Pick up a pencil and paper, and start fucking drawing. Styles are something you learn you damn weeb.

I've tried, and they all look shit.
I'm not posting them, they make me cringe.

It´s not like it will take you a week or so, you´ll spend years to make it posible, just draw a little everyday and you´ll see improvement, you can always search for specific practice in google , but practice makes perfect

continue, and never stop.

I'm not very good yet, but this is the difference a year of "half assed practice" can make. might be NSFW.

I started drawing when I was nine.

On the span of ten years of drawing did I learn to draw that I can say is "pretty good".

I'm not OP, but I have same interest. And how the hell does shading work? I can never get this right.

i'm not to good with shading either, but in the end you're just pin point a light source (either you draw it on your canvas or you just remember the thing, whatever works for you). after that it's all about different structures of the face/body/clothes. some things throwing rather hard shades, while some parts throwing softer shades. the nose for example sticks out alot, therefore throws a rather hard shade. while the cheeks are just a light curve (or so to say), and throw is softer shade.
rather bad example picture, and probably a bad explanation, but i hope it kind of helps.

Having a basic grasp of anatomy helps even when you're drawing chinese cartoon girls

go to /ic/ go to the beginners thread and read the sticky

Less thinking, more drawing.

Disagree. Start noticing patterns in things, like how human arm is similar to a chain, or how anime girls often have long bangs to hide neck and cheeks that are hard to get right. Then just prohect it on paper.
