You should read this book...The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards.
It's a very, very good book, and will improve your drawing immensely.
(I posted this as a reply earlier, but that went into the archive, but it really is a great book for improving drawing by leaps and bounds...)

Try:"If you loved me, you'd buy me this book..."
:D
It's truly an excellent book, and is all about drawing what things REALLY look like, rather than what you think they do - which is the problem most people who 'can't draw' have. You're good as it is, but this will help you build better habits and get rid of bad old ones. It works a treat, and the results are very quick.
