Dude, no offense but right now it sounds like you're saying: "hey guys give me the secrets to awesome art"
We can't tell you what to draw or how to do it. Part of learning is experimenting and failing and trying again. It will take you years of constant work to get better. You've been doing it for a few days.
Art isn't something you can absorb by having someone tell you what to do. You have to fail at it, step back, ask yourself "why did I fail" and then do it again, trying to fail less. There is no "Right" way to learn, everyone is unique and will learn in their own unique way. (Special note: there is no RIGHT brush or awesome tool in photoshop that you have to use. Every artist has their own work flow and their own preferences)
That being said the basic idea is to draw and paint from life then apply that to your personal work. For example do a self-portrait in a mirror, trying to understand how the human face looks and then apply that to a drawing of Goku, to make him look more realistic. Both of the drawings will look bad, so you have to do it again and again and again until they stop looking bad.
If you feel completely lost and need a starting point take a look here at Sickbrush's class (http://crimsondaggers.com/forum/thread-1408.html) watch his videos then do the assignments. That should get you going.
