I would definitely suggest drawing from life for a while because you clearly have no true conception of how the human body is made up. This is especially evident in how you draw shoulders and necks, which are too narrow and sloping to be a stylized representation of real life.
Stop being afraid to draw hands and feet because if you never draw them, you'll never learn how. Practice drawing a few isolated hands and feet in different angles and poses, in all likelihood you have a few of your own to look at. Also, the bodies of the people you draw have no structure, and it doesn't look like they have any room for organs. This is kind of normal in "anime art," but that doesn't mean I have to accept it. wink
Most people on Gaia will like your style, I'm sure, but that doesn't necessarily make it correct. On the plus side, you seem to be good at getting the movement and gesture of Gaia items down. I want to see something NOT related to Gaia to see if that movement continues when you aren't directly copying items.
You have potential to become much better with a few years of practice. Hopefully I didn't sound too harsh, and good luck!

Pomato is right, though. Even if anime will always be your style, you will benefit tremendously from studying realistic anatomy and doing life drawings. Anime is based on reality; it's just a tweaked version of it. If you don't know its foundations, if you don't have a good understanding of what it's based off of, it's going to affect your work negatively.
Now, when someone tells you to study real anatomy, it doesn't mean you have to stop drawing in anime style. Continue drawing in anime style, but do some realistic practices on the side. (When you do this, avoid copying from photos; draw real people in front of you instead) Art classes are a great place to do it. 3nodding
You do not need to start doing it right now. But in the future, if you ever feel like you've hit a snag in terms of improving your anatomy, you know what to do. Take my word for it; I'm an anime style artist myself.
