practice?

My tips from my website..
which happens to have several tutorials on it...

My suggestions for budding ASCII artists are the following: 

                       look at as many ASCII pictures that you can 
                       identify how the characters are used in those pictures 
                       duplicate an "already-made" picture -  
                       copy it line by line or section by section 
                       modify an existing picture 
                       start small- perhaps doodle and see what it looks like, 

                       and go from there  
                       use a model or picture as a guideline 
                       read the tutorials and the FAQs 
                       post your pictures for critique 
                       (or send them to a friend for critique) 
                       keep at it and have fun... <--- most important!
