While this isn't a particularly successful attempt I guess I would just suggest to try and clearly define the separation between the torso and the hips; as-is it kind of looks like her logs are just wedged into the rest of her upper body.

Not bad; the hand seems slightly disembodied somehow. Try putting your hand in that position with your wrist at hairline-level or so in the mirror and see if you notice any interesting discrepancies. When I do it, my shoulder has to be raised a bit and my elbow is just below my jaw and there are a few other things.
I think if I could make one specific observation though, the hand is pretty big-normally your palm to your fingertips relative to the skull extends from the bottom of the jaw to a little over the brow line with an average sized hand. In this picture she could grip her own head like Kareem Abdul Jabar grips a B-ball in his mighty phalanges

I intended that hand to be hers from the start, but later decided to make it the viewers after I realized the proprtions were off and I didn't want to redraw it. I did alter the drawing after, lightening the eyes and lips, but it's not worth reposting. Thanks for the feed back. Wish more were drawing.

I think current events have made us collectively even more dead inside than usual. I'm planning on getting back into it shortly. A lot of us have been drawing in the Drawpile at the end of the week-if you have a tablet and you want to goof around with us it'd definitely be something you may want to consider

Finally stopped procrastinating and put effort into something. Used a random 4 color palette to practice blending. But at this point I’m just smearing mud around so I gave up. Can’t wait for this goddamned virus to fuck off already so I can go back to painting nature stuff with all of my grandma friends.

A fine attempt but yeah it's definitely one of those things you need to do a lot. There are a lot of techniques and tools to learn. High level furry artists are, as one might expect, usually quite good at "indicating" fur in such a way where each individual strand isn't recorded but is somehow aptly implied-might be something to look into. Your drawing is okay but his legs are slightly too long and the (visual) elevation of his rear legs is reversed with the "front rear" foot being a little above its counterpart.

Apparently the trick to drawing fur is to draw a solid dark under layer and paint brighter clumps on top.

I like what you did in the mid section of the fox. That style reminds me of ancient cave paintings. I understand you are trying to achieve something else though.

One of your stronger works thus far. The blending is quite nice. It appears her right shoulder and trapezius area is perhaps a bit too long but I could be wrong, she is pulling her left shoulder closer to her center mass after all.

Well, I'm back with more of what could charitably be called "artwork", this time of an MMA fighter, and with COLORS.
In full honesty this most probably looks worse than from several months ago. I've been distracted and unmotivated not going to lie. All I can do it keep at it.

We all start somewhere.
You need to practice basic spatial relationships-the basics of the basics. I'll introduce you to an exercise I have a lot of faith in.
Get yourself two pieces of paper, on one piece make about 20-30 "dots" completely randomly on it-don't consciously think about their position at all, just make little marks like you're filling out a multiple choice test-and on the other I want you to try and recreate the position of those dots to the best of your ability. Observe the dots you'd made on the first piece of paper, try and gauge their distance from one another and put a mark down where you think it should be.
Important: This is something I failed to do, but actually trace a few of them along the edges (I'd say no more than five) so you can start your new piece of paper with a couple of 100% accurate marks for context.
When you're done, put the pieces of paper over one another and hold them up to an overhead light to check your accuracy! It will probably not be great at first, just keep trying until you can get them pretty consistent!
Why: Every drawing or painting whether from observation or imagination has tons of spatial relationships that need to be perceived and recorded accurately to get an appealing result. This is easily the simplest exercise I know of to quickly train your eye to be able to see these things with some degree of clarity when you're first starting to learn. Do it a bunch!

I don't normally do this, but this one was bugging me. I had to check how off I was. Eyes were spot on and I think it shows. Unfortunately small misses really do make a huge difference.

I thank you for the feed back. Her right arm and shoulder are a case of me running out of paper and not being able to render the arm in the reference properly.
Her huge ear however, after checking the reference, is all my fault lol, kicking myself for not catching that.
measure twice and lightly draw once, then measure again

The lady is stylized but how should I render her? I can make studies on fundies but for some reason, when I try to apply the knowledge, I hit on the stone wall. I tried looking for references on instagram but none of the photo in her pose looks photogenic with nice balance of light and colours to imitate.

I am not sure what program you are using. You could download GIMP for free.
Here is an example of how I play with light sources. Take your image and darken it. Then use something like a Burn/Dodge tool and play around with where you think the light would hit depending on where you want your light source to be. Also draw simple figures. A small (4inch) featureless figure can go a long way.
Keep drawing :)
