–In terms of art, it’s one of those skills you can only ‘learn’ to a certain point. Much of it comes from expirence and learning rather than anything else. Take time frequently and do some art, make it challenging and you’ll get better over time. If you do easy things all the time, it will be hard to progress, and all you’ll really do is stay where you are at.
–I really need to make more time for art myself, since I’m decent but nothing more. I especially like drawing people and humanoids, but it’s a pain to get it all right. Not everyone looks the same either, and realistic proportions are a massive pain. It somewhat amuses me how I ran into a couple of people that haven’t done much art before, and they insisted drawing a woman’s breasts was easy. Ya, their pictures sucked to say the least.
–And another tip for learning to do art is use references! Even more so in the beginning. That picture in your mind will only go so far if you don’t have a visual idea of it. Later on, it won’t be too needed, but when you first start out, look at pictures all the time. And to warn you, if you intend to draw people, it’s common that you need to look at either skimpy or nude people to properly understand human anatomy. Just try not to get into straight up porn when doing so… Also, Pinterest is really useful for references if you phrase things right.
