Pretty much the only things that i can't draw on humans is hands, feet, and clothing. The first two i got them covered (still pretty bad), but clothing? Not so much. I just don't know where to draw like the folds and whatnot. Can anybody help me on that?

I used to struggled with clothing, too, but I've figured something out. When drawing folds/wrinkles, I usually draw the outline of the clothing first, then go back through and add small "bumps" along the edge of the lines. Don't add too many, or it looks unrealistic. Around the elbows and knees, there tends to be more because those parts bend. After you have these "bumps", go back through again and add lines leading from one end of the bump going inwards, if you get my meaning. When I get home, I could show you examples, if you'd like.

Not sure this one's a good example:
I might have more somewhere in my sketchbook, but I haven't taken pictures of them.
