this one got some very well explained methods to line-art with a photo as a base. I don't use everything there, but its very helpful where there is a certain part you have problems with (especially wheels X.x)

else than this, patience is something important. you need to spend a lot of time on a drawing.

Thanks a lot for the warm comment, it makes my day ! I hope these two tutorial will help you with your work
