How... descriptive...

This doesn't sound like a style change request. This sounds like a "I WANNA SUDDENLY BE ABLE TO DRAW AWESOME s**t" request. Tutorials make things you can do seem easier; they provide shortcuts. What tutorials do NOT do is magically make you a good artist.

You can't be taught style. Style is based on your own personal development and shows understanding of yourself and your skills, in a sense.

Tutorials can only teach you what someone else's style is. It can't teach you your own.

Nice avy Fayore. :lol:

If you want to draw action pictures (like fighting) you need to have a good grasp on proportions. There are tutorials for that. However, your actual art style is based on yourself, or what influences you.
