hey Eisberg,
When you begin drawing.. i think it's important to leech off of someone else's style.. I myself started off with the Dbz style.. and then i branched off into different types of art. so basically.. when you begin drawing, try to learn from others.. then add in some of your own ideas.. i think it's better to start off with more cartoonish styles... it helps you not only by understanding basic facial structures, etc. it also gives you a basic drawing foundation.. i hopet his helps! good luck.
(These are just my opinions.. there are alot of other ways to begin though! =))
