you completely ignored the proportions those figures show, like all you did was copy the top-right figure putting all the effort in just getting the same picture, and failing anyway. Can you read japanese? I can't, and I can confidently tell that the whole point of the exercise is to learn the general propotions of the features of the face. What you need to do is copy the steps, commit the proportions to memory, and then repeat from imagination. Repeat a handful of times to make sure you got it right and then move on. No need to waste effort into getting exact reproductions of the figures because that's not the goal.

Don't jump between books. Too many different methods and contradictory advise will crearly hurt you if you are an absolute /beg/. Stick to a handful at most depending of what you want to accomplish. If you need something more guided, watch video courses.

if you have such bad dexterity as you say I can assume that you just started doing digital and/or you are just a beginner. In both cases it will be easier just to stick with pencil and printer paper to do your studies. Grinding will be at least 2x easier
