    So sounds like I need to practice even more, you’re right about the poses, I have been trying to force myself to make more “3d” poses (to practice foreshortening and the like) but I can accept that maybe I need to step down a few levels. Another thing I would like to work on is stepping away from such a cartoon style and actually making things more whimsical looking, but again. I will try to work on proportions more

      Perspective can be very hard. But also very awarding when it is right. I would recommend drawing lines to help. The light source is also very important To create a less flat look and create the mood.

      I did a fast googling and this article seems good https://mymodernmet.com/perspective-drawing/

      It also talks about the shades needed to make it seem less flat.

      I would also recommend using your own body by taking a picture of yourself posing. You will easier see how some parts looks bigger and smaller depending on the perspective. Pinterest is also a good source to find ppl posing. And there is an deviant art account creating a lot of images of their team posing (even action proses with props). Good luck!
