Asked for help
I may have taken a break between the first two and last four due to hardware maintenance, but I feel like I can see a difference in quality from where I started to a couple of months later with other art works in between.

Hi @Ashleigh, nice studies!
I would recommend getting used to the idea of simpifying what you draw into simple geometric forms, like boxes, cylinders and spheres. You've done it for the epicondyles of the humerus (a cylinder), which is great! Try to draw with the same mindset for the rest of the bones. Marshall Vandruff makes this clear in his demos (Types of Joints Assignment Example 1 & co). If this idea is new to you, I strongly recommend taking the Figure Drawing Fundamentals course.
Thinking in simple geometric forms also helps with shading. In image 5 for example, you could have the crosscontour shading wrap around the cylindrical form of the shaft, to emphasize its form.
Hope this helps :) Keep up the good work!

Well, here's my rendition of the tracing. I had some difficulty keeping what a saw and what I thought I in the muscle shapes separate, but I'm very happy with the outcome.
I would love to know what brush was used in the video, I absolutely love it!
