Hey, 👋 hope you're doing well ^^
I think I may have a few tips for you,
Maybe first in generell, I believe that it is incredible important to learn the basics first before trying to stylize them. The artist of the digital post you send, probably have a very deep understanding of anatomy to pull of the believability of their characters.
Though to the real advice now, sorry for the longish start. I think the most important thing to do, is kinda continue, what you are already doing. The exercise you send with the simple geometrical forms is great! Understanding form and 3D is definitely one, if not the most important thing when drawing. After that are definitely anatomy lessons a must, if you wanna stylize you stuff (though honest advice, don't make the style development you main goal just yet. Stay with the basics a bit longer, till they feel more compfy. That doesn't mean you can't already try drawing stylized stuff, definitely continue doing whatever brings you joy ^^)
Great for improving and learning anatomy and form at the same time, is the youtube channel 'Proko' they have the most incredible tutorials on anatomy! (For the start they have a great tutorial on a simplified torso, or as they call it the 'bean')
Definitely try working yourself through they anatomy playlist a bit, its so so helpful in the long run.
If you wanna get into more semi-realistic/none classic tutorials try 'sinix designs' ones, his anatomy quick tips are very helpful.
Hope that helps, wish you all the best
