Once you had your fun, try to get into more serious figure drawing studies. Just pick any one of these teachers that catches your fancy and go through their book:

-Glenn Vilppu
-Steve Huston
-Andrew Loomis

While you're going to need to do a lot of real figure studies, remember to never actually stop drawing anime or anime studies. Jump back to teal's lessons any time you feel frustrated or lost on how to apply the knowledge from these books to anime drawings.
These should get you to a decent level. But more importantly, hopefully you will develop deeper passion for art and a good habit of drawing regularly. If at by this point you want to cultivate your skill even more and delve into the deep ends, the sticky and the Artbook thread should provide you with even more stuff to quench your thirst.
