Thanks.
My current project is a dragon that will have armor plating with the nailed together design from the helmet, some spots with scales showing, and some parts of the dragon will have the design that was on the knife blade. It will be the most work I ever put into a drawing. Already got a couple hours on it and not very far.

How about this:

you keep drawing like a boss 
and I'll stop drawing before I go blind from the shame.

We good?
We good.

Please never draw again.

Keep putting one foot in front of the other and you'll get there! Although, what I might reccommend you try, is taking a look at something out of real life, or a photograph, and seeing if you can copy what you see.

I think for a lot of people who want to draw, there's this allure to draw what they come up with themselves. But the thing is, very few can ever do it at the start. They don't have the right skills and comprehension to take what they see in their head and copy it out onto whatever media they do it with, without it looking off.

However, that doesn't mean the approach you're taking is wrong. Everybody has their own way of doing things. I remember a girl back when I went to school, she loved dragons. And everyday without fail she'd draw pictures of them. And, naturally at first they weren't very good, and she got a lot of flak from people.

But I saw something she made a few years later and let me tell you, those days spent drawing like an obsession worked for her. She is damn good at making cartoon characters and she's refined how sharp she is with a pencil that she can take a cartoon and make it look like the creator drew it themselves.

So, so long as you keep it up at a reasonably steady pace, you'll get there. One foot in front of the other compatriot.

You just need to practice.
My eighth grade drawing had several hours spent on it and that's all I could do.
Now I could probably do it in 20 min
You just need to practice your skill to get good
