Did this work for you? I’m earning my living as an illustrator and designer and for me it’s part of the process that what I envision and what ends up on the (digital) paper is never the same. And that is ok, sometimes I feel it was better “in my head” but almost always whatever ends up in reality takes over / erases what I thought I wanted to do. Which is ok as well.
I also think if you never drawn before you could for sure just draw stuff in your head but it might be a good idea to at some point (or even start with) doing classic “learn to draw stuff” like doing online or in person courses, copying others (DO NOT PUBLISH THESE ANYWHERE) etc, to learn about perspective, colour, anatomy etc. But then I’ve drawn since I was a child and have no idea what the best way to learn drawing would be (I’m also sure this is different for different people).
Do you feel comfortable sharing your work ? I love that there’s illustrators on Lemmy. That’s more or less what I do too, although lately I’ve been working on a 3D short film, so hardly any drawing work. Here is my artstation page https://www.artstation.com/hadrien_brissaud

it helped me a lot but it’s not a perfect science
