When I was younger I thought "only good artists use scratchy lines" now I'm 20 and wanting to start working on learning animation but the whole scratchy, hairy line thing that I've been using for years has become counter productive now that I'm trying to go digital. What's a good method to break such a habit without pulling my hair out?

The nice thing about digital art is that you can just do a bunch of layers without having to worry about erasing the shit underneath. Do your scratchy lines, then make another layer and do cleaner lineart. Work in a larger canvas than you need and size down so any imperfections disappear after you resize.

think about out line before you draw it, maybe hover just above the paper/ tablet and when you are ready do it in one strike.

But first, you have to work on your anatomy!
The face is god awful, the feet in the back view are fucked up, the hips/ass are fucked up, and the hair is stiff and unnatural.
As for the lines, just make a linework layer and stroke over chicken-scratch. This part really just takes practice, and you'll hate yourself for a few drawings.
