I like the different colors you used, and I think you portrayed the pose/anatomy pretty accurately!
The hands and feet look a bit vague, it looks like you focused a bit too much on the details over the general shape. I like to cycle through the hand/feet archive just sketching the general shape in ten seconds or so - unfocusing your eyes or sitting farther away from the screen can help.
You want to first train your hand to draw the basic shapes of what hands and feet look like from different directions, so you can focus on the details later.
Here's an example I found :

This is a great thing to do with the rest of the body too - remember to always start basic and flowy.
Don't worry about making it look realistic too! Loose or sketchy drawings are always a great start, and sometimes they can look even better than slow & careful accurate ones.
With the gel pen, I've had professors tell us to doodle circles and lines as part of our warmup sketches, just to get used to the kind of marks we can make. "Markmaking exercises" are a good thing to look into if you'd like to get more comfortable with what you're drawing with.

Once more, I think you're doing a finer job on your fluid flow following with the forms of the figure poses. But, I feel like your forms could use a bit more internalized vitality and intensity of your forms and spaces in your construction. How would you like to loosen up your shapes, spaces, and forms with 32 minutes of 29 second quicker poses (1920/29≈66 scribblier shapes and form drawings), but while warming up to your Drawabox exercises here online?
As a result, to help yourself into making your figure constructions lesser than stiffer, and more dynamic, fluider, therefore livelier, but to make yourself have more fun with the basic drawing ideas on Drawabox website (not too sure about the web address)
Hope these have helped you out even more to your marches of progresses and myelins.
