    I would like to see examples of your perfect animals and imperfect humans before offering any tips.

    but really that is such a broad freakin question that you'll need to refer to srsizzy's post.

    If you saw a perfect drawing of an animal you would just sit there at your computer, weeping with joy until you died.

    Reading that post was exhausting man. Full stops and commas are your friends, don't be scared of them.

    As for people, a life drawing class can be super useful.
