>i want to draw out of sheer spite towards AI. thats what motivated me to pick up the pen in the first place
NTA but i don't recommend you do anything you do out of spite. It might be a part of the motivator, but as someone who's dealt with people who do stuff purely out of spite, it never ends well. Hatred isn't a mental state you can use to create, and it will end up holding you back.
Use your love of obscure monstergirls and games instead. Let that love flourish into a love for art. It will give your brain better rewards. And discipline, a lot of discipline.
As for the arms and legs, if i may, i recommend you look into general proportions and anatomy. Stuff like:

Regretfully i can't tell you just do this simple thing, and then it will be fixed. Art is a science too, and if you want to get good at it you need to learn basics before you learn more advanced stuff. So i'd recommend you follow these steps loosely.
>Learn anatomy and proportions. Try to get the mannequins right in different poses and angles.
>Then try to copy how your favorite artists draw arms and legs, and try to draw that above those mannequins. I'd recommend just trying to redraw pictures you like, but do the mannequin construction first, and then add the details. That has a bonus of giving you a ground on how to tackle other stuff you might be struggling with.
Following a similar process to the sketch here(not necessarily the same shapes, or exact process, just the overall idea is enough).
That should get you around 80% the way there. If you want more specific stuff, you'll need to study anatomy in detail, muscle groups, etc, and i don't recommend you do that right now. Concentrate on basic shapes and proportions.
Once you have basics, and a ground model to play with, you can then start modifying it to make more complicated stuff, exaggerate muscles, put spikes, clothing or armor on top of it, etc.
In general, Proko's videos are a great place to start studying art, so feel free to visit his other stuff if you want.
