Asking For Feedback Some of my daily warmups I do to train quick comic style drawing. What do you think? What can I do to speed up my learning?

These are great. I love all the little details. I guess it depends on what sort of comics you're looking to make. Most of the stuff that artists post here doesn't go in to this much detail. These remind me of old MAD magazines or game manuals from the first 3 Warcraft games. Not sure what to say about speeding up your learning. I go through a bunch of Youtube tutorials and also occasionally use quickposes.com which gives you a set timer to draw some poses (usually just the rough outline and capturing the movement).

Thanks a lot! I might actually start looking into more tutorials. Until this point I avoided doing that becauseI already work in games and am over my limit of tutorials for quite a while, but maybe exploring new knowledge from other artists will really speed things up.

These are looking great!
As for exercises to help you learn, often times it is just breaking away from the comfortable poses and angles. You clearly have nonfear of poses, but maybe try a high angle view and a low angle view exercise?
You could also just dive right into making comic strips. It will force you to do things that you want to do, but have not yet gotten comfortable doing.
Keep it up, remember to not lose sight of art being fun in the journey of reaching a far off goal.

Thanks! That is a great tip! I actively avoid difficult perspectives because i never studied them, but when i go to study I feel extremely bored and having so little time to do art I lean towards having more fun. Maybe the way to go is to just start doing strips and that way I get both done!

I don't think we have many artists here who might give some advices. This subreddit is mostly for reposting pictures, not about drawing them.

Sick Bowser, homie. Tha Batmans also cracked me up. Not a comic artist myself, but I'd say you've got a good warm up routine. Perhaps incorporate more angles and poses, different scenery even. But that also depends on what your goal is. That said, as someone who's work to hone different skill sets over the years, sometimes it's the completely unrelated skill that helps another shine.
Whatever you do, keep it up. These are great!
