What I've found to be helpful is practice (i know you don't want to hear that), doodling, and lots and lots of erasing. Plus looking at other peoples work to find how they did things is also helpful, but don't rely on that cause then your work will look like someone elses, not yours.

... ... even doodling is hard since i've never even attempted anthro art untill today ... T.T it looks like a bloody massacre that would give a blind person back his vision just so he could be blinded again by how bad it is

Heres my tip of the day: start with the snout. Picture it in your head, then carefully trace it from your minds eye. Use a pencil.

i agree with both the above, im just starting out at trying to do it more myself, but beggining with the snout always seems natural, which makes it harder because recently i'm attempting to draw a little better by starting with the circles and lines ur supposed to when character drawing

think ill go back to the original way i was

and with any artform, practice makes perfect!

even right now, if what you can do is nothing short of bad stick figures, keep at it, and it will evovle, and improve, if you do not give up

I started out as an anime artist, so I feel for ya. Just practice, practice, practice. If you can do normal drawings, use those as frames and slowly switch portions of the body into anthro body parts. That's how I started.
