If I may comment... If you want to trace something, then trace over images from a picture of real people, not comics.

Tracing over actual images of real people helped my freehand proportions immensely. Not that, you know, I've actually touched a sketch pad in 10 years, but back when I was attempting to be a better draw-er, I noticed a sharp increase in my freehand ability (especially when it came to faces) by spending time tracing over photos. ...But I still can't get feet right.
