Going to focus more about getting down the main form of a figure instead of immediately jumping to the details... it's a difficult transition, but I'm learning a lot!
Amanda, The bear character and the medium shot drawing of Fatty Arbuckle (best stage name EVER!) are fantastic. The looseness of your line, yet the ability to dial in details and preserve the gesture is magnificent - look here for inspiration. It's successful elsewhere, too, in varying degrees. Think of it like this - that foundation gesture isn't merely a skeleton - it IS the drawing. Work through the forms and use the darker lines to reinforce what's already there. Good work.
Ha! I love your bear on the bass! He has really great form and character. :]
