from my feedback and from Simon's help, I decided to use illustrator as the starting point for my design, this helped me achieve cleaner lines and curves in my work and helped me a lot in time management, I then exported my design and added final touches in Photoshop.
This is much better - but I want you to look at a couple of technical things: eyes, mouths and hands, because these are looking a bit 'dead' in terms of your design and your understanding of anatomy:
