>What is the secret?
My take on it is that, you don't.
Now hear my out. What I mean by this is that you have to feel the need to make these to really do them properly and find them fun. You have to get started on something, a drawing, a comic, a painting, some project... And you'll naturally encounter places where you'll fuck up. You'll fuck up a hand, faces, feet, hair, whatever. And it's only then that unzip the Hogarth book and the references and start drawing 20 or 100 hands or feet or heads to understand it better in order to finish your drawing. Because you'll NEED it. You have to give purpose (!) to your studies in such a way.
This idea of drilling is asinine. It's useless to draw 1000 bodies as Loomis does it for the sake of it. For an analogy, it's like learning everything you can possibly do with a chisel before even attempting to get started on a sculpture. It doesn't work that way, do you believe Michelangelo cut 20000 marble boxes and arms and then the next morning popped the Pieta out of his ass? Art is a learning process, from the beginning to the end. Do yourself a service and get started on something you'd love to do, anon. You can rectify your fuckups and restart it anytime in the future if you need.
