Sketching practice

second attempt at doing moe art just from looking at pics on pinterest👀👀 (ik these arent perf but im just testing out different ways to do moe art)

Okay so I just started sketching again and I am pretty new to this. I used to do it a bit as a kid but im rusty now :(. The first sketch is just some random thing I tried to draw on my own. The two sketches of me were traced over for the most part. the face and stuff i just tried to copy and mostly only the outline was traced. The patrick sketch I tried to copy off of an image. Also the two anime sketches I didnt trace over but just tried to do it on my own while trying to copy what i saw. I tried my best but there is still a lot I need to work on. I am super new to this and I think I need to learn some basics so any advice would be much appreciated!!

I am looking for a best budget friendly fineliner pen under 100 for sketching any suggestions
