Ever sense i was always one of these people who wanted to become a comic artist, i started seriously getting involved in learning how to draw, even with all hard work i keep putting in, the results dont much add up. i was able to advance into the next level ONLY after it took me 5-10 minutes after figuring out the laws of proportions and how distance, height and width of a shape on a piece of paper turns an image in 3d. Rest of my time trying to copy images and draw them didnt really help me.
Now once that i learned that. i was doing fine, but then more weight dropped again on me and i started struggling to actually putting my comic with knowledge i learned from my head. even after learning body anatomy and over and over drawing the body, like a first grader would be writing letters in his notebook. i easily tend to forget it, or my memory just fades the details and not allows me to continue my work.
Last before you could answer my question i would like you to answer me another one.
When drawing an actual comic do you start from drawing each pieces in one box like adding rough sketches and then adding more detail later or do you already picture how that scene looks in that strip and you just follow it thru your mind?
if neither both ways what ways can i improve my skills? do i have to have a talent? do i have to do something outside just drawing like playing some brain training games. getting enough vitamins or something? please help
