The Book Of Fundamentals

Hey man, your figure proportions seem too tall. (recurring theme in your work, might be that anime influence?) Your figures are about 8.5 - 9 heads tall but don't have the corresponding width. I'd say aim for the more standard 7.5 or 8 heads tall to start with.

Learn the landmarks of the figure that align at each head. The second head from the top lines up with the nipples (on men, women nipples may be a bit lower). The third head lines up with the navel, the fourth the pubic symphasis. Second head from bottom lines up with the bottom of the knees.  All the anatomy resources will have a drawing of these or similar measurements, keep them on hand and refer to them all the time.  When you are doing your drawings really aim for accuracy above all first.

About your pictures, is it possible to straighten out the camera when you are taking the pictures? Everything has a perspective distortion to it, so it makes it hard to judge your work in the best way.

Nice perspective studies, keep it going!
