The key thing is practice. Like any creative pursuit, your first attempts will be trash. The greatest writers, artists and musicians ever went through this too. If you care about that form of creative expression, just keep at it!

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

We all started with scribbles, some people proceeded to stick figures. Some kept going further than that, the mad bastards.
Honestly yeah. It's kinda a snowball effect. Once you learn how to do it then it becomes easier to learn from watching others.
It's like trying to learn how to program by reading someone else's code, but without even knowing what a variable or a function is first.
My brain keeps seeing the blue guy's nose as his mouth, it's very distracting
That's because it's his mouth. The rest are his chins.
Wait...the blue guy has a nose?
Pretty sure it is, and the other line is a chin. See green talking in the first panel.
