@Chironyx not speaking for wolf but the last many pages will point you to the answer

Dear gott im himmel, over 750 sheets of practice in this series according to his numbering?
At this point I'm sort of hoping for a "you should start here" sort of recommendation,
I get that I should practice till' the end of times, question is, where to start? because my only current direction is MikeyMegaMega's tutorials and I'm wondering if there's anything specific I should practice, or if I should just "follow and polish every single damn tutorial on the internet until I'm good at drawing"

@Chironyx:

That's a extremely difficult topic. However I would suggest you to start with improving your drawing accuracy, else the journey will be incredibly frustrating. One way to improve your accuracy is by doing so called "Bargue Drawings".

@Chironyx: It's just from practice. Hard to say where you should begin, it depends on your individual skill. The best advice I can give you is to start and never stop drawing, get some references and get practicing already.

If your frame of mind is that this is from just a bunch of old geezers, 1. for SHAME man. 2. there is Proko.
Jump in and draw!

@pistachio: Where do you get your info on the exact muscle and fat regions? I've been looking for facial anatomy references but all I found was super simplified stuff.

@API-Beast
Anatomy guides are just a point to jump off of. They simplify, they water down. Some more than others. I respect the value of that but eventually you need this original info back.
Basically insanely detailed medical diagrams and life drawing.
Build up a great ref folder of those.
