Ya, me neither. I prefer trying to draw giant robots used for mass destruction. <3
When drawing hair, try and shade a tad bit along the outline of the bangs since they usually hover a bit above your forehead~
And if you want to add more detail to black clothing, like say the boots, color it reeeaaally dark grey like Batman, and then do some black shading for the tip and backsides of the boots.
Hopefully these came in handy, the only other advice I have would be trying to sketch out characters wearing eccentric clothing and practice with that!
