I have been in an artmood lately and I'm practicing more now. I thought I'd share my progress from first to the newest. After I have done a few and figuring how to work step by step I'm actually finally going to starting working on more OC's for my Original Story.

My first drawing I actuall finished. Haven't really tried shading on this one though.. I used my Mesmer as the model.

My second, it's still in the works but here I'm actually trying to do some shading. It's a gift for Marshmallow.

''The Storm''.

You got the face and the tits down perfectly on the first picture, yet the face, which I usually consider to be the easier section... Looks slightly squashed.

Honestly, I find the facial details a little harder to do. But I'm trying to work on it..

Leave minion to only worry about the tits and the face.

It looks like you're getting down the idea of the outline and form to the figure. Though I think you should start incorporating structure more as you continue to work on your figure drawings.

Structure will help you with understanding the planes and surface changes on the human body to prevent it from looking flat. Try using brush strokes in a direction that reflects the surface change. A good artist that uses this technique is Andrew Loomis:

Also, don't think of shading or value as just a color change. Understand the underlying structure first, and then believable shading will follow.

Thanks Charlie, I have been thinking of doing a couple of faces first before I continue on to more waist-up/full-body pictures. Since faces are quite important in destinquishing characters.
