Uhh, just out of curiosity.... are you using ms paint?

Uhh, you might wanna do alot more traditional media, work before you go digital. And i know its over stated but... draw from life, and take some classes.

Yes Reference, real life or photo is good.

Learn to draw realistic proportions and anatomy first. Many of the most stylised cartoonists can still draw very realistic images.

When you know the basics of good figure drawing, it looks much more convincing when you alter the proportions etc.

Try drawing in pencil and pen and scanning the images in.

do it with a pencil and a piece of paper, and any a most good cartoonists have a very well grounded knowledge about anatomie.
