To anyone hoping to improve their technique, I like to suggest figure drawing. By studying anatomy through drawing, you can start to render your own figures without the use of a model. I like to think that you cannot draw a cartoon cat without first understanding how it's body works, then you can go back and make exaggerations to it's form. If I'm beginning a figure drawing session, I like to start off with quick 1-2 min poses, then work my way up to half hour poses. These drawings were done during much longer sit downs. If you don't have a live model there are a lot of great websites that offer class-like sessions.
