Hi, I've been my whole life drawing since childhood, I do as I can, I didn't go to art school, I've been creating this template for my female characters, just to say I've never put all into learning anatomy, and I don't really know what the hell, so if someone could help me.

this is a pretty good template, though for a general template it does have pretty extreme proportions, if that is your intention that is fine, however if you want to make characters with a larger variety of body shapes and sizes, it would be best to have a more regular and "generic" looking template that you can slightly adjust depending on the character.

What do you think I must adjust, I mean I see something's not right but I can't kinda Guess what It is

I think the chest is too firm into place like a muscle, when it would normally be relaxed, you should lower it a bit
and also the feet are a bit long

Yeah that's certainly It I mean the feet before was shorter you can see a bit erased, but I thought "maybe too short" so I make It longer, "But It wasn't quite great either

#

And about the chest, I don't really know how to improve It, cuz everything I saw was giving me tips in opposite ways, and I haven't found a good reference.

#

Also maybe the hips are to big or that's what's giving me feelings off, there's things I want to change, cuz I don't wanna my style to become a gooner artstyle... I mean sometimes I make something like It like the Digital one, but that's cuz is a fanart of a youtuber's meme despair

I think it's because you're doing them thinking of them as shoes, since when you try to draw feet in that shape, while it does work, it does come off as a bit long, while for shoes it looks fine.
Though to be honest, seeing your drawings, you don't seem to have too much of a issue drawing the body, so unless it's really troubling you in the drawing process, it's fine to have a imperfect template, mine are even moreso lol.
The only visible thing is of course the repeating body shape and size, which I think you'll have no trouble in changing that if you want to

I mean that's up to ya to decide cheeeeeeese
I've seen far worst here (which is surprising), so you're def not on the deep end, and even then when someone does post quite suggestive art, I for one still give 'em a star usually if they have a nice art style

#

as long as you're not doing really suggestive stuff or increasing even more the proportions, I wouldn't count it too much as that
