Practice is good.
Also, for 3D, just study G1 Cartoons and look how the perspective is.

Or, if available, use the actual toys, you can't get anymore 3-D then that.
Set em up in poses and just sketch away.

No, don't do that.
But yeah, it basically comes down to observation and practice. I definitely second (or third, or whatever) the use of toys as reference.
I'd also recommend brushing up on figure drawing in general. At its core TF anatomy is basically the same as our own, so if you can learn something about drawing human figures, that can be used as a grounding for your TF drawing.

I'll give that a go.
