    hold on there, so what your saying is that your good at drawing, even is it is realistic drawing that's still something I can use. any advice for a budding artist?

    watching drawing tutorials online, those can get you pretty far and that way you only learn the techniques and things that you really want to. Plus, its free.

    Yeah, If you've got the fundamentals of drawing down, then the best advice I can give you is to practice. Is there something specific you need advice on?

    well firstly what are the fundmentals and how do I know I have em.

    I have great trouble with action poses when chars are doing something even as simple as riding a bike, or fighting or any thing that isn't standing still. I can get proportions (Okay) when standing still but doing anything else and my drawings get very much worse.

    lol you see my problem, I am good at drawing only because I have some natural talent, but no knowledge of any technical stuff.

    Allright First if you dont have fundemental stuff down then I would reccomend taking a basic drawing class, you can always try your local community college. You don't have to do this but it may help explain some things better to you.

    The fundamentals of drawing are stuff like

    Shading and light, depth, proportions, contrast, texture, exct...

    Movement and proportions are hard to do, idk you could always do stick figures to map everything out then draw on top of them, and erase the lines when your done.

    Just try and start drawing things... Something that helped me out, back when I was actually interested in drawing, was to find a picture of a motion or pose that I was trying to draw, and then try to copy it. Also, studying anatomy a little bit will help too, it helps you understand how muscles work and interact, and bone structure. If you know how a the human body is designed, it helps figuring out proportion and poses.

    I'm not an art teacher, and I only really draw for enjoyment.
    I'm sure there's stuff you can look up on the web, um off the top of my head, there's still life's which are good for proportions shading and light, make sure you put a lamp on it though for contrast. Going outside and drawing stuff is always good. If you suck at shading then practice going from darkest to lightest on a piece of paper. Practice 3d shapes, and shadows on those. You know simple stuff like that.
