Thanks for the advice, I can see what you mean now looking at it, so I'll make changes when I come back to it. It supposed to be a fashion design rather than a piece of art so that's why it's kind of sketchy, unfinished and unshaded at the moment. But I'll do that as I go!
When you're drawing something as a fashion design make sure to use something that can be easily erased and redone, like an HB art pencil and draw over your mistakes, over and over and over until it looks ok with one of the hundred-billion layers you just drew over yourself, and draw over that line thicker than your other lines and erase the rest, by doing this you will be able to create a momentum and recreate the way your hands can move in order to create more of a natural shade. This comes with time, however it's a very useful skill and talent all at once, especially when it comes to drawing very specific shapes and sizes, such as a skull, where you would draw one or more circles as the very beginning layer to guide you to draw your jaws. I have never, drawn a skull with just one attempt.

However, it's looking great; and so are you! :x Good luck!
