Just started learning pixel art for a game, I'm trying to make it an rpg so I need to get the perspective like classic zelda games. I drew the head and I'm not sure exactly how to draw the body. Feel free to criticize my head btw.

Please embed the image instead of posting the link. It'll make it quicker and easier to see it, and allow people to zoom in. Imgur even provides the BBCode embed code, it's the one that starts with [img].

Try to imagine the body as a series of simple forms like cylinders and cubes, and imagine what those would look like in perspective. That would help you figure out how to draw the body in the perspective you're going for. For very tough perspectives, sometimes I even draw the basic forms, before drawing the body in them.

Okay I'll do that next time.
Thanks for the advice!
