooks/download...It_s_Worth)
I've studied a lot of anatomy over the past 6 months but it wasn't until I started working through Loomis that things started to click and I was able to draw convincing figures.
Have a look, if it's for you we could support each other through anatomy studies : )
Best of luck! Keep drawing!
