Hi!
Getting realism down starts with a solid understanding of Structure first. Have you been jumping around with your learning resources? As in, not sticking with one for a period of time?
Here are ones that helped me. Not to add to your list but perhaps you can find some value in one and stick with it this time.
Chris Legaspi He has some practical exercises on Value, Shape Design, etc.
Marshall Vandruff's Book Recommendations He introduced me to Robert Beverly Hale's books which laid the groundwork
Steve Huston's 'Figure Drawing For Artists' Look up his book on Amazon. He too has practical exercises that are some of the best I know for learning to draw the figure.
Hope this helps!
