Man. I keep having to point this out to people. I am going to get it tattooed on my face or something:
block out the entire body and the head before you start detailing anything. Otherwise you're going to end up with a stiff pose, and possibly a head that doesn't look like it belongs on the body. Even if it's just a stick figure to give you an idea of the pose, you need something to build from.
Finishing the head in its entirety before even planning out a pose is like building the roof of a house before the floor plans are even written up. How do you know it's gonna fit?
You don't build your house to fit your roof, you procedurally build your house and add a roof to it.
Lay down a basic structure for everything before you start working in detail anywhere.
I wouldn't worry too much about style right now. Work on improving your general technique, and you'll find your style will develop naturally as you start finding ways to speed up your work!
