Thank you so much for the critique and don't worry as it didn't come off as weird. I hope you're alright with a ramble inbound since that kinda happened.
The proportions and hands are completely understandable to me. I can sum up proportions as a slow to climb slope. My proportions are getting better to my knowledge but not very quickly. I'm sure it'll continue to improve with time and I could probably speed it up if I wanted to. For the hands, the mitten look has been my go to if the fingers are together (each digit is drawn if it's separate, which usually have some kind of reference use). It's likely rooted with my use of small canvases and comics also with smaller canvases. It tended to make the hand a black blob thus the mitten workaround. I definitely want to try to deviate from that, though.
I honestly have no clear idea of what to do with clothing. So far it's been a balancing act of having folds but not making it too detailed to where it's the focus. Really need to iron that out a bit. So far it's just the key spots, like joints.
