Looking for some advice and guidance

[Nathaniel Fodrea]

Hello everyone and thank you for taking the time to click on this post. I'm new to the coloring scene and am going for an anime/ manga style looking for any input or advice on how to improve. My end goal with my art is to have published comic work. I know I have a long journey ahead of me. Thanks in advance for any help at all.

Draw from real life around you, life drawing classes are the best. Read books about art (Andrew loomis is really good). Don't try to draw just Manga, let your own style grow while you study how the world looks in real life.

Also, read the 'Tips and Tech' section on this site, GREAT advice for every type of artist.

I should have been more specific my apologies. The line work isn't mine all the inking flats and shading is though. Thank you I'm on my way to check out the tips and tricks section now.
