I'm an artist, quite good too, and I still have characters not come out quite right. I've been drawing for about 30 years, and most of it was spent doing characters that never looked right. People are hard to get right, but this isn't your artistic side. This is giving up on what's hard and picking something easy. Copying images from the internet and cutting out the silhouettes, while neat looking when given different treatments, a lacking ability to draw characters will still end in poor looking character silhouettes. You can't draw great silhouettes without being able to draw characters well.

That being said, I'm not saying this to be a dick. Instead of making this your new "thing," draw. Draw characters. Figure out what you're doing wrong, and find a reference. Draw that reference. Then find other angles of that shit, draw the fuck out of it. Draw muscle groups and skeletons. Draw characters you love, pay attention to their details. You'll get there, it just takes time and effort. Most of my artistic growth came in the last 10-15 years, most of which in the last 8 or so when I really started looking at my failings and pushing myself to improve on them.

Don't take an easy way out, because you'll find at some point that something is missing.
