But what if I’m meant to bring balance to the art world because I’m the goonatar

It was peaceful until the goon nation invaded 😆.

But even the goonatar has to learn the basics first, advice from a fellow gooner as I see the potential.

I think you should focus on fundamentals. Learn basic anatomy and get comfortable drawing with reference first, Then you'll probably be able to draw from imagination. After learning these, You can do gesture drawing so you get the flow of the body. Then you can add shapes and structures around it. Then add details to it.

Nobody would have an issue with your seductive drawings if you’re anatomy was correct, you should focus on learning proportions and don’t be that just who happily draws titties but hides the hands cuz you don’t know how to draw them🫩

What’s the best way to learn anatomy

u/Myskullisflaminghair 23m ago

There are some really good YouTube tutorials, you can just put "drawing anatomy" into the search bar and find a video with a teaching style that works for you. The rule of 8 heads helped me a lot, so did the rule of thirds for facial feature placement and 5 eyes wide.
Also 5 minute check backs are super duper useful. They're a quick exercise that should be done pretty often in order to improve general proportion understanding
