I'd suggest using a lighter pen (or less pressure) so you can add a final linework on top of it later. Currently, it's hard to make out some parts, like the knuckles, because you've drawn so many times over them.

yeah ive noticed it have an issue with that, sometimes i manage to draw lighter but most times it ends up like this

I'd suggest looking into pencil hardness, they have different shades by default. A mechanical pen would also help since it's thinner.

I'd go the other way and make a bunch of loose sketches with charcoal or conte.

i already have a quite good mechanical pencil, i think its just me

Swap the lead for something harder like 2H or above? I have a hard time with pressure also.
