I recently had a peak in interest for drawing, and was wondering how I can go about drawing items from computer games. I am a beginner at drawing and have no idea on where to start. The lessons here are wonderful and have helped me get a better grasp on drawing. Although when i try to draw something in the style of a computer game (World of Warcraft, Assassins Creed, Fallout 3,etc.). I can't seems to get my ideas on paper. Any tips/hints on how I could figure out my problem would be amazing!

I stumbled across this about 18 months ago - it totally changed the way that I draw. I think there is about 8 parts. Hope this helps

That's a fantastic video, showing how a Marvel comic book artist does his stuff. Thanks Lance for sharing the link.

When it comes to art like this, it really boils down to a lot of "3d modeling." I mean, by all means it begins with a sketch, but it goes from a sketch, into what you see in games if that makes sense. Here is a nice site that might have some information for you:
