Hello /dig/. I’ve been drawing for about a year and a half give or take, and while I am happy that I have stuck with drawing, I 100% have shot myself in the foot with the way I have been doing it.

Because despite sticking with drawing, I have not been putting in the practice I should have. I haven’t done any Draw-a-Box lessons or simple warm-ups with fundamentals, nor have I read any drawing books or even watched youtube tutorials. My main ‘workflow’ is simply just snagging a reference image and then trying to draw it with the character I want in it.

Now I regrettably find myself floundering around and not improving or really knowing what direction I should go. Should I start over and fall back to Draw-a-box? Scrounge around and follow youtube tutorials for once? Or maybe commit to grinding out fundies?

Really I’m open to any advice or recommendations, hopefully to boot myself into a more productive direction.
