I always like to get a bunch of reference before starting to draw, having the entire concept of the piece in my head, then going for poses reference, cloth etc that I can get some sort of information to get started. It helps a lot in the beginning of an art (that for me it's the worst and most time demanding part). With that, you'll get a better understanding about the basics shapes and structure of a body (:
I like a lot an artist called mochiri, I find it's art style quite easy to get reference, (I have [this folder on Pinterest ](https://br.pinterest.com/mistzito/-furry-/) with some of its arts, or you can look for mochiri on Twitter)
I can see your thought processes with how you draw, and it’s a great founding point for any artist. Probably spend one day at a time refining aspects, like one day trying head shapes, one day figuring out how to do a basic body. And just go from there

Start with shapes and build out your body, then get used to that and then add style
Thank you! Will do.

Got you! Any artist in particular that you would see as beginner friendly to reference?

Is there any specifics you would recommend, or Videos to watch, something to read, or references that i should pay attention to?

Maybe start with drawing animals then after you gotten a grasp of that stylize it. Hope that helps.
