Imitation is the first step, you eventaully have to be able to re create using your own poses. Pretty simple either way.

I'm going to be reducing the upload frequency the next few days to weeks to find some order in this chaos. Only noticeable improvement in this painting is the use of opacity but be prepared for the return of cracked tooth toons in the future.

Hmm good explaination video and Photshop Prodjects Video but not worth watching :(
Well, I think if you feel like you reached a "plateau" in your skills, maybe it's time to get input from somewhere else. Instead of trying to draw from other drawing (cartoons), try painting from real life, like from photos. Take some art classes, buy some tutorials from gnomon workshop (or others, there is tons of them) in concept art or character drawing or something. Get some art books. You need to get a hold of "brushes" in digital painting, shading, light, perspective, color theory, proportions and all... there is a shit ton to learn. Doing the same thing over and over won't get you too far, honestly. Practice makes perfect, yes, but you need the theory first, then practice the hell out of it. Just my 2 cents, all the best, cheers!
Interesting but all swiths into your drawing and the reference destroyed my eyes... O_o
I'm really not sure what the entire point of the movie was, I don't really know who you are, so its not like "Ohh no he's not making flash :/"...
