You will have to keep drawing to improve your skills. To learn more knowledge is also a good way of enriching your comic content and there is no other way. Read more, think more and draw more and your comics will be created naturally.
1. Pictures and strength among pictures
Basic techniques are, to professional comic artist, an advantage. These basic techniques include not just your ability to draw, but also story creativity, dividing your picture, model design and meaning of the subject.
2. The ability to draw in comic industry is absolutely not the most important ability.
Non drawing ability involves the aesthetic experiences (Things like what you think of life) of the comic creator, both subjective and objective. If it is objective experience, then you must learn properly and you must share and accumulate your experiences. For example, how to divide your pictures to express your concept and creativity? If you do not learn the method of dividing the pictures, then you will not be able to express your idea properly.
Comic is the pursuit of power between tableaux. The best way to reveal this power is through leaning, viewing and emulating. Find yourself a good teacher. Let the teacher assist you to accumulate
