... what lighting? :P Anatomy only counts if you draw the whole body, and you don't leave off the parts that are hard to draw (like hands and feet).
Shoulders seem sorta tacked on, as do the wings. One is given the impression that the wings actually sprout out the back of his head. They should swoop out from the shoulder blades, and they should follow the basic structure of the arm you and I are both familiar with, with a humerus rising up, radius and ulna swooping down.
As for the shoulders, it's probably because you did not consider how the head and neck connect to the rib cage. The rib cage is not a structure that terminates in a "tube" on the very top. Our neck comes forward and up from the rib cage.
Also, the drawing may seem sort of "flat" to you and I. That is because you've avoided any sort of significant overlapping which would give the character more form. You've mad the cheeks big enough, or the beak small enough, that they do not cross each other. The ears would also not curve in the same direction; the right ear would curve in the opposite direction of the left, and so from this 3/4ths view, it would appear to go straight away from the head. Course, a wind might be blowing, but then why aren't the feathers and hair reacting? :3
