Quick anatomy rework:
Always exaggerate bust size. Boobs are double God.

Spoiler

Don't actually do this. People can, will, and frequently take great pleasure in mocking people who do this for no reason.

In my experience it is more about how the boobies are drawn than the size of it. The problem is guys who tend to draw big inflated balloons without weight rather than the actual fatty boobie  tissue. I am at work atm but I will share an excellent tutorial on the subject when the office empties out.

I drew an orangutan in my lunch break.

I think the best advice is really to just look at a lot of references. Maybe buy a cheap glass crystal so you can see how it physically reacts to light, they sell a lot at newage stores.
I found this when researching UI a while ago. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/548946642055007807/ There are tons and tons of chinese tutorials on how to render everything. I don't think it really teaches anything you are not doing already, but I'll let you be the judge of that.

Yeah, if you are refering to the sprite sizes. I mean, if you don't have any sort of technical limitations. I'm going with 100x100 personally cause I've worked with someone who used that as a standard, and it's really easy to compile everything into sprite sheets if everything is in 100s, so I stole the idea of it. =]

A sprite size that is not a power of two!? Blasphemy. Hehe.
Sticking to powers of two: 16, 32, 64, 128 and so forth have been the norm for sprites since pacman, however it is dictated by the hardware.
Modern game systems are quite flexible and sprites get compiled into a spritesheets anyway so yeah, any size can be used. However the spritesheet will most likely be compiled to a power of two, so using a size like 96 (32+64) might save a lot of space compared to 100.
If you want to built it to multiple devices it is still a good idea to stick to this norm since each gpu does things a bit different.
For learning though, go crazy. Focus on the goal you want to achieve ie. the animation rather than technical accuracy.
