And I'm not sure what approach you use, but a more contructual one where you build the figure from simpler elements like spheres, cones, sticks, and boxes helps keep proportions consistent. Always remember to keep these construction lines very light; I woudl say use a 2H pencil delicately to keep from putting down permenant 'ghost' lines that cannot be erased.
