Hi !
To be honest it's getting better bits by bits, which is good :)
Overall you lack of focus, what I mean by that, you seems to be panicked on your 15s sketches because you might not knowing what to do in this short amount of time.
I will suggest you to keep it simple, leave some anatomical shapes behind, like Alex Woo does, it will help you to gain confidence in your line :
For your longer sketches, you seems to have few notions of perspective BUT your drawings are clouded by that huge weakness. You could put any details, if your foundations aren't stable, everything falls apart no matter what. I'd like to share an exemple of what you could focus on for 5 mins :
Basically it's getting a mental representation, to visualize before making any mark on the paper, so you don't waste time and have fun.
Still, don't overlook perspective before studying anatomy, because it's crutial and this topic is too complex for any beginners. I made that mistake in the past :)
Good luck!

Actually, not that bad ! :) You start to have a sense of proportion but you need to gain confidance with your line by doing these warm-ups gesture exercises then you might want to spend 1-2h on a longer drawing.
Depends what you goals are too...but I do agree with the upper comment, study how perspective works. "Drawing Perspective: How to See It and How to Apply It" a book that can be found on Amazon for 26 euros.
If you want some serious improvements, you should probably take this course after : https://www.schoolism.com/school.php?id=14
Perspective + gesture is extremely important to understand drawing and painting everything !
Good luck!

Thank you ! :) In fact you need to understand perspective, gesture, anatomy and your tools (lot of work but it gives freedom)
I got better at drapery now after my workshop with moderndayjames, here an exemple : https://imgur.com/a/pysGH9J
Of course I'll give it a shot, I've a personnal project ongoing involving 75 references of folds, drapery now that I understand its physics.
If I want to become a professional in the animation / video game industry I must be disciplined, above all when your guts tells it to be that way.

Hi! Thanks for replying !
Do you have any suggestion to get better at it ? What could I do better ?
It varies between 90 sec up to 3-4 minutes. Btw this is a very small part of my actual work. I mostly do them as warm-ups :)
Yeah why not, seems fun, I'm going to do that now

Hi ! I'm currently focusing on fabrics, folds and so on, I'll be glad to have honest feedback on few gestures that I found lovely imo.
Either way I'm about to start a course on drapery (Moderndayjames if you know him) and I hope to have a deeper understanding over time.
Thank you
