You have actually come to a place where people can point you in the right direction

your brain developement is nearly complete with a lot of plasticity left which means what 15 Year olds find difficult to learn will likely be easy for you

Teh Sticky will serve you well if you have never drawn before

You can make leaps and bounds in a short time, however, there are a lot of leaps and bounds to make before pro level but even INTs can find an oddjob here or there if that is your thing. If you learn thinfs right you will see progress.
>ASK YOUR SELF?: "What do you want to draw"
and remember:
You will likely need to at least have touched most if not all fundies and specialise in some to get a very good FINISHED piece done. (Black and white pics obviously do not need colour theory and landscapes obviously do not need human proportions)

>Ps. Fundies are fundamentals (read sticky)

HYPERrealism will take more time then anime waifu action poses in a semi detailed space but both will take time.

If you want to aproximate time needed: kentaro miura was about 22 when he made "Berzerk Prototype". He started drawing early but kids learn complex skills slower then young adults.
Try and draw something and post it (phone, snap a pic, crop picture, post it) it cant be worse then
>pic related.
There are many FREE resources. Ask around/ look it up, search by what you want to draw / fundies you want to learn:
If drawing humans I recommend construction first and gesture second. Then move on to "some anatomy" which will improve your understanding of gesture.
It will take anywhere from 2 to 10 years or even never (depending on goaLs , talent, learning plan, ecc.)

what do i do with these lovely letters ?

A lot of people are scared of practicing because they don't like seeing how bad they are. They don't see the point in drawing if it's going to be bad.

But everyone's art looks like that at first. The solution? Make as much of that bad art as you can. Draw what you want to draw to the best of your ability. Learning art is a trial by fire.
This is part of the reason that people who draw as kids end up doing so well as adults. Their art is shit and they don't care, they love drawing it, and improve a little bit each time.
Meanwhile, adults feel that they should already know how to draw decently. That's why it's so painful for them at first - their drawing is "kid quality". When in reality, it's "beginner quality".

Everyone's art sucks at first. Sometimes, it sucks for a long time. But, as long as you aren't mentally disabled, it will eventually look normal after enough practice.
You do draw every day, right? And not fundamentals or grinding. I mean drawing what you would draw if you were good. Try that for at least a year, drawing every day. Seriously, get out a real pen and paper and draw what you want to right now, you gonna power through that shit and post it.
