>how do I start drawing?
In addition to what the other anon said, alternate between practicing and drawing your ideas. It's a marathon so you need to pace yourself, not a sprint.
Putting ideas down to paper both helps you see what you need to improve and you can always go back and redo them later with better skills. A banger concept is a banger concept.
Some other random tips:
Make sure where you draw, you have good posture. Your shoulder and elbow should be free to move and you don't want to bend your wrist, this will keep your joints working. The artist Aaron Blaise has a video on "using your whole arm" on youtube (not linking here so people don't get bombed by his face while scrolling.) Also don't put excessive force into the tool, and don't deathgrip it. A light touch is all that's needed.
Look just ahead of where your pencil/pen/stylus/cursor tip is. This will feel weird but it helps with accuracy.
Line confidence line confidence line confidence. Practice drills to work towards the line you wanted the first time are essential. Disable Ctrl+Z if doing digital work, it's a terrible habit.
When building the body, try to use full shapes, stacking them around in an overlapping manner to construct the rough form. Loose/distorted D and teardrop shapes are "directional" - meaning you can see depth more easily from the contrast of 3 different types of sides (2 straight, 1 round, and 1 flat/pointed).
The other tip is to make sure that when you are drawing from reference, you take the time to measure it. Ask yourself questions like (madeup example, not for any pic in the thread)
>"how big is the left pec compared to her head?" and then measure it directly
>"Ah 1.25x. What about the right pec... oh it's only 3/4!"
so you consciously acknowledge things.
