good job trying something tricky. GMI. drawing complex elaborate pieces that force your brain to overcome challenges is good for quicker gains if you don't get demoralized easily.
use reference, combine reference, learn the rules of perspective.

This is just to chart my progress drawing from imagination. I do some practice using references and then I try to apply what I learned using imagination to see if I retained it. If I really struggle drawing something from imagination then I know I should practice that using references throughout the day.

Not that anon, but if you're just starting to learn drawing and you're serious about it, drawing from imagination at this point sadly wont result in progress.
Why do I say this?
1. You have not yet learned the fundamentals. (structure, gesture, anatomy, perspective)
2. You have not built up the mental library necessary to depict people without using a reference
Really you're at risk of reinforcing your anatomical mistakes if you consistently keep repeating them for a long enough time.
You'll struggle drawing from imagination since you'll lack the reference point for how those things should look in real life.
I understand you might be doing some practice from reference outside of the thread but it would be cool to see what that looks like for you.
I would recommend practicing construction, line quality and simplifying forms. Practice drawing cubes in perspective. Practice drawing straight lines and round circles with one stroke each.
Practice simplifying the human figure into more easily understandable 3D shapes like spheres, cubes and cylinders.
If you start practicing the fundamentals the right way I promise you you'll see noticeable improvement in even a single week.

I started practicing that stuff a couple days ago. I practice using pen and paper and I'm not really interested in sharing it here. I still need to do these to keep myself from quitting though, it holds me accountable to draw atleast once a day and keep showing some degree of progress every day / week / month. And I'm going to stick to imagination in these threads because I enjoy it more and it makes me more excited to draw.

Best of luck anon, it's a difficult but rewarding journey. I've only been drawing for a year, but I think things get better once you start feeling the form - drawing becomes way more rewarding after that point, even if it's not necessarily at the intermediate level yet.

Interesting... you must have done it by accident, but in your drawing from yesterday, when you drew in those lines for his feet, you were technically (maybe even subconsciously?) placing those lines into perspective, meaning that:
instead of drawing a simple two-dimensional rectangle (which is completely flat), you showed us the top portion of his feet
Let me know if that's not clear enough, you may be on the verge of a mini-breakthrough

These are the boxes I was referring to - perspective might be a bit advanced at this stage, but I was still excited to see that you stumbled upon it, even if it was technically by accident / done subconsciously
Again, let me know if I could possibly break that down even further; even the most basic understanding of perspective can help a lot with drawing better

Yeah I practiced construction a while ago but I didn't stick with it because I'm going for a more stylized anime approach. I do see what you mean about the perspective though now that you shared that replay, with the feet being seen at a different angle than the head rather than everything being seen from the same angle. That's definitely something I should try to incorporate into my drawings, thanks for sharing

That's the point of the Loomis head. It gives you a standard blueprint to learn head and face proportions. It's more geometrical than observational. But maybe I didn't understand your reply.

Fuck loomis.
Anon, you'll improve if you seek to understand the fundamentals of human anatomy. Keeping loose proportions is an easy way to check yourself (Hands shouldn't be larger than the head, for example), but reducing the head to a Face on a Plane and pinning the eyes and mouth and nose on based on 3rds is retarded. For one, your faces will all look the same. Some people have eyes that are further apart, big ass noses, small chins, chubby cheeks, etc.
Loomis makes your art look flat as fuck, in the last image anon sent, the eyes are too far back into the skill because they didn't account for the width of the head, depth of the cheeks, etc.
Keep going op, it's good that you use references, don't skip on anatomy, aim for symmetry, remember you are making a 2d rendition of a 3d object. Don't get lazy, i love your grind.

(I tried shading one of your characters in grayscale, using a combination of the airbrush + the paintbrush, or what we would call the "Hard Round Brush" in Photoshop)
This is a really horrific painting demonstration; in fact, I hope it's so infuriating and awful that it causes somebody much better than me to show up and give you even better advice :)
(I'm really just trying to show how one of the first steps you can take in rendering is just playing around with random spheres / blobs of form)
(Pen pressure does have to be on to shade in this style though)
Seems like this entire board wants to see you make it!

Here's a really awful shading demonstration done on (the thigh of) one of your characters... hopefully somebody better than me who finds it infuriating will come along and can give you an even better demo, :)
In grayscale, you can build up these blobs of form using the airbrush, and then define the form more explicitly with the hard round brush (or in Oekaki drawing mode, that's the paintbrush below the pencil tool)

It seems you have stumbled upon the cylinder - you drew it (I think intuitively) for the pedestal that your character is resting his foot on.
Cylinders / ellipses are rather more advanced perspective concepts at this stage, but it's cool to see that you just kinda drew one naturally, just purely from the drawing mileage that you've accumulated so far.

Learning to shade is attached to learning form and how it interacts in 3d space. A good execrise would be to draw a fuvkton 3d objects and then analyze them. You are improving fast dailydrawfag, god bless !

I'm really really good at "seeing" in 3D (To me, everything is literally just a variation of a square and a circle), but I can't seem to draw humans really well.
I can draw the anatomy puppets really fine because that's just shapes, but blending it to look human is hard to me

Here's a drawing of a pork porridge I had the other day, it's not very good however.
These three drawings in total spent an hour and a half (it felt like five minutes to me and yet at the same time it felt like hours) at my school's library.

as long as you didn't trace, there wasn't anything "copying" about it. what you did is a study. studies are what separates the NGMI from the GMI

Drawfag I've had a major breakthrough; CLOTHES.
Without the use of layers. I finally made sense on how to actually draw it.
I'm reaching a critical point where I'm getting "addicted" to drawing because I'm finally "good" at it. In my earlier days I never drew because it was always so ugly, now I can draw without it being ugly

I think I'm really improving. All I need now is a better understanding of the female and male anatomy, muscles, folds and face, and I'll be set. I don't need anything else other than those few since I'm already confident with my landscape arts.

This is a recreation of my past drawing; Marisa Kirisame and her big ass hat,
If You're wondering why my previous Oekaki of her was better, it's because I was copying the reference art line by line (didn't trace it, to exactly sure what this is called)
This however is 100% me, rather than just copying line by line I tried to drae the base anatony first, then the clothes on top, then whatever else.

I whipped up this proportions guide. It's very useful to know how body part relate to one another. I like to use the mass of the cranium as the base unit. So the head is about 1.5 units, the torso is 2, the hips 1.5 and there's a 0.5 gap between each section.
Those three are like the core of your figure, so it's good to start with that. You can practice just drawing boxes that fit these proportions, and try different angles and positions to start getting a feel for the proportions. It doesn't have to be those exact units. The Japanese style often makes the heads a little bigger, the torso smaller. But it's a good point of reference.
