With my mind it's lots of good ideas and bad ideas the hard part is trying to find out what I really want.. sometimes I can't tell if I'm doing things I felt I should do or am I following after someone else. Well at least I have this space in my mind to clear away from that even if for while a little while. ^^

Looks great Kota! Your really improving from when I 1st met you! ^^ Keep up the good work! And I know you have never heard me give constructive criticism before but if you would like some I would like to make a few suggestions to further improve your abilities!
Anatomy: When making the arms of any figure that has proper bone structure the clavicle and the shoulder blade are what practically make up the shoulder of the body which is usually sketched as a circle as you know. The arm is always segmented in 3 parts. Shoulder, humerus(The name of the bone in the upper arm that connects the radius and ulna), and forearm. but remember, the shoulder "ALWAYS" follows the humerus straight like a line!
Angling: The hand you had the right idea for but, when naturally pulling down on a shirt the finger flow is more like this ( http://cache1.asset-cache.net/xc/140461495-hand-pulling-rope-photos-com.jpg?v=1&c=IWSAsset&k=2&d=B53F616F4B95E5535FC549B255A0F75F5C5D06B57F54435E7063D279799F21C87F3253EB5DA4A499 ) Its not a perfect example but I suggest taking a personal look as you do it in front of the mirror to see exactly as I mean. Nextly, the hand can be angled better by practicing drawing the side of a hand/paw

One important main thing to change in the "side of a hand" process as I see you need to improve on is in the angling of the knuckle structure! you placed the knuckles as if your hand was looking to the screen! the knuckles should flow with your fingers just as the shoulder does to the humerus!
Example:

Clothes wrinkles: You did excellent on the pull of the shirt, wrinkles of the shirt, and creases in the sleeve! But remember! "YOU CANNOT JUST THROW WRINKLES INTO CLOTHES" Make a feel for it and look at it in rl for full example. The wrinkles in the front of the shirt are actually accurately placed and you were on the right track! Problem, the "Pull" which causes those wrinkles are too loose. I drew this to show you what I mean.

Physics: The arm warmer is most likely composed of polyester and cotton which is obviously less firm then cotton and/or denim. so, the cloth would side further down your arm as your arm is angled more towards with gravity in this picture. Unless it wasnt as loose it would slide down less. But this is where the loose wrinkles would come in and be in correct proportion. Now it would also hold up better if your arm was holding it up to your shirt but then the arm warmer would have to flatten out more to your shirt since its so loose. You can tell its not though because there is space between the underpart of the wrist area on the arm warmer. Now with the leg stockings looks loose and strapped at the same time which is completely okay and natural based on how tight it holds to your leg. now, the one in the back (Right leg) looks loose (as if it wants to fall off) at the bottom but, looks like it wants to hold tight with the leg at the top like it has something inside it to hold it up.. Remember: If it straps on, it goes with the leg curvature like this (( not like this )( if you know what I mean. now to the front leg stocking... The same concept applies but assuming the strap part is folded over practically double layered and sewn together it lays flat on top of the double layer unless its partly stuffed with cotton! Meaning not to make it like / flat it should be like this ( because its material but what im getting at is you should lessen the ( in the legs stocking and in the back, remember body flow )) the bottom half is too straight down from the angle of the leg. remember to keep equal symmetry of the curve of the stocking strap part.
Questions:
Before you ask why I suddenly decided to help you, is because I decided to assist you from the fact I feel I would benefit you more if I help you as you have helped me.
How do I know all this? I know alot of things I just never tell or admit to alot of ppl knowing because I feel I would be rude to say, "I know." Saying that causes the other to usually feel awkward and/or embarrassed. As well as make a person feel less useful if they are trying to give constructive information. As for me, I learned we are all fools in a sense. Even if you feel nervous about saying or asking something constructive, may as well say/ask it because it could possibly help.
Have I changed? In a good sense! Im still a loving happy gay boy fox! XD
Any other questions?

Yeah I got a question. What have you done with my brother ? *giggles and hugs tight* hehe Silly you should know better than anyone how much I love helping others as well as gaining some help ^^ I'm not angry at all with all of what you just told me honest I'm not. Actually I'm really glad your helping me I really want us both to reach the goal we first made when we met remember we promised " To become Awesome outstanding artist someday" and I'm sure if we both help eachother out I know we'll get there very fast. Your an awesome person and brother to me and I'm very glad to have met you and forever thankful of moment I knows your happy tho you can be a meanie or pervert with jokes sometimes.....I still loves ya
Okay I know I can be a total perv with jokes but never once have I tried to me mean! XD Even now I just wanted to be of more use to you! Im trying to help you with what I can! Constructive criticism is actually useful! Unlike other criticisms! But its nice to hear good feedback! ^^ If I said something like, "You Suck!" That would both be unimportant criticism and a lie! Because you dont suck! You have a lot of potential! Always remember, nobody can go far without passion! Some people take it far with their passion. For an example, I know of a photographer that went up deep in the snow with his vehicle and risked everything on some pictures that most ppl cant get because they didnt take the risk. You know what he did to keep warm? Leave his engine running all night. Another stood on top of a chunk of whale that was dead but the sharks would be coming at it taking the chunks of whale blubber away. he wanted to get those shots though! Now that's passion! Keep your work to your heart and dont stop! I know im gonna go far because Im gonna see the beautiful places in the world to draw! I so want to go to England though! Look at this!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1fAsdrSAJE&feature=plcp It just looks so... clean! My favorite vid by this person though is this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6n8pzx_i_7o&feature=my_liked_videos&list=LLvX_8730Q8lPBxDTQQCNLsw :b
*blush and nods* Thank you very much. I'm glad to hear my practice is paying off hehe honestly I never thought I'll leave stick figures or motionless bodies but I'm slowly working on improving from tutorials , videos and My own practice I know I got plenty to work on but I'm always glad to hear feedback and tips to know if I messed up something on a practice so then I don't make the same mistakes twice or at least practice not to make them so often.
