Anatomyyyy is the way to go. Regardless of the characters you want to make, learning anatomy and practising it in drawing or sculpting will help you understand forms in 3d, how the body works and get you practicing sculpting in the meantime. I always recommend the same 3 books for beginners (at the bottom) and working from…
Hello! Ive been working on this little alley environment based off of concept art I found for Rings of Power season 1!

My recommendation is to set yourself projects with the idea of practicing or learning something specific. Like as a character artist if I want to practice making hair for example I'll focus on a project based around that, or if I want to practice human anatomy I'll make a character that requires good knowledge of that. If…

Practise your speech with a live audience, just a few people will do. Practice at LEAST twice. This helps you identify wording problems, improve overal flow of the speach/speech and it will set the whole thing in your mind. Practising in front of a mirror will help you memorise the speech...doing it in front of a live…
