    Get references, draw what you see.

    Yeah, that's definitely it. I always have problems with references and drawing from reference, I'll definitely try working on that. Thank you.

    Honestly, I think the best thing you can do is just put a lot of thought into it. When drawing a character, what is he doing? Is he sitting on a bench? Is it in a park, are there trees? Is she in a library? What did the last library you saw look like? What things are in there, besides books? Imagine the surroundings and create a kind of mental map, which you can then fill in, using references to similar-looking places. Imagine it as if you were an architect, or an interior decorator - where the doors are, what color the walls are, how high the shelves go.
    The mental map really helps, especially with consistency if you are making a series of related drawings, or a comic strip. Don't worry that you're overthinking it. Even if every detail you imagine doesn't make it into your picture, there's still value in visualizing it. Just ask Ernest Hemingway.
    Hope this helps.

    Thank you so much! I really adore the idea of thinking that much in depth! I will try to have that in mind in the future. I saw some of your stuff earlier and I was really impressed on how you could nail basically everything! Very Inspiring stuff! Thanks again for help dude. You are awesome! I also could've replied a little earlier but I didn't have time for a proper thanks.

    @Furiartur you're very welcome, and thank you for the hight praise! There's a lot of really good artists on the site, and even just looking around their NGs might help too - a lot of them post schematics, or step-by-step views of their processes. Best of luck on all future artistic endeavors!
