[FONT=바]Hello, fellow artist! Im very curious![/FONT]
[FONT=바]Before you create one original (character, vehicles, or environment) finished drawing, how many do you draw?(ex: real life studies 10 times, inspiration studies 5 times, rough sketch 50 times, final pose 20 times)[/FONT]

It depends on how long it takes you to explore every option and become completely satisfied with a design.
It's just a vague question, same as "what is a good tricount" or the likes.
but this will help some
read and be merry!

I would say it depends on your ability to concept, for me it takes ages to finalize a design I might be satisfied with, even then its always being revised. Though some of my friends that are into Concept Art takes them little to no time at all to find something workable.(oh the envy)
Edit: Nice firebert!
There are artists that have very clear pictures of what they want without doing any drawings first like marko djurdjevic for example who says he doesn't do thumbnails when he draws a character but that doesn't mean he doesn't think about it beforehand and does the necessary research.
Anyway don't think of numbers when drawing or learning how to draw, it only distracts you from actually learning anything
Usually it'll take at least 3-5 rough sketches (in different prospectives) to finalize the final sketch that you'll make.
Thanks for this
That's an awesome breakdown of many great principles.
