Day Nein: Sketching one of my comic characters as the base for a painting, he's based on one of my friends whose birthday is on the way so I want to get it done by then.

Day 9: Big booba action figure (once-ler not included)
Tried to do some anatomy exercises and it came out pretty stiff, so I had the idea to lean into it.

Was working on thumbnails for inktober and throwing together this quick thing for day #9. Landscapes are fun, but I‘ve never done them before so I‘m having severe white page syndrome without a reference to follow.
 
Day 10, I've been busy with some flyer designing and other work so I didn't do a lot of other sketching, but I was recently watching artists on YouTube do pretty cool color work on coloring books. I downloaded some lineart and started practicing my digital coloring. Disregard the field of green, I'm trying to work out a cityscape layout that won't be *complete* ass.

I have never actually tried to draw except in elementry and middle school (when I was forced to during art class). After looking at this thread, I now feel like drawing is a useful skill to have to express your creativity, and I decided to try drawing even though I never did it outside of art class. Additionally, I decided to start watching this series on the basics of drawing. So, here are my day 1 sketches I did:

I used my graphics tablet that I used to use for playing osu!, and Krita. I cropped out all of the blank space after deciding to stop sketching for the day.
 
Day 11- I actually did an ink drawing of Vegeta from DBZ earlier but I didn't like it very much, that style has always been difficult for me. Here's some more work from today, I inked in that drawing from day 9.

I am in a similar position as you where I did lots of art many years ago and due to school and work being not-art-related i am having to re-learn a lot of basics, especially since at the moment covid/work situations is making me consider taking commissions online again.
The bare essential basics are really important, and there are a lot of free or paid resources out there that offer guidance. E.g. how to blend, the difference between occlusion and cast shadows, reflected light, light sources, how to apply color appropriately etc.

I don't know what the best website is, but I watch a variety of youtube videos, purchased guides (a few from Aaron Blaise), and ive used this website
Despite that, drawing easy shitty cartoony things is more fun than highly rendered realism a lot of the time.
